Sci Fi gives series its vote of confidence

Next season, fans can expect more Cylon action.

The Sci Fi Channel has increased its initial 13-episode order of the fourth season of "Battlestar Galactica" to 22 episodes.

The Peabody Award-winning series will also include a special two-hour extended event that will air during the late fall or early winter 2007 and will be released on DVD later.

The redefined space opera is currently approaching its third season finale Sunday, March 25 in which Baltar is on trial and the identity of some of the humanoid Cylons may be revealed.

The fourth season will begin production in May, shooting for an early 2008 premiere.
