Kevin Smith Not Directing BSG After All

Inde and scifi “it boy” Kevin Smith set off a media frenzy two weeks ago when he revealed he would be directing an episode of Battlestar Galactica during the show’s final season. But faster than you can say “yes!” (or, depending on your perspective, “noooooooo!”) the news was revealed to be false. Smith will not be scoping BSG due to “scheduling conflicts.”
What sounded like a euphemism was actually revealed to be true according to SyFy Portal. That site has links to Smith’s explanatory blog post and to BSG producer David Eick’s expletive-laden apology e-mail, describing his embarrassment about the scheduling confusion.
