In "No Exit" long-awaited answers are finally delivered in a flurry of reveals. We scrutinize how well the mysteries fit into the past, and find them to be a more than satisfactory fit. We turn our attention to the remaining puzzles: Starbuck, and the Head characters.

Were the revelations too much too fast? And what of the previously unknown Model Seven?

We interview Richard Hatch, who gives unique insight into the character of Tom Zarek. Whatever you thought of the character before, you may have a different impression once you hear his motivation and perspective, directly from the actor that played him.

Thank you, Richard, for talking with us!

The mutiny story arc comes to a gripping conclusion with "Blood On The Scales." Not just the outcome of the coup storyline, but the resolution of Gaeta's character.

If the heart-quickening mutiny wasn't enough, we also examine other storylines tucked in the episode: What happened to Anders? Was Romo's appearance worthwhile? And what is happening to Galactica?

The bloody mutiny in "The Oath" made for a taut, tension-filled episode. Besides cheering the return of Starbuck's ass-kicking ways, we appreciated Gaeta's orchestrations while lamenting his lost morality. We wonder, who left is redeemable?

Contains small spoiler about Helo and Sharon (first mentioned in our Tahmoh Penikett interview).

After the powerful, moving brilliance of the last episode, "A Disquiet Follows My Soul" was a letdown, although we had varying reasons why we felt that way. For one in the Quorum, it hinted at an all-too familiar plot path. For another, it was another setup episode.

And the Nicky resolution? Cop out! Plus, why Gaeta's role is a bad thing on a couple levels.

The final episodes begin impressively with "Sometimes A Great Notion." Among the many bombshells, we discuss Cylon Earth, Starbuck's eerie discovery and Leoben's reaction, Dee's suicide, and oh yeah... the identity of the Fifth Cylon. What an episode!

We also tell about our trip to Los Angeles for the BSG Prop Auction and all the activities that we saw and participated in. A few L.A. podcasts are in the production pipeline--watch for those in the coming weeks. It was also great meeting online friends in person for the first time!

We ventured to sunny L.A. for the BSG Prop Auction and the Frak Party Premiere, and recorded a co-podcast with Matt and Nat from BSGCast about the shocking new BSG episode. This is the audio from the video podcast. Richard Hatch makes an appearance, too!

We got a ton of interviews and material from the weekend, and have also recorded our own discussion the episode with the usual Quorum. That will be following shortly.

In our second Townhall podcast we discuss the conclusion of the Gaeta webisodes. We then revisit Fifth Cylon theories one final time before stating our predictions, hopes, and expectations for BSG's last ten episodes.

We continue our discussion of the pre-Season 5 webisodes and gripe about spoilers in the writer commentary. While seemingly a standalone story, we wonder if this event gives us insight into the Eight's character, and what it could mean for Athena.

Unintended spoilers aside, how do you think this story will end? Will its resolution have any effect in Season 5? How does this webisode compare to previous webisode series?

We discuss the first three parts of the new "The Face Of The Enemy" webisodes. We break apart the individual segments and discuss the reveal about Gaeta's character.

This is our first glimpse of the Rag Tag Fleet since the cliffhanger on the devastated Earth, so we attempt to interpret what it could mean for Season Five.
