Warning: This thread has spoilers for episodes 1 to 13!
Now that we've seen them all, what should we watch for when rewatching the mini-series and all the episodes? Here are my thoughts...
"Adama is a Cylon.": A) Watch to see if Loeben is at all trustworthy, in even a tricky sense. B) Watch for evidence that Apollo or his father is a Cylon.
Starbuck-n-Apollo: It makes dramatic sense that either Starbuck or Apollo, but not both, should be a Cylon. Watch for clues!
Billy-n-Dualla: Again probably one or the other is a Cylon. Watch them!
Assassin's assassin: Who assassinated the assassin in Colonial Day? Watch for evidence of a subversive group other than Zarek's.
Gaeta: Is Gaeta a Cylon? Or other subversive? Or writers' patsy? Watch this weasly character's facial expressions when he is in the background. Watch his attitudes with regards to Boomer and Baltar.
Color: What does the color of the Cylons' clothes indicate? (Ignore internal Six.)
Plan: Is there any evidence that the Cylons are pulling their punches, and if so, when did this start?
Changes: Watch for changes in the relationships and the Cylon Plan. Look at Doral's opposition to Roslin and Apollo in the mini. Then in episode 13, if the assassination attempt was due to Cylons wanting to protect Roslin, then that's quite a change!
Any other suggestions for stuff to watch for?

I think the likelihood of any of the four major leads also being a sleeper is unlikely. That story is being played out with Sharon and another one would just be repitive.
I also don't think there is anything to suggest that any of the Cylons are body dupes or copies of one original "human"- I believe they are 12 uniquely created models.
I also believe whatever other Cylons there are in the Fleet know damn well, just like Doral did, that they're Cylons.
My guess is still Gaeta.

Damn those pesky Cylons this is just what we were afraid of - everyone worried that there best friend / colleague / pet / potted plant is a cylon sleeper agent! I dont think any of the main/secondary colonial cast are Cylon agents - I think that we are al experiencing the paranoia that the crew is supossed to feel Thats quality writing/directing!

Note who pluralises or fails to pluralise God.

Take note of the details of all religious discussions.
Look for religious symbolism.
