Sometimes a Great Notion

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Scouting the planet reveals that there is no life except plants. The destruction occurred about 2,000 years earlier. Among the ruins, skeletons and wrecks of a different kind of Centurions are found. But closer examination of the skeletons reveals they are Cylon! Could the 13th Tribe really have been all Cylons? Chief Tyrol, Colonel Tigh, Sam Anders and Tory remember living on the planet and dying there.

Our Take

This one earns its reputation: tight writing, real stakes, and a payoff that lands. Peak Battlestar Galactica.
