I skipped to the end of this thread (without reading the recent posts) because I have to tell someone that it is killing me that the new episode isn't on iTunes yet. WTF is taking so long???!!!??? BTW, I won't be able to read your replies to this post.

Hopefully I can join you guys soon.

Did I hear Ronald Moore say they're going to wrap up the New Caprica story in two weeks?

"I was thrown by Helo's preformance, just throws me!...I'm gonna have to kill that guy."
"I shouldn't joke like that, because we're perfectly capable of doing it."

Yeah, they're not going to waste much time getting off New Caprica.

Spoiler: One of the reasons for the story, as I understand it, is that they felt the fleet was too strong against the Cylons, so they wanted to fix that. The heavy damage they're bound to take getting off New Caprica is sure to create a weaker fleet which the Cylons pose a greater threat to.

And, yeah, the season 2 soundtrack is wonderful. I particularly like the theme in "Roslin Confesses" and "One Year Later." It's funny you mention that too, because just this past afternoon I queued up the soundtracks to the miniseries, season 1, and season 2 and listened to them. Great stuff!

Not really a whole lot to say about the opener.

I really like where they're taking all the old favorites. Even Baltar, duplicitous bastard that he is, is going to be taking a very interesting ride this season, I think. And I'm really digging the 'bizarro' world (as Moore puts it) storyline with Starbuck and Leoben. Reminds me of an old Twillight Zone episode or something....

I can't believe they're going to wrap up the New Caprica storyline as quickly as Moore intimated; It'll be nice to see everyone together again, but, wow, there's a hundred different threads to tie up before then.

Yeah, my favorites are "Worthy of Survival", "Prelude to War", "Roslin and Adama", "Adagio",... I like the whole sound track.

Occupation & Precipice (episodes 1 & 2) are now available on iTunes. Enjoy.

Yee hah, just discovered BSG has made it to the TFP, too. Gosh I love that show! I am captivated by the story line, moved by the music and just absolutely adore the whole thing. I've seen a number of other BSG boards out there, and as much as I'd like to rise above the draw, can't get away from the discussion of the littlest points they get into. It stretches me, to see an insurgency that is "righteous" and an occupying force that is "evil".

But then again, the other boards aren't TFP, so I'll let the minutiae (sp?) go.

Frak it all - looking forward to Friday nights now.

You might be interested in Bear McCreary's relatively new blog:
http://www.bearmccreary.com/index.htm

He plans on making an entry about the music for each episode as they air this season. There are also a couple entries from over the summer that he made.

Well, this is what Bear McCreary (composer of the music for BSG) has had to say about Exodus, Part II....
Quote:
That episode actually turned out so epic that they recently split it into two shows. The second half of that split contains one of the most exhilarating action sequences I've seen... like, ever. I jumped out of my chair during the spotting session!

You're all in for a treat in October...
and
Quote:
The first three episodes underwent some major surgery in the post-production process, even before I was brought on board to score. This is most evident in this week's "Exodus, Part I." Scenes that were cut from 301 and 302 got nudged into this week's episode (the entire D'Anna / baby subplot in fact!), and the battle sequence of the script's second half evolved into next week's episode.

I'm glad this decision was made for two reasons. Firstly, this week's episode now features extended character development scenes that ran the risk of being cut from the show. Secondly, it means that next week's episode is the most kick-ass 44 minutes you'll ever experience!
I'm looking forward to it.

I've been curious ever since Lay Down Your Burden's Pt. 2, when it was mentioned that the Cylons had "other things to attend to." I am especially curious now after hearing the Cylons mentioning their resources were stretched thin, and Ronald Moore acknowledging that "they are actually doing something else that is pulling their resources away from this little experiment on New Caprica; that its not the only thing they've got going."

I wonder what they're up to.

Well you figure that there are possibly resistance movements on each of the colonies. If they didn't get everybody on Caprica, they must have missed some in other places.

I hope it's more than that though. They said there were what, 5 battlestars at one point orbiting New Caprica? It would be cool if there was something taxing THAT resource.

I'm pretty sure they easily crushed all the resistance movements, although it does make you curious what's going on with the human survivors that weren't rescued from the other colonies. I'm going to say that this is probably one of those nitpicky points that is irrelevant and which we should suspend our disbelief regarding.

Spoiler: There may be more to the resources issue, but I'm sure part of it has to do with the virus that's going to come up later on in the season.

I listened to the podcast for episode 3 earlier today and it sounded fine, aside from the usual amount of disturbances (or lack thereof)


I've made a descision to stop trying to guess what's going to happen next and just enjoy where Ronald takes it. I like surprises and would hate it if I inadvertently spoiled the show.

Good choice. I've accidentally (and, in some cases, not so accidentally) read some things about what's coming up and, while I am positive it will still be thrilling, I'm a bit sad I won't get to experience the "shock and awe" of the events like I did when Billy (oh, poor Billy) was suddenly killed and I had no idea it was coming.

EDIT: Damnit. I had forgotten about Billy. I really liked his character.

I don't think they did crush the resistance on other colonies. Remember from Lay Down Your Burdens Pt2 on Caprica when the rescue was in play, the Cylons disappeared after they cornered the resistance and rescue group? I would bet that the same thing happened on the other colonies.

Battlestar Galactica just officially murdered every other show on television in a single fell swoop of storyline exploitation, emotional content and drama.


Television is officially over. I've sold all of my belongings, and humbly kneel before this show. May Edward James Olmos and Ronald Moore have mercy on our souls.

Tonights show was outstanding! They had some problems (I felt) with some of the cliche moments that all series/tv shows have but tonights had none of those problems. The actting, script, music (especially the music), et al were excellent. Battlestar is simply the best show on TV!

Last night's episode continues to stick with me, and it just makes me realize how awesome the show really is. I almost missed a cue backstage today because I was lost in BSG thoughts.

The scenes with Tigh were absolutely heartbreaking. As I told Secret, his character is the one towards whom my attitude continues to change the most. At first I was mostly eh towards him, then I hated him, and now I love his tough persona and truly felt horrible for what he's had to go through at this point. Just a testament to the incredible writing and acting on the show.
