Yep. Just like the 6 in Baltar's head and the Baltar in Caprica 6's head. Which was very retarded.

Eh, the whole mythology stuff wasn't great but all the characters got nice endings. It was like Lost, except actually good because BSG was actually about the characters and not about teasing our mythos boners for six years.
>>
>>71303997

The entire reason for cylon/human possibility happened at the colony, human intuition and efficiency of machines in tandem.
>>
>>71299458
Starbuck's role was originally that of a guy's. So if you think of Starbuck as being transgender, her character makes sense.

Admiral Adama was always fun to watch.
His best moments were probably when he got the temper shakes when Starbuck told him she was responsible for Zack's death and when he just completely fucking lost his shit when he found out his best friend of over 30 years was a cylon

>>71304441
if she's so based why is she dead?
>>
>>71304441

Took more risks but ultimately she is a short term thinker if she killed off the fleet that had been supporting her.

Without Adama saving humanity there would be no more humanity and a galaxy full of machines.

With all military goals, what is your desired end state. Cain is a short sighted risk taker that kharma came back to fuck her.
>>
>>71304560
All because of Gaius frakking Baltar
>>
>>71304608

They could have killed the six that they captured or treated it better. Adama using Athena to go after cylons = forward thinking and using intelligence asset

Cain basically turned their six into the ship's fuck doll.

Gaeta did nothing wrong
>>
>>71305216
He was a traitor, but a lot of that was Adama's and Starbuck's fault.
>>
>>71305287
He was absolutely right when he said that Adama wasn't the same man he was 4 years ago and that he'd let his affection for a cylon could his judgement
>>
>>71305388

Adama protecting Athena and the other cylons that joined them actually saved humanity, and while prejudice the remnant displayed was warranted because of previous cylon actions, that alliance helped save all.

>calling the most loyal and dedicated officer in the fleet who only ever did his job and suffered for it a remnant
>>
>>71305614

I meant all of humanity, I am saying prejudice they displayed towards cylons understandable but ultimately Adama was right. Even if he felt injustice done to human loyalists as a crime of their behavior and consequences of siding with more cylons as a bridge too far, what was left of humanity was a remnant of what they were, not merely gaeta.

Also gaeta's lament is a great semi-operatic tune.

I'll agree with you there. That song he was singing in sickbay was goddamn beautiful

>That early episode where the Cylon fleet jumps in to attack every 11 minutes

The military parts of BSG were so good
>>
>>71306381
It's also why Season 2 is the best
>>
>>71305045
Boomer was easily the most complex character on the show. She was a cylon who was unaware of her real identity and scared of what she was being forced to do without realizing then. Then, when she did find out, she completely rejected reality and kept on trying to be human because of her experiences and life until the war. For some reason, the writers decided to abandon her story and turn her into a poorly motivated villain, but that doesn't mean she was a bad character. Hell, if the show went through with her arc (which eventually became part of the point of the whole series - relations between humans and cylons), it would have done the series as a whole a lot of good, instead of just relying on cheap religious plot devices and twists.

I think they also liked Athena's story better and out of all of 8's 'arcs' they felt giving that story more primacy and what bound humanity/cylons together and I think they even admitted that they let boomer fall to wayside..I also think execs worried people would be confused if they used different prime 8 arcs or more than one so one episode is focused on boomer and others on athena etc, so they made a conscious choice to only use one and others as kind of plot devices like destroying the hub and revenge plot at the end.

I think they made the right choice, Boomer made the best choice for herself because she could never go back to humans, not after almost killing adama so there was no redemption there.

They mirror'd this by athena putting her life on the line for humanity.

Athena was the opposite of boomer and betrayed the cylons and also saved the cylons but if you remember the beacon episode in season 3, she was going to allow cylon's to die..which no human would allow to happen. We've gutted our planet trying to save ourselves so I don't believe for a minute we would let that happen..so there is kind of a greatness in her character.

That episode (the first episode after the miniseries) was the best way to start the show, but they could never really top it since it was so good.

The tension was just so fucking real.
>>
>>71305045
Boomer/Athena is easily the best thing about BSG. The way their arcs mirror each other is genius, and Grace Park can fucking act
>>
>>71307622

it really is and people don't realize it either but I think a lot of guys projected onto Helo which I'm not sure if that was on purpose or a happy accident but that made it probably most digestible of all the storylines.
