BSG

I came to the party late, but have grown to love it. I've seen all of this year's episodes so far but I'm only up through the start of 2.5 in the DVD's, so keeping past and present straight in my head is gettng to be even more of a challenge than usual.

One issue that has me a little confused is how the Six/Sharon faction came to see the humans as possibly not their mortal enemy. Before the Cylon civil war broke out, weren't they the ones who were wanting to turn the raiders loose to wipe out the humans? Obviously their weak position due to Dean Stockwell's surprise attack required temporary cooperation with Galactica, but what's happening now seems to be a lot more than just a temporary tactical alliance. Whence came the 180 degree change-of-heart? Did I get it wrong all along or did their human sympathizer status pop up out of the blue?

I'm just sad that it has to end so soon after I finally got onboard (maybe not so soon in literal terms - heard a rumor that the last shows may be pushed into 2009).
