In the upcoming Cylon backstory movie, Daniel's role as a Cylon model will be explained from what I've heard. His role will be largely based on why Cavil is Cavil... though we already know that.

We shall see, but are the model numbers sequential to when they were made? Why go from #1 to #7 then to #X?

Remember when Kara drew paintings of Jupiter? How is it that she "saw" Jupiter only to lead the fleet to the real Earth. The Earth that was decimated by nuclear bombardment. Also, I distinctly remember Galactica flying past Mars or something like that. Either case, it's odd that the real Earth has the same planets as the fake Earth (ours). Wait a minute. Didn't we see North America when Galactica orbited the real Earth? Ugh! It's all so confusing now. Perhaps I should re-watch the complete series on DVD or Blu-ray.

Exactly, that's been pestering me the most.

The shots of earth were obscure when they arrived, but they did show the second earth in the season three finale, which I think was cheap for them to do since they knew that there would be two earths.

honestly I think you're right, but I also believe he said they changed the ending during the writers strike.... hell even they didn't know Ellen was going to be the 5th until well into the 3rd season, she had to keep it a secret for a year or so because of the writers strike... anyways, thought for sure there was going to be something more to the black hole other than a strategic base, would've guessed some nukes fly threw and destroy the revelations earth but it was a good ending that goes along with our history pretty well, damn wish they would've gave the nomads ship schematics tho...lol

* 12 colonies find a new planet, call it "Earth" (fake - our Earth) and settle about 3000(?) years ago in our timeline

You know, if anyone has changes to the above, let me know - let's see if we can get a decent timeline.

I am sorry to be picky, but it was 150,000 years ago. Great job though.

And Hera was pivitol,

Her kidnapping by Boomer brings the Galactica to the Cylon colony...

Cavil's holding a gun to her head produced the end of the war - Cylons get ressurection tech (although they didn't, like we all saw) and in the ensuing gun battle in the CIC Starbuck gets the Galactica to the New Earth with the musical notes as co-ordinates

The Cylons on the base get wasted by the nukes from racetrack's raptor - no more threat from them

The Cylons on the rebel base-star get set free and bugger off to explore the galaxy

The humans and skin jobs settle on "Earth" leading to us!

I gotta say, I watched the whole series over the last month and it was very good!

It was like reading a book, and maybe by watching it all together it felt more complete.

It saddens me though that there are no more episodes to watch =( Great show start to finish!

Lol mate, I too (and Rappy!) have been rewatching the entire series from start to finish over the last few weeks, and having rewatched it all again, I'm left thoroughly satisfied. A second watching of the finale is always a great idea. Man, I'm gonna be so bored on Friday's now :(

Also, managed to get hold of the soundtracks too, some amazing stuff in there!

Just reading some Star Trek stuff, and remembered RDM co-wrote the TNG Finale: All Good Things...

"Picard finds himself traveling between the past, present, and future while attempting to prevent thedestruction of humanity ? by his own actionsb>."

Sound vaguely familiar?

  • 2 weeks later...

Well what can I say! I started watching this series a month or so back and wanted to know why people raved about it so much and well I can see why because it was frakin epic! Everything about this series was awesome from the story to the soundtrack to the characters and when I just saw the finale and everything fell into place I felt like I had been on that ride as well with the Galactica feeling their pain and woes and jubilations!

Quite frightening really that ending, we are creating skinjobs! so maybe it will happen! :p

    • I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.
    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
