Hi everybody,

Sophie here. We posted on battlestargalactica.com a new Japanese DVD promo kit Richard was given when he was interviewed in L.A. (they came from Japan just to interview actors...). It has2 VDs in it, giant collector cards for each character, an episode guide, etc... It's beautiful and you can see pics of it on the front page (scrolling down) of the BSG website. Richard signed it and all proceeds go to charity. (Richard's favorite charities are 2 pug rescues in L.A.).

I've been asked a lot and I'll answer here:
all I can say about the new Caprica series is, there's a version on E! about 2 families, the Graystones and the Adamas, and the Graystones' daughter Zoe who dies (in a suicide bombing because of her boyfriend's religious fanaticism) along with Adama (the Grandfather)'s wife and daughter. The 2 families unite to recreate their loved ones as robots, and the Adama family has regrets and opposes it, as their loved ones go on to become the first Humanoid Cylons. That version is the real one. That's what's being made.

As to Richard's character, let's just say he does not end well... Poor Richard... sad.gif But he's taking lots of them with him... Well, they die before he does. That's all I'll say! But we all knew he was a bad boy, right? Or rather, as he puts it, a guy with the right motivation who has no choice in the end. And don't ask me who the last Cylon is!

Sophie.

Yikes!
Bring on the DS9 parallels.

Baltar looks like Bashir. tongue.gif
Cylons infiltrate humanity like the Changelings. ohmy.gif
And Tom Zarek rages against the machine like Michael Eddington. biggrin.gif

And for kicks, the episode where Eddington dies is called "Blaze of Glory".
Goes without saying, Eddington dies as LedZeppelin describes in the quote.

Blaze of Glory was a good song from Bon Jovi in the Young Guns films. Sophie, good to see you back in the forum!

Richard Hatch = Tom Zarek

The guy who lost the presidency in "Sine Qua Non"...
Or as I like to call it, the biggest screwjob since Vince Mcmahon took the title from Bret Hart.

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
