NBC to suck in BattleStar Galactica

Sunday night finally got to watch the season premier of the 3rd season to Battlestar Galactica. Good stuff, and a show which potentially could get corporatized and sanitized by NBC, if this rumor is true.

BattleStar Galactica News and Spoilers Word has begun to circulate that NBC's acquisition of 'Battlestar Galactica' is in the “waiting for the ink to dry” phase at this moment, and an official announcement could be days away. ... The question is: will NBC be tolerant of the quasi-political themes that BSG seems to take from the most controversial page of world events? In recent episodes, BSG has examined the flip side of insurgency, terrorists as freedom-fighters, and any number of edgy themes. In the small arena of cable, it is easy to get away with forays into these troubled waters; cable shows are expected to push the envelope to maintain any kind of viewership.

Not sure if the show would be allowed to be as dark and edgy if it is sucked up by General Electric, the Cosby Show network.
