Only one more week until season 4 starts!

For those of you who have not seen this, here is the season 4 trailer I found on you tube:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=MZaiHmjVpSU

Now this is a trailer that interests me more. I have yet to determine if it is fake or real, but either way you see both the Battlestar Hades and Titan in this clip:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=zQaEUKwNNLQ&feature=related


Could anyone let me know if the second clip is a fake? I'm thinking the other battlestar's might be clips from previous episodes, but I don't remember seeing any of them earlier.

Either way, i'm stoked. It's been way to long to wait for this season.

My best guess is that the second one is a fake, mostly because the scenes are hashed together from previous episodes.

I only started watching BSG last summer via online downloads. So I don't know whether or not it is being broadcast in HD in Canada. Does anybody know which channel it might be on in HD?

4 more days!! I'm endeavoring to rewatch season 3 before Friday... don't think I'll make it but it's been a while since I revisited episodes of this show. I forgot just how frak'ing awesome it truly is. Best show on TV right now, and best Sci-Fi in history.

Man you guys have no idea how stoked I am...well I mean if your reading this tread more than likely you do. I just re watched season 3 within a few days of it being released and if it wasn't for my damn term papers I'd do it again.

Until Space gets an HD feed we will not get it in HD sadly.

Season 4 starts tomorrow night.

To wet your appetite, here is an interview with Tricia Helfer
http://www.wired.com/entertainment/h...2008/04/helfer
Quote:
Wired: You've posed for Playboy, and Six has had some pretty intense love scenes with your Battleship Galactica co-star James Callis, who plays Dr. Gaius Baltar. Does your husband get jealous?

Helfer: No, he was supportive of the Playboy shoot and is very cool when it comes to kissing scenes with James. It's just a day at the office. He totally gets it.
Hey Tricia, is your office hiring?

What'd everyone think of last night's premiere? Baltar seems to be enjoying one of the most interesting character arcs as for as I am concerned.

I thought as far as preimere's go for this particular show it was pretty underwhelming.

I can see where your coming from. But I think there were a few nuggets in there that stood out for me. Lee and Adama's discussion about what if Zac came out of the cockpit and was Cylon is one thing that sticks out for me.

Oh yeah no question - but the quality of this show is so high, I just found last night's to be a little "meh".

That what happens when you promo it to death. Have you been to Space's website lately. How many times can you use 'frak' on one webpage?

The best part of this episode was Tigh's "dream". I almost crapped my pants.

I thought the opening battle scenes were quite good especially when they incorporated Tigh's (sp?) dream. It will be interesting to see how the now revealed four Cylons will act and/or cope.

I'm assuming that the robotic cylons are going to refuse to attack the human fleet for fear of killing the final five, leading to a cylon civil war.

Meanwhile the last Cylon will be that guy that we keep seeing in the background emptying garbage cans and sweeping the floors while listening to "Mr Roboto" on his walkman.

Wouldn't the final 4 (or maybe 5...) re-spawn in a resurrection ship, or am I missing something here? Unless they are programmed to do something at a certain time that requires them to remain on Galactica I suppose.

I thought the new episode was a pretty good opener for the final season. Set the stage for what is to come. Lots of more questions that need answering now though.

As much as I like some the implications of Tigh being a Cylon, I am looking forward to explanation of how he could be....and yes I am that nerdy.

I thought it was a pretty solid start. The last season ended with a bit of cheesiness to it and this washed that out.
Loved the seed of doubt they leave you with as to whether SB is in fact "fake" or real with the clean ship and data recorder.
What a hard life for Gaius, talk about landing on your feet in a hareem ship with hot women that want to worship/sleep with you sheesh!

Since the Cylons have no clue who the final five are, its doubtful that the resurrection ship has a tigh, or Anders or Chief replacement body standing by to be reborn.

I think that the personalities are pretty specific to the bodies that they go into.

In a true sense, I think that these new cylons are pretty much mortal.
