Battlestar Returning in October '06

Battlestar Galactica, the Sci-Fi Channel's hit series is looking to return in October instead of it's usual July return to give Ronald.D. Moore, and his prudcution team a little more time in pre-production, and to build a little more anticipation for the season premire.

Recently, Mr. Moore made a suprise appearance at the Grand Slam Convention and took questions on the show. The 2nd part of the season finale had recently aired, and the biggest question was, "Have You Lost Your Mind?!?!?!"

Ron stated that recent designs of the reative directions of the show were designed as "an interesting way to change up the relationships, to sort of subvert your ideas on what the show is about, to take a lot of risks with the characters, and, y'know, piss off the audience, which is always a fun thing to do."

to watch the final minutes of the season finale, and the season 3 teaser, head over to the Battlestar Galactica website by clicking here and look for the icon on the top right of the page.

P.S. We still can't believe they did that either!!!!!
