Talk:The Woman King/Archive 1

Programming Note

As many in the United States know, the Super Bowl American Football championship game is February 4. For most in our country, that game is a holiday-like event with as much national pride and rivalries as the international World Cup championship games. Since any TV programming that plays alongside the Super Bowl won't get many viewers, it appears that the SciFi Channel chose to pre-empt Battlestar to the following week. Just to let you know before you search for a torrent of the next episode.

I, for one, will certainly be watching, as I'm a resident of Indinaapolis, home of the Colts and one of the teams in the game. :) --Spencerian 12:48, 30 January 2007 (CST)

Da Bears will win. End of line. Bstone 07:16, 31 January 2007 (CST)

Get the to see the Super bowl over the pond too :D --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 07:45, 31 January 2007 (CST)

DAAAAAAAAAAA BEARS. I'll miss my weekly Galactica fix, however :( --BklynBruzer 10:53, 2 February 2007 (CST)

Yeah, RIGHT. How'd that game work out for ya, BB? :) --Spencerian 10:30, 6 February 2007 (CST)

I had no particular feelings either way, except that my dad did a couple of Saturday Night Live skits about the Bears and my grandpa's a Bears fan. I heartily congratulate Indianapolis on their win :D --BklynBruzer 13:12, 6 February 2007 (CST)

Wild and Crazy speculation!!!!!!!!

OK, OK, OK, OK! I know somebody is going to blow my last addition out of the water about the GateWorld crap but I just create a link to a page that has revealed some now confirmed data even though there is other unconfirmed data in the article. I wanted to create the opportunity for the reader to make an assessment for him/herself. I know, I know, I know the policies on this stuff, but I'm testing the waters.... --Straycat0 15:04, 23 September 2006 (AST)

Title

"Woman King" is the title of a song and E.P. album by Iron & Wine. Maybe someone on the writing staff is a fan? --Xenophon10k 06:37, 9 October 2006 (CDT)

Concurrent with "Taking a Break?"

Is there any information or thought as to whether this episode takes place at the same time as the previous episode, "Taking a Break from All Your Worries?" It would make some sense, as this episode is rumored to involve Hera under the care of Dr. Robert, and Athena was in a rush to get a sick Hera to a doctor at the end of "Rapture." It would also explain where Helo and Sharon are during "Taking a Break," since they weren't featured there at all, with the seemingly urgent Hera storyline oddly dropped.

Of course, the idea of "Black Market" and "Scar" being concurrent came up as the second season aired, but that was disproved. This might just be a random idea. I guess we'll find out for sure in two weeks. --Linaf 20:12, 29 January 2007 (CST)

It might also explain why Doctor Robert is treating Hera instead of Cottle as he is busy with the interrogation drugs on Baltar. --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 11:31, 2 February 2007 (CST)

Keep in mind though, that Cottle is not on Sharon's "A" list right about now either. Probably, since he played quite a big roll in faking Hera's death and hiding the baby away...Maybe Helo and Sharon wanted to seek...a second opinion. Unfortunatly, if that's the case looks like he won't be a good choice!--Gallion 09:54, 6 February 2007 (CST)

My Predictions

I've looked deep into my crystal ball this week, Galactica fans, and what I've seen will blow your minds and require a change of pants. I'll give you all a moment or two to go grab a spare pair of trousers. Got 'em? Okay, here we go:

• Helo beats the sweet bejeezus out of a frail old man who's just trying to help people through euthanasia.
• Athena, being a murderous Cylon deep inside, gets turned on by the violence. She and Helo conceive their second child.
• The trial of Gaius Baltar begins with thunderous applause.
• Tom Zarek!
• We see the first shots of the Cylon homeworld and learn how the Cylons are dealing with the loss of the Number Three model. Some models aren't taking it so well.
• We also learn why the Cylon fleets are spread so thin: Attacks from a mysterious external enemy have drawn the majority of the Cylons' attention for the last year and a half.
• Starbuck and Hot Dog take the Heavy Raider back to the Colonies to gather supplies. The Heavy Raider is able to make the trip in three jumps each way. When there, they're attacked by Cylon models they've never seen before and are brought to meet their leader: Galvatron!
• Dude. Tom motherfrakking ZAREK.
• More guest appearances by the SuicideGirls. Quinne Suicide even has a line.
• Tigh whines about stuff and gets promoted. Gaeta whines about stuff and gets thrown in the brig. Apollo whines about stuff and gets promoted and thrown in the brig.
• Special guest appearances by Dr. Jack Kevorkian and Harlan Ellison.
• Did I mention Tom Zarek?

Should be a hum-dinger of a night. As always, you can place your bets with Bruzer or on my User Talk page. I'll see you all on Monday. --Slander 13:05, 7 February 2007 (CST)

Yup, bets can be placed on my talk page. --BklynBruzer 13:48, 7 February 2007 (CST)

Suicide girls? They're unboxing the Threes already? -- Gordon Ecker 19:20, 7 February 2007 (CST)

LIke the predictions, especially on Tigh, Gaeta and Apollo. But what about Dee, Cottle, Caprica and Anders?--CoreyDanian 19.23, 8 February 2007

I hate to step on Slander's territory, but here's what I say -

• Caprica seduces Roslin and gets her to release Baltar because Caprica's become addicted to 3-ways.
• Dee and Cottle are having a secret love affair that Cottle is hiding from his other partner, Anders.

--BklynBruzer 21:31, 7 February 2007 (CST)

Cottle/Anders OTP. Looks like we got our crystal balls from the same wish-granting Gypsy, BB, because mine told me the exact same things. --Slander 11:45, 8 February 2007 (CST)

OTP? And also, you got your crystal ball from Dodona Selloi too? Cool! --BklynBruzer 11:50, 8 February 2007 (CST)

As defined by Wikipedia, "One True Pairing -- usually used to denote a fanatical devotion to one pairing in a fandom, excluding all others; a fandom abbreviation referring to one's favorite fictional couple." It's a term from the shipping community, which I use here for parodic effect, as I loathe fanfiction and everything having to do with it. --Slander 12:41, 8 February 2007 (CST)
