Can’t wait until it starts and yet sadden that it will be the final season. Perhaps they’ll change their minds and continue the series.

Bah. I was hoping they would postpone starting the fourth season until such time as I could actually watch it… As it is now, I will be two months behind the curve, and that hardly works well. Either way, SciFi could be worse – they could be Fox… many a science fiction television fan will never forgive that particular company.

I agree, however, that shows should definitely be terminated before they start dragging incessantly… SG1 was just getting stupid towards the end.

Actually, I’m glad it’s wrapping at four; sure five seasons would have been great but I hate it when a show drags on and on past when it was truly awesome.

Ref Stargate SG1.

Must be the standard SciFi five season contract — you only get four actually.

If you have Netflix, you don’t even have to spend extra money to watch the first 3 seasons.

Point of trivia:

Why does all the paper have the corners removed? When they were shooting the pilot/movie, SciFi was leaning on the producers to “cut corners” on cost. This was a silent protest.

Ron Moore (exec producer) has a killer podcast.

Marko likes to compare McCain to Col. Tigh, which is funny. I of course geeked out further and found a BSG character for each candidate. It’s in the archive.

The show started when I didn’t have TV so we got it on DVD. SciFi Channel, in all their wisdom, have decided to release Season 3 AFTER season 4 starts. I’m not happy w/ them.

I can’t wait for the show to continue either. However, I’m disappointed that they’re finishing it after 4 seasons, I believe the creators intended to run 5 seasons. Apparently it’s too expensive for SciFi’s limited budget. They have no problem churning out those crap movies they show every Saturday nite.

I never even bothered trying to watch Battlestar Galactica. SciFi Channel pissed me off when they canceled Farscape, so I just dropped them completely.
