To help combat some of your “Battlestar Galactica” withdrawal as we count days until the “Razor” later this year, we’ve found some SPOILER information on the upcoming fourth season of the hit show.

Please note: This could be pretty big SPOILER news, so if you don’t want to know, please consider yourself warned….

Turns out the Centurion models may not be just “dumb toasters.” Next season will reveal that the human model Cylons delibrarately inhibited the development on the Centurions, making them into the mindless machines that we’ve seen for the past three seasons. Something happens to remove the device that inhibits them and the Centurions begin to think for themselves.

This means bad news for the human model Cylons when the Centurion models get wind of the rumor that four of the final five models are living in the Colonial fleet. The Centurions will refuse to fire on the Colonial fleet or attack for fear of damaging or destroying the four models revealed in last year’s pivotal season finale. This leads to a battle within a basestar that was filmed last week. During the SCI FI Channel’s Digital Press Tour, the after effects of this were clear on the Basestar sets, according to reporters who attended.

“We’re going to lose some Cylons in this battle,” a source said. “And I don’t mean the toasters. We’re actually going to lose some of our humanoid Cylons … as in lose permanently.

The humanoid models are split on if they should continue attacking with the Final Five in the fleet, and when a vote doesn’t go the way one Cylon wants it to, the order is given to completely annihilate three models. Attacking all of them at once, and eliminating their ability to resurrect.

There are unconfirmed reports that this episode also will feature the return of Lucy Lawless to the program, as there is some chatter that the actress has signed up for a similar contract she did in her limited run in Season 3. Also, another source reports that a new “named” Cylon will be introduced early in the fourth season, presenting yet another character for Tricia Helfer to play.

When reporters visited the set last month, the multi-purpose set was designed as a dinner area with pristine white chairs, and some extravagant crystal table settings. The room — which has doubled as Baltar’s holding cell as well as where the hybrid pilots are kept — was riddled with bullet holes that pierced through pillars, and a wall behind where the reporters were walking through. Debris was strewn everywhere, and “Battlestar Galactica” set crew made sure nothing on the set was disturbed, as it was still a hot set.

Of course, none of this has been confirmed by the SCI FI Channel or BSG showrunners, so, until verified, treat this as you would any other reliable back-lot rumor. In other words, not true, or true and subject to last minute changes.
