It's about time. I hope Friday's episode is good (as always).

Hupp: Thanks for that link. Non-US users always get screwed over with online episodes/webisodes. Not anymore! I shall do my part in spreading the word.

I think there are only 10 episodes left. Also, with all the You Will Know trailers, do you think they're going to reveal the identity of the 5th cylon on Friday or wait a few episodes?

I figure they'll reveal it towards the end of the season, because Moore likes to be a jerk like that :p

From one of the Season 4.5 preview commercials, it is revealed that Saul Tigh finds out who the fifth/final Cylon is. He did seem kind of shocked... :o

I just hope Gaeta isn't the final Cylon, because they made it too obvious so far with the webisodes.

At last, they?ve come for me. I feel their lives, their destinies spilling out before me.

The denial of the one true path, played out on a world not their own, will end soon enough.

Soon there will be four, glorious in awakening, struggling with the knowledge of their true selves.

The pain of revelation bringing new clarity and in the midst of confusion, he will find her. Enemies brought together by impossible longing.

Enemies now joined as one. The way forward at once unthinkable, yet inevitable.

And the fifth, still in shadow, will claw toward the light, hungering for redemption that will only come in the howl of terrible suffering.b>

I can see them all. The seven, now six, self-described machines who believe themselves without sin. But in time, it is sin that will consume them. They will know enmity, bitterness, the wrenching agony of one splintering into many.

And then, they will join the promised land, gathered on the wings of an angel. Not an end, but a beginning.i>

We now know what Gaeta would want redemption for:p:p But, I hope its not him - seems to easy of a choice.

Maybe I have missed the convo on this, but on one of the trailers for "4.5" as it is being called, someone says "I remember everything"

Voice sounds familiar, maybe he is the final cylon.

I think it sounded like Anders or Tyrol, probably remembered why they left Earth for the Twelve Colonies.

Also, more clues on 5th Cylon...

Things we all want to know, and will get a definite answer from the remaining episodes according to Moore.

Q: I'm wondering, without you giving it away, whether these things are going to be addressed or whether these are things that we're thinking a lot more about than you were.

RM: Do you have a list?

Q: Yeah.

RM: Okay.

Q: Obviously, the identity of the final Cylon, we will find this out?

RM: Yeah.

Q: The origin and nature of the Final Four and how they're different from the rest of them?

RM: Yes.

Q: The origin of the rest of the skinjobs?

RM: Yes.

Q: What happened to Earth and what happened to the 13th Colony?

RM: Yes.

Q: Who, if anyone, is orchestrating all of this?

RM: Basically, yeah. I don't know if it's going to be wrapped up in a neat bow. The show has an answer for it, whether it's a satisfying answer, I don't know.

Q: Will "All this has happened before and it will happen again" be explained in some way?

RM: Yes.

Q: The opera house?

RM: Yes.

Q: What happened to Kara when she went through the Malestrom?

RM: Pretty much.

Q: Identity and nature of the "head" characters?

RM: Yes.

Q: Tigh and Six's baby, and whether that means Cylons can breed?

RM: Yes. That's not a "yes" to whether they can breed -- the question will be answered.

Q: The fate of Boomer and whether there are other 1's, 4's and 5's floating out there?

RM: Yes.

Q: Roslin's health?

RM: Yes.

Q: Okay, that's a "yes" on all of them.

RM: See? We knew what all the questions were! I'm kind of proud of myself. "Yes"es to all of them. I thought you were going to throw a curve at me, like, "Oh, (bleep)."

Q: You said there's a part of you that wished you had done what David Chase did with "The Sopranos." How do you want, or how do you expect, people to react when we get to the end of this?

RM: I hope it's satisfying. Ultimately, I hope it's satisfying. This one is a closed-end story to an extent, setting aside "Caprica" for the moment. It's a beginning, middle and end, "Battlestar Galactica." This big story, how it all began, the apocalypse of the 12 Colonies, then the journey, and then they get here. This is the end of all these characters that you have come to know and love. I really wanted it to be satisfying and answer questions that the audience has asked for a long time. I wanted them to like the answers, or at least appreciate the answers, that thought was given to them. At the end, you can say goodbye to the characters as you're saying goodbye to the show, and there's not a dry eye in the house.

Judging from the webisodes, I'd say the final Cylon is Felix Gaeta. It just feels too obvious though and my instincts are telling that it can't be that easy. I mean, why would they create so much mystery around the fifth and final Cylon only to reveal his identity in a bunch of webisodes? I'm beginning to think he's a "scapegoat". Anyway, the voice in the trailer that says "I remember now" must be a survivor on Earth. Maybe the final Cylon is a former inhabitant of Earth, before it became a lifeless rock full of ruined skyscrapers and buildings.

The logical conclusion would be one of the four Cylons saying he remembers. In one of the 4.5 previews Anders asks Chief if he remembered something, so I would say it's one of the three males, probably Saul, given the roughness of the voice.

They are making it painfully obvious in the clues that it is Gaeta, which is exactly why I do not think it is him.

I'm going to stick by my original guess that it is Lt. Anastasia Dualla (Adama).

If we want to hold the show to its word, it's no one in the fleet.

D'anna could have been lying tho.

The problem is who :

Would be hungering for redemption and not be in the fleet?

The only ones I can think of is Jammer who got air locked in the Collaborators episode because he collaborated with the cylons when they occupied new caprica.

or ....

Ellen Tigh. She wouldn't be in the fleet and would probably want redemption for giving info to the cylons in exchange for helping out Saul Tigh.

I haven't seen the latests set of webisodes so i cannot say about Geata, but would seem from what people are saying, a cop out. Plus why wouldn't Geata have activated like the other 4 on the Galactica.

My personal belief however still remains, Tom Zerek!

could someone sum up the story of the webisodes please?

thank you

Baltar was telling the truth about Gaeta all along. He too was responsible for the death of thousands on New Caprica.

During the occupation, #8 model tricked Gaeta into giving her names of people to "save" from the camps, but in actuality the Cylons were killing off majority of the people on those lists Gaeta provided.

If you don't watch the next episode of Battlestar Galactica when it airs live on Friday, you could pay a terrible price. The episode will run a few minutes long.

It's happened to all of us ? a show goes over the allotted time-limit and you're stuck never actually knowing who's the murderer on Pushing Daisies. Or worse, if Heidi and Spencer really did get married for reals? Then comes the swearing and the screaming and the breaking of objects because your recorder cut off at the crucial last few minutes, leaving you without answers or closure.So be warned ,BSG fans ? this weeks' Friday premiere will run OVER 3 and a half minutes. Don't be a victim ? set your recording devices correctly. . /

    • Xbox Insiders get Xbox 360 achievements and Gamertag character upgrades

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Xbox Insiders get Xbox 360 achievements and Gamertag character upgrades by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft is continuing its fast-paced update schedule for Xbox Insiders. Today, the company announced a new slate of features it is rolling out to Xbox Insiders in the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring, which includes an expansion to the gamertag system, Xbox 360 achievements, and more. The unique Gamertag that Xbox users can choose for their profile is getting more characters. Instead of the 12-character limit, Insiders will now be able to get a Gamertag that's 15 characters long. The 12-character limit will still apply to Gamertags that are not unique or contain any non-Latin characters. Meanwhile, Microsoft is adding Xbox 360 game support to its Game Hubs. Selecting an installed Xbox 360 game on a modern Xbox console will now show achievement progress, captures, and other information. Achievement pop-ups are back for these classics too, which should be good news for achievement hunters. The next change is for Xbox players who can't wait to jump into their games when an update is required. "If a game requires an update and is available to stream through your Game Pass membership, you can start playing immediately with cloud gaming while the update downloads in the background," explains Microsoft. The final change of this Insider update is once again to the game cards. Insiders will find that all games, both released and upcoming, will now have a simple button to add to their profile's wishlist, making the process much easier from a single place. This Xbox update is rolling out today to Insiders in the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring. As usual, Microsoft aims to bring it to more Insiders over time before they reach all Xbox owners. Head here to find out how to join the Xbox Insider Program to get a chance to test these features and upcoming ones on both consoles and PC.
