Having not seen it in quite a while my memories may be fuzzy.  But there was
a question my friends & I had that we never really found an answer to.  Here
goes.

One episode dealt with an evil being that could control things just by thought
alone.  Somewhere along the line he is picked up by the Galactica.  Eventually
they come across a planet that had some kind of massive reckage.  Supposedly
a very large ship crashed there.  Apollo, Starbuck, & Sheba go scouting around.
The evil character had caused this ship to crash.  In the reckage were some
containers, perhaps crew quarters?  Everyone had looked inside.  Sheba had
seemed to be the most distressed about the findings.  What was in there?  What
ship was it?

We guessed that the reckage was that of the Pegasus and the body of Sheba's
father, Cain?, or something else linking it to the Pegasus was inside the
containers.

	Ealier this afternoon, I was just casually watching the tube, when I
was suprised to see an ad for _another_ new SF show coming in January.  This
one's on CBS, and is entitled "Space Rangers," or something of the sort. 
Anybody know anything about this one?  It's the first I've heard of it.
	Sure is a lot of SF stuff coming out all of a sudden though.  I hope
that at least some of it's good, and that people _watch_ the good stuff.  It'd
be nice to have more SF on TV for a change.

I try to make things easier on myself by imagining that when a
Leapee returns to his own time, he remembers what Sam experienced in
his time, and not his own experiences in the waiting room.

Otherwise, the leapee gets into situations that are as awkward as
Sam's.

Imagine the dilemma of the poor leepee in "Moments to Live."

the tv series never really explained it 

the novel "WAR OF THE GODS" explains it much better

they had seen a "crew member" under some debris in the ship wreckage

from page 138:

..the body underneath was shattered and burned, but its form was recognizable.
It was large, twice as large as a human. It had a head, 2 arms and 2 legs, but
there any resemblence to human form ended. Its torso, although flattened by the
piece of metal that had fallen upon it, was grotesquely large and
misshapen...blah..blah..and there were horns upon its head, sprouting from just
above the eyes..blah..blah..the body was in advanced state of decomposition and
the smell was overpowering.. the thing had hooves and a long prehensile tail

blah..

this is where sheba moved forward to look but starbuck and apollo etc told her
not to

the way the series depicted it.. it left it to your imagination what they were
trying to protect sheba from.. and rumors it was the pegasus naturally began

 JB> We guessed that the reckage was that of the Pegasus and the
 JB> body of Sheba's father, Cain?, or something else linking it to the
 JB> Pegasus was inside the containers.

count Iblis was a creature that was "large" had hooves and horns on head and
cas called "the price of darkness" by apollo just before he "struck" apollo
down "killing" him (and later resurected by the "gods")

in that same ep. earlier on.. Iblis had told sheba that cmdr cain and the
pegasus still survive and that she will one day meet him again..

hope the above is of help.. highly recommend you purchase Battlestar Galactica
#7 "WAR OF THE GODS".. well worth reading.. and does fill in many of the blanks
left open in that ep..

Originally, the season finally was going to be animated, and the animation
company that did Akira had been contracted to do the animation.  However,
last I heard the episode had been scrapped, quite possibly due to budget
problems.

If they un-scrap it (which I don't think likely).  Tommy Thompson was
going to write it.

	I read the novel version of this episode (War of the
Gods, co-authored by Glen Larson).  It said that Apollo et. al.
saw a dead body with "a cloven hoof".  I guess this means that
it was a ship full of goats, obviously a Satanic reference that
ties into Iblis/Diabolis.  It didn't make that much more sense
than the filmed version.  My assumption is that those
fireball-things downed a ship-full of devils and that Iblis was
the only survivor.
	I myself wonder about Iblis' statement to Sheba that he
would take her to Cain ("I will take you to him.")  Does this
mean that Cain was still alive, or does it mean that Iblis
would eventually make cat-food of her and thereby re-unite them
in death.  (Get it?  Sheba... cat food.  BIG LAFFS!)

"boomer" and "adama" were the 2 original actors in G1980

have ever found about the show. Wasn't there some kind of alien first
mate? I believe he was "demonstrating his native sexual practices" to
one of the women in the show. They both lay down with limbs in the air
(totally separated) and she asks
	"What do we do now?"
	"Wait for the bee"

Agreed.  There could have been some other element for Alexi's
inclusion in the story as a mortal villain.

The flashbacks were among the better ones so far, though.

Here's what I think --

They need to include some rule-breaking in the series
(like two immortals attacking Duncan, or holy ground, or
something to that effect).  That would add some spice to the
affair.

I think they could alleviate the 'Duncan kills YET another
immortal' affair by guest starring two immortals who fight
and (a) kill each other, or (b) one kills the other and then
leaves the city.

But hey!... it's Highlander.  And beheadings are what sells.
And as we all know...

It's better to burn out than fade away.
