Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Well, I'm sure that Boomer thought that she was in love with Tyrol, of course, she was completely unaware that she was a cylon.
Hmmm, September 23rd -- it's unlikely that I'll be watching or taping Sam Witwer in "Inconceivable" because not only is it the premiere of "Numb3rs" but it's most likely the airdate of the final BSG 'til January. I'm guessing we're in for a mega-evil cliffhanger of some sort.
My totally unspoiled, and somewhat off-the-wall but still vaguely possible suggestion for the cliffhanger: we get some fairly convincing proof that Adama may well be a Cylon....
If Adama's a Cylon, then who is Lee's real father? (If it were Cylon!Adama, presumably they'd already know they could cross-breed, right?)
Are you thinking that there are actual people that the Cylons clone and then replace with the cylon-version?

I was thinking that earlier in the series, but I haven't seen any evidence for it. They've got Starbuck's DNA, now, I'm expecting her to be copied at some point.
I think the cylons are a steaming heap of signifiers desperately in search of a referend.

No, because all the evidence we've seen suggests that human-model Cylons are original beings, not copies of preexisting humans.
Which is why I think Adama's not a Cylon -- he's got a son. The Cylons wouldn't be so obsessed with human-Cylon cross-breeding if they'd already done it.

What evidence? I'll grant a lack of evidence for copies, but I can't recall any evidence for original beings.
Caprica!Boomer seemed pretty clear that she was Sharon, not a copy with Sharon's memories. I don't think we have any reason to disbelieve her, or any reason to assume she's unique.
