According to that site, Lucy Lawless said that she was in episode #8, and its title was "Final Cut." Seems to me that that's either been moved to episode #9, or that Flight of the Phoenix is actually episode #9. Kuralyov 18:39, 29 Jun 2005 (EDT)

Huh? Lucy was in Final Cut as D'anna Biers which aired as episode #8 in the second season. Danaucpe 17:38, 19 September 2005 (EDT)

Hadrian?

Was it just me, or was there a glimpse of Hadrian when Sharon was being brought to the CIC? Kuralyov 23:37, 16 September 2005 (EDT)

I have the episode on tape: it's not her. It's another female Marine wearing the tan Marine uniform which I guess if for NCO's like Seargents. She's also got dark har, and also wears it in a ponytail, but it's not her. --Ricimer, 17 Sept, 2005

Another Fine Episode

I can't think of a bad episode in the bunch this season. This one was one of the richest yet. Opinions? The interesting tension between Helo/Tyrol and Dualla/Lee are weird, as well as the new comeraderie (fondness?) growing between Commander Adama and Roslin? That's really going to hurt him when she passes on. The new ship is great, and it looks like you can practically build it out of nothing--which is what the Colonials have in near-abundance. And Tyrol...well, Tyrol's got the Scotty skillz, and that's saying a lot. Spencerian 01:15, 17 September 2005 (EDT)

It was good. The Tyrol subplot, though, was my favorite part in any episode this season and high on my list of the entire series. The colonial march ending from Final Cut is a close second for this season. --Talos 01:37, 17 September 2005 (EDT)

Sprocketeer's Recent Entry, and A Better Way to Work With It

When I first saw Sprocketeer's entry on "his" perception on the episode, I had initially considered deleting it since it appeared more of a gripe than an analysis, but realized he had a few good points. I trimmed it to its high points, noted some arguments against it, to go along with some edits. At the same time, it seems Ricimer was editing the page and countered Sprocketeer's entry in what I interpreted as an inappropriate entry as well. But, rather than trying to incorporate Ricimer's comments, I did remove them at the moment. I'll be going back to the article to add Ricimer's thoughts back in (if he doesn't return first to do so) from history data.

We have to remember that the articles are designed to be encyclopedic; while you can express personal point-of-view in terms of analysis (provided you have have supporting points), you cannot WRITE as if you are speaking in an verbal argument to one person, as Ricimer and Sprocketeer appear to have done. This really makes the page unpleasant to read. See my interpretation on the article for my suggestion. I'm not really taking sides here in the debate beyond what was shown, but we have to keep the page from becoming a battlefield. Spencerian 19:02, 19 September 2005 (EDT)
