I don't like where this is going

[fringey]

Well, NB, you can just deal with the fact then that the season premiere drew 2.2 million viewers and is STILL the highest rated show on SFC, after ECW. Ya know, if you don't like something, that is fine. But, why come onto a forum for fans of the show and trash it? You aren't going to change our opinions. Suck it up and watch thirty year old reruns. We don't care about your opinion. Whatever happened to your promise you weren't going to ever post about BSG again? As for the quality of the show, well, all the critics rave about it and they don't give Peabody Awards to crappy TV shows. I know it sucks, for you, that people like the show. Life is tough.

"I always keep my arrangements sir, we're nowhere near your ship." Q
Never said I wouldn't post on some other topic, just that one.

Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals pulled in 2.1 million viewers, and Leno was making jokes about low ratings---the worst hockey game will always be better than the best episode of NBG.
Peabody award, eh? You don't say---but after Mili Vanilli won a Grammy, I personally feel such awards are meaningless attempts at propaganda.
(first thing they do with a show that sucks, is tell everyone how great it is; ABC was pimping Invasion right up until they cancelled it.)
I gots me a shelf loaded with trophies, ribbons, certificates and a rainbow of martial arts belts, none of which mean diddly to anyone.

I have never, nor will I ever insult the intelligence of any Trek Passions member; but if someone I knew was dating a 50-something, cross-eyed, knock-knee, toothless former hooker, I would be constrained to point out his bad taste.

[fringey]

Well, ya know, I hate that you are miserable and feel the need to spread it around. But, as I have seen from so many of your posts trashing so many things, your taste is questionable at best. Why don't you give other folks a break and take your opinion somehwere where it will be appreciated. I am positivie there are some TOSer sites where anti-BSg venom is appreciated. Spreading crap around on a BSG fan forum is definitely NOT going to win you any prizes. I would have thought you would be intelligent enough to figure that out long ago. Hope your life improves soon and you can find something to be happy about.

"Specifics, Doctor. Feelings do not make arguments." Mr. Spock
The movie Jackass: Number Two got two thumbs up, and made 28 million U.S. dollars in its opening weekend; critical acclaim, awards and apparent popularity do not, have not, and will never account for taste.
(The tribbles liked that pain in the neck commissioner we saw in "The Trouble With Tribbles")
I bear a rapier-like wit with pride, confident in my skill when callled on to use it. You claim to carry such a sword yourself, sir. I challenge you to use it in a logical, rational argument in defense of your show---en garde!

***** YAWN**** Since it quite apparent from your posts you aren't open-minded to anything less than twenty year old in your viewing habits, I think it is best to just ignore your posts from now on. The obvious rantings of a bitter person who can't appreciate anything that isn't just like what they viewed as a child are boring in the extreme. Oh, and do some research on the Peabody Award before likening it to the Grammys or Ebert and Roeper. Sheesh.

Shall we get back to the topic at hand?

Do people think that Baltar could be a Cylon? It would certainly explain his cold callous nature and how he acted on New Caprica before and during the Cylon occupation.

Look, I didn't hear any screaming or squishing sounds.

[cooky37]

I truly doubt Baltar is a cylon. Why? Because I'm a Cylon and I haven't seen him at any of the meetingS

they are messing with his head like when mental 6 said she was just a figment. Why would they treat him like a naughty lap dog if he was. why would they need 6 to seduce him in the first place

Btw Fringey cut bear some slack he's just showing off.

Will someone shut that man up
NEVER!

[valarules (deleted)]

Funny.

6 has had a thing for Baltar for awhile. Plus it seems to me that they're both a little unstable. (Just a guess)

Look, I didn't hear any screaming or squishing.

[fringey]

If Baltar is a Cylon, I will actually be disappointed because he would be the most obvious Cylon (after Ellen Tigh) in the series.

Cylon 6 used love potion 9 on Baltar 2.0 to get the secret defense plans.
It is therefore likely they want to at least try to keep some hold on him, in hopes of garnering more actionable intelligence.

Jamie St. John Bamber Griffith (it took 35 minutes for scfi.com to give up that name, I'm using the whole thing) was interviewed today on the TV Guide Channel's program, TV Watercooler.
Bambi sez they decided to do some character development, "so they made him fat. He's behind a desk now, he's a commander, he isn't even a Viper pilot anymore"---that was their best shot at character development, a weight problem?

Bambi also noted "there will be no aliens." So as they flee from the Cylon tyranny, the rag-tag fugitive fleet won't run into anything worth notifying SETI? I like that they make this into a stylistic decision, when it seems more likely that aliens just are not in the budget.

It was difficult to watch the hosts of TV Watercooler sucking up to Bambi but hey, that's their job. If himbo and bimbo like it, then everyone should like it too!
To anyone that easily led around, I've got a bridge I can sell you, cheap...

"What's it for? Self defense? Mayhem? Shish-kebab?" Lt. Riley

Fringey cannot muster a defense, an has run from the field of honor---but hold, there are others who enjoy NBG. I'll stay on the yellow sections of the Tri-sec, the rest of you can have the blue.
I stand ready to take on all comers; let's see one of you sell me on this show.

As for my tastes being archaic, did anyone else see this week's episode of House, m.d.?
Never mind. I'm here to find out what you see, that I do not; best bet thus far is I'm somehow immune to the mind control rays coming from the TV---surely, I jest.

[cooky37]

Ah! but this is not the feild of honor. This is the coffee clatch, the water cooler, and pherhaps if you perfer the self apreciation society. join me for a new thread "BATTLE OF THE BATTLESTARS
. If you want to noses go there, if you want to stroke egos, go there. if you want to talk about the latest eppisode.. Would you like cream or milk in your coffee?

Will someone shut that man up
NEVER!

[ninjabear]

Oh, I see!
This thread is a c----er-frell for fans only?
Then I am in the right place, and see no reason to leave a target-rich environment.
I have cast down my gage. That makes this the field, and honor demands I wait for one of you to pick up my gauntlet or concede. There is nothing in the code that allows me to retire without my challenge being met, one way or the other (go ahead, look it up, I'll wait).
When you're in love, you want to shout it from the rooftops; so what's keeping you, NBG fans? Form a circle, hold hands and let's all feel the love!

In his TV Watercooler interview, Mr. Bamber reveals by his accent he is a naturalized U.S. citizen, formerly of Britain. He is proud of being able to hold what he feels is an authentic "American accent" in his role as Commander Apollo.
Uh...why?
The character is from another planet halfway across the galaxy, if not some far flung part of the universe. Who cares if he has an accent of any sort? Most of the Farscape cast were obviously Australian by the sound of them, but that had no bearing on the show itself.
It makes more sense for Hugh Laurie to speak American, since he's playing a doctor in New Jersey (Hi I'm Greg! How about that local sports team?) but a human extraterrestrial? You'd think a "foreign" accent would be a plus.
I can do a "007" accent quite well; doesn't make me an actor, either.
