BSG - Who are the Final Five?

[Technomancer]

Leoben already said that Adama is a cylon. We don't know which Adama. Probably the departed brother.

Like Ankh-Morpork Guard mentioned, I think anyone with a known child or a parent can be ruled out (Tyrol, Cally, Lee, Bill, & Zak). Unless one of the Adama brothers was adopted.

I don’t know how close the writers are going to stick to real-world Greek myths, but there weren’t really any “trickster” figures (like Loki or Coyote) among them. All the gods caused havoc, even Apollo, who otherwise is thought of as being a god of rationality and order. There were minor deities of madness, chaos and fear, but they were minor and still did not fulfill this trickster/chaos-bringer role.

Well, Hermes fits the trickster image pretty well (even though his tricks were mostly on Apollo), but otherwise, yeah.

Or replaced. Or used as a the model.

Really? Hmph. What about human/cylon hybrids that have been around for a while in secret? Maybe when Caprica airs, we'll get to see a bit more of the humanoids' origin.

The only thing is that would completely invalidate the whole importance of Hera...

...but then again, maybe that's why the final five are not known.

SPOILER WARNING
.
.
.
(...)
Here are my picks:

Colonel Saul Tigh: Simply for TV drama and effect. Arguably the one that hates Cylons the most, and hates himself at the same time. Coincidence? I think not.

Petty Officer Anastasia Dualla: She is in competition with Starbuck for Lee's heart. Starbuck is probably the Chosen One, so interesting symmetry. And she's too cute to be human.

Lt. Felix Gaeta: Always in a position close to those in power. Maybe his machine-like efficiency (and affinity with machines) extends beyond appearances...

Tom Zarek: The guy you love to hate. And an ambitious cold-hearted troublemaker. Maybe too obvious, or maybe not.

Oracle Selloi: Beirs was surprised by one of the Five, and recognized her with an incredulous "You!". The Oracle did a good job of spooking her on New Caprica...

Your turn.

Darn, only one right...

Andargor,

I would not vote yourself down yet. I don't think we know the whole truth about the Final 5 cylons yet, and I am not sure what was revealed at the end of Season 3 is

A) Actually true

B) Everything we need to know

Cheers

 

[Mistwell]

So, there is at least one additional human-cylon baby now...

 

[The Grumpy Celt]

Eric Noah is the missing member of the Final Five Cylons.

 

[Darrin Drader]

I think its time that that we all finally accept the fact that I am a cylon.
