Centurions were a deadly and intelligent force and the humans had a hard time trying to escape from them. Now that the Centurions have been returned to their evil intelligent selfs, do you think that they pose a greater danger and that the fleet will escape to Earth at the skin of their teeth? Or do you think that somehow the Cylon leaders will again reverse the process so the Centurions are kept in check?

I think the Centurions being able to think and reason for themselves could be very useful to the Cylon fleet, however, their feelings are going to make them incredibly dangerous. Slavery is what drove them to evolve to begin with, and they could very well turn to the humans and "offer" their services to escape being slaves to their own kind.

I think it will have the opposite effect, the Cylons who are now humanoid will realize that they should not have turned on the Centurions and it was all the Cylons who were slaves to the humans, not just the Centurions. And that was probably what got the Cylons to become humanoid. However machines cannot be people. It all depends on how the Cylons were created, whether they were humanoid to begin with but put their brains into machines to prevent being wiped out by a horrible disease. And once they return to their original bodies, they would be see themselves as brothers to the humans.

It's too bad that you haven't seen the last few episodes because the answer to your last question was addressed in them. I don't know if I want to give you a spoiler, though. I think the last person who responded probably told you all that was going on. There's a lot of in-fighting going on right now with the Cylons and they seem to be getting more and more involved with a war with each other than with the Humans.

Yes I had no idea what was going on. I remember the old Battlestar Galactica that was rather campy and all the Cylons were going after the humans. Of course, they were all machines then. So I guess by having them being sentient and humanoid, it is a way for the show to end, with all them fighting among themselves, the powers that be can end the series and the humans, those who survive will get to Earth while the Cylons will be scrapping among themselves.

Well, after watching the episode this week, I just don't know anymore. I think they will have to reverse the process. Look at what happened when she asked one to do something and he refused initially and she had to say "please". They are most certainly making them looke evil I can tell you that. The show has started off really well this time and is holding my interest - I was losing a little interest in the middle of last season. My son got me started watching this again and I tape it every week. It has so many darned twists and turns, I think I could watch each episode twice.

I may have to buy the DVds. That will cost quite a bit. I cannot understand half what is going on. I guess now that the Cylons are becoming human, they are starting to have differences. Now I wonder about Kara whether she is really a Cylon, or half Cylon. So I am up in the air about the whole show.

It does leave a lot of questions, and it seems the ending is going to be very depressing, possibly everyone will all die, the earth is contaminated with radiation. Now I hope that they just happened to land near an atomic testing ground, and since they are more advanced, have pills to remove the contamination from their bodies. But knowing how many shows have ended, I doubt it.
