What do you guys think? Those two were obviously supposed to be together, but she won't divorce and he won't cheat. Also, those two have hurt each other over and over again, can they really make it work?

I think Apollo goes for the more passionate type girls.

I doubt they'll let them get together, it would take away a major element of dramatic tension on the show. Happiness doesn't make for good television in a drama, lol. This is pure speculation on my part, not a spoiler, but I think that either Dualla or Anders will die, and the guilt of their almost-affair will drive them further apart. That, or Dualla will get pregnant and Apollo will feel obligated to stay with her. But I don't see a happy ending anytime in the near future for Starbuck and Apollo. They both have an awful lot of growing up to do before they could handle a relationship with all the baggage they've got between them.

That sounds like the more plausible scenario.

Which it's all is ironic. I forgot until yesterday, that in the original Battlestar, Starbuck is a guy and the new producers made her into a girl. I guess they wanted to add this possibility (Starbuck and Apollo hooking up) as future shows.

Yeah, Starbuck in the original was okay. I still wonder why they did that. I mean, sure, Apollo and Starbuck tension is good, but not great.

They should either put them together or end the romance all together. The writers have in my opinion used up this arc of there rlationship. Either put them together in a commited relationship or have then amicably call it off. It was a good arc but it has run its course if it stays the way it is.

I think you're right. The writers have used up this aspect of the story, but you never know. Sometimes tension like this can last. Ever see X-Files?

After seeing 10x17 it doesn't look like it is going to matter much one way or the other. I thiknone of their spouses were going o have to be killed off, probably Starbuck's for them to get back together.
