Battlestar 4 to go the distance
At long last , the SciFi Channel’s embattled Battlestar Galactica has received a renewal for a full 22 episode fourth season.
A partial renewal order of 12 episodes was given several weeks ago after what was perceived as a near-cancellation. The show performs well enough in the ratings, but is extremely expensive to produce.
According to TVWeek, the fourth season will include a special two-hour "event". The third season concludes this Sunday.
I hope season four answers more questions than season three did. Having to wait until 2008 for it to start and knowing that negotiations for season five will be harder than the decision to make season four, how about we wrap it up and have cylons and humans find a way to live together on Earth. Maybe it's time to let the spirit of Lorne Greene stop wondering the galaxy and be at peace.
