: I'm happy about it. It is a choice that was made by us. The rug was not pulled out from underneath us. We're going out on a high, with our heads held high. We made the choice and we're going to be able to decide our end and our fate, instead of [having to] wrap it up as fast as we possibly can because we've been canceled. And it was a smart thing to go out on a high. And you know, this is my fourth series. I think I've done more television than anyone else on the show, except maybe Eddie [James Olmos], because of ''[[w:Miami Vice|Miami Vice]]''. He's right there with me! But I've done shitloads of television, and every single show the rug is pulled from out underneath you, and you're going, "What do I do now?" And this is such a great opportunity to wrap it up, say everything you want to say in your character, and put it to bed. | : I'm happy about it. It is a choice that was made by us.

: [[Bradley Thompson|Brad]] and I wrote the [[He That Believeth in Me|opening episode]] of year four and we were up in [[w:Vancouver|Vancouver]] for its pre-production and some of the first few days of filming. The revelation at the end of [[Season 3 (2006-07)|last season]] of our [[Final Five#Four Revealed, and their nature|four Cylons]] who didn't know they were Cylons has once again upset all the chess pieces. So the big challenges starting out this season are how do you play those characters going forward and track their emotional development, or unraveling as the case may be, in a way that's organic as well as genuine and not contrived. Also, as most people know, Starbuck reappeared in the final seconds of last year's finale, so there's also the question of how to deal with that character going forward. There are going to be lots of twists and turns this year. You're going to see our characters wrestling with tormenting problems and experiencing, perhaps, some rather jaw-dropping changes and evolutions. All the dynamics that you may have become used to on ''Galactica'' ship itself will be in flux and we think, and hope, that's going to be tremendously fun to watch.<ref name>"Writes of Passage" <u>Cult Times</u> #144.
