The new Battlestar Galactica diverges from the original in a very long list of ways. Among them is the fact that the original included the boy Boxey and his robot dog the Dagit. The original pilot of the new Battlestar Galactica actually had Boxey in it ..but we have seen him since.
Thank the Lords of Cobol for books.
In Sagittarius is bleeding Boxey is back.
The book in an excellent read and actually a MUST READ for all Battlestar Galactica fans. The show rocks, and so does this book. It expands an area of the show that wasn’t done on the TV show and it adds an incredible chapter to the BG saga.
Beyond just Boxey, President Roslyn actaully can see Baltar’s hallucination of Six in this book..which is really cool. I mean what the frak is up with those hallucinations anyways? is she real? a chip?
Oh and Boxey – bad news he may be a cylon. Too bad we’ll likely never see him again on the TV show itself but for now the book is a solid subsititue.
Battlestar Galactica : Starbuck is a Cylon! January 22, 2007

NO I’M not 100% sure..but i just watched the first episode of the second half of season 3 (episode title “Rapture”)…which was a fine episode btw…and now Lucy Lawless’ cylon (D’eanna) has seen the final five cylons (before she gets whacked).
She nods and apologizes to one of them as though she has done them wrong – at first i though it must have been president roslyn but after seeing the last 5 minutes when Kara Thrace (Starbuck) apparently had visions of the eye of jupiter her whole life…well…nuff said she’s a cylon.
Doesn’t anyone wonder why she’s the ONLY ONE who can fly the cylon raider?
Doesn’t it seem like she can kick a litle more ass than she should be able to?
She’s the best pilot AND sniper,
Cylons seem to know an awful lot about her, almost as if maybe they actually made up all her memories and know about it.
Why was she seperated from the other baby machines in the farm episode?
Battlestar Galactica Fan Fiction Contest January 16, 2007

With Battlestar Galactica on hiatus for another week, I felt the urgent need to get a fix and found… A Fan Fiction Contest.
Guess what? It’s not too late to enter yet either. The deadline is Feb 28 @ midnight.
The contest? Lee Adama Is A Cylon. (as if..since that would mean that the ‘old man’ is a cylon too..or maybe somehow the Cylon cloned the real Apollo….).
Full contest rules can be found here.
I plan on writing a brief piece i’ll be sure to post it here when I do.
