Why? It's not as if it being season four or five will make a difference. If anything, it makes much more sense for them to be seasons four and five because they are split, but either way, you're still getting the same result.

Not when it comes to buying them on DVD. Why buy one season when you can buy two for twice the price? ;)

The writers strike isn't the only reason season 4 was aired so long after season 3, I remember reading back in April last year that they had plans to air it at the start of this year, which was still a massive gap.

The is no real reason for them to split this season in two, they've already made all the shows. They are only doing it to draw the hype out another year. Which is stupidly annoying.

Well, they've been doing that since season 1 anyway; releasing the DVDs as 'Season 2.0' and 'Season 2.5'. Same for the third season... So they wouldn't really lose or gain anything from that, I'd think.

Did anyone get that D had made a joke on Roslin by telling her that she was the final cylon? I hope the next episode finally outs all of the final five. If I have to wait until next year to see the conclusion, I'll give up on the show.

Obviously its gonna end up being a wait on who the 5th Cylon is. I'm pretty sure that and finding Earth are currently the two highest priority to both humans and Cylons. I think in the next episode, D'Anna will reveal some of the Galactica's Cylons to the public. If not, I don't mind. BSG has been an awesome series and I won't give up on it.

Judging by the promo for next week, it looks like the four will be outed to the fleet. Doesn't show anything about the fifth, though. Of course. :p I have a feeling we'll have to wait a while for that.

Last episode as in episode 20 of season four that will ultimately end BSG? That would be quite dumb since the final five, not four, know the way to Earth. Still irks me that Starbuck isn't a Cylon despite clearly being killed and knowing how to get to Earth with her emotional feelings.

Who says she isn't? ;)

I don't think it's possible for her not to be. Maybe the OLD Appollo is the fifth.

to me the fifth should be someone that is not a mayor character. Why? because they use that resource with 2 of the big characters and with two of "midclass" characters.

To me should be the lawyer, heh. But I dont discard starbuck as the last one (all because her freak show thats seems never to end)

I'm guessing the fifth final cylon doesn't have the same goals as the known four... perhaps he/she doesn't want to return to Earth and would kill the others to prevent it. I only think of that because next weeks promo showed President Lee Adama with perhaps Zarek or Lampkin at the air lock control... in any case, I think it's someone close to Lee and manipulating his decisions.

Excellent episode, loved it, can't wait for the next one.

Though I'm not amused we will ahve to wait so long for the second part fo the season.

I nearly had a tear in my eye at the end with Adama and Roslin, but I'm a right wuss for those type of moments, it was the same in Lost, lol.

And oddly enough, I was watching Idependance Day with the gf, since she hadn't seen it I bought it on the cheap, and Roslin is in it as the first lady, or presidents wife, however you would like to refer to the position.

Just thought it was amsuing.

Apollo is the fifth Cylon model!

And how do you figure that, if he is, wouldn't his father, adama be one too?

Or do you mean Apollo being the one form the original Battlestar series?

You guys, I'm glad you're using spoiler tags, but try to hint at what the tags are actually hiding (i.e. if it's hiding a spoiler from the last episode, that's cool, but if it's a major spoiler for a future episode or something, try to make it apparent, like "Kushan is the final Cylon!" for example).

Personally, I don't see how Apollo could be the final cylon, it doesn't really make sense for obvious reasons.

You know, I keep meaning to do spoilers like that, I think about it before replying, but then forget to.

Time to get into gear I think, lol.

but I agree with you on the points at hand too, that it isn't Apollo, but its definately Kushan. :p

Starbuck would make all the sense in the world for being the fifth. :yes:

Who is Kushan?

Please don't say you've never noticed him?

He's only like one of the bigger personalities in all of this. :p

Please resist the sarcasm, and tell me who that is. I did a search and came up with nothing.

BTW, when did I ever say I was a fan? I like the show, never stated I was a fan.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      If you have a TV in your living room, chances are you can probably just use the Steam Link app and play your huge PC in big picture mode, effectively giving you the Steam Machine experience to see if you'd actually like it. The good news is the Steam Machine can have it's drives upgraded. It has a USB-C 10Gbs port as well, so the 512GB drive could be quickly moved to an external enclosure and repurposed.

      This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI

      Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
