If that were true then why did Firefly only last one season and 14 episodes while BSG lasted four seasons and 73 episodes?
I could never get into Firefly. BSG on the other hand was excellent.
The listing doesn't show double, it is a 1:35 episode followed by that crap show the Magicians.Double episode tonight - set those DVRs

If I haven't seen BSG or Firefly, what other sci-fi series is this closest to?
The second part of the book was way higher paced than the first. I would think season two would be up to the end of book 1.
He kinda died on the Rocinante so James just helped himself to it. We never got to see him actually take it but if you put the elements together you can speculate how it happened.Why did the Mar's guy give Holden the key to the safe?
Are you talking about the Martian Marine or the Earth spy? The Maine was dying and gave the crew access to the ship so they could escape. The earth spy didn't want to get caught by the Martian patrol and he needed to spy on Holden. The codes in the safe were to be used if they were running SpecOps. Remember the ship was a Martian gunship.I rewatched the first series this past week and while I really enjoyed there's a part that I'm really confused on. Why did the Mar's guy give Holden the key to the safe? I had thought it was the info that the Donnager had taken, but that ended up in Fred Johnson's hands via the Mar's guy's corpse. It worked out for them to help open the safe so they could use the codewords to get past the Mars patrols, but it just makes little sense on why he gave to Holden, less why he gave it to him with no info on what it's for and what the code is to open it.

I do love this series. They could have dragged out the whole Navoo thing but they compressed it into one episode and I definitely didn't see the surprise ending coming. It should be really good next week.
Although someone needs to explain the purpose of the bombs to me. If the objective was towhat do you need the bombs for exactly?push Eros into the sun,
My understanding (and i'd have to go rewatch to be sure) was they wanted to seal the docks to stop any ships from attempting to harvest the proto-thingy
Actually, from what I remember from the episode, the bombs were to not only disable the dock from being used, but to essentially fry the whole outer shell of Eros to prevent anyone from even landing on it.
Holy hell that was an amazing episode. And the extended shots of the ship just launching and maneuvering, absolutely beautiful. All aspects, from the communications and coordination of the tugs and the slow steady aspect of the ship getting on its way. That was an incredibly gorgeous sequence of events, and I am incredibly glad they put it in there as they did.
And holy hell, I did not see that ending coming. There are going to be significant repercussions, likely the trashing of the Nauvoo for starters, and the uproar that will cause in the belt with the mormons. And yeah the ship was going to be destroyed anyway, but, if it was a successful mission, the urgency of it and its success could very well tame the uproar. But, now it was just stolen and trashed with nothing good coming of it.
But damn, S02E05 has got to be an amazing episode next week. The rock moved of its own accord because an alien being wished it?! Shit, that can never be good! lol
Was teh Nauvoo trashed? It was launched and sent off but never hit the target. If anything it's possible to recover the ship and put it back in dock. Wouldn't save anyone from the Mormons from getting pissed, but I don't think it's beyond repair... unless I missed something, which is always possible these days.
I don't know why I leapt to the conclusion that the Nauvoo is now unrecoverable. It probably can be steered back home. I had it in my mind that it was like a missile, they had one shot and now the ship is lost. hmm
Now, another question: was everyone still onboard the Nauvoo, intent on remaining onboard during the collision? Wouldn't this be, you know, kind of painful? It's a big ass ship, sure, but that rock isn't like a pebble hitting the windshield... it's more like a car running into a large boulder. There's gonna be significant damage on collision and the occupants will surely be a touch uncomfortable, wouldn't you think?
Or did I miss the occupants leaving the ship in the moments before presumed impact?
Damn, I cannot wait until next week's ep. I want to see Miller inside the rock with the entity. The entity that apparently wants to fling itself toward Earth (its, or its creator's original goal? Shot toward Earth but Saturn's gravity well caught it forever ago...?)
So . . . Julie and Miller. I sorta saw that coming but not the way it ended up happening. It was an interesting take on alien body snatching. The proto-molecule seems content to be governed by Julie's consciousness and emotions. Sort of like a baby chick imprinting on its parent - only more Vulcan mind meld-y. In theory, since the PM now has what it needs from Julie, it should leave Miller alone. That's my prediction for next season.
