Battlestar Galactica; TV Update #3

When a TV series is in it's end game, and it's still holding onto consistent viewing figures, it can afford to take some risks with storytelling. Someone has told this to BSG creator Ron Moore, 'cause there be some risk taking going on.

The risks in question are the familiarity of the premise and the recurring cast. The premise is going out the window and the cast are going out the airlock. Where is the story going? Who will survive? I don't know...but this is, by far, the best thing on the box at the moment.
