This is the live thread for the final episodes of Battlestar Galactica!! SO SAY WE ALL!!

[KevinDavis]

[SunTzuWu]

Just watched the last two episodes from last season and am reminded why I love this series so much. I can’t wait to find out how it ends!

[Dubya-M-Dees]

Bout dadburn time! The last episode left me going.. “WHAT?!? Now what?”

[KevinDavis]

Same here..

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

So who is the 12th Cylon? Who is going to fall apart?

[KevinDavis]

I know I waited a long time for this..

[KevinDavis]

I think it is Starbuck..

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

Is this really Earth? What do they do if it is?

[KevinDavis]

I don’t know.. Could be an ancient nuclear war or something in the future.. Who knows..

[SunTzuWu]

I think it is Starbuck..

I don't know. That seems a little to obvious. My money is on Felix.

[mnehring]

bump

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

So it is 2000 years post nuclear war. Looks like they did a good job of it!!

[mnehring]

My money is that they all are some sort of Cylon created by folks on earth thousands of years before to travel in space longer and further than humans could. They forgot who they where and started thinking they where human.

[KevinDavis]

Well that rules out a ancient Nuclear War.. Who knows...

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

Interesting theory. I bet $10 to the Freepathon that you’re wrong!

[KevinDavis]

Talk about the mother of let downs.. What no intro??????

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

Was the history of the human planets more than 2000 years long?

[mnehring]

What the heck, I could always throw a little more in the FReepathon.. I just pulled this out of my butt anyway..
(actually, I think it is the plot in an Asimov novel I read when I was a kid, but it has been decades so I may be wrong..)

[wally_bert]

That sounds like a good theory.

[SunTzuWu]

Wow! That's a good one. I hadn't considered that.

The more I think about it the more I like that story line.

[wally_bert]

Jan 21, 2009?

[KevinDavis]

LOL!!!!

[KevinDavis]

Something happened.. Why we need space travel lesson 101..

[PLMerite]

Right before they reveal the 12th Cylon, the screen will go black and credits will roll.

[KevinDavis]

A cylon??????

[mnehring]

They will find an ancient radio and ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ will play...

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

What they’re saying is the opposite of your idea.

[mnehring]

This is getting interesting.... (as if it wasn’t already..)

[KevinDavis]

Where all cylons???

[KevinDavis]

I agree...

[SunTzuWu]

Maybe they will all pack up and head back to Caprica.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

They seem to be saying that the thirteenth colony was all Cylons, they went to this planet and ‘called it earth’. Maybe it isn’t the real Earth (bait and switch)!

[mnehring]

...or this is all some sort of Matrix like projection..

[KevinDavis]

Knowing how Ron is it could be..

[NELSON111]

Do you mean "We're all cylons?"

If so...my guess is no. I think what we are seeing now is the ancient past and somehow Hera is our Eve. Just a guess.

[KevinDavis]

The James Bond Cylon is freaking out..

[mnehring]

Now that’s an interesting thought, all our legends sprung from them...

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

Finding your own corpse — Creepy!

[KevinDavis]

Think about the original BSG intro..

[KevinDavis]

The hybrid did say she was the harbinger of death..

[KevinDavis]

Roslin is freaking out...

[NELSON111]

That's why I think that is the end-game. You have the gods on one side, and creation with Adam and Eve on the other.

Remember the theme of the show: This has all happened before...and it will happen again.

[KevinDavis]

Indeed....

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

So most of the last five remember living 2000 years ago. Lots of ‘splainin to do.

[KevinDavis]

Lee should have never left D...

[SunTzuWu]

Oh no!

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

I like this better than SG Atlantis or Sanctuary.

[wally_bert]

If I were a betting man, I would put my money on Oscar Madison. Then again, I am a horrible gambler.

[mnehring]

Side note, does anyone know when the new season of Dr. Who start?
