Serious question for female commentators: as a thought experiment, with the advent of new technologies today, well, we have the advent of surrogate mothers using embryo implantation, IVF, etc.
If you think about it: if they extract some of your eggs one day, you don't maintain eye contact but go home, later in a…

Freud also said that women who achieved orgasm using clitoral stimulation were less "mature" than women who orgasmed using intra-vaginal G-spot stimulation, because the correct way for a well-adjusted adult woman to experience sexuality is in the way more centered around involving a male partner.

He actually said…

The typical hipster has no respect for human life, not even his own. That's how your hardcore hipster works.

I can no longer idly sit back and allow this kind of hipster propaganda, hipster indoctrination, and hipster subversion.

I really need to thank you for not shouting like that other guy but giving a rational rebuttal (even if I disagree)

"Of course the final five selection process took into account shock value, but the selections should be evaluated by what comes after they're revealed. Not solely on what came before"

The entire point is that even if making Tigh a Cylon "felt" like a good twist based on the "gut feel' for the character and the irony of it......they didn't set it up at all. Indeed, they should have planted enough of a consistent backstory for him that he could plausibly be revealed as a Cylon.

Even if it was a good…

Season 2 wasn't utterly terrible...it was truncated due to the writer's strike at the time, but really, audiences are sympathetic to real problems like a strike....IF the writers are still trying. Season 2 wasn't great but they could have recovered from it.

But at the start of Season 3, it became painfully obvious…

Let's hope this one, you know, bothers to think out a "middle" and "end", instead of the original's active plan that the "superhero discovering his powers" introduction arc is always the audience favorite, so why not just focus *exclusively* on that?

Seriously, the *functional plan* was to rotate the cast around,…

My god yes....this could save science fiction. One of the top five scifi shows ever made, and one of the few that was consistently good until the end (given that PK Wars was the truncated outline of what they had planned for season 5).

...dude, I own a copy of "Cylons in America" - it's a bunch of essays trying to interpret the show, some good, some not. It doesn't have insight into the production process.
"class warfare, and the cylons in the fleet represent this subjugated class of put-upon, struggling aliens that were desperate to find their…

Let my be clear: there is a difference between "payoff to stuff we laid groundwork before" and "breaking our own story rules".

Can't comment much now, but running guess: whatever genetic healing upgrades they've given themselves allow them to completely regenerate a body in time "from a single cell" etc., or rather from any surviving brain matter, so he freezes the heads because they cannot truly be destroyed at this point.

...it isn't an inherently bad idea, so much as how weird it is to make a sequel to a film TWENTY YEARS OLD. Do you realize that 10 year olds who watched the original film are 28 years old now?

Why wasn't this made sooner?

Well, there's a difference between quality of quotes that have a lot of staying power, versus the sheer number of quotable lines in a production.

Grand Moff Tarkin: "Fear will keep the local systems in line."

General Tagge: "You speak of the people as if you were a god to punish, not a man of their infirmity!"

No you haven't, but I would honestly like to hear this: accepting that Tyrol is the champion of the blue-collar working class characters (union leader, let's not drag Marxism as a label into this)....how does that in any way relate to the Cylons?

He wasn't speaking up for "Cylon workers" but "wow, if Tigh and Tyrol…

"cylons are sterile." So, where did Athena's baby come from?"

"Get stuffed." said the Harlequin.

God help us all.

Linda has stated she helps with translations of the *TV show* for broadcast, not the books.

...it's going to be V for Vendetta: The TV Series, as realized by JMS.

Oh. Oh, this is exciting news.
