Let's Watch! BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: S01E07 "Six Degrees of Separation"

Something I certainly began to pick up on in this episode was the idea that the cylons worship one God while the humans worship multiple (I think two, one male and one female) that I find really interesting and something I certainly didn't expect to see in a show like this. It really adds a whole new dynamic. If the cylons are machines, why do they worship a God? Wouldn't they HAVE to be PROGRAMMED to worship a God? Really gets me thinking.

The main point of the episode, for me, was to show that Six can project herself out of Baltar's head, or at least that's what it looks like. I'm very intrigued.

What was the point of the president collapsing? Was it only used for suspense or will this have a further meaning?

One of the theories I began having was that when we see Boomer petting talking to the Cylon Raider and no one else really has that connection besides Starbuck. Starbuck is the only other person that can make the ship fly. Is she a Cylon, perhaps?

The one thing that really took me out of the story and just SCREAMED bad writing was when Six said you can "enlarge and sharpen" the image. It is impossible to do that with a digital image and I am happy that the picture wasn't some game changing event in the series and it was revealed it was fake. I would have been very upset otherwise.

I loved the sex scene between Helo and Boomer while the Boomer on Galactica found "cylon" written on her mirror.
