The whole series was great - fantastic actually. There is, however one thing I suppose I'm confused on; the way I understand it, the original Cylons were created on Kobol by humans, and 4000 years before the events of the mini series, the Cylons all left to establish their own colony, the 13th colony on the proverbial Earth. 2000 years before the events in the mini-series, Kobol experienced some kind of natural catastrophe which caused the remaining human inhabitants to leave and eventually founded Caprica. So it is at this point that I am confused on quite a few details, so let me clarify some definitions first from what I understand:
CYLON-TYPE#1: Humanoid-Robotics Hybrid with artificial intelligence capable of breeding; created on Kobol
CENTURION: Robotics with artificial intelligence; it is suggested the Cylon#1's built them
CYLON-TYPE#2: Humanoid-Robotics Hybrid with artificial intelligence not capable of breeding (requires Resurrection Hub to procreate); Ellen Tye refers to this model however as "Centurions"; created by Cylon#1's, but at an unknown date in the time line
After Samual Anders was shot, before he enters into a semi-catatonic state, he claims the Cylons#1 were the creators of the Centerians and used them as their work-horses which is part of the reason they rebelled. He also states that the Cylons#1 created the Cylons#2, but does not state why.
So Humans find Caprica and create AI in the form of Centurions? Or did the Cylons give them Centerions? How did the humans on Caprica forget about the skin-jobs when they coexisted with them in Kobol? Maybe because 4000 years had passed I presume.
When Elen Tye rejoins the fleet and recants her tale of her previous life on Earth#1, she tells them the final five tried to warn the human colonies on Caprica that the Centenarians were planning an attack. So even though the humans had lost all knowledge of Caprica, the Cylon#1's somehow knew where Caprica was, even though it had been 4000 years since they last had contact with them on Kobol and leaving for Caprica had never even been mentioned to them? Also, does this mean the Cylon#2 were considered to be Centurions by the Cylon#1's? How did the Cylon#2's find Caprica? How did they "forget" about Earth#1's location when they led the assault on it?
