Galactica Quorum #46 – “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 …

Cylon model numbers – Biblical numerology

Email from Michael: I know you guys like theories, so here’s one I cooked up based on the biblical meaning of numbers in relation to the Cylon models. (With the explicit religious ties to the Cylons, and Baltar looking more and more like a Christ-figure, it’s not unreasonable to think some thought has gone into the numbers.) This is obviously …

Galactica Quorum #42 – “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.
