[Cancelled] Caprica (Season 1)


Recommended Posts

I just watched it and must say it's gonna be great. I will not spoil it for people.

except - for the boys in the audience there is plenty of topless girls in the nightclub.

good show, love how caprica is still vancouver BC (where it's filmed) a lot of the scenes made it obvious where the movie was being filmed if you know the city. It was kinda slow and confusing at the start but got really good at interesting as it went on.

I enjoyed it quite a lot, but im interested to see how they are gonna weave the plots into the BSG history that we know.

The only thing that gets me, is that 58 years doesn't *feel* like long enough between them inventing (reinventing) the first cylon, the first cylon civil war and the fall. Or is that just me?

I just finished watching the pilot episode of Caprica! The show gave me an insight to the origins of the Cylon. Anyhow, I made a couple of videos from a number of scenes from the pilot episode and mixed it in with a few songs from the BSG sound track.

The first video is my intro to the Caprica show inspired by the BSG Cylon prologue of each BSG episode. The second video is represents the Cylon's first act of evil.

Check out the videos over at my blog:

I'm still planning to create a couple more videos from the pilot episode. Any comments and suggestions are welcome. Thanks! =)

Well well well...

That was fun, and plants a lot more than the vague seeds I was expecting.

A few things I liked:

The building where the Cylons were developed was a pentagon shape - the original Cylon symbol

Explains where the idea of 1 true God comes from in Cylon culture

Certainly showed the animosity between the colonies

"By your command"

That's not mod-like. ;)

What do you mean? I was stating that there's essentially one way for anyone here who has commented on it to have seen it. I never said that I was of that group. This show doesn't interest me in the slightest, so why waste my time illegally getting it?

Yeah I loved that quote :D

Also when she said "Cylons...Interesting" if only she knew what the future holds!

Young William Adama as well that was so awesome to see!

I think this series is going to be different but really awesome.

So now comes the theorizing!!!

I'll spoiler tag is since it hasn't actually aired on TV yet and not everyone has seen the DVD yet... or other forms.

My theory...

I think Cavil (from BSG) is behind it all.

Since we know the original "final five" have been around for a VERY long time (what was it, 2000 years?) the 2nd gen Cylons like Cavil/Six etc... could have been around a while too. Cavil is older looking, so he could have been around during the time frame of Caprica. I don't think they ever said at what age Cavil wiped the final five's memories and planted them on the 12 colonies. Saul Tigh knew Adama at a fairly young age, so its possible Cavil planted them on the planets as early as when Caprica takes place.

So my guess it how it went is Cavil took over, wiped and planted the final five on the 12 colonies. Found out about the R&D some companies were doing in robotics, like Greystone's. He created the terrorist cult, and used the school principal to recruit Zoe Greystone (the daughter) and the whole bomb on the train was orchestrated to kill Zoe so that Daniel Greystone would push even harder to create robotics, since he could basically resurrect his daughter. Then Cavil, using the cult could then turn the Cylons against humanity and to be his personal army.

Notice at one point the school principal says to Zoe's friends that Zoe is important to them. So obviously someone is behind it and it would make perfect sense to be Cavil.

hum, your timeline is all wrong..the final 5 found the cylons after the 1st war, created more skin jobs, which i believe cavil was the first. this is well after caprica

    • Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji The iPhone Fold is one of the most anticipated tech products expected to debut this fall. It will be Apple’s first foldable iPhone, ushering in a new product category for the company. While the first generation has yet to hit the shelves, a new leak suggests Apple has already begun work on its successor. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claims that the second-generation iPhone Fold has already been confirmed, meaning Apple could launch a successor in fall 2027. The foldable iPhone is also reportedly referred to as the “iPhone Ultra,” though it remains unclear whether Apple will ultimately choose that branding, especially as Samsung is rumored to rename the Galaxy Z Fold 8 as the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra this year. The leaker also claims that the second-generation foldable will feature a wider folding display while reusing the same screen found in the first generation. Apple’s first foldable iPhone is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.3-inch outer screen in a passport-style form factor. It has already been reported that Apple plans to change its iPhone release cycle in 2026 to spread launches throughout the year. Under this strategy, the iPhone Fold is expected to debut this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The standard iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2 are expected to arrive later in 2026 or in early 2027. Speaking of the iPhone Air, Digital Chat Station says Apple remains undecided about a third-generation model. The company is reportedly waiting to see how the iPhone Air 2 performs in the market, and if sales disappoint, a successor may never materialize. As we reported this week, the iPhone Air has not been scrapped from Apple’s plans. The second-generation model is reportedly scheduled for spring 2027 and could introduce upgrades such as an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography and improved battery life.
    • ahh yes the good old your opinion differs from mine so you are therefore insane lol destiny 1 had no agenda pushing and was a massive success of a game, if you clearly look online the team for some reason thought they had too many men on the team and went on a woman and dei recruitment drive and we all know how destiny 2 performed from then on in
    • The limited imaginations and business acumen of non-dominant players is simply that: the abject lack of creative business acumen. Businesses often want to operate in a financially-rewarding marketplace (free market economics) and/or exit/cash-out at maximal financial recompense. Money is their incentive; regulations are both their obstacles and their tools; politics is their means of influencing the marketplace. Google, in this story's example, is crying that AWS and Azure are "too dominant" -- cuz Google Cloud is not printing as much money as Alphabet wants (although it is still dramatically more than they actually need). The EU DMA should truly follow-the-money and treat the EU as its own sovereign nation in order to protect European market players: Domestic entities are exempt from market-influence regulations until absolute monopoly is achieved; Foreign (non-EU/non-Euro) entities are all regulated via stricter DMA measures whereby regulated partnership with independent domestic entity becomes the only way for foreign entities to 'tip the scale' for favorable financial remunerations. Basically create a dual-track aligning with China's foreign investment models. In my eyes, this is the only way to properly protect the European marketplace beyond the current dot-com/ai-bubble/social-media crazes.
