Only ten weeks until the final episodes of BSG begin!
I know, that's too far away; too long to wait! I suspect the Galactica creative team knows that too, so they've provided us with some juicy appetizers in the interm...
First, of course, are the webisodes which star Gaeta and Hera. Check them out over at Scifi.com. This week's kick off finds a exhausted Felix ordered to take some rest aboard the Zypher, only to have the cylon fleet interfere.
Of particular note, the renegade Cylon basestar is still with the fleet, and the skinjob crew apparently moves freely from ship to ship. It also appears Tigh and Gaeta are working on extensive research on the Basestar, possibly to use against the toasters when they attack. I have to wonder how the Colonial population at large feels about their new allies...
Also worth checking out is www.youwillknowthetruth.com, a website apparently run by the final Cylon. It contains clues to the upcoming season, including brief footage. A new clue comes out later today, so make sure you take a look.
January 16th can't come fast enough, can it? Spin up the FTL!

THE GROUP: Prelude to the return!
Gods, it's been too long.
But the wait is almost over.
Even now, we, your Group panelists are abuzz with plans for the final ten episodes of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, as well as the future of THE GALACTICA GROUP itself. Stay tuned for news as it develops.
In the meantime, I do have some sensational news to report.
First of all, BSG returns January 16th in its regular time slot. In case you've been living under a rock, and didn't know.
Second, the new Season 4 webisodes begin December 12 on Scifi.com. Felix Gaeta will take on a leading role in the web series, which will deal with a marooned crew on board a Raptor. The other great revealation is that Mr. Gaeta finally comes out of the closet, along with his boyfriend Lt. Hoshi, the communications officer of the Battlestar Pegasus. Reportedly, we even get a full-on make out scene between the two. Leave it to David Eick, Ronald D. Moore and the rest of the BATTLESTAR writers to keep the most diverse cast of characters in TV history. It only adds to the interest and honesty of the show.
Third, CAPRICA, the BSG prequel, is officially going to series. As far as we know, all the major cast members of the Telefilm will return as series regulars. While we wait with mixed emtions for the final episodes of BSG, let the promise of CAPRICA give us some home for the same kind of groundbreaking, no-holds-barred entertainment we've grown so accustomed to.
In the meantime, I'm holding my breath for December 12. See you all there!
