The Hybrid is played by Campbell Lane, which is kind of amusing metacinematically since he once played an alien inside a human body on ''[[Alienated (TV series)\|Alienated]]'' (S2). This is also the first appearance of a male Cylon Hybrid, and as a very aged, patriarchal male at that. Previously shown, female Hybrids were young, female humanoids, who resembled Samantha Morton's [[precog]] character in ''[[Minority Report]]''.

'''''Battlestar Galactica: Razor''''' ([[2007]]) is a two-hour television special belonging to the continuity of the new ''[[Battlestar Galactica (2004)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' series.

It was developed by Ronald D. Moore, written by Michael Taylor and directed by Félix Enríquez Alcalá.

== Summary ==
{{spoiler}}
The special follows two main timelines: a "present day" story set during Lee Adama's early command of the Battlestar Pegasus, and a series of [[flashback]]s to the events set on the Pegasus after the Cylon's attack on the human Colonies. (There are also a few flashbacks to one of William Adama's missions during the first Human-Cylon war.)

When William Adama appoints Lee Adama as Commander of the Pegasus, Lee promotes Lieutenant [[Kendra Shaw]] to Major and appoints her as his Executive Officer.
