Battlestar Galactica's End Officially After Season 4 356
Ant writes "First it was off, and then it was back on. Yahoo is now reporting on a release put out by David Eick and Ronald Moore stating that they will conclude Battlestar Galactica at the end of Season 4. They said it was a creative decision, and that they wanted to end the show on their own terms. The show was always planned with a definite beginning, middle and end, unlike many other sci-fi shows and dramas. Sci Fi Channel has accepted the decision. The news had been foreshadowed this spring through statements from stars Edward James Olmos and Katee Sackhoff. Ronald Moore himself had said that the show was heading into its final act, although he said the final act could be one or two more seasons. Now we know that the final act will last for one season. The special 2-hr. episode 'Razor' starts off the season in November. The first regular episodes of Season 4 will air in early 2008."

Then executive producter David Eick directly contradicts Olmos and says that Battlestar is an open-ended adventure and that Season 4 WON'T be the final season, but there is the possibility of having more seasons. http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/05/12/124725 6 [slashdot.org]
Now, David Eick (and Ronald Moore) says, Oh, JK, what I actually meant to say is that we have no idea what we're doing and we finally decided that Battlestar really is going to end after Season 4. I enjoy watching this show and the fact that its confirmed to end will hopefully make it interesting as they now have the freedom to kill off major characters and finally give the viewers the definitive end they've been waiting for, but with this kind of mis-management, who knows what will happen.
Stay tuned for more post-season drama as we discover that nobody at Battlestar Galactica knows what the hell is going on with their own show...

I bet if they used SFTP engines instead the cylons would have a harder time hacking into their computers.
