The second half of the fourth and final season of SCI FI Channel's original series Battlestar Galactica promises fans a number of extra-long, jam-packed episodes as it works toward the climactic finale, executive producer David Eick told fans at Comic-Con International in San Diego on July 26.
In a subsequent interview, Eick told SCI FI Wire that producers have been "able to convince the network to let us air ... long episodes--[to] take single episodes and make them double episodes, ... [and to take] double episodes and make them quadruple episodes."
Eick added: "Our episodes are always ... long, and we're constantly getting into the editing room with 10, 15, sometimes 20 minutes of material that you can't get into an episode." With just a half-season remaining, Eick said, "the story has become so critical in order to realize the arc of the series that we can't just cut stuff out and save it for later or push it 'til next year, the stuff we're used to doing. It's all got to be there."
Eick and the cast members refused to divulge any details about the final episodes, other than to express excitement over the upcoming storylines and to praise the finale, written by executive producer Ronald D. Moore, which they have just finished shooting.
"There are so many great episodes in between, but ... the script of the finale, it's poetry, ... it really is," Michael Trucco (Samuel T. Anders) said.
Jamie Bamber (Lee "Apollo" Adama) said that the final season, "like all good endings, ... sort of ties [into] the beginning. ... It's like a great piece of music where all the strains and all the melodies that you've had so far come and are referred to in the end. And there is a new beginning as well. ... The same for Lee. It's an ending and a beginning, and it's sublime."
As for bringing the series to a close, Eick said, "We were trying to do something different with science fiction, ... with the space opera; we were trying to kind of blow the wheels off the sort of Star Trek aesthetic, and I think on that front we feel very accomplished. ... It's definitely gratifying to feel like we captured some part of the public's imagination and that the show overcame its title and overcame, in some respects, its genre to get the respect it's gotten." Battlestar Galactica returns with new episodes in early 2009. Source Link: http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=0&id=58067
