Apparently there is going to be a spin-off series, and it will have gay sex. According to the FoF people, who are fans, at least. :P


Caprica (the main planet of the 12 colonies Star system).  The show will retell the stories of 2 families, the Greystokes and the Adamas, and their direct/indirect influence on the creation of the cylons.

Before that there will be a 2 hours TV movie called "The Plan", which will be the story of the attack on the colonies from the Cylons' perspective.

As for gay sex on TV...  You've watched QaF so you know nothing short of actual pronography can beat that.

Btw I just listened to the last Podcast by Ron Moore (creator & executive producer), a lot of questions get answered that are related to the choices made for the show as a whole and the finale specifically.  I wonder if in this day and age these 'addons' aren't necessary to complete a narrative ?

This sounds like a cool series. Should I watch it? :o

Maybe.  Avoid New Caprica and pretend it ends when they find Earth the first time (it's a fake Earth but it's a lot cooler if you make believe it's real).

Nah, turns out that the Colony went into the black hole when it was hit by the nukes, so they are all dead. Supposedly. Apparently all the basestars were there. Right.

That was clear in the original version of the show, but they edited it out because they needed the time to show profound character development, like Starbuck begging Lee to fuck her after Lees brother, her fiancee, passed out drunk.

Can't miss important "character development" like that! Things like explaining the fucking story will just have to go!

Horribly, those flashbacks are there to show how God/Fate intervened in their lives, so that they'd all be in the fleet.  Viewed in that light, they almost work--except it turns out God is really really real, which turns them into fucking garbage and begs the question, "Hey, God, why?"

He asked for opinions, Grallon. :P

And in my opinion, New Caprica sucked only a bit less than Daybreak.  The episodes coming after the discovery of burned-out Earth are actually pretty decent, but they merely lead up to Daybreak, which is worse than Quebecois independence.

Not really. :huh:

And that's rather unlikely as I looked up "Petulent" and it doesn't seem to be a word. :(

It's been a bit since I've seen your last misogynistic line (assuming what you said is a take off of: Oh that girl is so frigid/up tight. I bet she just needs a good f_ck!). I'd almost you'd become a better person. :o
