This has been bugging me for a while now. When the final 5 were having flashbacks on the original Earth it looked as if they were all living peacefully with humans, who nuked the Earth then? Were the others in the flashbacks a mixture of human and cylon living together or a humanoid cylon dominated world?
I wish they'd explained the destruction of the original Earth more clearly. Does anyone have a better grasp of this before I start plowing through the programs again even though I have the feeling that isn't explained.

My understanding is that the 13th Colony was ENTIRELY Cylon (i.e. there were no humans there at all). From the time they left Kobol they were a purely Cylon tribe, which possibly explains why they left Kobol thousands of years before the other tribes, and went in a completely different direction.
We also know that the Cylon tribe on Earth started creating their own Centurions at some point, so the war that annihilated Earth was probably either a) humanoid Cylons vs. centurion Cylons, or b) an inter-Cylon war -- it's quite possible the Cylons couldn't live with each other in peace, even after thousands of years.
Really, all we know for sure is that the 13th Colony was fast approaching its doom, and 5 individuals experienced visions forewarning them of the apocalypse, so they took action to recreate resurrection and thus survive. After that, the 5 retraced the steps of their ancestors back to Kobol (leaving clues to the location of Earth along the way), and finding Kobol uninhabited, followed the path of the 12 human tribes to the Colonies, where they found the human-Cylon war already in progress...

Gone without a trace (save Hera's mDNA)? Not so much...

Just watched part of the rerun of the finale, catching at the start of the Galactica-As-The-Opera-House scene, and noticed something I hadn't noticed last week. When Galactica jumps to our Earth, she's blowing off large chunks of herself over the Moon. In realistic terms, those pieces of wreckage would deorbit and be scattered all over the surface after 150,000 years. With no atmosphere to stop them, the metal fragments would survive the trip down and be partly preserved. Alternate Earth Humans are going to find hard evidence of "some" civilization having been to the Moon before them. Perhaps one of those hull plate fragments will even say "Battlestar Galactica" on it... ;-)

I want to know what everyone's thoughts are on specifically, the final words that the writers wrote.
"frakk it," would be good. XD
"this has all happened before, and will happen again." would be frakked up. :rofl:
Thoughts anyone?

Interesting that "Frak it!" wasn't too far off, as far as Cavil is concerned.
I loved that the last lines of the series were essentially delivered by Jimi Hendrix.

I mean, by the end of the show, we've jumped 150,000 years into the future (to our present day), so technically, at the very end, everyone is dead, expect for Head Six and Head Baltar, and maybe Starbuck 2.0.
THIS QUESTION IS SPECIFIC TO THE DVD GIVEAWAY

"And I think you meant to say that the outcome of the contest is NOT affected by how Starbuck is scored.
" Quite so. In fact, the 12 highest-scoring entries all voted the same way on Kara Thrace, so toggling her from "lived" to "died" doesn't change a thing. And really, the only character that we *know* dies based on the flash-forward is Hera (who's not even on the ballot). Come to think of it, we don't even really know *that* for sure, do we?

I just watched Daybreak part 2 again. It flashed back to Leoben telling Kara "When I look at you now I dont see Kara Thrace, I see an angel blazing with the light of god... angel"
HAHA!
Right before she jumps them out she says "there must be some kid of way out of here" lol
