Invisible hoverbikes.

FIFY.

As for the 12 tribes thing, yes they are based upon the 12 tribes of Israel as the original was a rip of the Book of Mormon which postulates that the lost 13th tribe came to America circa 600 BC.

The one element of the "Final five" that I don't get is Tigh.  Adama has known him since the first war.  So there have been humanoid cylons since around much longer than the humans realize even at this point in the story.


I'm no biologist but there was an episode where the Cylons die to a virus that was deadly to humans hundreds of years ago but not anymore. Since Cylons are nearly identical to humans in terms of DNA and IIRC haven't been shown to suffer from any other diseases, the logical conclusion is  they modeled themselves after humans and this was done hundreds of years prior to the first Cylon War.  Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?

BTW, I'm fairly certain this means one should be able to determine the difference between a human and a cylon. Cylons shouldn't have a "copy" of the virus in their DNA, but humans should. Correct me if I'm wrong.

BSG jumped the shark when they made Cylons human.  Beating a Dead Horse but hey, nekkid Boomer ftw. (well ok, we only see her back, but it still counts. )

Which always needs somebody in a given thread to tell everybody how retarded participation in the thread is. While ignoring the hypocrisy of his own actions.

2. Why don't the main cylons know who the final 5 are?
We know there was a schism some time in the past.  I'm not sure they don't know the details of the split so much as none of the seven were willing to talk about it at all.  I'm guessing they wanted to protect humanity or at least interact with them.  (Further far-out guessing is that they followed the 12th colony a long time ago and left a handful of sleeper agents behind, thus our four.)

As far as why the seven don't know what they look like, we don't know.  It could have been a collective wipe as a punishment ("you're dead to me").  Maybe they were the early human models, the new ones never met them, and the old ones didn't want to tell them.  At this point I have no solid guess.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

My guess for the last Cylon is also the doc.  It fits with my protector of humanity idea, and I don't think we have a healer archetype yet.

I find it odd that we haven't seen the doc lately. Did he run out of cigs?

Same reason you rarely see the black Cylon. The actor who plays him isn't a regular on the show so they have to pay extra every time he appears.

There is a certain elegance in the doc being a cylon.  But that would seem to lead no where story wise.  I hope who ever it was always knew they a cylon.  No more of this "sleeper" nonsense.  It was cool for Boomer but it's played out.

I thought he was the doctor archetype.  Or is he more of a scientist archetype?
