Battlestar Galactica Ending Next Season
June 1, 2007 Comments
A nasally, high-pitched cry was heard around the world today as the executive producers of Sci Fi's Battlestar Galactica announced that the fourth season of the acclaimed series will be its last, sending Edward James Olmos back to the streets. A statement explained the creative decision:
This show was always meant to have a beginning, a middle and, finally, an end. Over the course of the last year, the story and the characters have been moving strongly toward that end, and we've decided to listen to those internal voices and conclude the show on our own terms. And while we know our fans will be saddened to know the end is coming, they should brace themselves for a wild ride getting there: We're going out with a bang.
I, for one, am sad for the loss. Though I haven't watched the show, I've heard it's really riveting, and I've enjoyed ignorantly labeling friends as freakish nerds for watching it. Once it's over, I'll probably rent the whole thing on DVD and proclaim it genius. But until then, guess you'll have to start interacting with real humans, nerds!
