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.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I am the opposite of Victor in that the math problem of Sharon being an eight and the Final Five equalling thirteen never even entered my brain. Which I find sort of frightening but mostly just really hilarious.
I don't think we've met Daniel yet, and I do think there will be a Starbuck connection.
I hope there's something that comes out of the Starbuck situation payoff, because I still mourn the pilot whose body went up in flames on that pyre. (Hee, I initially typed byre, which is apparently a cow barn and therefore a whole different vibe.)
I'm convinced that we discussed the odd math of the final five and Sharon as an 8 back a while ago. And yet I am not quite up to searching.

So I couldn't resist and searched a bit through Boxed Set III and found some interesting insight into the final five when first introduced a couple years ago.

You know -- there is also that thing they said about the final five and the one that they do not name. Or was Roslin talking about the gods that are venerated in the Temple of the Five? Is the one that they do not name the god of the Cylons?

Right. I think Cally's baby might not be Chief's baby, though.

Right now, I mostly find it interesting because there is a "final five." There are 12 in all, but Sharon/Boomer/Athena is number 8 -- which does seem to point to the direction that the numbering may not be in chronological order. I'm wondering Cavil through Boomer are numbers 2 through eight, and if Tigh through Tory are numbers 9 through 12 and if the last to be revealed will be number 1.
There was more mathy discussion, but those stood out to me. And Go Cindy with calling Chief's non daddy status.
Heh. I wonder whether I skipped that or read it and forgot. Well, it was two years ago, so I can forgive myself either way.
Mo Ryan at the Tribune has her usual post-BSG blog entry here, and a follow-up interview with the ep's writers (including Jane Espenson) here.
Read through the comments on that first post; there are some interesting ones, including a detailed timeline that a viewer has put together from all the exposition in the ep.
Did we talk about the possibility that the Head! characters are Daniel?
I'm not sure, but I do recall reading a spoiler about one and/or the other.
For an episode that is past? Or one that is yet to come?
(i.e., are you talking about something that Anders said in "No Exit" or something that hasn't happened and should be spoilerfonted now?)
I believe it was a genuine white-fonty spoiler (a general "fact" not tied to any particular ep that I noticed, but presumable yet-to-air), so I can't even begin to separate what I may recall or have thought about the most recently aired ep, and I'm not sure where I read it (mayhaps TWoP).
I lie, when Anders mentioned that a "warning" appeared to them, as a woman to him and as a man to ?Tory?, which immediately made me think of Head!Six and Head!Baltar. And Head!Six's last stated that she was an angel of God (and we haven't seen her since the Baltarites, no?)
