This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Hello, and welcome to the podcast for episode 405, this is [the] fifth episode, it is, what is the name of this episode? [laughs] This is Ronald D. Moore, I am executive producer and developer of the new Battlestar Galactica, and I'm here to welcome you to the podcast for... "[The] Ties That Bind"! [laughs] Ties That Bind. I'm sorry. I just did the podcast for episode four just a moment ago and I lost track. Anyway, this episode, like other episodes in the series that have proven problematic, ultimately I think has worked out pretty well, but I still have some issues with this particular episode, how we— what we're able to finally deliver to the screen. I think you'll find that it's an interesting episode, there's a lot of great moments within it, which I think really, really save it, but I think ultimately the mistake that I— that I probably made in structuring out the story to this episode, is that I didn't quite— I leaned a little bit too much on the Cally story, on the story of, Cally and Tyrol's marital problems and her ultimate attempt at suicide and tried to make that the A-line story going through. I don't think I quite gave it enough. It's got some interest beats going on, there's a lot of interesting questions of trust and identity and certainly the conflict in Tyrol realizing his true nature, trying to discover what's he all about, you know with the other final four, talking to Tory and how that impacts his marriage and ultimately driving Cally around the bend, was an interesting idea but I think in retrospect I probably should have structured it from the outset as more of a subplot instead of really, truly the A-plot because I don't know that it quite sustains itself. |
