      Caprica



      So who has been following it and what do you think of it?

      I actually thought is was going to be poo, but it's turning out to be quit interesting. I believe it has some serious points in it that play on things here...

Being fully aware of the air whipping by you, controlling every movement of every single atom in your body with a single thought. It's real freedom, and there's not a word good enough to describe it, so I'll just call it dreamy for now."

      I've seen the first three episodes. Pretty good except I understand there won't be anywhere as much action as in Battlestar Galactica, so the writers better find a way of keeping it interesting beyond the first season. Also why did Zoe have to die in the first episode, she was freakin' hot ...

      I'm enjoying it quite a bit so far. It has that same mix of the alien and the familiar, the high-tech and the retro, that was a big part of BSG's appeal. The Adamas and the dad/scientist are the best of the cast/characters. I'm not a big fan of the teacher and the friend (Lacie); they're both a bit melodramatic, and when you put them together it's kind of...meh

      I guess the Zoe actress is doing a good job in her Little-miss-princess, everybody-loves-me-almost-as-much-as-I-love-myself role, but that's a pretty unlikeable character.
      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

      My initial reaction to the show was wtf is this, a future with shiploads more of religion and not none?

      But I still watch it so I can't think it is all bad. I like the robot mechanic guy, even though he seems to be a minor character that doesn't show up often.

      I have to admit i never watched BSG, but after watching this series i did read up on it and attempted to learn as much as i possibly could of the show. What i really like about this show is it's a play on the idea of the subconscious, and i love how it has a resemblance to the show .Hack//Sign and the general idea is nice.

      I loved BSG, so I had to give this show a chance.

      Up until last episode, it was going way too slow.. but they are catching up now I believe.

      I like the concept of Holobands, and everything it brings.

      And I want to see more of Tamara, it's cool that she can manipulate with the coding in the virtual world, a bit like Neo in Matrix.

      I totally wasn't expecting what happened in this last episode.

      That was pretty intense. Isn't this the last episode for a while? We won't know who survives until who knows when :x

      Hehe, it felt like a half seasons of pace and action squashed into one episode..

      Unfortunately the next episode will air 17 September 2010!!! That's 5 months and 20 days ?

      Too long wait..
