Battlestar Galactica - S04E06

60 Posted on May 9, 2008 in articles by Ron Richards |

Picking up on the cliffhanger of last week, it looks like Starbuck makes contact with the Cylons and she and President Roslin deal with accepting the terms of a relationship with the Cylons.  Shocking!

Comments

Well this picked up in a big frakkin way... And fast...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:04 PM

Oh damn... Starbuck and Athena and Leoben and Anders onto the Basestar... This got awesome...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:05 PM

My respect for Anders just rose like 500%. Stand up for your woman.

Well got home in time to catch the credits... Why is it everytime I work on friday day I have to stay past.

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:09 PM

Oh snap... She's totally smooth and everything...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:10 PM

@Valo I'm sorry, bro. You missed some intense sh*t...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:10 PM

I love that new chix0r... It's awesome that not everyone thinks she's crazy....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:11 PM

Can anybody say "red shirt?"

Posted by Jeremii on 05/09/08 at 10:11 PM

@Jeremi You're probably right, dude...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:12 PM

Damn... The Cylon fleet got frakked up...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:12 PM

What happen to Gata (sp?)

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:12 PM

Everyone is wispering, did Olmos direct this one?

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:14 PM

@valo Gaeta got show in the leg... It was brutal...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:14 PM

So much for Starbuck being a good pilot...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:15 PM

This Aztec Rex movie looks like crap. Why does Sci-Fi keep making these things?

Posted by Jeremii on 05/09/08 at 10:16 PM

@Jeremii Because there's people interested...?

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:17 PM

Oh damn... Look at all the Eights... It's like end of first season redux....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:19 PM

Oh snap! It's Major Kira Nerys from DS9!

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:21 PM

Sci-fi channel = Lifetime Movie network

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:21 PM

@valo Except with robots and aliens and dinosaurs...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:23 PM

So far this has been the best episode of the season

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:23 PM

So Naalie... Easily one of the most awesome things so far this season... So freakin hott... More so than normal six... The platinum always threw me off....

OH SHIT ANDERS!!!!

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:24 PM

OMG, what a tease with Anders and the computer.

Posted by Jeremii on 05/09/08 at 10:24 PM

@valo I had this feeling that it would just get good out of nowhere and all of a sudden... Blows my mind....

And... redshirt's dead.... 

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:25 PM

Um... okay that just... weird.

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:27 PM

What's hotter than girl on girl action? Tricia Helfer on Tricia Helfer action...

And another one down... 

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:27 PM

Oh... it's Kira... Didn't notice that before...

Posted by Jeremii on 05/09/08 at 10:29 PM

Did you notice that commercials have gotten just more and more annoying? I can't handle that fast talking "save minutes" one... Makes me wanna put a bullet through my brain...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:32 PM

We should find a Grant Morrison reference in the last half of this show.... Just to tie off the rest of this week...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:32 PM

Carie Underwood during American Idol: Hot:: Carie Underwood after American Idol: Not so much

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:34 PM

Roslin is going to convert to Baltar-anity

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:37 PM

I freakin love the language of characters like the Hybrid... Other people like the Hybrid include River and the victims of Glory in Buffy Season Five....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:37 PM

I feel bad for the Metal Cylon

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:39 PM

OH SNAP.... That line just sounded super important... The three of the five come from the home of the thirteenth?

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:40 PM

This episode is spectacularly written....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:43 PM

Isnt Earth the thirteenth colony?

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:44 PM

As much as I like this episodes, I miss seeing the Adama's. I hope they show up after the commercial.

Posted by Jeremii on 05/09/08 at 10:45 PM

@valo Exactly... So the final five come from Earth?

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:45 PM

"He got it at Jared" Okay I'm about to go balistic.

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:47 PM

@Jeremii I find it interesting because it doesn't need the Adamas... Which is damn fascinating...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:48 PM

I fuckin love this episode... Serialized storytelling: always paying off in the end...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:50 PM

OH SNAP! Even though I hate when a show spells stuff out... that was good.

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:50 PM

I freakin love Roslin... This scene is awesome....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:51 PM

Dude... Gaeta got frakked up.......

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:53 PM

Holy snap Roslin is going to convert... I wonder if this is some how the plan to acclemate the Colonies to Earth standards? And what the heck is Roslin GW Bushes sister because her mother looks a lot like Barbra Bush

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:53 PM

Come on... Come on....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:54 PM

Bow-chica-bow-wow

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:55 PM

Mmmm... water sounds good right now.... Icy icy water....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:55 PM

Kiss him!

Posted by JediShaft on 05/09/08 at 10:56 PM

That episode was the best this season.

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:56 PM

That last scene was damn powerful....

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 10:57 PM

I agree, this episode was awesome.

Posted by Jeremii on 05/09/08 at 10:57 PM

Well after the preview for the next Episode its on to catch last nights Lost

Posted by valo on 05/09/08 at 10:57 PM

This is the battlestar galactica I've been waiting for this season!!!!

Posted by mario on 05/09/08 at 10:59 PM

And the preview looked lame... But in all honesty I don't give a frak because it's just one scene... Better teased than spoiled...

Posted by GungaDin on 05/09/08 at 11:00 PM

Wow. An actual good episode if nuBSG? I had begin to give up hope. This was like way back bofore the midseason break in Season 3.  Characterization. Plot movement. I liked pretty much the whole thing.

 

But I think Cottle's slipping some crazy juice into Roslin's meds. Next thing she'll be hanging out in Baltar's haram. 

Posted by MikeFarley on 05/10/08 at 02:03 AM

My favorite part is how what would normally just be "We might be different but we have to work together" is thrown into a complete tail spin when the Six just kills the girl on the spot.  I thought she was more important than a "redshirt" though.  Anyone know who that chracter is?

Posted by icn1983 on 05/10/08 at 02:20 AM

I think she might have been one of Ander's people from the Caprica resistance.

Posted by MikeFarley on 05/10/08 at 11:05 AM

This week's episode was Faith - not part one, just Faith - last week's was The Road Less Traveled; next week's is Guess What's Coming to Dinner.   Ron's teaser on the mainpage was a little "off" (tonite?).

Ok... so the Final Five are originally from Earth. Does that mean we're all Cylons?!?!

I wonder the reaction from the fleet when a banged up base ship jumps in on them.

Looks like D'Anna outs the final four... Sam looked a bit concerned. Barolay's death seemed kinda pointless, but I imagine it was there to set up the whole "Cylons are trying to work with us" vibe.

I liked this episode, I just think that last weeks and this weeks could have easily been one episode rather than two.

Posted by JD on 05/10/08 at 02:10 PM

@JD I dunno, I think this season has been jam packed with information... If they'd put this week's and last week's together, it'd have been too rushed... There hasn't been a wasted ep, if you think abot it. It's all just set up and exposition... This week had a lot of paying off... That's what it's going to start to do....
