The Sci Fi Channel must have heard my cries of pain over the lengthy hiatus we're enduring as we wait for Battlestar Galactica to return in January.  First they announced that they would be super-sizing the final 10 episodes, and now they've released the fantastic news that a BSG TV movie is in the works.  The movie will air sometime after the series wraps up in 2009, but it'll actually take place prior to the miniseries that kicked off the show.  Battlestar Galactica scribe Jane Espenson has written the script, and series star Edward James Olmos has signed on to direct.  This may be the best frakkin' news ever.Read More

Remember Battlestar Galactica?  It's that insanely amazing show on the Sci Fi Channel that disappeared for a hiatus in June and won't return until early 2009.  It can be tough to remember such a fantastic series when it goes off the air for months right in the middle of its final season, presumably so the Sci Fi Channel can air original movies like Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep.  It's been a long, lonely summer without the Galactica crew to keep us company, but it turns out the lengthy wait just might be worth it.  TVGuide.com is reporting that the final 10 episodes of Battlestar Galactica will be extended beyond their usual 42-minute running times, providing fans with extra footage and additional scenes.Read More

It comes as no surprise that there weren't any major revelations about Battlestar Galactica's final episodes unveiled at the San Diego Comic-Con.  The 10 remaining installments of the series won't air until 2009, and executive producers Ron Moore and David Eick are notoriously tight-lipped regarding spoilers.  Even without any huge bombshells, the Comic-Con panel was still a treat for BSG fans.  Actors Katee Sackhoff, James Callis, Tricia Helfer, Michael Trucco, Jamie Bamber and Tahmoh Penikett all appeared at the panel, which was moderated by Battlestar Galactica addict Kevin Smith.

In addition to the BSG stars, the crew brought along a trailer for the final episodes that offered a few interesting glimpses at what's to come.Read More

As a huge fan of Battlestar Galactica, it may take time for me to accept some of my favorite actors in new roles now that the series has finished filming its final episodes.  Will it be strange to see Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck) scrub in and cause trouble during the next season of Nip/Tuck?  Will I keep wondering where Boomer is when I see Tahmoh Penikett (Helo) on Joss Whedon's new FOX series, Dollhouse?  One actor who Americans may not be seeing much of in the near future is Jamie Bamber (Apollo).  The British star recently revealed to Kristin at E!Online that he's signed up for a new version of Law & Order that will take place in his home country of the UK.Read More

The Sci Fi Channel brought two highly anticipated new shows to the TCA press tour: the Battlestar Galactica prequel Caprica and the green-screen heavy Sanctuary.

Additionally, the network gave the official revelation that the final season of Battlestar Galactica will air in January 2009. Sanctuary will premiere in October, and there is currently no set date for Caprica. The executives at Sci Fi are waiting to see the two-hour TV movie to decide whether to air it in the Fall or to save it to air along with the eventual series.Read More

When I first heard that the Sci Fi Channel had ordered a two-hour TV movie spin-off of Battlestar Galactica, I felt a mixture of excitement and confusion.  Though I think BSG is one of the best shows on television and an example of science fiction at its most intelligent, it's also not a big ratings winner for the network.  The show has struggled to find viewers since its first season, so what would compel the network to produce a spin-off?

Thanks to TV Guide I now have my answer.  The spin-off, entitled Caprica, will be set in the Battlestar Galactica universe, but it's going to have a completely different style that's closer to AMC's Mad Men than your typical space opera.  Will BSG fans embrace a new show that focuses more on character drama than sci-fi action?Read More

Last Thursday the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences unveiled the comedy and drama series up for Primetime Emmy nominations. Though those lists were made public, the nominations in the acting categories have been kept secret – though Gold Derby's Tom O'Neil has tapped his sources and sifted through rumors to provide the unofficial top 10 lists of who made the cut.

The Emmy nominations are a two step process. They begin with a popular vote of all eligible ATAS members that determines what actors and which series will be on the top 10 lists. Each of those 10 nominees then submits an episode that best highlights their work and the academy ranks them, with the popular votes and rankings determining which five will be up for an Emmy. Today O'Neil unveiled the rumored top 10 lists of best lead actor and lead actress in a drama series.Read More

For Battlestar Galactica fans, the recent shocking mid-season finale marked the beginning of the end for the raw, dark sci-fi drama that has kept viewers captivated for years. As the surviving humans finally landed on Earth only to discover it to be an irradiated wasteland, the questions on the fans' minds are where will the series go from here? And how can the Battlestar Galactica creators wrap up all the loose ends still dangling from throughout the series' three and a half season run?

Though the final episodes of Battlestar Galactica will air come 2009, rumors are being spread that the end of the series may not be the end of Battlestar Galactica after all. All those stories just bursting to be told might come in another format – TV movies, much like the well-received Razor movie previously produced for the SciFi channel.Read More

Though we won't see the remainder of Battlestar Galactica's fourth season until early 2009, the cast and crew are currently wrapping up the final episodes of the series.  With BSG soon to be a thing of the past, it's time for the ridiculously talented folks behind the show to move on to new projects.  We've already announced that Tahmoh Penikett (Lt. 'Helo' Agathon) will be starring in Joss Whedon's Dollhouse next year, while Katee Sackhoff (Kara Thrace) is moving on to a multi-episode stint on Nip/Tuck.  Now we have word on a few new pilots going into production that will feature the work of other Battlestar Galactica actors and producers.Read More

The San Diego Comic-Con has been a TV fan talking point for years now. Come each summer, our favorite TV show creators and TV stars gather in panels to answer fan questions, discuss behind the scenes goings on and, most excitingly, give sneak peeks of their new seasons. Also making appearances are those with brand new shows they want us to watch and love -- like new genre offerings from such famous talents as Joss Whedon and J.J. Abrams.

This year's Comic-Con is only a few weeks away and Kristin over at E! Online has the tentative panel schedule. With a potential actor strike looming and with the otherwise unpredictable nature of those in the business of show, nothing is set in stone, but it looks like the creators behind all of our favorite hit shows will be making appearances -- and letting slip the juicy advance news we all crave.Read More

Last week, Los Angeles's Cinerama Dome movie theater was host to a screening of Battlestar Galactica's mid-season finale and a Q&A session with some of the actors. Though we weren't able to attend, IGN got to sit down with Six (Tricia Helfer) and Starbuck (Katee Sackhoff) to discuss the impending Battlestar Galactica series finale and what their plans are now that the show is finishing up.

It's not surprising that both of the talented actresses are in high demand, and both discussed their new roles on Nip/Tuck, for Sackhoff, and Burn Notice, for Helfer. They also revealed their reactions to reading the finale script for the first time – and what they have to say may surprise you.Read More

After all this time, a switch went off, just like that. For more than a year now, Battlestar Galactica fans have been pondering the identity of the final Cylon. I've had plenty of theories. At first I was leaning towards Zak Adama, Lee's dead brother. Then, as season 4 wore on, I set my sights on Tom Zarek. After the truly spectacular mid-season finale, I started to think about it even more, obsessing over the identity of the final Cylon. Then I read a comment made by Ronald D. Moore, and just like that, the switch went off.

Boomer is the final Cylon. Not Athena, the mother of Hera, but Boomer, the Sharon who shot Adama, got Jack Ruby-ed by Cally and tried to end the Cylon aggression against humanity. Crazy as it sounds, it all makes perfect sense.Read More

While some fans were disappointed with Battlestar Galactica's shocking mid-season finale, the episode left most of us in awe and hungry for more.  Two days before "Revelations" aired on the Sci-Fi Channel, the Los Angeles Times gathered together executive producer Ronald D. Moore, television critics, Emmy voters, famous fans, and numerous cast members to screen the episode.  The folks over at Entertainment Weekly were able to attend the screening, and they reported back with all sorts of juicy tidbits from the Q&A session with the cast and crew.  Read on for news on the upcoming series finale, as well as an intriguing fact about the final five Cylons.Read More

Last night's fantastic mid-season finale of Battlestar Galactica was entitled "Revelations" for good reason.  We had been waiting all season, if not longer, for some of the major developments that took place in 2008's final episode.  While the outing of the four Galactica Cylons was a huge development, it was the long-awaited discovery of Earth that will truly be a game changer for both the characters and the series itself.  When Admiral Adama (Edward James Olmos) stepped foot on the planet and picked up the soil in his hands, it wasn't the beautiful happy ending it was meant to be.  Earth was supposed to be the utopia that saved the human race, but instead the crew found the remnants of a bombed out civilization.  It was the perfect example of a theme that ran throughout the episode: be careful what you wish for.Read More

Last week on Battlestar Galactica, I cried into my stylish yet manly hankie when Adama and Roslin were finally reunited aboard the Cylon Basestar.  Before that touching moment, Helo and an Eight successfully rescued D'Anna from the Resurrection Hub just minutes before the Viper pilots blew it to bits.  D'Anna promised to tell Roslin the identities of the final five Cylons, but only if she takes her back to the Galactica.  Can the Cylon be trusted, or is she merely trying to ensure her survival now that she's the last of her kind?

Tonight's episode of Battlestar Galactica is the final installment until 2009.  Sit down, buckle up, and prepare yourself for one of the most mind-blowing cliffhangers of the television season.Read More

Battlestar Galactica's Grace Park is no stranger to Sci-Fi, her resume includes stints on The Immortal, Stargate SG1, Jake 2.0, Andromeda, Outer Limits, and, surprisingly, more. She is probably best known for her role as the Cylons Boomer, Athena, Sharon ad infinitum. BuddyTV was extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to sit down with Grace to discuss Battlestar Galactica's past, present, and future as well as the intricacies of playing a character with the most extreme multiple personality disorder on TV today.

Margaret Weis Productions has reached an agreement with Universal Studios Consumer Products Group to produce roleplaying game products based on the enormously successful, critically-acclaimed television series, Battlestar Galactica.

"When we established our company we made the commitment to produce character- and story-focused role playing games using the best source material we could find," says Margaret Weis, New York Times best-selling author and game publisher. "Battlestar Galactica is the kind of science fiction that we do best, where the drama and characters are more important than the guns and the gadgets. The very survival of the human race is at stake in the series and exploring the story possibilities in the setting can make for some very exciting games."

Battlestar Galactica is the Emmy-nominated television series brought to the small screen by Executive Producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick. In the United States, the program can be seen weekly on the Sci-Fi Channel. This hit show captivates its audience as an aged battleship leads a ragtag civilian fleet away from a terrifying enemy - the Cylons - and toward hope on a mythical world called Earth.

Like the show, the role playing game book is set in space and will focus on the challenges of survival in exceedingly trying times - and the difficult choices that must be made. The core product, the Battlestar Galactica Role Playing Game, is a self-contained game product using the same game system as the best-selling and award-winning Serenity Role Playing Game (also produced by Margaret Weis Productions). The game book will be a full-color hardcover book featuring still images from

the series as well as original artwork. It will provide rules for play, character creation, and information about the ship and crew of Galactica as well as the other main characters from the show. A Quickstart Guide will be released in early 2007 with the core product premiering in the spring. Additional products will closely follow the release of the core product. The entire line will be supported by an interactive website.

My favorite LOST writer, Javier Grillo-Marxuach, has now written a comic book miniseries called Battlestar Galactica - Cylon Apocalypse . Dynamite Entertainment is releasing the first of the four part comic book miniseries in February of 2007. The series is based on the original Battlestar Galactica TV series and begins with the bizzare scene of Cylon Raiders attacking one of their own Basestars. Something even stranger happens next and the Cylon Apocalypse begins! Javi keeps his fans updated through his blog at http://chaodai.livejournal.com/. He also has a website called Radio Free Javi which links to a very funny series of videos called Ask Javi! where he answers questions from his fans. Javier Grillo-Marxuach also writes for the TV show: Medium and is responsible for the new comic book series called The Middleman.

David Eick, the executive producer of 'Battlestar Galactica,' is teaming up with director Jonathan Mostow and writer John McNamara to develop a new sci-fi show currently titled 'Them'. The sci-fi invasion show is slated for the Fox Network.

Accoring to SciFiWire, the project is based on the graphic novel 'Six.' Eick and McNamara are writing the script, which involves extraterrestrial terrorists who take human form. The twist is that human emotions act as a kind of drug for the aliens. Mostow is quoted as saying, "On a surface level, it's a really cool science fiction thriller. But underneath, it's a very provocative show that's really going to explore what it means to be human, to be a person."

No word on how, or if, Eick's alignment with FOX will impact BattleStar Galactica Production.

Katee Sackhoff, who plays StarBuck on the new Battlestar Galactica will be scene on the big screen sequel to White Noise which will be released, theatrically, in January.

Sackhoff told SCIFIwire that she jumped ant the opportunity to play a character as far removed from her day job as ace fighter pilot Starbuck. In the film, Sackhoff plays a nurse named Sherry, whose life is saved by a man (Serenity's Nathan Fillion), who, having cheated death himself after his family is murdered, helps those about to die.

Sackhoff claims that the sequel is "a great story. It's all about death's design and when it's your time to go and what you have to do rectify the situation when you get saved. It's very interesting. I haven't seen it yet, but I've heard great things about it, and I'm just really, really excited to see it."
