How badass was Grandma Aadama

Richard Dower

^ agreed!...this was a pretty good episode, it's setting up the finale nicely, but...young Bill Adama dead??????.....how does that work?, are they trying to suggest Bill Adama has been a skinjob all these years?

Yeah, Bill can't die, we know he didn't die! We know he had a poor relationship with his father, so maybe this is where that comes from. It looked like Josef and the others were going to leave him here, so maybe he'll be left for dead, but he actually survived (and be not too happy with daddy). I'm guessing a swift knifey vengeance will be brought upon the Goutrel.


Also, with Zoe now playing happy families, I wonder if she has anything to do with the Cylons going to war at all. I think that maybe it's the bots that are with Lacey, and their tentative connection to the Zoe program, that starts it all off. This coupled with them being with Lacey, of the one true god persuasion, is what will lead to their whole ethos.

Watched this and the last one together last night, and it has improved vastly on the first one or two episodes after the break, just a pity that this is all there is.

A good episode indeed. Isn't it a little tradgic that it actually gets good after it is cancelled.

Is there one more episode to go?

RolandIRL

yep next week is the series finale

it's improved vastly the final five episodes, even the horrendous quality releases aren't dampening my viewing.

i really laughed when the badass granny killed the assassin the highlight of the episode imo

Richard Dower

Yeah, i don't know WHAT SyFy were thinking?....these last five are definately the best of the entire season, i now have ep. 14-17 in glorious 720P HD goodness :-)
Gonna watch them all again in one session, ep. 17 was probably the best ep. - and they killed poor Serge!!! - you b*stards!!

The Serge bit really got to me. If only he had been a little less polite and gentlemanly-like and drawn the gun quicker.... RIP little buddy.

Not Serge, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Best episode of the series so far. Really the only episode that got my heart going tbh. Will have to wait and watch the last one tomorrow.

Now I'm getting pissed off that the show has ended :mad:

"Skinjob"

FreudianSlippers

(keep in mind I haven't watched episode 18)

You know what I was just thinking would be hilarious. If Moore was mad at SyFy and the fans for the downfall of Caprica that he kills William and in episode 18 makes it clear that the real "world(s)" is/are essentially destroyed and "won" by the STO.

Everything we knew as "real" from BSG was actually set in an elaborate V-world :eek:
All those that died in BSG were essentially put back into the "real" world. Starbuck, however, is actually for some reason like Zoe and cannot die in V-world.

Would be Lost levels of fúcked up though.
