I know what is going to happen at the end of this season of BSG (Hint the soap opera is going to end and more human/cylons are going to be exposed and I know who they are)...

BSG has been too soap-opera-ish for me from the beginning, but if they lose that and get back to the space battles and wonderful fx, I'll give it another try. I like sci-fi very much, but just can't take the emotional anguish all over the place - a little is good, it makes the characters human and more interesting, but it seemed over the top to me. End of rant, and thanks for the ping.

How'd you find this out?

Will we be shocked?

The Cylon chicks are pretty hot. With the exception of Dualla, I can't see any other prospects.

Well, who DOESNT know at this point? There have been so many leaks and spoilers, its almost not worth watching. Well, it IS worth watching, but I wish I didnt know who the final five are. Not yet anyway.

Spoilers page..

You will be shocked...

Dualla is not a cylon, but I do like Boomer and Number 6.

I'm glad they are slowly moving away from the Soap Opera.. I wish they haven't done it a lot this season....

I'm glad that I don't know, although this lawyer of Baltar's, Romo Lampkin, seems particularly Cylonesque.

They're going to have to do something drastic to keep the BSG ship from sinking. It's so dreary now that we TiVo it and don't get around to watching it for ~days~.

Dresden is great. I like the blend of Harry Potter meets Law and Order meets campy noir.

I agree....

The recapper on television without pity noticed something that I didn't: Lampkin lies in the exact opposite way that Adama does. Adama always looks away when he's lying, Lampkin always looks you in the eye.

I have looked at the spoilers pages and the people fingered for being Cylons are not all that believable.

Did I miss something? What spoilers page is everybody talking about?

For those who seriously want the thing spoiled scene by scene:
http://www.buffistas.org/showthread.php?thread_id=118&post_id=1853

It starts:
"Baltar's trial, as it turns out, is mostly about Lee and his SooperSeekrit Deep Pain That Nobody Understands Especially Daddy."

So far, perfectly accurate! ;)
