Did I kill this thread?

Is there no more interest in talking about BSG?





I've been rewatching BSG as it airs over here in Australia. Last nights episode was the one with the toilet escene with Baltar and Lt Gaetor. That scene cracks me up!

The two men sitting on toilets
Baltar: "So, hows it going over there?"
---
When Gaetor runs away and Baltar rushes out of his toilet saying "Wait!!... you havent even washed your hands!"

I like Baltar, he aint all bad. After all he didnt deliberately kill the human race. He is in a pretty pickle though..

#6 (the blond chick in Baltar's head) drives me mad. even more than she apparently manages to drive Baltar mad and he seems pretty nuts sometimes.

I've watched the special features on the miniseries dvd and they said they were going for 'likeable despite being evil' or something to that effect with #6. that they have gloriously failed with me. I hate her with a passion. most of the time even sympathising with Baltar even though he really is a moron.



Phewww! I thought I was the only one thinking that. The only think "likeable" about #6 is her bod, but I tend not to classify that as "like"...

(PS: And what's this about Boomer shooting Adama? Must be in a future episode for us here.)

(Message Edited: sorry, messy post. Also silly question now deleted.)

OK,

Where'd everybody go? I hope it's not something I said.

It's all so quiet on this thread, but that's not the reason for this post...

I'm curious to find out where everyone's up to in different parts of the world, with the series. Which episode did you just see this week? Here in Australia, I think we've only just started, as Calhoun pointed out. I don't mind spoilers, if you don't.

While we're at it, what's everyone's favourite? Mine was the one where Starbuck was lost and found a way to come back with the cylon ship. Apart from shoving some cloth into the gap on the ship to keep it airtight (which is a bit unbelievable), this episode and the one preceding it (when she was struggling with the training of rookie pilots) would have to be my favourites so far.

I think this is partly due to the great space sequences, but also to the very strong and believable Starbuck character.

My least favourites are the ones with Baltar and #6. I guess I'm finding it hard to absorb the concept of such a vivid hallucination. She just looks too real, but then that's how Baltar sees her, I guess.

A good day to you all. And thanks for great posts.

You dont like Baltar! Bah..


I reckon Adama is pretty cool too, he is totally convincing to me as a Battlestar commander.

Maybe I'm a bit harsh. Sorry.

I do sometimes feel for him, but I think I've missed something in the pilot. How did he come to get #6 in his head?

Adama is great. He is gritty and strong. Doesn't take any bull. I wish I had a boss like that.

Baltar seems to think that #6 is simply a part of his psyche, and something his own mind's conjured up (perhaps to help deal with his guilt in royally screwing over the human race). Call it another personality. I'm more inclined to think that it's something #6 did to him or put in him, and that she's not simply a figment of his imagination but that her personality is actually inside his noggin.

Or I might just be drunk.

Does Blue Sun sponser the Blue Man Group?

I tend to think that too. #6 seems just to purposeful to be just a figment of his imagination. Maybe it'll be revealed as a flashback later.

I don't think you're drunk. Made a lot of sense.

Hm, just a quick question to folks:

I don't get Space, so I've been relying on downloaded eps to get my BSG fix (using Azureus and tvtorrents.tv). TvTorrents looks to be down again, so I was wondering if someone had any other suggestions for a Torrent site with eps 9 onwards?

Man, I wish they'd come out on DVD already, lol.
