Ok guys, let me remind you, mind your spoiler space outside of this thread and don't ruin the cliffie for those that haven't seen it

[IMForeman]

They'll never find that eye. Anubis already had all the eyes when he attacked Abydos.


That temple did have a distinctly Abydos feel to it. I guess they are going with the Egyptian feel in the relics of the original series.

[daniel9]

they probably wll find it in the 2nd half of the ep. or rather baltar or tyrol or3 will

[Arative]

I think I'm getting to used to RDM's cliffhanger writing, its always the large setup with the big payoff on the 2nd episode!

Not a bad episode at all, good to finally see that Sharon found out about the baby, don't know how her and Helo will react to Roslin though. Glad to see they didn't didn't blame Adama.

Is it just me or does Baltar look like Jesus? With the long hair and beard. I know they had a lot of cross imagiry in the second season but taking it to new heights now.

Hmmm. Not as head-clutchingly scream-inducingly awful as some cliffhangers I've seen, but not bad. Although isn't the eye the big circle thingy?

Lee/Kara is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo TEDIOUS!! Gads. Tedious, trite, lame, annoying, dram, uninteresting, pick the unflattering adjective of your choice. And the whole macho contest with Anders is just as stupid.

I'm more interested in what's going to happen to Sharon and Helo now that they know about their daughter. And what IS wrong with her?

Any guesses on who the Chosen One is? D'anna? Gaius? Tyrol? Hera?

Oh, and when Tyrol entered that cavey place, was I the only one expecting him to see a Dharma symbol somewhere?

FRAK Me! For the second time since I saw the screening!

Best line: "What, you think you're the first?"

[creed462]

Man I think Al (that's what he played in Quatum Leap) Need a reality check, When does Adama buff! When he says something he means it.

It very well may be, but how do you get it to work and point the way?

My guess is that the eye is actually the star that's about to go supernova. Just a guess.

Deanna even got the Patented Adama Glare. I was expecting her to melt. No, not figuratively, LITERALLY.

Tyrol. He felt that magical pull to bring him there.

The same way as in every other mysterious ancient temple with a random hole in the roof: get the sunlight to shine on the right spot. And, since this is about coincidences, the sunlight will only hit the eye once every how many thousand years and that point will be in just a few hours...

I suppose they already tried simply pushing on it, right?

They need a laser pointer...

[ladyaugustana]

Sooo... Lee's going to order Dee to save Kara? Bring Starbuck back to Apollo,
hehe I can't wait for that angst-fest.

Gods Anders is such a idiot, he should know that Lee would not let anything happen to her! I read somewhere that Anders would only be in 5 or 6 episodes so here's hoping they kill him off soon.

Cally is really starting to get on my nerves.

[ToasterOnFire]

Oh gods, just when I thought I couldn't despise this Lee/Kara/Dee/Anders crap any more they come out with this ep. Poor Lee and Kara, let's pity them because Lee doesn't want to cheat on Dee (now he has morals? Please.) and Kara sees marriage as something sacred (what a JOKE). And then Kara has the nerve to get uppity with Dee. Whatever, Kara. I'm so fed up with those two characters that I'd actually cheer if either one was offed. What a 180 from the first season.

And the teaser

Spoiler:

gives me enough hate to make it until January. Dee saving Kara because Lee ordered her to? Gag.

I'm going to post more about the other parts of this ep, but man this ongoing shippy mess really cheeses me off and ruins my enjoyment of an otherwise excellent episode.
