So I was submitting fandoms for Yuletide and thought, there needs to be bsg rpf, just cause. So to make sure I didn't miss anyone important while I was typing up their names, I pulled up the cast list over at imdb. Note to self: Never frakking do that ever again! It's possible that I just spoiled myself for the big, big, BIG spoiler that everyone, everyone, EVERYONE has been avoiding.


So why is the actor who played Zak Adama in one (count 'em, ONE!) episode in season one, credited with four episodes?

IT HAD BETTER NOT BE THE ANSWER I THINK IT IS!

I actually don't really want to know more than I've already seen. But to me, Zak is just a name. I don't know him and I don't want him to be... well... you know!

There's gotta be another explanation. Otherwise there's going to have to be some serious convincing going on.

Oh, so you saw that too? I think it's probably just an error, but who knows.

Also, there definitely needs to BSG rpf -- that's what I submitted anyway.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

I did! *pouts* I hope it's either an error or something like flashbacks or visions or... I dunno something! *sigh*


*waves pompomps half-heartedly for bsg rpf*

Would you like me to lie to you and tell you you're wrong? I'm not spoiled, and often IMDB is incorrect...but...it looks pretty real.

ETA: IMDB posted that he was in those episodes in August. Not sure if that gives it credence for being correct but just thought I would let you know.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

I am all for bringing Zak back. But not as the final cylon. Any more I just don't want to know!

[sionnain.livejournal.com]

I saw that, too. !!! I think too that maybe he's in some flashbacks? But I think it could be very possible he's the...you know.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

I hope it's something like that. I don't want him to be the you know!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Sigh. I wish that were true in this case.

[spooky-xphile.livejournal.com]

I'm slightly spoiled because it says so on the BSG wiki. So if you want to know.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Wait they post the identity of the final on bsg wiki? UGH. Another place to avoid until March or whenever the series is set to end. And no, I really don't want to know! I'm pissed I know this much!

[workswithwords.livejournal.com]

No, they just list Tobias Mehler as a guest star. But they do say that its from IMDB and thus not credible...

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Well that's comforting! Sorta...

I can't tell what I'm more worried about, the outcome of the election, or who the final cylon will be, lol.

[workswithwords.livejournal.com]

Hahaha I totally know what you mean. Aaron Douglas told us that he was telling everyone a different answer when someone would ask him just to be evil. Lol.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Haha that totally sounds like something he would do.

[cylune9.livejournal.com]

I'm 99% sure it's not him. The name has been on imdb for months.

There's been talks of extensive flashbacks during the last episodes. That's probably why his name is there.

And yep, I'd be very disappointed too if it's him.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

There's been talks of extensive flashbacks during the last episodes. That's probably why his name is there. → Oh, I love you! *glomps you liek woah* This makes me feel SO much better.

[greycoupon.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't freak out. That would be mighty stupid way for something like that to slip out.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

It really, really, would. *crosses fingers for the flashback thing* Until I know for sure I'll choose to believe the flashback thing.

[smercy.livejournal.com]

EXTENSIVE FLASHBACKS!
BECAUSE THE ADAMAS ARE FULL OF EMO PAIN AND NEED TO PUNISH THEMSELVES SOME MORE.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Quite true. Haha.

Is it January yet?

[smercy.livejournal.com]

it's not january, but still.
that means UNLIMITED POSSIBILITIES.

[sol-se.livejournal.com]

I agree it's probably flashbacks. Plus, IMDB is not the most reliable source. They had Sean Bean playing Sylar in Heroes for a long time in early season 1. I got all excited.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hehehe, that woulda made me excited too. But that's funny that they had him listed instead of Zachary Quinto (sp?). Stupid imdb!

[lenina20.livejournal.com]

Well, I certainly hope it's an error or it refers to something else as episode. Or there'll be flashbacks. Or time travel. Maybe now that they are on post-apocalyptic earth they can find the goddamned island,

Seriously, though. that would be pathetic. I hated the cylon reveal to begin with but this is too outrageous to be true. It can't be. It can't be.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

It can't be. It can't be. → This is my mantra right now. Just repeating it over and over again in my head.

cylune9's comments above really made me feel much better about the whole thing by the way. :)


ETA: Maybe now that they are on post-apocalyptic earth they can find the goddamned island. - Now that would be something else. I'm afraid we'll only see it in fanfic though. ;)

[gigglemonster.livejournal.com]

Zak?! Whaaaat
It can't be him dude that makes no sense. That'd be silly!
It's gotta be the flashbacks like someone else said. At least I really hope so!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hah, you read it anyway.

[gigglemonster.livejournal.com]

lol i couldn't help it
i'm easy like that

[cujoy.livejournal.com]

That info about Zak being in some episodes has been floating around for awhile. I wouldn't read too much into it. IMDB isn't known for it's reliability.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Yeah I've noticed that about imdb in the past. But the flashback thing does make sense. I'm rooting for that.

[gypsy-sally.livejournal.com]

Half the time IMDB knows not of what they speak. I find them helpful to some degree, but half the time they are just wrong.

I also like the flashback possibility. Go flashbacks!

I would like to at least have SOME real-time previous experience with whomever the final turns out to be. Anything else just seems like a cop-out.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Yeah I agree with that sentiment. IMDB is definitely not always accurate.

Yay for flashbacks!

Right exactly! It would be a total cop-out!
