Battlestar Galactica Season 3


Recommended Posts

That was a great episode, thats how the season 3 should have started. I guess they had to choose between ending season 2 on a big cliffhanger or starting season 3 on a high.

Im glad they got rid of Saul's wife Ellen, I could not stand her since they brought her in to it. I was starting to think he wasent going to do it either

I wonder if they will bring back the population in the starting credits again, thats sure to have dropped some.

I though it was quite weird that Adam just gave up during the fight. Everyone elses motto is "fight them till we cant" but Adam just give up like it was over, surly even just ramming Galactica in to one of the base stars would have been a better course of action as it might have allowed some of the civilian ships to get away.

why do you think he wouldn't do it?

it makes more sense to me saying goodbye and then ramming, than ramming and then saying goodbye

It dident look like he was planning on doing anything after he said goodbye, it looked more like he was about to sit down and get blown up.

Surely there would have been pletny of time to say goodbye after he had given the order to change course.

I thought that's what happened?

That was Pegusus which eventualy rammed one of the basestars

Holy ****. That's all I can say about that episode. How anyone can watch that and say BSG sucks or it has horrible acting/writing, needs major mental help. Absolutely incredible hour of tv right there. Wow.

Totally agree. this is one of my all time favourite episodes. There were some outstanding effects in this one too and the ending with that tune in the background just sends chills down my back. Im glad this story was spread over 4 episodes its makes it all the more potent when they finally escape.

Impressive ep. And every ep seems to be better than the previous. How can a series self overcome over and over again?. I wonder how long they can stand this level. I hope forever!.

Man, this ep was better than many scifi movies I have seen lately

What happened to the 4th Cylon Base Star? I know 1 was blown to smithereens by Pegasus, and the other 2 were destroyed when Pegasus rammed into 1 Base Star. I wish they didn't have to destroy Pegasus. It's a better, faster, and stronger ship than Galactica. Oh well.

i know but scifi is always like that, you can never have the new stuff.

Unfortunetly the show isn't Battlestar Galactica and Pegasus, it's Battlestar Galactica :D

It was only a matter of time before they lost Pegasus, but it's certainly a much better way the Pegsus went out in this show than the original BSG. I mean if it wasn't for the Pegasus, Adama and co. would be toast, byt the toasters.

Long live Pegasus! And Lee Apollo in a fat suit!

You're right. But now Galactica is the only Battlestar left in the fleet. Pity such a powerful ship had to go away like that. I really hoped they had done something else. Something along the lines of firing nuclear warheads at the Base Stars.

I wish they didn't have to destroy Pegasus. It's a better, faster, and stronger ship than Galactica. Oh well.

The reason all the other battlestars were destroyed were because they could be taken over by the Cylon virus.. Galactica being an old class ship and being decommissed was not prone to this virus and was why it survived. So it makes sense to keep Galactica and lose Pegasus. although it was one nice looking ship.

It survived maybe? Does it really matter? :p Pegasus went out with a bang, literally, taken out 3 basestars by doing so! :p

Did they already find Earth? Take a look at the pencil that was on the table in CIC during Galactica's freefall:

Doh!

Nice Catch...

It's like in stargate Atlantis, where they where cut off from earth for a year, and suddently one episode they have Laptops that where just relesed.

I've seen plenty of "Earth" stuff in BSG. One time I saw one of the reporters use a thin webcam as a microphone.

It's really blatant in SG: Atlantis. One episode they have Dell Inspiron notebooks, the next episode they have Dell XPS notebooks. FYI: pretty much all the monitors/displays play pre-recorded video. None of the StarGate UI's are real.

uh everything is pre-recorded =P and it's not only in sg1

Doesn't hurt to spread the word. My friend thought it was a real UI. He told me episodes where the SG-1 team members pressed a button and something happened. I told him it was just timing. ;)

    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
