The fourth season of Battlestar Galactica opens and we’re down at least 600 more humans in a matter of minutes because a ship gets blowed up real good by a Cylon Raider. So we’re down from 50,000 humans at the beginning of the series to probably under 40,000 at this point. They need to be procreating at a faster rate to catch up. The human race is at stake!!
Looks like our Big Questions this season are as follows:
1. Is that Starbuck? Starbuck’s back, she’s in one piece, and her ship is perfectly new, despite having blown up 2 months ago. She thinks it’s only been 6 hours and says she’s been to Earth. Every time the fleet jumps farther away from it (at the direction of the President), she has a harder time remembering where it is. This episode ends with her training a gun on the President. Nice.
2. Who is the Fifth Cylon? I don’t expect that answer til 5 minutes before the series ends, although maybe we’ll get lucky and they’ll give it to us a couple episodes before the end. I’ll put my money on Tom Zarek now. No reason. Just will.
3. Can Baltar get crazier? He’s being worshiped as some kind of messiah, he’s getting laid as much as he ever did, and he’s praying and healing kids. Was it a coincidence or divine intervention that the young boy was healed?
So glad to be caught up and watching this show live!
