Ulysses Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 [move]ALERT POSSIBLE SPOILERS IN THIS THREAD, PLEASE US THE SPOILER OPTION FOR ANY OBVIOUS SPOILERS[/move] BATTLESTAR GALACTICA SEASON 4 EPISODE 4 "ESCAPE VELOCITY" Director: Edward James Olmos Writers: Ronald D. Moore (developer) Jane Espenson (written by) On last week's episode, Cally discovered the secret of the Galactica toasters and paid dearly for her knowledge. In tomorrow night's installment, "Escape Velocity," we'll see the aftermath of that event, and also revisit Baltar's (James Callis) messianic cult. The official description of the episode reads, "Baltar's beliefs create a controversy for those faithful to the 12 Lords of Kobol, and a crew member's demise casts a pall on the Colonials." The most exciting thing about this week is the return of Ellen Tigh. It looks like she'll be appearing in Saul's head, though it may be a trick brought on by Number Six. We also get a glimpse at Tyrol's unexpected reaction to Cally's death.

USWhoFan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 This wasn't a bad episode, and not great, but it sure wasn't like the others that came before it this season. It wasn't a compete flop either, gave a little insight to how at least 3 of the final 4 are handling the realization of being a cylon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 yeah i also thought it wasnt to great, bit watchable, the interesting thing mainly was Sol and number 6 in the galactica's cell and him seeing his wife. I wasnt over keen on apollo's new role and what they have done with this character nor was i over impressed with baltar and what they are doing with his character....but I will guess it will all fall into place. In all I voted Average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurion Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Yeah, things are not so great when the Cylon side of the story is out of the picture. Still, I thought Escape Velocity was a very good episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vystral Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Not a whole lot really happened, but it builds up pretty well for the next episode, what with Tigh being in the brig with Six... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 One thing that I was actually wondering was why is there so much attention with baltar since the start of this 4th season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slug Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I think that through attempting to make up for the failed imposed episodic nature of the previuos season they have actually swung too far in the other direction. Its beginning to feel like a very well scripted stagey BBC serial like I Clavdivs or something. I actually found myself far more engaged in this week's episode of Lost.

Baltar is Jesus, imaginary Six is an angel, and Count Iblis is God? >:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
