We’ve been saying here on ShowMeSciFi.com since January of 2007 that Starbuck is a Cylon. After watching episode 17 of Season 4 Someone to Watch Over Me
Starbuck’s Dad the piano player – was Daniel the Cylon. has to be..we know Daniel was more artistic and we know that his line got boxed which is why he never came back.
We learned about Daniel in episode 15 (called No Exit
It all adds up now doesn’t it?
Hera isn’t the only half-breed. Kara is the same.
How Kara will lead humanity to their doom? Guess that was Earth…

Battlestar Galactica Season 5 episode 7 (SciFi calls this season 4 episode 17 Someone to Watch Over Me
We thought Sharon Valeri – BOOMER – was actually good! that she had turned a new leaf..
even at the end of her life when she got shot by cali – it was just that there was one thing that she had no control over – so she shot Adama –
No such luck. Boomer is a baby stealing Bitch.
And poor Cheif Tyrol he has to go through the grief again and this time he helped her..and now Galactica is toast the ship will not hold together.
Will he tell Adama what happened? We think so – he’s an honest cylon but who else can keep Galactica together?
Ohh and Starbuck!! Her Dad was a Cylon then right? How else could that song trigger such a result?
Kara Thrace IS a Cylon – Human half breed she’s gotta be. Daniel the missing number 7 cylon has to be her father.

Wow! Third episode of Dollhouse Stage Fright
A big twist – the biggest in our view – was the fact that the Russian Mobster pursued by Agent Ballard – Victor Lubov – is actually a Doll from Dollhouse!!
We did not see that coming! So is Dollhouse trying to eliminate Ballard? Or is something else going on?
And what’s up with Echo and Sierra nodding to each other at the end? Does that mean that they know each other? That they remember and their aren’t totally erased after the mission?
(if you missed the episode Amazon has it too at Stage Fright
)

Another great episode…we still don’t know how or why Sam is stuck in 1973 but he is affecting the future…isn’t he?
Amazing how he caught this guy tonight – and great that Annie keeps being such a critical part of Sam’s plans.
This isn’t Quantum Leap where Sam has to set things right in the past in order to go to the next ‘leap’ is it?
Stargate Universe adds Ming Na and Lou Diamond Phillips February 25, 2009

Looks like SciFi is rounding out the cast for the new Stargate Universe series set to debut later this year.
Phillips is Col. Telford, a proud lifelong military man, who puts his faith in the chain of command. Stubbornly confident, he’s highly regarded by his superiors. He is the chosen leader of the ill-fated expedition.
Ming-Na is Camile Wray, a human resources executive with the international oversight committee that governs the Stargate program. Now the highest-ranking member of that division left stranded on the ship, she carries herself with a misguided sense of superiority over the other military and civilian survivors.
The two new additions help to round out the cast that was announced last month for Stargate Universe.

A single issue stand alone story?
Really? Yup that what this issue of Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic is – a standalone. A whole story in one issue no need for another..and it’s pretty decent.
Sure it’s a basic – ship lost in space then found the only survivor is the killer story – but it’s still kinda fun..
What makes this one particularly interesting is the art. At first I thought it a little weird – it’s more of a sketch style – but it does grow on you and it does give this one off story a really cool feel.
Only question left after this issue is the same one we’ve been asking for a the three – which is What’s Up with Jarael? She’s got some kind of funky power, force sensitive stuff but what is it?

ShowMeSciFi.com reader ‘Josh’ knows who Alpha is – it’s
Sean Maher – the actor who played Doctor Simon Tam in Joss Whedon’s Firefly (and Serenity).
No we haven’t see Maher yet in the series though he is officially set to be among Dollhouse’s cast.
It would be a delicious irony – given that we know Alpha cut up his victims with surgical precision (and Dr Tam was a surgeon).
Cool.

Odd Girl Out – Quadrail – by Timothy Zahn REVIEW February 23, 2009

Odd Girl Out
We thoroughly enjoyed this book which takes a dramatic new spin on the central conflict in this series – between the master of the spider and the evil coral based Modhri.
The basic layout of the book from a plot perspective is very similiar to the previous two books – but that’s what makes it work so well. There is a murder of some sort and then off onto the Quadrail to figure out what’s going on. Along the way a few twists, a few deaths and a whole lot of speculation by Frank Compton on what is actually happening.
And again the final revelation of what is going on came as a total surprise to us (the readers) though somehow Compton had it all figured out.
Another brilliant romp on the Quadrail and we’re already looking forward to the next book!

This is hilarious! Chad finishes his tour of Empire Market to the new management and it ends with a demonstration of the new laser checkout system…
And a few great lines along the way including a Doctor Who Dalek-like EXTERMINATE EXTERMINATE!

Battlestar Galactica Season 5 episode 6 (SciFi calls this season 4 episode 16 Deadlock
) Hera is the savior of both the human and cylon races.
There is no other.
We’ve been guessing for years that Hera would be the savior and now there is little doubt that is the way it will be.
No this episode did not have the stunning revelations of the last episode – No Exit – but we do have some stunning developments.
Finally Baltar is relevant again – and for the first time in YEARS he has Caprica in his head again! Baltar was one of our favorite characters in the first three seasons – then he became less interesting – but now as the show winds down HE’S BACK.
Will the cylon goop end up busting Galactica? I sure think so…
Will the Cylon’s jump away? Not likely but before the end the other Cylons will jump back in for a massive battle royale the likes of which we have never seen.
Where cylons fight cylons and humans.
Deadlock

Ummm WTF was that episode about? Desert Cantos
Could this show get any more useless/pathetic?
Sure it’s great to have parallel plot lines but thing just don’t add up at all here the warehouse in the desert business is just …well what is it? Then there is the H/K flying prototype thing – which was kinda cool but how come none of our cast of character said a word???
Why didn’t the HK kill them?
If you missed the episode you can get it here (Desert Cantos
) but fair warning if you want to try and understand you really need to watch it more than once…that is if you care to watch it at all.
Dollhouse – Agent Paul Ballard is Alpha February 21, 2009

Second episode of Dollhouse The Target
wasn’t nearly as good as the first and good be the beginning of the end of the series as far as we’re concerned.
We know now what Alpha is – some kind of dollhouse ‘echo’ that went wrong and is out on the rampage.
An easy ‘early’ guess by us is that FBI Agent Paul Ballard (played by Tahmoh Penikett the actor who was Helo on Battlestar Galactica) is actually Alpha.
Anyone want to take that bet?
As for the show – this episode was confusing and disjointed making it difficult to follow and less entertaining than its true potential –
We don’t have a problem with showing different time-lines as it were but the back and forth shifting was far to abrupt and confusing which will no doubt alienate mainstream TV viewers and shorten the life of this series.
Don’t forget Fox is the network that cancelled Joss Whedon’s Firefly after all.

That sure was an interesting episode – now we know that Sam isn’t insane and that there are other time travellers just like him.
That’s a major revelation.
But what was the postcard all about ? Somewhere over the rainbow? And now people are ‘talking’ to him…Was the councilman supposed to die in order to go back to the future?
Why is it not Sam’s time now?
And how does this all relate to Project Aries?
Here’s a theory Project Aries has taken a whole bunch of people from 2008/2009 ..

The last episode of BSG is a two hour special set to air on March 20th at 9 pm.
If you’re a REAL fan the show will actually start at 8 pm with a replay of the March 13th episode – so you could get 3 hrs in for a full FINALE.
What will happen? I don’t know for sure but here’s my speculation.
1) BSG 75 – the old Battlestar Galactica itself will be destroyed…all those hole in her will just peel things apart.
2) We will finally learn what Kara Thrace is- which is the first human/cylon hybrid conceived by Ellen and Daniel (the #7) and/or Saul. So Kara is their baby.
3) Adama will go down with his ship and Roslyn will be at his side.
4) There will be one less GREAT FRAKKIN SHOW TO WATCH and all of us will miss the show forever after.
SO SAY WE ALL

Our full review of the No Exit episode touches on the plot of this awesome episode – but the intro deserves its own special mention…enjoy.

This has all happened before and it will happen again.
We got more insight into the Cylon in this one episode than we’ve had in the previous 4.5 years!!
Sure we knew Ellen Tigh was the Fifth but we didn’t know that the final five were actually the FRAKKIN creators of the hybrid human cylons! wow did not see that coming.
Between Eillen and John filling us in and Anders remembering on the other side – we get a near final picture.
And there is another.. An 11th cylon model – technically number 7 called Daniel.
This is what we here at ShowMeSciFi.com predicted last year – the FINAL FINAL Cylon is Daniel Graystone set to played by actor Eric Stolz in the upcoming Caprica prequel. How’s that for bringing things full circle!?
Sure we still don’t know what Kara Thrace is..
and we don’t know where Eillen went – likely her ‘research colony’ – but with five episode left we’re finally researching an ultimate conclusion that should be mind frakkin awesome…
and who want to bet that Galactica itself won’t survive?
(oh and John ‘I’m a PC’ Hodgeman lobotomized Anders – should’ve got a Mac to do the job !)

First episode back and whamo there is Kyle Reese.
But not the cool Kyle Reese from Terminator 1 – no this was some frakking lamer.
Was he a dream? Was he Sarah’s subconscious? who knows…the way the show was written it’s totally confused about it anyways.
It was neat to see Enterprise’s Trip though – gotta love cameo’s from the genre actors and the fact that the doctor shot him sure was a shock.
Ohhh and John Henry? He’s one freaky robot…
