Doral, Caprica, Ragnar!8 and cylons in general seemed so much cooler and organised in the miniseries. And they looked like they actually did have a plan.
I always liked the "cylon parties" line as it turned out to be the best way to spot a cylon. Even funnier is the fact that it is true as head!Six is not a cylon and there is only one Chief so they didn't attend cylon parties and could not see anyone/be seen there.
I still can't quite believe Helo survived till the end.
I always wondered how the pyramid league worked. If it was like American ones or was it like football in Europe - each planet with its own league with it's own schedule and then the Champion's league for interplanetary Champion.
I gave up on biology in BSG. Since we know it's all "God(s) did it" the glowing spines etc. can be hadwaved. However the radiation thing is important as that's what Baltar uses to to identify cylons so somehow there is a difference between kinds of radiation they are immune and susceptible to compared to humans. So maybe they are fine with the Colonies. On cylon!Earth it was different as they were there when the bombs exploded (blast clearly kills Caprica). They might just tolerate higher background level. Or keep juicing on the anti-radiation meds.
