Season 4 airs 2008!!!!

Khannie

This may have been posted in the other threads, but I haven't been reading them given the number of spoilers posted on here recently. I went looking for the S4 air dates and it turns out that we're gonna be left waiting for another 7 FRAKING MONTHS!

I dunno about you lot, but this pisses me off no end. 7 MONTHS! My memory only lasts about 7 MINUTES!

On the plus side, there will be a 2 hour film released Q4 this year. Still though....7 MONTHS!!!!!

The 2 hour film, the Pegasus mini-series, is really just two normal length episodes afaik. It leads into S4 anyway, so I don't see the problem with the wait really. Happens with every scifi show.

What was the wait between S2 and S3?

I have episodes 19 and 20 of S3 left to watch (christ, 18 was such crap)....gonna drag those puppies out over 6 weeks I'd say.

It was 7 months in the US.
March-October.

We here in Europe got screwed by Sky, having season 2 match closely to the US air dates, relatively, and then with Season 3 they were way behind, driving folk to the torrents to get their BSG fix.
Here's hoping they don't make the same mistake again.

Hopefully they will have the good sense to bring the air date forward for season 4 if they actually start production while still working on the later episodes for the season.

Though I could understand the delays with the mini-series this fall postponing things but I'd rather season 4 early then the re-visit to the Pegasus.

{Though there was some mention in an interview which I dont entirely recall with Moore where he implied the time delay was all down to financing so season 4 couldn't be done any faster}

Frankly, I'd rather wait and get the entire season in one run than have to put up with a couple of months in the middle with nothing like the US does.

Yes,SCi Fi have a strange method of making BSG.
They will shoot all the episodes of seaon 4 before they begin to air episode 1.
I'd prefer the method used in other shows where the episodes are shot only a few weeks in advance of airing.

It could be worse, Dexter and Weeds, both great shows both only have 10 episodes a season thats a 42 week wait which is allot more than 7 months

If they make a sci-fi show and it gets canned people are pissed off but if they make a whole season b4 they air the 1st episode then even if they get cancelled they still have epiosdes left to air

I lasted 3 weeks. This wait is killing my enthusiasm tbh. So long ago...so long to go.......

jjbrien

When is it out in the states does anybody know I cant wait til 2008.

Vokes

Erm.....2008.

January im guessing / hoping.

User45701

ye, BSG, Shameless and the shield 3 great shows all will be airing the final seasons in January

Praetorian

It's a long time to wait but lets hope they make it the best season yet.

robby^5

I'd be happy with the same quality of season 3, despite what people say about the filler episodes (which i thought were enjoyable and developed certain characters/relationships/storylines).

I do look forward to the first few episodes and how they'll explain the ending to season 3, which was like the greatest bsg cliffhanger to date

Khannie

This wait is KILLIN' me.

User45701

dont worry we only really have to wait another 20 or so days then we get our fix,

we get the webisodes that run from the start of october till the weekend razor comes out and then the week after razror we get bsg season 1 in HD DVD to watching during december, it would take a month to watch it with the ammount of x-mass drinking and then your ready for season 4 at the start of Jan

qwertplaywert

Anyone gonna wait till next september with me for the season 4 dvd instead of watching on tv?Ive relised through watching season 3 these last few days the reason I consider BSG better than the rest at the moment is maybe because I watch all the rest on tv , and bsg on dvd[only got into it in middle of season 3].
Now a year-THATS a long wait!

User45701

i can understand this because i choose to do it with sopranos , myself and a friend started on the first season about 3 weeks before the last episode and blitzed thourgh it, did the same with the shield all 6 seasons in a month, didnt know there was going to be a 7th, im thinking of doing the same with lost season 4 nbut i havent decided yet.

Some shoes though, like bsg,weeds,dexter i have to watch the second they come out as in around 2.25-3.45am

I waited for the high def version. I think this is worth doing. If it doesn't air at the same time as the sh*tty interlaced versions I'll definitely do it again.

Glad to hear it's only 20 days to the webisodes though.

emm season 1 HD is only out this december i doubt you will get season 4 on HD DVD for quite a long time and also remember that americana HD is not 1080p/i so cousins cant give you true hd bsg

arch_stanton

I think all of the episodes so far aired on Univeral HD in 720p about 2-3 months after originally being shown on the sci-fi channel. They were available by the usual disreputable means.

The price for the boxset on amazon.com is only $69.99. Even after shipping is added the price in euro should be less than €60.

Sky broadcast season 3 in HD long before the box set was a twinkle in scifi's bank account.

1080i is a sh*t of a lot better than the horrible horrible, badly deinterlaced, 480i (is it even that high?) crap that you download from your american cousins at initial broadcast time. That stuff really is unwatchable on a large screen IMO. I'm not a viewing snob, I just think it looks like sh*t. The 720p, x264 encoded versions that my cousins make available to me look superb by comparison.

I may take some screenshots to make the point later.

User45701

well id rather watch season 4 when it comes out then wait and watch it on sky HD with ads, ill still buy the DVD as well ofcoarse

Pepe LeFrits

Dunno if it has been mentioned before, but SciFi showed some short clips from Razor. Two of them are on youtube:

Both feature Cain and the new Lieutenant character.
