Caprica

Set 58 years before Battlestar Galactica, Caprica follows two rival families - the Graystones and the Adamas - as they grow, compete, and thrive in the vibrant world of the peaceful 12 Colonies, living in a society close to our own. Entangled in the burgeoning technology of artificial intelligence and robotics that will eventually lead to the creation of the Cylons, the two houses go toe-to-toe, blending action with corporate conspiracy and sexual politics.

From TV.com:

Can't wait to see the end of Caprica, recently canceled by Syfy? Well get ready to sit still for FIVE HOURS. Syfy is sweeping the remaining episodes of the series under the rug by airing the final five episodes back-to-back x5 on January 4 from 6pm to 11pm

Very sad this didn't last longer. There is so much they could have done.

I was a huge fan of the original BSG from the moment I say it back in the early 80s. I flat out rejected the remake at first only to discover later when I did watch it that it´s one of the best shows I´d seen.

That´s why I went into Caprica with an open mind and without prejudice. It´s a good show, I do not see this as a soap, but here´s the thing. It would have work without beeing part of the BSG mythology. Maybe it would have worked better, maybe it would have last longer. Because it´s not enough BSG for the fans and to much of it for the casual viewer.

Ron Moore says in an interview on the DVD set that they basically put two ideas for a show together - one about Artifical Intelligence and one about the origin of the Cylons. And that´s how it felt. As I said, it´s a good series, I liked it, but the plot every now and then feels pressured to fit the BSG mythology.

An underrated follow-up (or rather prequel). Unfortunately changing settings to a more political thriller, not everyone was able to accept. Visually, 10 years ago, the show was defending itself, now it's also bearable.

I finished watching it and did enjoy this as a decent sci-fi show, but not nearly as much as Battlestar Galactica. I guess it was a mistake to label it as the next Battlestar Galactica, because it's an entirely different kind of show and people will always compare the two and Caprica will always lose.
There were some nice concepts: V-World, Mono-theism and the mobster Adama's were all great. There were just two problems: the story moved too slow and they tried too hard linking it to Battlestar Galactica.

hmm thx for the news, didn't know - just looked it up and find it a bit frustrating, could've really sticked around a bit longer. so many story blocks unfinished. hopefully SyFy airs the last 5 eps... otoh I'm asking myself whether they're worth the time or not
