Fanon/Live-Action TV: Difference between revisions

mNo edit summary
 
Line 6:
* There was also a very common misconception that Tigh and Adama had served together during the First Cylon War. This was actually shown not to be the case in Season 2, Episode 1, Scattered. They met years after the war, on a freighter. It apparently didn't register with many fans, which is why there was a general uproar when {{spoiler|Tigh turned out to be a Cylon}}.
* No one's ever said there are twelve Lords of Kobol, but it's taken for granted by many a fan. Given that they've mentioned gods outside the traditional twelve Olympians and have only used "Lord of Kobol" as a synonym for "god", not a subset, there are probably more than twelve. ''The Caprican'' establishes that Illumini, the second major city on Gemenon, is built around a huge pantheon devoted to dozens of deities.
** In the [[Battlestar Galactica (1978 TV series)|Original Series]] episode "Lost Planet of the Gods", it is explained that the Lords of Kobol were the leaders of that highly advanced civilization until they are wiped out in a vaguely-mentioned ecological disaster. Long afterward, they were deified by their descendants, the inhabitants of the Twelve Colonies. The last Lord of Kobol was the Ninth Lord of Kobol, into whose tomb Adama enters looking for a map to Earth (which he finds, and which is then immediately destroyed when the Cylons attack Kobol). Side-note: In order to enter the tomb, Adama uses his Council of Twelve Badge of Office as a key. The other surviving Council Members also had them, but didn't seem to realize their true significance, and Council Members elected after the Destruction didn't have them.
* Leah Cairns (the actress who played Racetrack) mentioned in several interviews that she believed her character had [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]] with Helo (who was a former Raptor pilot himself), and that she purposely played Racetrack in this mindset during the show. It's never been overtly suggested what's going on between Racetrack and Helo (even though there are a couple of broad hints), but most fans consider that fact canon.
