No more fraking Battlestar Galactica until 2009!

Bad news for fans of Battlestar Galactica: the rest of Season 4 will not be shown until early 2009. At a special screening in Los Angeles Executive Producer Ron Moore said the remaining Season 4 episodes will be shown in the first quarter of next year.

Apparently the delay is due to post production work on the series, as well as production and scheduling competition from new shows and sports programs at the end of this year.

"Realistically,” Moore said, “there's no way to get back on the air faster."

"We don't have a locked in schedule yet," said NBC Universal executive Bonnie Hammer. "We just know that it's always better to leave the fans just titillated a little bit, but it will definitely be back."

This is annoying news. The midseason finale and the episodes leading up to it have been excellent. What has happened on Earth? Who is the final cylon? And most importantly, how will they wrap up the series?

I guess we’ll have to wait and see. The final episodes of Season 4 are being filmed now.
