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.

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.

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:

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. ;)

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By sphbecker · Posted

      All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
