[Cancelled] Caprica (Season 1)

[ThePitt]

filler episode, on the third episode?!. Give me a break. In the other hand, too much make up. The girl and the others (very) mature women wont look any younger because more make up wont hide what it really is. The 'girl' on her 23 (I think) wont look like a 15yo girl ever.

And about the episode, its how I said above, was nothing. It wasnt a good episode, either, because of that. If they have an episode like this at the beginning, this series is doomed.

How was that filler? It's supposed to be about the Adama and Graystone families and that's exactly what the are doing.

[peterish]

Could someone help me out: where did we see Dr. Janet Frasier, and that BSG girl...? I don't recall seeing them in Caprica.

Love seeing characters I knew from other shows. Awesome.

And to the earlier comment, yea not filler episode, it's exactly what they are suppose to be doing.

Even though this show has said over and over that it's separate from Battlestar Galactica, the producers are now hinting that we'll eventually dovetail with the history of the Final Five, who started their new "lives" on Caprica. Says producer Jane Espenson, "If you actually do the math, the [human-Cylon] war starts about five years from where our characters are in Caprica." (But didn't the Final Five only arrive at the end of the war, not the beginning?)

In related news, the producers have already contacted Lucy Lawless about reprising her role as D'Anna - which is also very confusing. (Will we meet the human that the Cylon D'Anna was based on? Or are we actually going to see the creation of the eight "skinjobs" from BSG? The timeline seems all wrong, based on what Ellen and Sam told us.) [TV Guide]

I would lile a lot from the Caprica series, including:

1. Creation of the [12-Colonies] Cylons (done, mmmm Zoe).

2. Start of the first Cylon war.

3. Commissioning of Galatica (it was 50 years old when it was being decommisioned, which means 10 years into the series, she's got to be built.)

4. Arrival of the final five.

5. Creation of the first 8 models, with focus on the creation of Cavil, and destruction of Daniel.

6. Planting of Cylon skinjob agents (like Boomer).

7. Cavil's revolt, and the planting of the final five in the fleet.

8. More history of the 13th Colony

Thats my wishlist anyway. Oh and,

9. Zoe. Naked.

9. Zoe. Naked.

EW has said Caprica has a 50/50 chance of being renewed :unsure:

[Antaris Veteran]

here's hoping it does. I'm loving what I have seen so far

[Rappy Veteran]

yeah same

the ratings are saying otherwise 1.1m last episode which is very low infact it was beaten by swamp loggers on discovery :unsure:

[IceDogg]

I like this show, and I didn't watch well that other show but a few times at the end Battle.. yea that one. LOL I have really enjoyed this.. hope it survives.

[KeR]

Given how I was obsessed with BSG, even skipping out on going out while it was on during Friday nights; I have yet to see a single Caprica episode.

Syfy Standing Firmly Behind 'Caprica'

EXCLUSIVE: Network EVP of original programming Mark Stern says 'Battlestar Galactica' spinoff is here for the long haul

By MICHAEL HINMAN Feb-18-2010 Source: Airlock Alpha

Thanks to the Internet and a thirst for information, television fans in 2010 are far more savvy than they have ever been before.

Blogs, message boards, even Twitter are filled with discussions dissecting ratings, audience attitude and instant reactions to just about anything that pops up on the boob tube. But while smarter viewers typically result in smarter programs, it can sometimes backfire into rampant speculation that could help bury a show.

That's exactly what Syfy doesn't want to happen to its newest series "Caprica." And no matter what Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello wants to predict with his cable scorecard, network executives say the "Battlestar Galactica" spinoff is here to stay.

"We're definitely with 'Caprica' for the long haul," Syfy's EVP of original programming Mark Stern told Airlock Alpha Thursday. "There's no question about it. We knew exactly what it was not going to be, that is an easily adopted show. It's not 'Battlestar Galactica,' it's its own animal. And we definitely recognize that it's going to find its audience and it's going to grow its audience."

Will "Caprica" ever be the top-rated series on Syfy? Most likely not. But then again, neither was "Battlestar," and that show has become iconically linked with the network.

Live viewership numbers are important, but for a tech-savvy audience like science-fiction fans, so are timeshifted audiences. Syfy just received the first batch of numbers this week for "Caprica" tracking viewers who recorded the second episode of the series and watched it within a week, known as Live+7. Those numbers were better than the network anticipated, Stern said, and actually propelled "Caprica" into the top 10 for cable that night.

"We're certainly not sharpening the axe by any stretch of the imagination," Stern said. "We all really believe in the show, and it has a lot of potential."

The rest of the article has a few points which might be kind of spoilerish.

Cylon dance moves

Cylon dance moves

that was good :shifty:

[ThePitt]

A lil shocking at the beginning in this lastest ep. Like always happend with galactica now with caprica. What was that?. A lesbian cougar, a lesbian japanese milf, a teenager and a black guy. Do I forget sowething?. Im sure they dont. Lol.

In the other hand this show has some details that I really like. When the guy was changing the radio station and sounds the original song of galactica, in the tv show, where you see "all" the backstage (where the anchorman should stay, the guy making the ppl applause, etc). Actually the tv show was the most important part of this episode, where the guy jokes over and over again with the parents and he doesnt left nothing in the air and using the parents words against them.

Somehow Daniel Graystone makes me remember Dr. from Bladerunner (probably they want that, but then were bio-bots, heh). More when he was on the bed ;)

Its a good show. By far better episode than the last week, where was just a filler episode. I hope this show stay in this line.

[Rob2687]

Wow Tamara is like Neo. :p

[Rappy Veteran]

Wow Tamara is like Neo. :p

[TonyLock]

Weren't the Cylons meant to be reptilian, originally?

[ThePitt]

lol @ MicroCrap haha (microcapr, I know). :p

And they better explain how they have the constellations FROM earth, because they are far far away from here...

[OfF3nSiV3]

lol @ MicroCrap haha (microcapr, I know). :p

And they better explain how they have the constellations FROM earth, because they are far far away from here...

[Evolution]

lol @ MicroCrap haha (microcapr, I know). :p

And they better explain how they have the constellations FROM earth, because they are far far away from here...

Maybe they just used the same names when they came to earth and the star positions for the constellations are different.

[thefonz]

This is hands-down my favourite show of 2010, loving the story unravelling each week - is it wrong to find all the women in it hot though? Aren't they like, 16?

Also just noticed that the guy who plays Bill Adama's dad was in Burn Notice as a shop-keeper...
