Yeah I thought the Cylon V1 were on their own, cut off from the rest, with the sole purpose of protecting the hybrid.
I figure the hybrid is like the ones that control the basestars, only more so. Deanna thought the stuff they said made some sort of sense, that they were closer to God, and not just spouting gibberish.
I guess the hybrid was similar. Whether you want to believe that it was psychic in some way or had collected information (transmissions or whatever) and had then made some kind of mathematical or logical conclusion, is up to you. I really don't know which way to go.
I posted my view on the cryptic message earlier but that is just my view. It definitely isn't clear cut though. It was more the way it was said, not what was said. The pauses between lines. The tone of its voice.
Of course the message is supposed to be cryptic, like the final five, four of which we are supposed to know and an unknown fifth. Look how many people think the fifth is Starbuck (I don't). It gets people talking and posting about it and that generates interest. Razor may not have been a direct bridge episode to the fourth season but it's got people wanting to see it.

4.5 out of 5 for me I loved the the story and the character development but I can see what people mean about the pace being uneven particularly with the three plot lines.
While I liked the flashback to the first cylon war it did seem a bit artifical (the actor who played he young Adama seemed to be doing a really bad impression of Edward James Olmos) but I loved seeing the old style cylon fighters and centurions again mainly cos I used to watch the repeats of TOS Galactica when I was a kid.
A lot of people also keep going on about Starbuck being a Cylon I think I've seen 75% of Galactica episodes at least twice and never got that impression from them. Most of the things that would point to her being a cylon can be explained away by other factors

Oh, and I really like Major Shaw. That accent and her looks are so unique. Wowza!

It is not those who use the term "Islamo-Fascism" who are sullying the name of Islam; it is the Islamo-Fascists. - Dennis Prager

I'm glad someone else thought that Major Shaw was hot... I had hoped that the DVD would have more scenes of her.

Quote:Y'know, there really is no answer to AU's questions- too much thought totally undoes the entire Moore saga. Why attack the colonies at all if they have a successful life away from them? Unless they want something, like...uh...what? Are they evil- they say not, and some eps have backed that up- but then- BAM- evils stuff ensues. From pure machines to living organisms? De-evolution? Gimme a gorram break. The original series made more sense.

Just watch it for the cool visuals, and soap opera- scientific thought does not exist here.
