Ocupation/Precipice - Episodes 1-2

[Double L]

Wow... the parallels between BSG and the Iraq war was just chilling. Thighe was seriously freaking me out with his Osama Bin Laden persona. And Kara has a child... but is it for real? I'm suspicious... maybe a new model of Cylon children... creepy!

Discuss!

Great episode.

I can't believe Tigh's wife for ratting him out.

If there is one thing that pisses me off, it's that they had lots of spoilers in the previews. If that happens again, I may stop watching them. That was worse than 24!

Totally agree about Casey. We only know six Cylon models? It's hard to imagine why they would create kids because they don't grow older, but it's an interesting concept.

I think it is very interesting that Zarek and Roslyn are now basically in agreement on the issues. It just goes to show that people might seem like mortal enemies, but in the end, their points of view are not all that different.

I wouldn't draw too many parallels between a television show and a news broadcast. I know when I try to, I lose some clarity in the story on screen. There are enough plot twists in the show that it will make you crazy trying to make them congruent to real life events.

I take back all I said about not seeing any character development on this show, although I still find most of the characters unlikable (except for some of the Cylons, which is ironic).

I just watched the season premiere and it sucked me right in. When it was over I couldn't believe two hours had passed. And the way it ended blew me away. But is it mean of me to say I wouldn't mind if Cally had died? I'm not liking her whiny ass at all.

The whole Kara/Casey thing is weird. The way Kara grabbed that Conoy guy's hand in the hospital was weird. Hell, calling Starbuck "Kara" is weird!

And how come cylon kids don't grow up? If a cylon fetus can grow inside a womb and be born, why don't children age?

I'm really looking forward to next week's episode. Woo hoo! I'm a fan again!
