Battlestar - No Spoilers

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I can't believe I've missed this. For some reason, I thought they started season 4 on the 14th. So, how many episodes have I missed? I see an April 4th start date, but it looks like episode 4 is on next week? Were there two episodes the first week on the 4th? I can't figure out what's going on by looking at the BSG site.

So, can someone tell me what episodes have aired so far? Number and name, please.

SO far this season is fairly hard core. The writers took the "Season 3 was kind of boring" comments to heart and gave us the largest space battle yet in ep 1.

I hate this "have to week-to-week" shit. I've been spoiled by seasons of TV on DVD.

You just need to add a temporal dimension to your remote control.

Season 4.5 has their 10 episodes, but then a 2-hour movie.

http://www.mania.com/2hour-s....35.html

Starting before the events of the miniseries, our story focuses on familiar characters including Cylon Number One, known as Cavil (Stockwell), Resistance Leader Sam T. Anders (Trucco) and Chief Galen Tyrol (Douglas). In the beginning, the Cylons had a plan, but it didn't account for one thing: survivors. During the chaotic aftermath of the destruction, two powerful Cylon agents struggle with plots and priorities on the human ships that got away, and among the resistance fighters who were left behind.


Sounds........ unnecessary? But I'll still watch it, unless the last 10 episodes just completely sour me on the series.

The last half of season 4 will all be extended episodes, because they don't want to cut anything.

Was watching the pilot w/commentary over lunch, today. They were discussing design choices. One thing I never realized before is.... there are no windows/viewscreens in the Combat Information Center, which Star Trek would call a "Bridge." Never realized before. As tense as the show gets, these people can't see out when the shit is hitting the fan. The story is told to them through the comm chatter of their pilots, just like on a real aircraft carrier.

Cool.

I always figured it was some "lightspeed" radar, but it hasn't been addressed in the commentary yet, as far as I've gotten.
