  • With the possibility of the writers' strike ending soon, E! Online has suggested, based on comments by writer Jane Espenson, that production will resume on Season 4 of the series quite quickly, but the remaining episodes may not air until the autumn of 2008 or the start of 2009.
  • The SciFi Channel has ordered two Battlestar specials to precede the airing of "He That Believeth In Me". These specials, Battlestar Galactica: Revisited and Battlestar Galactica: The Phenomenon, are each half an hour in length and will air back-to-back on March 28, 2008, starting at 10/9 P.M. central.
