Overview

Summary

The episode is purported to be the "Cylon point of view" episode mentioned by producer Ron Moore in several interviews and blog postings. It is rumored to show what happened to the soul of Galactica Boomer after she was killed by Cally. This episode suposedly gives new insight to the Cylon religion and the basic structure of Cylon society. Lucy Lawless makes a return appearance as reporter/Humano-Cylon D'anna Biers.

Questions

Analysis

Recent rumours have suggested that this episode has been removed from Season Two's schedule in favor of extending "Resurrection Ship" into a two-part episode. Conflicting rumours state that it will air at the end of the season as an extra episode, or in season 3, while others say it will not be shown at all.

Speculation on what disappointment Ron Moore is referring to in his blog entry, The Return, has lead to the rumour that "Downloaded" may have been pulled due to issues of quality.

An excerpt from The Return:

"One thing that has become apparent in recent days is just how committed we are around here to maintaining the quality of the show and our incredible dissatisfaction when those goals are not met. I found myself not only dissatisfied last night, but positively angry with myself at something I knew in my bones had fallen well below the bar I set for myself and for the show in general. I won't go into it now (maybe later) but it was one of those situations where I looked at something and had to listen to the voice inside my head say "You screwed this one up." Nothing pisses me off more than not making a show the best I think it can be and in this case, there was no one to blame but myself. The only solace I take from it is the knowledge that it does still piss me off and therefore I am still doing something I'm passionately engaged in. Far too many writers, producers, directors and actors I've known have been stuck doing things that they either didn't care about or actually loathed, and I've been extremely fortunate in always being emotionally engaged in the projects I've worked on."

However, there are still more rumors that the scrapped "Cylon POV episode" was a different episode from this one, which would mean that this episode involving the ultimate fate of Galactica-Boomer may still air in Season 2.5.
