2 out of 2 Cylons agree:

This is good news!

Ya know, I'm not actually happy about this - the producers have said a number of times that a long season leads to a major mid-season lull when they do one-offs to fill the space, and it's lead to some of the weakest episodes in the show. Shorter and more focused might be the way to go.

"The fourth season will premiere in early 2008."

Is next week the season finale? If so, not having any new episodes until 2008 seems retarded.

Cracker_monkey_in_a_cage: If so, not having any new episodes until 2008 seems retarded.

The two-hour TV movie, which I assume it is... hang on, a new Mercury girl commercial just came on... ok, will take place in Q4 of 2007, so it's not quite as long of a break.

Hell even I'd burn that weasel in effigy.

Oh joy, 19 episodes of drama queenism. I got hold of two of next seasons scripts. One deals with Apollo suffering with a hang nail. The other deals with babies teething and diaper rash.

Hurray for next season!

"One deals with Apollo suffering with a hang nail. The other deals with babies teething and diaper rash."

Thats now my new favorite post.
 
2007-03-21 09:43:55 PM
If the episodes are about Lee having a hang nail, I'll be pissed. But a lot of the episodes in Season 3 that annoyed people didn't bother me.

Now, I had the "benefit" or watching most of them all at once, if I had to wait a week in between some of them, I might feel differently. But I haven't yet, so I'm more excited than frustrated by this sort of thing.

Expanded from 20 eps to 22. Plus, the 2 hour movie gets placed
in fall of this year to fill the long space between seasons.

They're going for five seasons, but this might be the last.

If you don't like it anymore, do everyone a favor and quit watching.

If I get to see Rosylin die from breast cancer this time ... it's be worth watching some more.

Yes. I'm so sick of the nay-sayers. The show is well written, well acted, and so damn good it hurts.

They're going to be a lot of pissed off people after this season's cliffhanger finale. I'll even go so far as to say it's more earth shattering than last season's "New Caprica - 1 Year Later" stunt.

So I can space him while the jury is out deliberating the verdict, right?

Frankly I think half of what happens, you know, in the launch tube, wink wink - will turn out to be BS, in a good way.

Let's just try to remember that the Cylons are the bad guys and stop being battlestar EMOtica.
Crimny, I expect to see Apollo starting a MySpace soon.

How many damn ways can you show Cylons attacking, and the fleet barely escaping?

I dunno, but hopefully none of those ways involve Lee doing stupid shiat just because he got into some snarky pissing contest with his daddy again.

The first thing that came to mind when I read the headline, aye.

But if there's an episode of Admiral Adama just glaring into the camera at the audience without saying a word for an hour... I'm so there.

The only thing about BSG is the soundtrack, the composer is a genius. I want to get all the soundtracks for the seasons.

Here's a second not a boy standing by with fire and Baltar pinatas. If I were Roslin, I would have airlocked him at the first opportunity. But the trial has been very cool.

Baltar will be aquited...mark my words! And I'll get to fark/frak Athenea/Boomer.

I bet we see Starbuck again. She didn't die in that Viper explosion, she was tanek away by the entity that was posing as Leoben and the Raider that never showed up on DRADIS. And that faint music only some people can hear? I bet that's her or her new peeps trying to get the fleet's attention.

The heavy raider did show up once on DRADIS, the first time they reported it. I think the music they are hearing is either radio waves from the Colonies being bounced in the system they are near or they are near an outpost of the Earth Colony that are rebroadcasting the Colonies or their own radio.

Agrees. The Mercury Girl (Jill Wagner) is teh hawt!

The move to a 22 episode season will mark the end of the series. What they are doing now is jumping the shark.
 
2007-03-22 08:51:59 AM
I've already read everything that is going to happen in the season finale. Read it here if you dare. It's going to send the show in a whole new direction and most of you will be left with your mouths hanging open and have tons of questions.
 
2007-03-22 08:58:59 AM

well, yeah. she was already in the last episode. watch it again.

I heard the music was Dylan's "All Along the Watch Tower." So cool that is.
 
2007-03-22 09:09:02 AM
The music video's on youtube of starbuck and some guy made me cry.. it was like the ending of titanic all over.. christ I hate crying, but I can't seem to stop.. boowoooooo *sniffle sniffle*.

I just finished season 2 on DVD last night. Is there some way to watch the first part of season 3 quickly? Are they showing re-runs yet?

If you have DirecTV, one of the HD stations is re-running in HD!!!

iTunes. $2 per episode.

Great news. Looks like Sci-fi is going to stand behind this great show. Can't wait for it.

I just wish Sci-Fi had an HD channel. Watching the HD-Net rebroadcast of BG in High-Def is awesome.
 
2007-03-22 09:39:24 AM
"Tunes. $2 per episode."

O.K., thanks! That's more than the "four episodes for $1" at my local video store, but I'll suck it up.

I dared. If the last couple of bits are true, that's farked up.

That's Racetrack alright ... I'd lap it.

How many damn ways can you show Cylons attacking, and the fleet barely escaping?

How many gods damn ways can we see Lee & the rest Emoing it up on screen?

There's more to the Cylons than just attacking. They're an essential part of the show! They've just frakking disappeared for a long time, and all we got was Emo in its place.

I think the humans are not worth redeeming, especially after all the Emo crap. Let the Cylons blow up their pagan asses.

/Baltar was RIGHT!!!!!!

I'll take your canceling Stargate and raise you canceling MST3K.

Those jerks.

...Stargate was too B-movie-ish...I could never take it seriously
 
2007-03-22 10:30:42 AM
I'll see your MST3K and raise you a Farscape.

Maybe Browder and Black are the new Ted McGinleys?
 
2007-03-22 11:21:07 AM
Are they back to blowing stuffs up again yet?

/misses the earth shattering kabooms

The pic of the two cylon chicks make them look like antler bags. Beautiful faces and nice legs, but not much in the way of curves and boobs.

i'll raise you a real female fighter pilot.

I read it too.. I hope the last bits aren't true either. If so.. I don't think I can watch the show anymore. That just doesn't make any fraking sense.
 
2007-03-22 12:10:34 PM
I came late to the party and just last week started watching season one. You guys were right, it is a really good show.

And that pilot episode was one of the best I've ever seen.
