"I have a source the episode,"lay down your burdens", it says there that Adama will still be an Admiral by the end of thr season as well as everyone else." --Destinymaker 22 November 2005 (CST)

Anyone know yet when the third season will start? (How long will we have to wait after the season finale before we get our BSG fix again?) --Gallanosa 20:52, 2 March 2006 (CST)
- It's usually in July (I think last year it was on July 20, so I'd guess the 21st for this year.) --Redwall 21:42, 2 March 2006 (CST)
October Start
The frak (excuse me for the word) they delay the show for October?! Anyone knows some information? I'm really upset about it. REALLY. Especially, after I saw Lay Down Your Burdens, part II... --Nyiz 12:48, 12 March 2006 (CST)
- The answer is simple (and indeed, obvious): "Black Market". Black Market is the worst. episode. ever of Battlestar Galactica, and the saving grace is that Ron himself said "I think this episode is bad and I'm ashamed that we made it"....which, might I add, is more than those jackasses at Voyager and Enterprise ever did for us! They insisted that the crap they were shoveling at us was great television.---But I digress. The point is, season one was 13 episodes long (it's a standard-length "trial season") but for season 2 they got picked up for 20 episodes (full season length for a Scifi Channel show, like the Stargates). Ron Moore basically admitted in his blog that they got really pressed for time because of the extra episodes, had to do Black Market in a hurry, and ended up with a peace of crap. The editing is bad, the dialog is wooden, etc. etc. ("Sacrifice" wasn't too great either, but I think that's just a result of being a show that had to serve the purpose of killing Billy off, and it was well executed nonetheless).------------>So basically, the running theory is that they're taking longer to make season 3....so they can do a better job, and never have a bad episode like "Black Market" again, and instead have the movie-quality episodes that proliferated in Season 1 and Season 2.0.--The Merovingian 13:10, 12 March 2006 (CST)
