Ron Moore, the Battlestar Galactica showrunner, is interviewed in Salon about the show's political themes, the process of telling serialized stories, and the future of the series.

Our main title every week says "A Search for Earth," and at some point you gotta find earth, or it becomes "Gilligan's Island." The audience loses faith that you're ever going to get anywhere and the cylons are never going to destroy the Galactica and what's the point. We've always felt that there's an end to this show, and we've moved into the third act of a three-act structure.
