SPOILERS!

So, about Daniel, the 7. Apparently he was an artist. The only thing we know about Starbuck's dad is that he was an artist. Could it be? That'd make Starbuck the first Cylon/human hybrid, which could mean why her mother insisted she's so special.

Also, Caprica (the new TV show) will feature Daniel and his backstory. It will also tell the backstory of the mechanical Cylons and how they 'found God'. And apparently the creator of the mechanical Cylons is called Daniel. I highly doubt that's a coincidence.

No matter what, the 7 will be interesting to follow.

Daniel is Model 7. The line John destroyed. The 13th Cylon. But they alluded to Daniel himself possibly being alive.

There is no Daniel. The seven skinjobs are the Significant Seven, but the Shareon (Boomer) model is an Eight. There used to be a Seven, but the One model (Cavil, the priest) destroyed that entire line out of jealousy.

And than it could be Starbuck's dad. I also like the idea he might be the one who created the mechanical Cylons.

I also toyed with the idea of him being, or being related to Baltar.

We already figured out about the mechanical cylons. Humans created them. We then treated them like shit, so they rebelled. It has happened before and it will happen again.

The final 5, led by Ellen Tigh, created the other 8 model cylons, including Daniel. He couldn't have created the mechanical cylons.

so the 7 has never been seen on screen then right?

I think he did. I've read it somewhere and I think the creator of the show said it.

That would make no sense after what they told us.

They said the final 5 came to the 12 colonies, and convinced the mechanical cylons to end the original war, by offering them flesh bodies, and ressurection.

That's assuming they are one and the same.

Yes, that indeed is assuming. That's also something I've made very clear: it could be.

Ausiello of EW posted a couple sneak preview clips for next week.

I never watch those. Like I don't watch the intro part where they show parts of the show.

Really? Boooo.

Must remember not to look at this thread between Friday and Tuesday.

I'm thinking we will see Daniel or have seen him already. I was toying with the idea that Daniel is Starbuck or the remaining essense of Daniel went into Starbuck.

I'm of the believe that Anders has flatlined, but downloaded elsewhere.

On Earth? I'd bet earth is still a ressurection hub.
