I stay on top of most info regarding my fav shows and this was "new news" to me.

Well, it's not exactly "old news", but it has been discussed here before, last week in fact.

The news is somewhat sad, but honestly between the mini series and four seasons, that is a good run for a sci fi show. It is far more than many get.

I like BSG. I wouldn't call myself a big fan, certainly not to the extent I am a browncoat, but I enjoy the show. It will be sad to see it go as there is so little good sci fi on tv now, but as Hell's Kitten pointed out there is rumors of a D2DVD movie. There is also "Razor" the made for tv movie of the adventures of the Pegasus from the time of the Cylon attack on the Colonies up to them meeting Galactica. There was also talk of a spin off called "Caprica". Not sure where that stands since there seems to have been little news since the creators announced it on SciFi.com a while back.

Because, according to some people who work on the show, it is very expensive and not enough people were watching.
Same old song and dance.

Yeah, I love it all. It's sort of bittersweet ending after season 4. I know it will allow the writers to really follow the intended story arc and avoid "jumping the shark," but it's still sad that it won't be on anymore.

Has anyone heard, is August still the tentative date set for the Season 3 DVD release? I haven't heard anything in about two months and you'd think they'd announce it soon if it was still August.

I've heard contradicting stories for the past couple of months but this definitely seems final, the story was certainly beginning to come to its conclusion.

With regards to season 3 I was listening to one of the Ron Moore podcasts and he said that the beginning of season 3 on New Caprica forced them to do more "bottle episodes" later on in the series so that they fell within budget. This resulted in the series becoming more internalised.

I think that series 4 will be incredible probably very story arc centric, especially given the events of the series 3 finale. Unfortunetly living in the UK means that if I dont want to find out what happens in series 4 I will have to cut myself off from any battlestar related sites from the second the new series starts in the US.

I once enjoyed the show, it had a very good pilot with good actors and clever subplots like revealing Boomer as a Cylon but the show got worse over time. I don't hate the show, I really like the Universal folk that help bring us Serenity's Big Damn Movie but as much as I want to like Universal's BSG, I just can't enjoy the show anymore.

The Bob Dylan season finale had to be one of the dumbest cliffhangers/season-ending of all time. BSG lost its greatness a long time ago, and it is nothing more than a dull soap
it has squandered most of its potential

They are going to have to work really hard to explain where they got a Bob Dylan/ Jimi Hendrix song. That whole thing makes no real sense other than being there just to provide a "twist".

I think its good they are wrapping it up. When a show knows it is wrapping up, they can really direct things to a conclusion and get the opportunity to give fans a satisfying ending (not that all shows that know they are ending do that, but at least they get the opportunity). Shows in limbo that end never give you a satisfying ending.
