Episode #86 - “Gravedancing”
Perhaps the most charming part of “Gravedancing” was the dancing Cylon. While the issue of the Holoband’s effects on youth was interesting, watching the Graystones squirm on a studio set was hardly gripping. And did you really think there were going to kill off Amanda?
At this point, what characters are drawing you in? Do you mind seeing actors from BSG in different roles on Caprica?
The Quorum consisted of Brian, Dimitry, Matthew, and Michele.

Episode #85 - “Reins Of A Waterfall”
“Reins Of A Waterfall” showed a little improvement and story potential, but we’re still waiting for the show to elevate to the next level. This week, listeners weigh in with early reviews of the series so far, mostly negative. We ask what’s missing–is it the lack of sci-fi? And how do you define sci-fi?
We also question what the producers were thinking when they first conceived the show’s tone being “ironic.” They acknowledge that they’ve made some changes…what would you change?
Be sure to listen to our new podcast, covering all things sci-fi: The Geek Quorum.
The Quorum consisted of Brian, Jason, and Dimitry.

Episode #84 - “Rebirth”
We knew “Rebirth” couldn’t match the amazing “33” as a series opener, but we still had hopes for more. It’s a character show, and we examine the various choices they make.
We look ahead to what this type of show will be, and whether it has mass appeal–all the while, still pining for the show we wish they had made, about the first Cylon war.

Here’s a photo from the screener that shows Amanda’s cut, that was removed in the final edit.

Episode #83 - “The Plan”
“…and they have a plan.” Unfortunately “The Plan” doesn’t deliver a satisfactory answer to the question that has been facing us at the start of every episode.
We discuss the actual plan (or lack thereof), Hera’s absence, and Cavil’s role as the mastermind. Among the bright spots, we examine Boomer’s struggle and Simon’s better-late-than-never characterization.
We also ponder the climate into which Caprica will be emerging. Has the passion among the BSG fanbase dimmed?

Episode #80 - “Dollhouse”
We review Dollhouse Season One, from the pilot script all the way to the unaired (but fabulous) “Epitaph One.” We take both a closeup and wide angle look at the season, summarizing each episode and examining the main story arcs and mysteries.
We lament some of the character and story choices that led to the rocky start of the first several episodes, but the momentum leading up to the season finale gives us confidence that the series has found its footing.
Imprinted to act like Quorum podcasters were Brian and Michele, with a short appearance by Jason.
