I haven’t really watched a much of Battlestar Galactica, but here is some interesting news from Harry’s site http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=23139

((ed Series
'CAPRICA'
From executive producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick ('Battlestar Galactica'), writer Remi Aubuchon ('24') and NBC Universal Television Studio, this new series is set over a half a century before the events that play out in 'Battlestar Galactica.' The people of the Twelve Colonies are at peace and living in a society not unlike our own, but where high-technology has changed the lives of virtually everyone for the better. But a startling breakthrough in robotics is about to occur, one that will bring to life the age-old dream of marrying artificial intelligence with a mechanical body to create the first living robot - a Cylon. Following the lives of two families, the Graystones and the Adamas (the family of William Adama, who will one day become the commander of the 'Battlestar Galactica') 'Caprica' weaves corporate intrigue, techno-action and sexual politics into television's first science fiction family saga. ))
I always knew there was going to be a spin off show. Could be interesting if handled right. I guess everyone wants a prequel
I dunno. I worry about overkill. Can't they try this in a few years?
ReplyDeleteThat's true too, but I'm sure Sc-fi pretty much told Moore that they were going to make the show with him or without him.
ReplyDeleteAs long as there isnt a third show, it should be okay.
i am not looking forward to it. i am a die hard fan of the new galactica, but with how complcated the show is already, i would worry about producer and writer burnout with TWO shows. That is what hurt SG-1, and of course caused the pathetic death of Star Trek.

I can see your point of view. Here's hoping a completely different crew takes care of this show. Let Moore deal with the other show. All they have to do is not step on any Continuity toes
