The 5th Cylon is Jennifer Lopez as Selena
Crazier things have happened. Sorta. Here’s how it shakes down: Just like it happened here on Earth, on Aquaria, J-Lo as Selena is murdered by her fan club manager. The only difference is that she was brought back to life by her manager/battlestar commander/secret adoptive father, Bill Adama. She goes into seclusion to recover from the almost-fatal gunshot wound only to emerge years later on one of the many starships in the fleet as the final Cylon.
Why it works:
Selena’s great. She’s funny, smart, cute and has musical talent. Besides, we’d all love to watch J-Lo as Selena the Cylon on Battlestar, wouldn’t we? Six would get all jealous and Baltar would start seeing J-Lo in his head all the time instead of Caprica-Six. Does J-Lo as Selena the Cylon’s spine glow red when she gets worked up, sexually? I can guarantee a bunch of you would watch to find out. If it’s all about ratings and money, this might be a good call.
And, come to think of it, we’ve never really met a musically inclined Cylon, have we? Could J-Lo as Selena the Cylon be responsible for having created the music that the previous four Cylons(Tigh, Anders, Foster & Tyrol) heard and drew them together? Maybe?
Finally, who among us hasn't been looking forward to seeing Edward James Olmos and J-Lo together again on-screen? For some reason their stars just shine brighter when they're together.
Why it doesn’t work:
Not a clue. Seems like J-Lo as Selena the Cylon would be a perfect fit for the 5th Cylon. Duh.
Odds that I’m right:
