i wonder if this counts as “official”
http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=2&id=62474
but the story line and setting sounds interesting, it might be a good break from the “who is the final cylon” charade that we’ve been getting and will continue to get. looking forward to them
Excellent news! The storyline does sound pretty interesting, and it’s great that Gaeta seems to be getting his own storyline. I do find it amusing how TPTB find creative ways to not spend very much money on the webisodes–the first set took place almost entirely in tents, and this set is going to be mostly confined to a Raptor. I wonder if we’ll finally get to see Gaeta’s reaction to finding out that the guy who shot him in the leg and two of the guys who tried to have him airlocked are Cylons?
And Dec. 12 isn’t even that far away!
wow somehow i missed the dec. 12th part! eek silly me. ummm TPTB…? im assuming you mean the writers but i dont know the acronym. i also just found another trailer, i posted it in the “scifi extended trailer (possible spoiler warning)”. good stuff there!
Webisodes tend to be like a short story, so they wouldn’t have many scenes to begin with.
As for Gaeta finding out about the FF, the whole fleet knows my the time they set foot on Earth, they just haven’t had time to react, making nice with the other Cylons, getting to Earth, and all. Now that that’s done, with the worst possible outcome, the accusations and recriminations are going to fly.
Yup, I essentially meant writers. TPTB= “The Powers That Be”
Well according to Skiffy:
http://www.scifi.com/battlestar/webisodes/
It appears they start this Friday - wonder how they are going to get 10 episodes into the eight weeks before the new episodes. Unless they are going to double up and then leave a few weeks.
Who knows, maybe they will tell us on Friday.
I know we had mention of it above, but figures it bears repeating.
i heard that they will be releasing two episodes at a time… but theres only 5 weeks until the 4.5 premiere, so it works perfectly:-)
I guess it would help if I counted correctly 
I had the premiere in like mid Feb for some unbeknownst reason (you would think that the hiatus was long enough with out me making it longer).
So 2 webisisodes a week makes sense.
official webisodes page:

She talks a little about the plot–but no real spoilers–at her blog.
Also, there’s a poster for the new season posted on a couple entries above the one on the webisodes, and all I can say is–did BSG’s marketing department hire TighGetsPunchedALot?
Wait, BSG more than once a week?! I think my head’s going to explode again…

…where lee adama is looking…
They’re making it plenty easy for him to create his next avatar. I mean really.
I am excited for at least something to keep me sane during this long process of waiting. Good job sci-fi, you finally did some good!
Y’know. They have their moments. I was soooo pissed when they cancelled ‘Farscape’. I stated, “I would never watch Scifi again.” Then I heard about BSG and wondered, “What is this?” Well. needless to say, I had to revise my statement.
I wonder if we’ll be able to download these on our XBoxes?? Sci Fi seems to like to send stuff to XBox Live, I still have the 8 minute BSG recap on my XBox hard drive, as well as a couple older webisodes.
Here there be spoilers, matee.
[spoiler] So we have: Gaeta, Eight, Eight, a pilot and ECO I don’t recognize, and a knuckledragger I don’t recognize. Hmm, I wonder who’s going to get offed first? Final exams must be screwing with my brain, because the first thing I thought of when I read the plot summary is that episode of Futurama where Leila turns the lights off and murders each character who figures out that she killed Prof. Farnsworth.
Also, here I was thinking Gaeta never got any, and it turns out he’s not only hooked up with Hoshi but with an Eight, too? I wonder if she wanted a magic half-Cylon baby, too…[/spoiler]
