Battlestar Galactica Season Finale
Ok...it was amazing. But damn did it raise questions!!! Are 4 of the final 5 really Tori, Saul, Sam and Tyrol? Was Ellen the 5th? Is Starbuck the 5th? Is this a trick?
Didn't we see Starbuck's ship blow up? How could she still be in it? Oh and I just noticed the first letter of the potential final 5 are only 2 letters: T's (Tori, Tyrol) and S's (Sam, Saul, Starbuck). Also, it interesting to look at who was sexually involved with who--seems like cylons are attracted to each other? Sam with Starbuck and Tori, Tyrol with Boomer, and maybe even Saul with Ellen. Just a thought. 2008 is a LONG time to wait!!!
Beyond that...the music was so good. I found the lyrics to the song they kept hearing, it is called All Along the Watchtower by Bob Dylan originally. And also performed by Jimmy Hendrix--see a YouTube performace by Jimi below! The lyrics are eerily appropriate for the episode:
"There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief.
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth."
"No reason to get excited," the thief, he kindly spoke,
"There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late."
All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
