    Caprica

    Is it worth my time?
    I loved BSG.

    I watched the first two episodes and the gist of it is this. Virtual worlds where folks explore all of their widlest fantasies, where folks have orgies do drugs, and become addicted to simply existing in the environment. Eric Stoltz is a high level scientist whose daugter dies in an explosion, but here virtual self still exists. Stoltz manages to capture his daughter's virtual self and implant it into a new cylon he has created. He brings in a young Adama who is going through the same thing as Stoltz, the loss of his daugher.

    I made the executive decision to wipe my DVR of it and quit watching. I started watching the third episode and said "why bother any longer". Interesting idea but it didn't hold me.

    Thanks. I'll think I'll leave it then.
    Cheers

    Hmm, I'm a massive BSG fan, but I don't really want to see this...BSG is about the "rag tag fleet", nothing more, nothing less...and it's not like they come from an interesting "Universe" (like Star Wars or Farscape), it's just America in space.

    So no. BSG starts with the "Mini Series" and ends with "Daybreak" as far as I am concerned.
    Oblivion gallops closer, favoring the spur, sparing the rein - I think we will be gone soon

    We call it Craprica here at work....figure that one for yourself
    Innocent victims of merciless crimes, fall prey to some madman's impulsive designs.

    Step after step we try controlling our fate. When we finally start living, it's become too late.
