Title: "The Reins of a Waterfall"
Writer: Michael Angeli
Director: Ron D. Moore
Story: "Caprica" opens this week on the heels of Amanda Graystone's (Paula Malcomson) shocking, yet ironically untrue, public revelation of her daughter Zoe's (Alessandra Torresani) participation in the terrorist bombing of the Mag-Lev train. Like last week's post-pilot premiere, "Reins" is all over the character map, giving us brief glimpses into the assortment of developing events that grew out of the incident. The Graystones are in the media doghouse, the police continue to hound them, Zoe's friend Lacy (Magda Apanowicz) is still being courted for information about Zoe by the school headmistress and secret member of The Soldiers of the One, and the Adamas remain players in Caprica's criminal underworld. A new player joins the party, in the form of popular talk show host Baxter Sarno (Patton Oswalt), and he's not a fan of the Graystone revelations.

Title: "Rebirth"
Writer: Mark Verheiden
Story: Ron Moore and David Eick are back on TV with more Cylon tales. Their long-awaited "Battlestar Galactica" prequel series, "Caprica," kicked off last week with the pilot, which any self-respecting "BSG" fan took in months ago. Which made last night's episode a second season premiere of sorts, the first new looks we've had at the Graystones, the Adamas and the rest of the ensemble since it hit DVD in April.
The story picks up a month after the Mag-Lev ("Caprica" for 'elevated subway') bombing claimed the lives of young Zooey Graystone (Alessandra Torresani) and her terrorist friend Ben Stark. A copy of Zooey's personality exists on what amounts to a space-age microchip installed into the prototype Cylon body. When the story picks up, we see that Zooey is still very much conscious of who she is and what she's become, so much of the...

If you own the DVD of the pilot episode of Caprica, then you know the story. If you don't and this week is the first time you ever took a glance at the world before it was demolished in Battlestar Galactica, then hang on to your seatbelts… or go to the raves and nightclubs of your cities. It's slightly the same experience. Slightly…
Part One: The Set Up
Caprica: 58 Years Before The Fall…
Welcome to Hell… Or someone's sick idea of fun.
We have sex rooms, fight club type rings, people being shot to death in cold blood while a crowd watches and cheers. Everything is possible in this place. In the center of it all stands Zoe Graystone (Alessandra Torresani), a teen girl who is either disgusted or just plain bored with the circus in front of her. She spots out someone standing in...

How can Caprica possibly succeed? It is a prequel to a remake to a rip-off. Of course, that remake, the updated Battlestar Galactica, was actually one of the greatest TV shows ever, but that only indicates just how impossible Caprica's task really is. The new BSG was great precisely because it literally destroyed everything Caprica is. The original 2003 miniseries introduced us to the kind of science-fiction space culture we all got bored with somewhere between Star Trek: Voyager and Stargate: Atlantis. The fact that most of the main cast was in the military recalled everything from the Federation to...

Warning! This review reveals the identity of the gay and bisexual characters on Caprica as well as several minor plot points.
If Ronald D. Moore set himself a difficult task back in the early Aughts — reimagining the somewhat beloved if campy 1970s sci fi series Battlestar Galactica as a much darker, much more socially relevant sci fi series — then what he is attempting to do with his new show Caprica is something supremely more difficult.
This time out he's not just writing and producing a prequel (almost always a risky proposition) to his wildly successful and infinitely more loved version of Battlestar Galactica, he's also using his new drama to help SyFy achieve their goal of broadening their demographic appeal by making Caprica what is being called "television's first science fiction family saga" and which Caprica executive producer Remi Aubuchon said "...owes itself more to Dallas in some ways than to Star Trek.

From Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Gilmore Girls to Ronald D. Moore’s remake of Battlestar Galactica, writer Jane Espenson has a knack for ending up on some of television’s most buzzed about shows. Hopefully, her luck of working on successful shows will hold with the launch this Friday of SyFy’s BSG prequel Caprica.
Set fifty eight years before the events of BSG, the plot of Caprica is to tell the story of how humanity inadvertently created the intelligent machines known as Cylons which eventually despised their creators enough to try and annihilate them. The futuristic world created by Moore in BSG was a complicated one fraught with danger, both physical and moral. Caprica promises to be no less complex.
AfterElton.com recently caught up with Espenson, who is an executive producer and writer for the show, to discuss how the writers are approaching the show's gay material,...

Caprica will be premiering on SyFy on January 22 at 9:00 p.m. but the network has already released an official synopsis and a combination of sneak peeks and vignettes about different characters and scenes.
If you happen to live in the United States, the extended version of the pilot is available (for free) on Hulu right now. Check it out here.
On the vibrant world of Caprica, in a culture recognizably close to our own, two dynamic families – the Graystones and the Adamas – live separately on opposite ends of society until they are brought together by tragedy.
Daniel Graystone (Eric Stoltz), a computer engineering genius, owns a large corporation that is spearheading the development of artificial intelligence. His unwavering professional pursuits are driven to extreme measures when personal tragedy strikes him and his wife Amanda (Paula Malcomson): their strong-willed daughter Zoe (Alessandra Torresani) dies in a terrorist bombing fueled by an underground religious dogma.

Syfy is giving its fans an early Christmas present: An extended version of the pilot episode for "Caprica" is available online, more than a month before the series officially premieres.
The cable channel has already released the "Battlestar Galactica" prequel's pilot on DVD, way back in April. Those who didn't pony up the money for it then can now see what they missed, along with some extra footage that probably won't make it into the first hour of the Jan. 22 premiere (the cut online runs about 52 minutes, a good deal longer than the 42-44 minutes for a typical episode of an ad-supported show).
"Caprica" is set 58 years before the events of "Battlestar" ("before the fall," as the show puts it) and will focus primarily on two families, the wealthy and powerful Graystones and the Adamas, an immigrant family from one of the other 12 colonies. Eric Stoltz stars as Daniel Graystone,...
