Really liked that last episode when they attacked the Cylon asteroid base. Finally Apollo gets to prove himself. And rookie pilots die, tsk tsk. And OMFG, is Boomer #2 now what I think she is? I don't want to say any more for spoilers purposes. I think I've only disliked one episode, Tigh me up, Tigh me down. It didn't really do anything for me personally. And Warsloth -- this is a holomessage from Jinx!!

If anyone has a bit-torrent they have access to, I know you can get every ep in .avi format already.

As in the entire season.

It already aired on Sky (Fox) in Europe. My buddy burned the entire season for me onto DVDs, and I have to keep them at work lest temptation take over me and I wind up watching the entire season in one sitting.

Where, How? Please! You can message me if you don't want to send it in open forum. We have cable modem so I really want to know!

I'm not worried about sending it open forum, because I'm not someone who burns disks for people and mails them out. It's not that I'm a jerk, it's that I'm just that lazy and busy and can't promise to do it because I don't even have time to take my own dry-cleaning out.

If you can find a bit-torrent community that'll let you in (I've heard most are locking down their memberships so they don't inadvertantly let in "spies" there to shut them down and collect evidence), then you're golden.

The trick is finding a bit-torrent community. If I knew of one (I'm not in any), I'd let you know. The only one I knew of just locked out new members, right when I was thinking of joining. /shrug.

Or you can buy a nice digital copy of the season on DVD on E-bay for between $30 and $50 bucks.

Anyone mind sending me a PM about what happenned with the Asteroid Attack show? Somehow my recording went staticy right after Starbuck offered up her plan.

Then I missed the re-run last night at 11pm.

I have to buy the whole season. I think I saw one episode in its entirety.

Thanks, X'an.

I gotta check to see if it's in re-runs again before Friday.

Man, I really hope Helo (on Occupied Caprica) survives. I'm pulling for him to find a ship and make it off....to where? Don't know. The fleet's gotta be way out of the neighborhood by now.

I have a feeling that Helo's story is mirroring that of the Galactica right now. I think the reason Humans and Cylons are going to re-discover Earth is going to be similar to what's going to happen with Helo and "Sarah" (the Boomer he's with).

I'm guessing it's got some spiritual message to it, but probably sounds a lot like "we realized we have a common element: souls." If he lives or dies is irrelevant at this point. I think he's just there to drive home this spiritual plotline they've got running.

Crap, almost forgot...interesting side-note about Helo:

Evidently he was supposed to die on Caprica after the nukes went off, but they liked his character (the actor) SO much, that after they finished the 2 episode mini-series, they decided to write him back onto the show.

Don't know how much of that is rumor or not, but that's what I've heard.

Yeah! And his mother's cousin's brother's mother's former roomate lived down the street from a guy who used to wash the car of the porter who got coffee for Spielberg on the set of ET!

Cool. This fan here calls it a good move. The character comes across well.
