I want to see Galactica and the Peggy take it to the cylons by nuking their colonies. That outta spread the toasters thin enough...

Given enough itme, the toasters will fall part on their own as a society - you're already seeing a lot of dissent among just the individual model lines - you have three different lines that are in love with humans (or obsessed with them if you prefer), you've had three lines that have either killed members of other lines, or has been killed by members of other lines.

I think we are headed for a Cylon civil war, and then people will complain that Moore is ripping off the American Civil War ;-), or people will be saying that it parallels Iraq, with Shiite/Sunni conflicts.

Regardless, it will be a good story, and it's interesting that it's getting into territory that Phillip K. Dick covered with his Bladerunner/Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, as well as the stuff on Star Trek about what makes one human or sentient.

Agreed. I've already watched this premiere twice already just to pick up things I missed.
