Caprica

Here is an article about the Battlestar Galactica Prequel called Caprica.

A few things really stick out for me.

Moore initially pitched "Caprica" as "a sci-fi version of 'Dallas,'" and while the show has moved well beyond that initial template -- among other things, it adds an organized crime component -- there's enough soap opera sheen left, coupled with the planet-bound setting, that I wonder how many "Galactica" fans will stick with it.

And once again Ronald Moore wants to take the world around us and use this medium to bring it to life. That my friends is not SciFi. I wish he would hurry and fail already because I'm tired of his work.

I DL'ed it a week ago. Still haven't watched it. The idea never did appeal to me, and I think it's likely I never will watch it.
