Best episode in year, there was a real tension in this one. There was nothing about additional Cylons or mysterious illnesses, this episode was violent, edgy and in a lot of ways frightening as a good man has gone completely bad.
the previews for next week were jarring as we see Adama blindfolded and bound in an airlock in front of a firing squad.
To me Galactica had sort of lost its spirit, but it certainly found it tonight with a deliciously evil Zarek leading the way.

Just finished watching it on the PVR. Excellent, excellent episode.
I'm a diehard fan of this show, but even I can admit that season 4 ("last" season) seemed to drift away a bit from what made the show great. I felt the first episode of this season was OK, but similar to that last season... these last 2 episodes have been amazing television and I can't wait for next week.
An awesome conclusion to the rebellion story arch. We finally see a truly angry Roslin as she threatens to use every gun and every bomb to end Tom Zarek. Felix and Zarek exchange levels of evil and ruthlessness with Zarek showing his true colors.
A truly sad and tragic ending for two major characters.
Oh and the return of everyones favorite slightly corrupted lawyer. Oh and hints at a huge character return next week.
I've missed the intense battlestar galactica, it looks like its back again.

at the end of the mid season finale, when they were standing on the ravaged, bleak, grey beach looking our at the sea,
did anyone else think:
"oh god, they landed in newfoundland!"

Wow, so exciting, I got to do the last three in a row today having falling behind. So good!! I was cheering.
Two questions.
1. Bolded part ?
2. Gaeda talking to Balter earlier on via the phone. He said something about Gaeda signing a piece of paper? What was that all about?

More than likely referring to the order to execute people on New Caprica. Baltar took the heat for it, and even though Gaeda was almost tossed out an airlock for it and later "vindicated" for helping the resistance, it appears that he had his hand in it after all.
As a side note, I wonder how many secondary characters will quietly be airlocked between now and next week. The pilot that tried to shoot down the president, Racetack who has been on the show since the start. They all threw in with Zarek.
I bet it takes a while to get the blood off of the airlock floor.

I can't wait for next weeks episode! You know what I was a little be sad that the show was ending, but now I'm really sad. As previously mentioned before the last few episodes have reminded me why I have invested so much time into this show.

Just finished watching and what do yea know, they remember the BATTLE in BattleStar and its great. Everything was fun to watch, even President Plastic Surgery's overacted threat speech.
Tye - Cylon (sorry, that is inexcuseable), Chief (also a cylon), Gaida (I can live with the fact that he puts from the ruff but now they kill him off)
No surprise at all, everything was if I wrote the script and new what was going to happen
