A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I'm enjoying Fringe a lot. It has a balance of story of the week and overall arc that suits my viewing pleasure. Sad to say that I rarely like Olivia, but my deep love for Dr. Bishop balances that.
sumi, I think for Zarek it was just a power thing always, but for Gaeta the Cylon acceptance was totally unacceptable. He may not have thought that Zarek would do a better job than Roslin, but he wouldn't let Cylons be in control and that was enough.
Also, I hope BSG has a big stock of duct tape around.

Laura is me. And I love the Bishop/Peter relationship.
Was Gaeta just reacting suicidally in a BIG way - i.e., if they get attacked they all die? And Zarek - he was just up for a power grab.
Alas, the "what do we do next" question has been the downfall of many an ill-conceived revolution.
I mean, what they heck were they going to do that Roslin and Adama weren't doing?
Kill all the rebel Cylons including the Final Four in the fleet. After that...I'm not sure they had much of a plan.
Victor is wise. They just bungled it all so badly. Well, Gaeta did. Zarek clearly had no problem dispatching problem people post haste. Note to self: next coup, don't be a Gaeta.
Jessica, and yet, the only Cylon that they (may) have killed is Anders.
They could have shot Boomer, Tyrol, Tigh, Caprica, Hera, AND Anders and been well on their way -but they didn't.
Well, Gaeta's actions were based on preventing what he saw as an immediate danger to the dwindling remains of humanity. From his point of view it was New Caprica all over again.
It's worth remembering that Adama had essentially staged a coup of his own. The Quorum agreed that ships could opt out of the FTL upgrade. And Adama decided that, since he's in charge of the guns, they couldn't.
Depends on if you consider it a military consideration or not. If it's about the defence of the population it should be in his domain.
I dunno. When Lee originally said he'd have to take it to the Quorum, Adama didn't immediately say "It's not up to them." When someone finally said no,
then
Adama decided it was a military decision.
