So after a year and some-odd days, the night we've been eagerly waiting for has arrived.

The first half of the final season begins in two hours - 10 PM EST/9 PM CST.

Ready for launch?

Hell yeah I'm ready. I just really hope this season is better than season three. Don't get me wrong, I like season three, but I hope season four goes out with a bang.

I am looking forward to it and I hope it reverses the bit about Tigh, Tyrol, Anders, and Tory are Cylons and has them merely screwed up by them. After all, all four of them were on New Caprica and we KNOW that at least one (Tigh) spent considerably amounts of time in captivity. The Cylons had plenty of access them to mess them up and frankly, them doing so makes a hell of alot more sense than the lot of them being Cylons from the beginning.

The problem with that is that the Final Five have been built up for much of the season. That means they have to be some very important characters. If the latest revelation is retconned, that just leaves Adama (either one), Roslin, Starbuck, Baltar, and Helo as candidates.

That will break the series.

Of course they built them up. I would. Best way to set up the switcheroo.

FINAL five where the worst idea of the series.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

I'm amazed to find out Sam can fly a viper.

Looks like a raider just mind-scrambled Sam.

Looks like, despite Tigh's hallucination, Anders is going to crack first.

He did leave the gym last, after all.

I was pretty feaked out when Saul shot Adama...in his mind.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

I had the exact same reaction. My second reaction was, that was a damn good shot, right in the eye.

First of all, does anyone care about what happens with Baltar right now? Second, why is everyone averting their eyes like he's the frakking Pope?

This is such stomach-turning bullshit I could scream. There is one God, and apparently, Gaius Baltar's decided he's it.

Well, some women are attracted to ass holes, and Baltar sold out the human race twice.

I swear I'm going to lose my mind if Baltar does something that convinces this gang of idiots that he saved the little kid.

For a moment, I thought Tigh was about to off himself.

And, Gaeta needs to take a pill.
