Too Much Confusion Here?? Ronald D. Moore Gives His Post-3.X GALACTICA Interviews!!

“Battlestar Galactica” mastermind Ron Moore is talking, and he’s answering a lot of questions the fans are asking after Sunday night’s third-season finale.

In an interview with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Rob Owen, Moore reveals that, yes, Galen Tyrol, Saul Tigh, Sam Anders and Tory Foster are indeed four of the “final five” Cylons. But Moore also cautions that they are “fundamentally different Cylons.”

I'll say! Bill Adama and a lot of others in the colonial fleet witnessed Saul Tigh serving in Cylon War I 40 years ago. He may have even been around before the “invention” of the toaster centurions!

Which begs the question, “What are Cylons”? The opening of the show each week tells us that they were “created by man” and that they “evolved” and that they “have a plan.”

But. The Final Five Cylons were lurking in the Eye of Jupiter, an edifice supposedly built by human ancestors (or gods, or something) 3,000 years before the toasters were supposedly “invented.”

The proposed “Caprica” prequel series, set 50 to 70 years before “Galactica,” would center on civil rights attorney Joseph Adama (Bill’s dad) and his opposition to the early Cylon-creating efforts of somebody named “Greystone.” So was Greystone a Cylon? Was he somehow influenced or directed by Cylons all those years ago to create these robots? And if so, why?

And how long ago did the Final Five Cylons “evolve”? And how long has “the plan” been in place?

I read this article as well.. It sems as if ol' Ron Moore really wanted to get our minds going in a few different directions. Beware, him and Eick are both known for feeding us info to lead us into (and away from knowing) the upcoming twists. I can't say that I blame them as that is the fun for us and for them.

However we all have to admit. While some are upset with season 3 in general, the BSG gang has left the field wide open as to where they can go with this. It almost seems as if they are rushing the earth into our near future, I am really curious how they will push that off into the end of season for or a possible season 5 (I know it looks doubtful for 5 but we can hope right?).
