Sorry if this is answered somewhere. I'm afraid to look at search results (and reviews), since I'm trying really hard to avoid spoilers. I'm watching Galactica on DVD only, so I've only seen to the end of Season 2.

I know Razor takes place before Season 3, but does it spoil anything in Season 3. For instance, does it assume that the viewer has watched season 3 and casually mention some cylon who wasn't revealed to be a cylon until season 3?

Will watching "Razor" now, destroy my enjoyment of season 3 in any way, shape or form? Should I just watch these in the order they originally aired, and therefore wait for season 3 on DVD?

Thanks....and no spoilers for season 3. Please.

Don't watch the broadcast version. There's a promo for S4 that is a major spoiler.

Jeez are the folks at Sci-Fi/Universal morons. If they knew they were going to release this on DVD so quickly, couldn't they at least have given those of us who missed the broadcast version of S3 the DVDs to get caught up?

On the subject, it was discussed in another thread about Razor that there is only one trivial spoiler about S3 at then end.

They probably expected you watch watch season 3 as it aired.

Ron Moore says on the commentary of Razor that Universal Home Video specifically asked them to create this as a stand alone feature. There is one new character who has never been seen before and the story gives more background on Helena Cain who you saw in Season 2. However, Moore does say that this movie is being considered Episode 4.1 and 4.2 even though it has really nothing to do with Season 4.

If your going to rent or buy the DVD, there is a Season 4 preview and trailer on it, so don't watch them if your concerned about spoiling season 3 and also don't listen to Ron Mooore's commentary because he is assuming that you have watched season 3.

Pretty stupid considering that the Sci-Fi channel isn't on in every household. Not everyone has cable/satellite and even then not every provider carries that channel. No excuse, they are idiots determined to run their one decent franchise right into the ground.

It was released after season 3 aired. What did you really expect?

rfduncan

I expected that they'd want to boost sales of Razor by having S3 released by now so anyone watching on DVD exclusively could be caught up!

Jason

Except that people watching exclusively on DVD can't watch season three yet.

^^^ reread who you're quoting, rfduncan clearly understands that.
