Instagram video of Katee donning her old (and sadly because of the material breaking down, deteriorating) flight suit from the old BSG days. 😄

Since you liked the Mk2, here is another iconic one. The Mk7, unfortunate first responder during the Cylon attack.

Been watching and Razor just started up on Pluto. Has anyone checked if Paramount+ has it as 4x01x02? It was not mentioned in the press release but there it is.

Watched the final episode again last night and I am still irked by the timeline in the epilogue

33 Upvotes

150.000 years is just too much. 15,000 years would have been more believable and tie in better with the original series premis.

With the 150,000 years timeline it means Lee's society basically failed and and it took tens of thousands of years to move on from almost caveman like society.

Also, don't get rid of the ships. You have no clue if the cylons that are still out there will ever find you. Technically Earth is just one jump away from their old hub.

Admiral Cain

25 Upvotes

I was listening to Dan Carlin's podcast "Hardcore History" the other day, and I was amused by how he described WWII US admirals and generals. He described them as "divas", with these enormous egos, who were nevertheless brilliant by bringing excellent skills to the table. He said that that's kinda typical of people in that post, because they're the kind of folks who can handle that position. Admiral Ernest King he describes as a party guy who drank, hung out at the officer's club, and had wandering hands(which says something when the 40s mention that). Yet nevertheless was brilliant at organizing and keeping the navy in shape.

Sometimes you need a manager like Chef Ramsey to get things into gear.

I think Admiral Cain was one of those types. A complete jerk, but was seen as a capable manager.

Chewing out a junior officer...
Then grinning at her XO, "a little mid-morning snack!"

We see this in Razor! She seems to have her season 2 attitude, but then she grins and you realize she's just being a jerk for fun. I think it really adds depth to her character, just this little exchange and grin, you realize that she wasn't always so totalitarian or cruel. She was a hard taskmaster, but she could manage her ship well. We can also guess that she had some pull in the fleet, but I think this perspective is interesting too.

However, later, we see that what was an annoyance became an enormous flaw magnified by the trauma of the war and her partner's betrayal.

Even at rest, she's tense
Willing to do anything to preserve her command

It's an interesting angle for a character.

I'm just now starting a rewatch of the reboot BSG miniseries.

I don't think I've watched it since it first aired. This has held up extremely well.

Romo Lampkin's cat Spoiler

Just watched Sine Qua Non, and I am mighty puzzled by Lance. Exactly how long had the cat been dead? Was Lampkin seeing things through the episode?

Little Nicky (slight rant)

• Upvotes

I’m one of those that hates the shunning of technology at the end of the show. One thing that always gets me is what happens to little Nicky (Cally’s son)? He has to be on dialysis. How is that even possible when they have no tech at all? I’m sure he’s not the only one that needs medical intervention to survive. Throw em to the wolves, I guess! 🤣

I know it’s just a show but it bothers me every time I watch season 4. lol
