Tuned In has posted an interview with Battlestar Galactica Executive Producer Ron Moore. The interview was conducted AFTER the season 3 finale aired, and it does answer a few questions raised in the episode. The interview has MAJOR SPOILERS, so don’t read it if you haven’t seen the season 3 finale.

In an interview with iF magazine, Matt Groening revealed that the title of the first direct to DVD Futurama movie will be “Bender’s Big Score”. It will be released in December of 2007, and the movies (four total) will be “reconfigured” into episodes and shown on Comedy Central starting in 2008.
MATT GROENING: We’re doing four DVD movies around ninety minutes and then we’re going to reconfigure those and they’ll be episodes on Comedy Central. The impolite way of saying it is we’re chopping them up and the polite way is to say we’re reconfiguring and we’re going to add narration and more stuff. We’re going to be doing some fun extras on the DVD show, there’s going to be “Everybody Loves Hyptno-Toad” – a whole show of it. The DVD’s are going to be self-contained packages, but the episodes will also work, we hope. That’s the goal.
