If you read the interview with Glen Larson in early 1980 form Starlog magazine I believe. You will find out the Larsen put an end to BSG, not the network. The ratings were nowhere low enough to warrant ending the series. Even at the time it was the most exspensive program being made.
Why did Larson kill it? Simple. His dream was misunderstood by the masses. From the way they talked about the spacecraft even NASA said were the only ones of that sci-fi era that would really fly. Cant remember the school, but there are papers written on the BSG shuttle design.
When 1980 came out. All was lost to Hollywood.
A professor friend of mine told me they should never have gotten to earth. Tis not the place you end up thats important, its how you get there that is.
