I think the Lucy Lawless character is going to cloud the issue further or make it clear on whether Galactica Sharon is truly not acting on behalf of the cyclons. It really depends on if they ever address whether Sharon saw the broadcasts or not. I'm going to be wondering the rest of the season.

I figured this would be a clone of the B5 episode with the reporter as well when I first read about it and it pretty much was.
I agree the scene with Baltar and Six pretty much gave away Lucy Lawless, who looks great as a blonde, was a cylon.

Lucy Lawless looks so much better with blonde hair, and she also doesn't bare any real resemblance to Xena anymore, so that was a smart move on her part to change her look to such an extent.
Nice twist at the end, I wonder if

Hmmmm, I guess I could agree that this was the weakest episode yet, but that still ranks it as "great" in my book. I didn't see the cylon thing coming (actually figured it was the camera dude), and I don't think the baby was born....she was just having some problems during the early part of her pregnancy. That isn't uncommon.

I have mixed feelings on this episode. Just felt too much like a filler episode before the break BSG goes on after 2x10. Did not see the Lucy Lawless = cyclon thing coming at all, simply because I thought she was only a guest character for one show. First episode this season where I haven't watched it a second time by the end of the weekend yet...though, this episode did have a sweat drenched Starbuck working out on a punching bag, so I guess it wasn't all bad.

Well, I doubt Ms. Lawless has anything better to do with her time these days, so she might as well do as many genre shows as she can while she still has her looks.
