Episode 47 - A Review of Battlestar Galactica's
The
Hub
The events in
“The Hub” had monumental
implications for the Cylons, although the episode
itself fell just a bit short. We discuss Roslin’s latest
trippy experience and the Eight’s
infatuation with Helo. Have we really seen the
last of Boomer and Cavil?

Episode 46 - A Review of Battlestar Galactica's
Sine
Qua Non
Despite
Lee’s cluelessness, we still found a lot
to like about “Sine Qua Non.” We discuss
the significance of a Cylon-Cylon baby,
the Quorum’s antics, Romo Lampkin’s
return, and whether Lee is fit for the job.
We also
propose a story for what might make a good BSG episode
(think “Bushwhacked” from Firefly) and
pitch an idea for a new BSG spinoff. We
also do a roundup of some of the summer’s sci-fi
movies.

Episode 44 - A Review of Battlestar Galactica's
Guess
What's Coming To Dinner
“Guess What’s
Coming To Dinner” continues the streak of excellent
episodes. Whereas the previous episode had a more singular
story, this show masterfully wove together multiple
storylines and characters, and most importantly, propelled
the story forward.
We praise all the new developments and building momentum,
including the fragile alliance, Hera, the opera house,
Roslin and Baltar jointly seeing the hybrid, Natalie’s
fate, and the cliffhanger ending.
The Quorum participants for this episode were Brian,
Michele, and Jason.

Faith
We felt
“Faith” was another strong episode. We discuss Roslin’s
open mind about spiritual possibilities, attempt to
interpret the Hybrid’s message, ponder why the Eights are
a herd of pod people, and discuss what has become of
Gaeta’s character.

The
Road Less Traveled
BSG rebounds
with “The Road Less Traveled,” an episode that not
coincidentally focused on the Demetrius. The Quorum weighs
in on the mutiny, the extensive yet whiny crew, and just
what Athena is doing on the mission. Plus, we debate
Baltar’s motives.

Escape
Velocity
After the
previous brilliant episode, “Escape Velocity” was a
letdown. The episode title was ironic, since the show
never seemed to take off, but we try to interpret what
seemed to be setup storylines.
We discuss Tigh and Chief’s deteriorating mental states,
ponder Roslin’s fate, and state the case for Tory being
evil (and not just “misunderstood”).

The
Ties That Bind
We felt “The
Ties That Bind” was a landmark episode, excellent in
execution and full of events that will shape the remaining
season. We discuss Tory’s transformation into a
villainess, the Cylon civil war, and try to ignore the
smell on the Demetrius.

and Starbuck’s promising mission.
