As its fans have feared, Sci Fi's Battlestar Galactica will end its run after this, its fourth season.
Executive producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eik said they will wrap up the show's storyline with these 22 episodes. The fourth season is in production in Vancouver and will premiere in November. The official announcement, planned for Friday, ends months of speculation from the show's core group of dedicated fans.
"We respect the producers’ decision to end the series and are proud to have been the home of this groundbreaking show," said Sci Fi Executive Vice President of Original Programming, Mark Stern in a statement.
"This show was always meant to have a beginning, a middle and finally, an end," said Eick and Moore in a joint statement. "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."
Battlestar is produce for NBC U-owned Sci Fi by NBC Universal Television Studio.
