TechGOnzo and einaphets are twittering from DragonCon this weekend...here are a few fun bits:
Olmos working with attorney gen. to catch the guy who scammed fans at Jump con says "As much time as it takes to bring this bastard down" (via)
Olmos "this is my first con in the USA in my entire life". "...most fun i've had in public in my entire life" (via)
Direct to DVD sept 8 starts shooting. Its set in "lay your burdens down" time, says Hogan. (via)
Question: what on the show do you wish could happen in real life: Douglas- "Communal Showers" (via)
Grazier says he doesn't know anyone who hasn't cried after reading the final episode script. (via)
Question, entire cast: plans post-bag? Callis is doing a tv show Merlin, which he is playing the lead. (via)
EJO thanks the fans for being so fun at DC (via)
Tigh: "so say we all" and that's it folks, end. (via)
Regarding a new role for James Callis: is TechGOnzo is referring to BBC's MERLIN, which premieres in the UK on BBC1 next month, and midseason on NBC here in the US? There has been no official announcement yet that Callis has joined the cast, which includes Michelle Ryan and Anthony Stewart Head...we'll see if that turns out to be more than a rumor. MERLIN actually has a character named Gaius, played by Richard Wilson.
In other news: Michael Hogan partied with The Colonial Fleet till 2am last night...and Edward James Olmos is wearing his ADAMA '08 tee shirt today. Niiiiiiice. :D

One thing you guys fail to mention ... I was at Dragon Con and heard the BSG panel, and Aaron Douglas mentioned that the second half of the fourth season may not begin until APRIL!!!! Lots of groans about that from the audience. There was actually a good bit of Sci-Fi Channel bashing going on, but this was the thing that caused the most concern.
wjeffbishop: which BSG panel was that, sunday? i went to friday and saturday and didn't hear that...and aaron certainly didn't have much to say on saturday.
today's (monday's) panel was ONLY Tahmoh and Richard Hatch (moderator blamed the hurricane for messing with some of the others' schedules. ??) and Tahmoh had to leave 30 minutes in.
It was the Sunday panel, with Hogan, Hatch, Douglas, and some redshirt guy who apparently will have some role to play in the second half of the fourth season. Aaron was actually quite talkative during this particular panel. I didn't go to the others you mentioned.
Oh, and James Callis was on the Sunday panel, too. That's when he mentioned the Merlin project. And Aaron said he'll be playing a cop in some upcoming TV project, as well.
Olmos said a variation of the exact same thing during FANEXPO in Toronto, except he replaced "USA" with "North America." Did you guys have to pay 60 bones for an autograph too?
wjeffbishop: the red shirt guy is probably the same dude from Friday's panel - Colin Corrigan - played a Marine named Nowart (nonspeaking pretty much) in a few episodes in the past, has some work coming up in 4.5. odd that he was there, no one had any questions for him since no one knew who he was.
Frak it! I was at Dragon Con on Saturday and didn't know about the Colonial Fleet party. I'd have been glad to go and get as drunk as Tigh on shore leave. Not that he needs and excuse.
