Woohoo! Season 2.0 is resuming tonight on the Sci-Fi Channel (10pm EST) after leaving us cliffhanging near the beginning of Fall.

Will the Galactica and the Pegasus fight each other?

Will Boomer get executed for being a Cylon assassin?

Will Tyrol and Helo be executed for trying to rescue Boomer from the rape of an interrogator and killing the interrogator in the process?


*squeaks, wrings his tail* I'm so excited.. ^.^

Admiral Cane is gonna get hella shot. They are making the reunification of the Pegasus and Galactica much more interesting than in the original series.

I think at this point the only people left behind are the poor saps who watch the whole thing on DVD.

Sweet Jumbalia that was tense!!! Every ten minutes something happened where I found myself going, "Holy crap, seriously?" Fuckin' A this is a damn good show.

The original Pegasus/Gallactica thing is like a cartoon by comparison.

A '90s feelgood kiddy cartoon like Captain Planet.

I don't want to spoil it for people who haven't seen the latest episode yet. So.. DAAAAANG! I can't believe what Adama ordered Starbuck to do. >_>

Really out of Character. IMHO.

Yeah, but I think he's trying to save the fleet. Especially with all the new information about Cain that keeps popping up.

I know, but judging by past decisions, ie keeping civilian government, I just wouldn't think he'd be the type of person to order an assassination.

Shhh. Don't spoil it. Some folks haven't seen it.

I don't think it'll happen, though.

Personally, I think Cain's XO will do it.

Not really. This isn't your dad's Battlestar: Galactica.

Cain's XO won't do crap. Isn't he the guy who drinks with Tigh?

Seriously, use spoiler tags if you must. Imagine if someone had told you about that episode-certainly would have lost some punch. Don't pick on the poor Irish...(though I thought Europe got this ahead of us, but according to what people are saying in the thread apparently not...)

In that spirit-
It's not so much a civilian government dicision, and it was brought on intitially by the president who saw through things. Adama didn't initially agree with what she suggested and only seems to have accepted what was about to happen when he learned what Cain had done with the civilian ships that where with the Pegasus initially, especially the executions. I think he's looking to uphold his duty to the fleet, and more to his character-he's pissed and doesn't like being ignored (he arrested his own son and the president at one point.) It looks like Starbuck at the very least pulls a gun on Cain, from the previews of next week.

Yeah, he is.

Starbuck won't go through with it, not after what Cain said about going back to Caprica. However, the preview did show some one pointing a gun at Cain. I think it's the XO.

Battlestar what? Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis are the only thing i'm looking foward to:)

If there's anything in this world that makes me want to get cable again, it's Battlestar Galactica. I'm dying right now--you people know this, right?

I think you can download them (legally) the day after they broadcast.

Where? I've never been able to get anything more than clips legally, and I'd be willing to pay for them.

But what do we do if we don't want to dirty ourselves?

I'd bet it's sneaking around somewhere on limewire.

Or as a torrent.

Yeah, you can also get seasons 1.0 and the summer half of 2.0 on DVD at FYE or other video stores. They're both excellent. And 1.0 has the 2-3 hour miniseries that kicked it all off again too, with the Cylon attack and Galactica's escape.
