Sci Fi Channel’s “Battlestar Galactica” will end after this season, the show’s fourth, concludes.
Season four is currently in production and the producers will use the 22-episodes to bring their tale to a close.
“This show was always meant to have a beginning, a middle and finally, an end,” said executive producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick. “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.”
Sci Fi executive VP of original programming Mark Stern said he respected to producer decision. “We have always known that Ron and David had a plan for ‘Galactica’ and trust that fans can look forward to a truly amazing final season.”
An extended two-hour episode of the show called “Razor” will premiere in November, setting the stage for the rest of the season to commence in 2008, the network said.
