Battlestar Galactica To Continue After All
turboflux writes "According to executive producer David Eick, Battlestar Galactica is still an open-ended adventure and it will not be ending after the 4th season as previously reported. Evidently Edward James Olmos jumped the gun on confirming the show would be ending while attending the Saturn Awards this month. Eick goes on to say that the fourth season would actually be 22 episodes (2 more than prior seasons) rather than the reported 13 episode order."
Not to mention that they find out about 20 episodes later that he isn't really dead through a dream of a crew member and they start looking for him (5 episodes), find him in some unprobable place (2 episodes), free him from the cylon prison (1 episode) only to find out that he's a cylon imposter (1 episode) and spend a bit of time trying to hunt him all over the ships (5 episodes), until they corner him and he claims he's a traitor and wants to aid humanity (1 episode), leads them to some fuel depots (2 episodes)...
I think I should ask them if they hire new writers.
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.

Sounds like you write for them already.
I dont read
Please. I got tired of Enterprise when they did more time traveling than Doctor Who!
I'm really hoping for some experimental episodes where the camera just slowly pans up and down Tricia Helfer's body while she tries on different outfits for 40 minutes.
Her cancer's back, so it's safe to watch again!
When all other methods of communication fail, try words.
I don't have a problem with a Cylon based cure. It would have been more interesting to have the president need to eat Cylon fetus periodically to stay alive. Then there would always be an edgy back story about her looking for her next fix.
Just you wait until Doctor Who really gets going.. i hear in future episodes hes going to explore far away worlds like London & Cardiff in the past and present.
6) They find earth, the Cylons kick earth's ass, but Adama and the BSG crew head through the Stargate to the Alpha Site to begin construction on another Battlestar. O'Neill, Thor, and Oma Desala get cameos.
Hey, it could happen.
This post expresses my opinion, not that of my employer. And yes, IAAL.
My god, you have no imagination.
Imagine this: Galactica 2010. Galactica reaches earth, and a small scouting party go to Earth to learn about the culture and try to find a place to live. They have cheesy flying motorcycles and the children have superhuman jumping ability. In the last shows of that series, Starbuck, who was presumed dead in the current series, will be found to not have died, but to have crashed on a Cylon-occupied world, and in his effort to survive, repairs and befriends a cylon (maybe they can become mates, who knows?). It'd be a great show! Really!
What? That's been done before? Shit!
The Christian Right is Neither (Christian nor right). See: Matthew 23, Matthew 25, Ezekiel 16:48-50

(And you younglings think George Lucas raped YOUR childhoods - at least he waited sixteen years; Glen Larson only waited nine months.)
Nah. I hear they're going to do a spinoff focusing on the zany adventures of one of the private freighters in the fleet and its wisecracking crew. They're going to run dubious cargos and take on odd jobs, all while staying just one step ahead of the Colonials and the Cylons. The tentative title is "Lightning Bug."
