The final episodes of Season Four of Battlestar Galactica may air as late as April 2009, accord­ing to the show’s star Aaron Douglas at a cast panel dis­cus­sion Sunday at Dragon*Con 2008.

Douglas, who plays Chief Tyrol, said that the SCI FI net­work has com­pletely ignored arguably their biggest hit, adding “and the SCI FI Network sucks,” which got a big applause from those in the audience.

“Ten episodes is not a sea­son,” said Douglas, refer­ring to the first half of the sea­son, which aired from April to June 2008. In June 2008, the remain­ing episodes, which will con­clude the sto­ry­line for the series, had not yet been scheduled.

Michael Hogan, Richard Hatch, and James Callis seemed to echo their castmate’s feel­ings. In an ear­lier panel, Edward James Olmos riffed on the split say­ing, “… of course they didn’t pay us for five sea­sons.” Season Four was orig­i­nally slated for 13 episodes, but was extended to 22 (which included a 2-hour movie).

The series finale is said to be a tear-jerker, accord­ing to sci­ence adviser/consultant, Kevin Grazier.

“I don’t know any­one who hasn’t cried after read­ing the final episode script,” Grazier said. (GeekofDoom.com)
