TS: harassing your friend to burn you s3 on DVDs OR getting them all via torrents casually so you can watch one a week and then the wait for s4 next year won't seem quite as bad...maybe...

blueski, Monday, 30 April 2007 21:53 (sixteen years ago) link

that is my dilemma

blueski, Monday, 30 April 2007 21:53 (sixteen years ago) link

Everytime they show the inside of one of the Cyclon basestars, I think they need to play some classic Detroit techno. Their ships are far more cool looking inside than the bucket of bolts that the Colonials have.

I had the same thought! It would have to be more Robert Hood than Carl Craig though.

This was a total dilemma for me too. But I opted for the former. It was fun while it lasted, but now I'm empty and all alone, for gods damn it.

Fourth season = the last, it seems.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 11 May 2007 19:55 (sixteen years ago) link

NO WAI!

Alan, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:05 (sixteen years ago) link

I was wondering if they were going to go for four or five. Katee seems pretty set on doing the Bionic Woman, did she actually get the role?

kingfish, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:07 (sixteen years ago) link

I think I'm in favor of this. I hope they make it really slamming knowing it's the end.

Jordan, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:07 (sixteen years ago) link

what jordan said

sean gramophone, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:10 (sixteen years ago) link

definitely better to have one more season than to drag it out.

latebloomer, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:11 (sixteen years ago) link

an ex eastenders (UK soap) actress is playing the lead in the BIonic Woman

i was looking for 2 more seasons, but i read somewhere that Ron Moore had got the go ahead to do fewer self-contained eps and concentrate on the continuing story. so i guess that makes sense to do just 1 more series

Alan, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:15 (sixteen years ago) link

i'm actually more interested upon hearing this, but the last half of S3 blew so, so badly that it better be awesome upfront or i'm done with it.

BATTAGS, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:17 (sixteen years ago) link

I can't get too mad about it. Don't play out your premise farther than it can go. (Yeah, I'm the guy that wanted all of season 3 on Nu-Caprica under the toaster's thumb. So?)

Oilyrags, Friday, 11 May 2007 20:28 (sixteen years ago) link

oh man

rrrobyn, Saturday, 12 May 2007 07:21 (sixteen years ago) link

i'm glad it was you, ned, who breaks this news to me. i am angered! but will not blame the messenger. maybe i will swear at you a bit. it is not your fault. oh, tv world, wtf.

okay okay, i see how it makes sense for just one more season. and how last season wasn't fabulous relative to other seasons but whatever! it was still good tv.

:( battlestar

not so quick

Contrary to comments by Edward James Olmos (Adm. Adama) at the Saturn Awards on May10, no end has been announced for the award-winning show. Battlestar Galactica is preparing to film its fourth season, one that will include 22 episodes, rather than the previously announced 13.

"For those of you who have been paying attention over the years, this is not the first time Eddie has made an announcement about the possibility of the show's end," chuckled Eick. "I promise you that when [executiuve producer] Ron [Moore] and I make a decision about Galactica's future, we'll let you know."

Alan, Saturday, 12 May 2007 18:42 (sixteen years ago) link

sweet.

ned, eff off with yr rumours. if terrastock7 is all a lie i may not be able to forgive you btw.

rrrobyn, Saturday, 12 May 2007 18:55 (sixteen years ago) link

If those mothercuddlers "Cousin Oliver" us, Rrobyn, I'm blaming you.

Oilyrags, Saturday, 12 May 2007 19:20 (sixteen years ago) link

Elvis Telecom is the source for T7! I am inclined to highly trust that. ;-)

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 12 May 2007 23:39 (sixteen years ago) link

two weeks pass...

Well then:

Sci Fi Channel sent us the press release confirming the show is ending....

"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," Eick and Moore said in the statement. "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."

Ned Raggett, Friday, 1 June 2007 00:34 (sixteen years ago) link

confirmation. muy triste.

Drooone, Friday, 1 June 2007 00:40 (sixteen years ago) link

So when are they going to Hollywood and riding motorcycles??

Spencer Chow, Friday, 1 June 2007 00:44 (sixteen years ago) link

But that was a ripoff of Chips, so the equivalent would have to feature Apollo doing his David Caruso.

this is good news

i am a bit sad abt this news but not super sad - i would've liked 2 more seasons
xpost yeah yeah

pika-chuuuu :-(

Alan, Friday, 1 June 2007 18:41 (sixteen years ago) link

Maybe they realized that they can't sustain the dramatic tensions over more than one season, considering the last season finale.

Mordechai Shinefield, Friday, 1 June 2007 19:52 (sixteen years ago) link

its good to have limits

blueski, Friday, 1 June 2007 22:50 (sixteen years ago) link

I like that they are doing this with both BSG and Lost. Nobody wants to watch shows as they descend into X-Files/Alias nonsense.

schwantz, Friday, 1 June 2007 22:55 (sixteen years ago) link

yeah open-ended shows are always tarnished by their latter-day suckage.

(Sopranos also wise to do this)

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 1 June 2007 23:05 (sixteen years ago) link

more shows should do this. it was so sad see the x-files become a lame parody of itself.

latebloomer, Friday, 1 June 2007 23:08 (sixteen years ago) link

Especially ones with BIG SECRETS (Lost, Alias, X-Files) or Gilligan's Island syndrome (BSG, Lost).

schwantz, Friday, 1 June 2007 23:10 (sixteen years ago) link

Counter-example, however - Star Trek Voyager - weak-ass, tacked-on, convoluted ending due to waning ratings.

schwantz, Friday, 1 June 2007 23:11 (sixteen years ago) link

that one sucked from the beginning

latebloomer, Friday, 1 June 2007 23:13 (sixteen years ago) link

Indeed it did. However, I think you may mean Star Trek: Enterprise, which was even worse (but actually was cut short at four years instead of going the seven allotted to TNG, DS9 and even the foetid Voyager.)

Oilyrags, Friday, 1 June 2007 23:16 (sixteen years ago) link

Enterprise was downright blasphemous in its suckitude

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 1 June 2007 23:26 (sixteen years ago) link

at least it was attempting something different. voyager was just bland.
