Battlestar Galactica Season 3


Recommended Posts

This means that Saul, Tyrol, Anders, etc are EARTHLINGS! They knew "All Along the Watchtower" as children... they even said it. If you don't know what I am talking about, listen to a bit of Jimi Hendrix...

Maybe they were planted on Caprica by the 13th colony as children?...

Anyway, confirmed, they ar Earthlings. No way they would no that song as children if they weren't.

I think there's also a big spiritual mixing that will be important in Season 4. Remember, Kara's ship exploded, it didn't just disappear.. So her ship and her body both exploded thus she was killed. So that's definitely something out there lol.

BTW guys just so you know (if you hadn't heard). There will be a long break between Season 3 and Season 4.

However, there will be a TV movie/DVD released in between that should be the bridge between the two.

It could also just have looked like an explosion but really was some sort of "space portal" that took her to Earth...?

I would have thought that too. But even Roger Moore and the actor Katee (sp?) said she did in fact die. Can't get anymore confirmed then that lol.

Okay, I didn't know that. Still, the "four" are Earthlings - I am sticking to that. Or at least, they were born/rasied on Earth. They have Earthly knowledge.

Wow that episode was probably one of the best so far but wtf? 2008? thats a hell of a long time to wait for more! :angry:

Edit: I think that this should finally confirm that Starbuck is a Cylon no?

I wouldn't exactly say that. She might be something else entirely.

well ofcourse the cast is going to say she was killed of before the season finale, it would be kind of stupid if they didn't and ruined the suprise. Why do you think her name was at the end of the credits

I put all my thoughts about how screwed up the season finale was in spoilers in case someone doesn't want to know where they may be going with this next season. All speculation according to me...

I have to agree that ones hearing music are not cylons and something else whether that be children of the 13th colony dumped on Caprica or what. The coincidence is that Tigh, Anders, Tyrol were all resistance leaders on New Caprica and I think Roslin and Tori were in on that as well. Im wondering if the cylons implanted them with sort of malfunctioning device? I also noticed that while those four are meeting in the room, you notice Baltar in the hallway briefly staring at the hull ceiling and a bit of the tune faintly in the background but then notices the strange women who abduct him to his new life. Also, if the other four are cylons, why are Six and Sharon not hearing the music? Why are Six, Sharon, Hera, Roslin have the four-way dream and is Baltar conscious part in this dream as well? The other four are not tuned into the dream scope. The only link is Baltar if he is indeed hearing the music and existing in the shared dream. Roslin also gets disoriented before the power goes out but she does not appear to be drawn to any music as the others converge on the meeting spot. Unless the music is a cylon activation switch as Tyrol infers it to be an awakening or some underlying programming he's programmed with. If Tyrol is a cylon, then that means his kid with Cally is a hybrid child as well, which would demean the importance of Hera in the current storyline. It would be convenient that Roslin would need blood from a different hybrid child to cure her cancer again. As if I hadn't already been thinking of all these scenerios during the rest of the episode, then they dump Starbuck back on me. I don't know where this show is going anymore except that it seems that next season must be the last now since it seems to be they are on the final leg of the journey to Earth.

i fully agree with what you said... two of them, wouldn't make sense

1. The original did not end at Earth. Though Galactica 1980 SUCKED.

2. In the original it was "good" vs "evil" near the middle of the original Apollo is killed and revived by beings of light.

3. A new life could mean many things so do not presume anything about teh fate of Baltar who in the orginal gets his own base star.

4. The "5" are special cylons who are not apart of the mainstream and so there fore would not share things with the other cylons. I took it from the storyline that the "5" rejected their own creation for that of being human, which would follow Tae's reaction.

5. YES Sci-Fi is freaking insane for putting off the new season till freaking 2008 but I have a feeling it had to do more with teh availability of teh actors more than anything.

6. Well one child is a boy and the other a girl are they not? = a reunification of the cylons(-5)+the 5 + Humanity.

This means that Saul, Tyrol, Anders, etc are EARTHLINGS! They knew "All Along the Watchtower" as children... they even said it. If you don't know what I am talking about, listen to a bit of Jimi Hendrix...

Anyway, confirmed, they ar Earthlings. No way they would no that song as children if they weren't.

It's Bob Dylan(yes, I know Hendrix covered it. Just giving credit where it's due). ;) Cylons may have encountered Earth radio pollution during the original 5's creation or at some other point. They don't necessarily have to be of Earth to know the song.

Before Kara died, even Apollo saw the Cylon ship. I think they had a rez terminal in it and were near enough to her to rez. I'm fairly certain that the original 5 consists of the 4 on Galactica and Kara. They did say they'd reveal all 5.

I really hope that 22 episodes is enough to complete the story in a sensible manner if it is truly going to be canned afterward. I really have no idea where they're going with the story in any of the arcs. I like it. :D

It is All Along The Watchtower!! wath a huge finale, fracking fantastic, Saul's decision after he discovered he is cylon really put him in the positive light he deserves to be..... Kara was always the first choice for me for being one of the five and apparently clues for chief Tyrel being one already appeared during the season.

I thought this episode was really strong, superbly acted and having both a proper closure for the season and a new beggining for the fourth season.

What a great episode. I especially loved the visuals in the last 30 seconds or so.

My thoughts exactly. I hadn't paid enought attention and didn't know this was the season finale. When I saw everything happening at the end and then that 30 second sequence zooming to Earth, I said "oh my God, that's it until next year isn't it...". I just hope they are not getting overly spiritual with the storyline. I would much rather it be that Starbuck went through a wormhole or something.

ZOOOMYYGODDSSS! FRACKING crazy episode :omg:

I ain't gonna be able to wait 'till 2008!

I know starbuck didn't die, just her viper did (remember, hand on the ejection lever?). and the cylons probably had another one (note that the one she was flying in this episode was in better condition than the "Raymond "Raygun" Lai" one she normally flew).

again,

ZOOOMYYGODDSSS! FRACKING crazy episode :omg:

I ain't gonna be able to wait 'till 2008!

    • 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.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
