Yeah, I kind of felt they had gotten back on course with Razor. 

Well, I hope so anyway.

I hope everyone's a Cylon!

1. Number Six/Shelly Godfrey/Gina Inviere/Natalie
2. Aaron Doral (Number Five)
3. Sharon/Boomer Vallerii/Agathon
4. Loeben Conoy
5. Simon
6. D'Anna Biers (Number Three)
7. Brother Cavil
8. Galen "Chief" Tyrol
9. Saul Tigh
10. Samuel Anders
11. Tory Foster

Top picks for the last Cylon:
1. Ellen Tigh. She fits my idea of the Cylon profile, but it's doubtful she's a Cylon next to Tigh.
2. Anastasia "Dee" Dualla. Her name literally means "resurrection." But that's too easy, right?
3. Boxey. I'm reaching.
4. Admiral Helena Cain. Why wouldn't Michelle Forbes be a Cylon.

~They say it's someone who's been there from the beginning, which would sorta rule out Cain (and then sorta not because she was alive before and after the attacks, but then again, she first shows up in Season 2).

~Rewatching BSG from the beginning has been hilarious and daunting. I learned that the show had been making comparisons to the War on Terror from the get-go. It was disheartening; I feel duped that I didn't see the signs. But what is considered "good television" these days is not a show that minces words -- more a show that will put all the flaws and nastiness on display. HBO corners the market on that, and their shows have the Emmys to prove it. Ian McShane and James Gandolfini did NOT win because they were dying or nice. It will be interesting to see if BSG even makes a dent in any main Emmy categories. Writing and effects, but acting, I don't know. Cast members such as James Callis and Tricia Helfer are two of the best. They'll probably sweep the Saturns.

But still, here's hoping for a great last season... Hope it comes close to the first two.

BSG cast as Jesus and the Disciples.  Discuss.

I was shooting a wedding (http://www.flickr.com/photos/kellbailey/sets/72157604345449432/) a couple of weeks ago and took this shot.

While I was looking at it I was wondering of ways to use the Firefly crew to redo it. Never thought of BSG. Cool stuff.

Baltar would have been more appropriate in the center.

I think it's interesting that Baltar is in the spot of John the Baptist.  When you look at the picture of Lee and the Empty cup, those spots belong to Judas and Peter(in the daVinci Last Supper).  Without a body in the spot, you can't be sure which one Lee is supposed to represent.
