For some reason, I'm really excited about this episode. Kuralyov 01:28, 29 Jun 2005 (EDT)
Oh, great. Now it appears that whatever is SPAMing us with ad links got a user name: "Boomer". Although I think it might be possible for a zombie computer to do this, I'm leaning towards the idea that it's an actual person. They must be subjected to live unsedated vivisection. ---Ricimer 25 Aug 2005
- Yeah, this is a real person. But they are likely still controlling another computer to do it. There are a few ways to go about reducing this stuff, but what I really don't get is that some yahoo actually wastes their time spamming a board that has thousands--THOUSANDS--of people who read and edit it deily, eliminating their "work" in seconds. They're wasting their time more than they get on our nerves. Spencerian 21:02, 25 Aug 2005 (EDT)
Kuralyov, Did you move the "proposed episode" stuff to another article, or just delete it? It should definitely be somewhere here. --Fang Aili 08:25, 14 September 2005 (EDT)
- I deleted it. It's completely, and I mean completely, irrelevant to this episode. It belongs on the page for the original Living Legend episodes, if at all. Kuralyov 16:35, 17 September 2005 (EDT)
There is a picture of the Mercury-class Battlestar in the preview after Flight of the Phoenix. We need a shot of Pegasus here on the page! Spencerian 15:46, 17 September 2005 (EDT)
- I noticed they still don't have the trailer up on the SciFi BSG page. Kuralyov 16:35, 17 September 2005 (EDT)
- It was put up on SciFi approximately 2-3 days before the episode. Mildly annoying. Sgtpayne 10:27 EDT, 24 September 2005
Did you notice Pegasus advertised as the Season Finale of Galactica on SciFi channel last night? Did they split the run of 20 into two seasons? John Reese
- On closer study, it said "Summer Finale." No idea what that means. John Reese
- How many times must we re-explain this? A normal season for a show on Scifi (Stargate SG-1, Atlantis, etc) has 20 episodes. What they do is they take the first half of these and run them during summer, then run the second half during February-May. ***They've done this for like 4-5 years now. --->What may confuse you is that their advertisements in commercials refer to it as a "summer season finale". That's just a marketing ploy. One Scifi Channel fans are all used to. Season 1 only had 13 episodes so they didn't do that then, but it's going to be in this new format forever. ---Ricimer, 17 Sept, 2005
Any guesses what the mystery Cylon ship is for? Danaucpe
- My guess is that its a Super Basestar--a ship so massive that it can create Basestars from natural resources of rocky planets. Whatever it is, it will take the combined forces of Pegasus and Galactica to take it down. Spencerian 02:10, 24 September 2005 (EDT)
- That is, of course, if they can get past the two Basestars & various support craft mentioned in Pegasus. The only reason that the Basestar went down in Kobol's Last Gleaming is through sheer cunning (even part of which may be suspect, seeing as Boomer is a Humano-Cylon).

Any thoughts as to if the Blackbird is jump capable? Sgtpayne
- My initial presumption would that be that it wouldn't. Reasons include the fact that it's made of carbon fiber, and not steel, like the Viper. I'm not sure it would be even be capable of atmospheric flight, much less jump travel. It's size is also comprable to the Viper, allowing for catapult launch capability. It's safe to say that based on the fact that Vipers are not jump-capable, it stands to reason these would not be too. Sgtpayne 11:41 EDT, 24 September 2005
Summaries vs Speculation
We're all anticipating these episodes, of course. It's important to note that rumors, speculation and other unaired hearsay about this episode is not fit for summary entries. The summary is the factual summation of the aired content. If the episode has yet to air, then it is best to place only the information that could be confirmed from the official Sci-Fi Channel preview (being careful not to intepret it literally since they are always out of context) or official information from RDM himself. There was an entry of Cain's demise and Adama's rank change in this episode, while we also have similar information in the later ep, Resurrection Ship. Neither can both be right, so we need to wait until we have verified information, which, if the pattern continues from other eps, only happen when the episode airs. Rumors can be placed here in Talk at any time, but you may want to state your source. Spencerian 11:24, 19 September 2005 (EDT)
- Source of Spoiler [Cain's demise and Adama's rank change to Admiral] podcast http://podcasts.lvrocks.com/details.aspx?castid=5 (9-7-2005) Second half of podcast about (1hr 6mins) into podcast.
- Other podcasts have some interviews with Battlestar cast memebrs i.e (8-10-2005) (9-14-2005) etc
- Thanks. Who made this podcast? Normally we take just RDM's and David Eick's podcasts and videos as official, so cast member comments may or may not be accurate if RDM and Co. have to adjust schedules, episode airings and stuff. Can you elaborate? If you want to add the stuff I took off back in the meantime, please feel free--I'm not the police or anything; I just want to ensure we keep things to a credible-enough source.
