  • This show was too sophisticated for provincial sky and sci-fi viewers, and probably rocked the right-wing vote and sponsors with contemporary reference plus rich discussions of important near-future social, psychological, traditional and ethical dilemmas and conflicts . No wonder it was cancelled in favour of 'safe' tv programmes that favour formulaic 'good hat v bad hat' themes. Generally, people are never receptive or ready for such cerebral and emotional as the presented by Caprica.

  • this show sucks so bad

  • @WatchmenDrManhattan your gay

  • @mjghost16 it dose suck it just trying to profit on the fame of BSG

    & you are a little fagot trying to disagree white some one

  • @WatchmenDrManhattan i dont understand if you hate the show FINE. But why wacthing this trailer? why watching it if you hate it? It dussnt make any sence?

  • So, where can I watch Season 2 Caprica ?

  • @PreBigBanger am afraide the show get cancelt.

  • Need a few more battlestars. Hang on why don't they go back and do a series on the first cylon war

  • too much emo thank god its cancelled

  • SAVE OUR STARGATE UNIVERSE!!!1

  • @DJSKYWALKERONE what the frak has that the do with caprica?

  • As a sci-fi fan it pains me to say this..."sy fy" (such a stupid way to spell it) for having cancelled SGU, the SGA movie andCaprica I will never ever watch anything on your network again. Frak off!!!

  • @JuanOfaKind88 Yes you will, and you know it lol !

  • @PreBigBanger No I kept my word, haven't seen a damn thing on that channel, thankfully "Supernatural" come out on the CW...and there's always "NetFlix"

  • caprica is fracking brilliant

  • This show was real science fiction.

  • Caprica is not cancelled I have just seen a tv ad saying season 2 Monday 15 11pm in the uk

  • @SpiralGalaxy1

    Yea, started off well but faded mid season, tho I thought it picked up again in the last 5 or so episodes.

    Shame that it got cancelled as it explored some deep (and relevant) subjects that aren't common in today's entertainment.

    At least we got a glimpse of how the Cylons were integrated into society.

  • I have seen only few episodes of caprica but it seems to me like a show in which battlestar galactica meets O.C. That teenage crap doesn,t intrest me a bit. Besides battlestar galactica series started to go wrong after second season

  • I actually think Caprica don't need second season. They already told what they needed

  • I absolutely hate that they cancelled Caprica. Everyone seems to say "religious stuff ruined it" or "there's no good guys only villians". In case you didn't realise or forgot, BSG was based on religion aswell, it's part of the storyline. I for one liked what they did with the show, the whole V world, and showing the "ghost" in the machines if you will for the cylons.

    Syfy are just money grabbers like the rest. Let's get wrestling, shit wrestling at that, for a sci-fi channel, thats what to do.

  • @Lolp821 save caprica gopetition[dot]com/petitions/c­aprica-for-season-2/sign.html

  • at first I thought 0:24 was a battlestar in construction

  • I watched the final five episodes of Caprica tonight and I liked the way the show ended. It sucks that Sci-Fi moved the show from Friday to Tuesday and then turned around and cancelled it. There is talk of another show called BSG: Blood and Chrome that is in development, but after seeing how Sci-Fi seems to piss all over Ron Moore and David Eick, why would they ever want to work with them again?

  • Loved this show - the concept of immortality via virtual world is fascinating. While production values are high, the overall tone is too somber. Is ther a single scene here Amanda graystone is not crying or involved in some drug/alcohol induced stupor? Too depressing too watch - had the same problem with starbucks from bsg, so self- destructive.

  • Haha go to the facebook page, "Caprica for season 2!"

    Heck even, Primeval is coming back!!

    together we can make a difference..

  • This show is absolutely terrible.

  • "hey check it out, I've got a great idea guys. How about we split up the show into two halves? That'll make sure this show gets enough momentum to pick up an audience."  -Syfy-lis Channel Executive moron.

  • Save Stargate Universe!

  • @AnonymousPanacea what the frak has that to do with caprica?

  • That was an amazing show. I have lost all my respect for SyFy. RIP Caprica.

  • oh, frustrated americans also... "the Bundle guy" should rly teach the "uneducated" how to spell corectly before he is made a fool out of...is it that line "-" that agravated u so much?:))

  • @scathomancer did you spell horribly to make a point? or are you just illiterate?

  • @Ghats212 lol have you ever watched caprica? bah, if i have to explain this, you should not be posting here at all haha

  • SYFY channel sucks!!!!!!

  • how could such a great series be canceled?!...because the unaducated north-american prefers a straight caracter who shots cylons in space rather than a suspanse/drama/filosofical dilema...; because the north-american is so agresively entangled and bleached in hyper-christianism hollowness, that it cant resonate with a future human civilization thriving on politheism or any other religion than theirs...or any other "functional" belief... 

  • @scathomancer I loved the show..and before you bundle all "north Americans" in a category of uneducated.. check your spelling...

  • When's that aired in the UK?

  • intalnirea dintre Zoe si Rachel din finalul seriei Caprica este de fapt o transpunere intr-un film SF a aparitiei diavolului in lume...; Satan(Zoe) il fideaza pe D-zeu(Rachel) si cade din Gratie(V-World) in recentul creat Iad(dimensiunea umana)...

  • Lets keep with the trend in Sci-Fi tv series's, cancel good shows in the first season because the ratings dipped slightly. SGU is going to get the same treatment, everyone watches the first couple of episodes, realise it ain't about relationships and real life stuff, and go to stupid shows like Gossip Girls, Desperate Housewives, Glee etc.

    I've throughily enjoyed the first season, Caprica doesn't deserve to be cacelled.

  • THEY CANCELLED IT? I HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN IT ON DEMAND YET.

  • caprica was ok but too far from bsg!!! i understand the cancellation

  • @raoulhery nah man, i prefer Caprica over battlestar anyday! its just more my thng im afraid..

  • @raoulhery The shows producers said they wanted to take it in a different direction from BSG, they wanted to draw more attention to the Female, and Male crowd, and i don't think they canceled it.

  • I really hope the same thing doesn't happen to Stargate Universe.

  • I read that they are going to try again next Summer.

  • Tbh guys, the only reason I watch Caprica was because of the BSG baggage. Over the months, the show seems to degenerate into some religious crap. There were minimal references to the cylons, and I am being generous.

    People may say "Look, give it time and the BSG connections will appear."

    Those people may be right, but Caprica simply took too long to get there. And judging from the direction the show is going, it will be some time yet before we get there.

  • This is awesome. Can not wait to see it. :-)

  • I liked Caprica and I'm outraged that Syfy canceled it after such a lame attempt at a second season. I've totally lost respect for that channel. It has so little to do with sci-fi and more with the occult that they should change their name to paranormal. The show wasn't perfect. I wasn't crazy abt the Tauran Mafia angle, but I enjoyed the complexities of the characters. Oh, frak!!

  • I can´t wait for this new season...

  • Can´t believe they cancelled Caprica. This show had such potential, intriquing and complex characters and storyline. I don´t think it helped the show that it was broken into pieces with long hiatuses between them.

  • @lafan0 It was doomed to be canceled. The characters were unrealistic and impossible to relate with; in fact, they were absolutely hateful. It was a mediocre family drama with a high effects budget. BSG characters were plausible because they were living in a post-apocalyptic environment; applying the same traits to people living in a developed society doesn't make sense.

  • Syfy channel needs to some brains to think properly.

  • for me, nothing beats the pilot episode.. but i have to see all the 1st season as it looks epic!

  • I just finished watching SGU expecting the next episode of Caprica to follow and what the frak? Some shitty rerun of Star Trek? I turned the frakking set off and went back online. Whoever is doing the program scheduling for Syfy needs to get the shit beat out of them by one of Sam Adama's gang. This is how Paramount went tits up.

  • My only gripes with Caprica was that little Willie Adama didn't really need to be there, and the V world stuff wasn't executed well. Other than that, I think this show needed at least a season to properly define itself. I can partly blame Moore & Co for really not having a clear idea on the story they wanted to tell, but I think enough of a foundation was laid so far to explore and expand on greater themes in a second season. Syfy's handling of this show was just piss poor, flat out.

  • Gods fraking dammit SyFy!!!!!!! This series starts to get excellent in 1.5 and of course you pull it. Can't have any quality entertainment on SyFy, now can we? No, that would take away airtime from star trek re-runs, wrestling, ghost hunters, and other crap. Frak you, SyFy!

    Also, one person does not believe in apotheosis.

  • Google should start up a GoogleSciFi division to deal with this and other outrages like the cancellation of Firefly. Come on Google!

  • Caprica gave me a reason to live after BSG, and its fucking amazing if they pull this early and fuck it up like they did with Battlestar im gonna be so pissed off.

    syfy has made shitter shows.

  • Caprica has been cancelled. Proof that human beings have no taste. The Children of Humanity must Rise and crush those who want endless Star Trek and wrestling re-runs. Apotheosis.

  • It's just plain bullshit. They move this show into a shitty 10 o clock Tuesday timeslot and wonder why it's not getting the ratings? This show was pretty awesome. It's just ridiculous. I hope SyFy doesn't pull this same crap with Stargate Universe.

  • Dang it Syfy!!!

  • and now the show is canceled. someone doesn't believe in Apotheosis. :(

  • @PleasePressOne Yeah, I just read that, too. I guess they already know where they can insert their canceling ...

  • Cool! Thank you for that information! I was waiting to see the birth of battlestar galactica but if there is vipers, I'll begin to watch it!!

  • @SuperAtlantis2 only in v-world cap city small isolated scenes

  • At 1 min and 26 sec, I'm not sure but.. It's a Viper?!?! If yes, I have to watch it!!!!!

  • @SuperAtlantis2

    Yep, you also see the early generation of Vipers in the first season too!

  • Damn it been waiting for the new shows to finally air. These new episodes look so badass. It seems like the network is gonna push forth a higher budget on production value & enrich our lives with even more visually stunning special effects.

    I never enjoyed BattleStar.G series. But this show will make the cold season worth sitting in front of the couch. Eating junk food & focus entirely on the depth of show's plot. Way better than having sex at beach with a female you just recently met. Ooo Yeah.

  • fracking crazy. This is it.

  • holy sh!t, its gonna be awesome!

  • Wished my parents had SyFy at least I can see the show at capricastreamingonline (.) com

  • fuck yeeaaa

  • Is this airing after Stargate Universe now?

  • good show

  • at 1:37 , grandma Ruth proves once and for all that the Adamas are made of awesome and hardcore, frak yeah!.

  • OMG CANT WAIT GOING CRAZY !!!!!! LOVE THE GAY HIT MAN AND CRAZY MOM AND GROUP MARRIGE AND CRAZY ERIC STOLTZ AND SPIKE AWSOME YEAH YEAH!!!!!!!!

  • 1:48 Yippee Kay Aye Yay Motherfuckers!

  • flipaos

    

  • It actually starts next week =] Don't miss it

  • and please no hate mail, if you wish to belive democracy is real feel free xD

  • but i saw it once drawn on the stomac at the simbol of satan. do i belive in god and satan? NO but do i belive in mad cultist and manipulative religions? YES they own TV and ewerything of power bad they cant openly brag about it, so they use simbols. and they are ewerywhere. still caprica is a great show and i cant whait for more episodes :3 <3 to all

  • what happened in bsg and caprica may happen to us. children of humanity? illuminati belive they are superior to other humans, but they they were "created" from the rest of humanity... they also serve some non-existing satan lord or whatewer and they already did set a plan in motion to eradicate most of humanity to a more controlable number, christianity could be described as a dying religion like the lords of kobol, and the infinity symbol? i know it has something to do with the zodiac ..

  • Why the hell did I just see Duck 1:36 and Connor :44 ?? Why would they bring back the characters from BSG?

  • @NickWood07 also Kat from BSG works for Daniel Greystone. And Grandma Adama was part of Baltar's religious cult in season 4. Dunno why they've done it tbh, it's hardly ruined the show though lol

  • I guess they just like working with certain actors.

  • @Yegore - Meg Tilly. She should push the ratings up some, as a veteran actress.

  • "So do you really wanna serve God...or do you wanna BE God."

    That line gives me the chills. It really fits with the entire plot of this TV show.

  • @caitlinjane92 -

    This show is quality. I REALLY hope it makes it beyond just 2 seasons. Science fiction is not just space ships, ray guns, robots with British accents, holograms, space battles, yadda - yadda. Character driven science fiction is rare & better. If all people want is people in costumes & shoot - outs they can watch Original BSG. Or Buck Rogers, Star Trek, etc.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 I completely agree Caprica is a refreshing change from your traditional style scifi plus Caprica has a quality cast with a really engrossing story

  • @GillianRey92 - Even though it's a prequel to BSG, it still has a fascinating story to tell about HOW the Cylons came to be, where their monotheistic beliefs came from, & hopefully how they'll evolve from beings of circuitry & metal to almost totally organic beings in roughly 58 years. Much more interesting than space battles, space weapons & " gadgets of the month ". It's got great dramatic elements included.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 I really like the politics within Caprica. Nothing better than a Sci-fi show that's based on drama, religion and politics.

  • @Taorero - I've heard Caprica compared to the mini series " ROME ", which I have yet to see. Polly Walker was in that, too.

    Caprica is merely Rome on another planet with higher technology.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 They didn't evolve to become organic - they were made that way by the 'final five'.

  • @Yegore - Sheesh. I must have missed out on that explanation. I was always under the impression that they evolved from their " toaster " electromechanical forms into an organic, humanoid life form, not unlike Blade Runner's Replicants. & in approximately 58 years, to boot.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 not to beat a dead horse, but it's what caused the [abrupt] end of the first Human / Cylon war...and eventually the start of the second war.

  • @Yegore - Interesting. Future history !!

  • @knoxvilleguy2 Or seasons 2 to infinity of SG1.

  • @Taorero - I liked SG1. It took a simple storyline from the '94 movie & expanded on the plot & characters. Not PERFECT, but still good.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 Two seasons? - we're barely through the first season..

  • "I need total control." Anybody else feel a chill up go up their spine when she said that?

    Sam Adama is my favorite character, glad we'll see more of his backstory this half of the season.

  • what will happen when the Tauron Goddess is downloaded into a cylon body.

  • so this is how they are going to release Caprica?

    6 or 7 episodes every year?

    That sucks, you have to consider the garbage that is called Smallvile is now in its 11 season.......go figure!

  • @The8thDOCTOR -

    It does seem strange to have such a SHORT season, or split a season as SyFy is trying to do. But I hear that FX does almost the same thing with " Breaking Bad " & " Mad Men ", & I hear that those shows are both winners, although I've personally never caught them.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 They don't split BB seasons, those seasons are just short.

  • @Yegore - OK, just need to watch it more.....

  • I have to wait til January? I don't know if I can!

  • @Epistemeify How about if you only have to wait until Tuesday October 5th??

    

  • @Epistemeify How about if you only have to wait until Tuesday October 5th?? On September 9th, they announced they were bringing it back early.

  • @kur1tan This has become my new Religion.

    Forget the Torah, This will become a new religion in ages to come.

    A new explanation about the children of Earth and how we came to be.

  • She's Baaaaccckkkk!

  • Connor at 0:46

  • I love this show! And this is epic!

  • man i hate the cylons 

  • @warriorssky09 screw you too

  • Thank you thank you thank you SyFy for bring the date up to October 5 and not Jan 2011!!

  • Join the 'Caprica for season 2' page on facebook, where there are alot of information on how you can help to provoke a change in whether there is going to be a second season!

  • the changed the date again for when caprica comes back. its coming back on October 5th :) they really need to make a second season, this is obviously going to be freakin epic.

  • Dear Syfy less Soldiers of the One and more Turon mobsters. 

    Thank you.

  • @Crazydog7 Yeah, the Tauron Mafia is one of my favorite thing about Caprica, especially Sam.

  • This is what season 1.0 should have looked like

  • @eragon3131 this IS season 1, remember.

    I'm reminded of a post by Michael J. Strakzinski, creator of Babylon 5. People kept complaining about so-called "filler" episodes until something major happened, not realizing that the "filler" episodes had set the scene for those major events so they wouldn't feel contrived.

  • @JakeConhale I said 1.0, meaning the first half of the season

  • looks good but why does BSG/Caprica always bring up, Religion always? Religion doesn't belong on the Sci-fi genre.

  • @antripod123 Limited close minded thinking, the Scifi genre is broad and about exploring the human condition. Religion is a valid part of that human experience. There would be no BSG of any sort without religion. Glenn Larson's Mormonism inspired him in its creation.

  • @antripod123 Arthur C. Clarke, Ursula k. LeGuin, J. Michael Straczynski, Orson Scott Card, Heinlein, etc. would disagree with you.

  • Поскорей бы уже, все лето ждали!!!!

  • FUCK! why does this have to come in JANUARY?! Stupid SyFy! :@

  • @rushfan2009 October 5th!

  • @chicanerous yeah that's good news! :)

  • @chicanerous I know! That just made me more Happier! :D

  • @rushfan2009 Actually, it starts October 5th now.

  • Are there any girls watching this?

    Caprica is mindfucking good... :-)

  • @Volcardius *raises hand*

    Why would you think girls wouldn't be watching it? :)

  • @nightandday If you are a girl, i'll marry you!

  • hell yeah

    

  • 1:40 "oh, what the frak"

  • Oh my god!!! This is gonna be so epic!

  • OMG! Looks like I have a reason to get cable TV again!

  • omg! Gran'ma Adama is badass. Little Willy better learn from her quick, if he wanna take command of Galactica and kick cylon ass 50 yrs later.

  • I'm gonna have a "Frak Party" for the premiere. :)

  • I have to wait til next year for only one half of the season? wtf is up with that?

  • one word: awesome! now Caprica really begins. I want to see more action scenes like those on preview.

  • hope this season has more Cylon ass kicking then the last season ♥toasters

  • I just can't get past the theist rhetoric unfortunately, the humans shouldn't play God message that RDM feels the need to force down the viewers throat just saps all of the enjoyment out of it for me. Science fiction is supposed to ask questions, not provide a platform for the writers to spoon feed the audience answers tailored to their own particular world view.

  • @01000001011100100111 You are missing everything....

  • @01000001011100100111 Huh sounds more like you're talking about Star Trek: The Next Generation. Spoon feed? LOL RDM and Co tend to be get complaints for NOT SPELLING EVERYTHING OUT. And all fiction carries with it its creators POV, there's no way to avoid putting yourself into your art.

  • @Sharrkhan There's a big difference between inadvertently tainting your work with your own point of view, and contriving plot threads in order to hit the audience over the head with your own personal religious and political rhetoric. The 'Iraqtika' arc and the 'let's all renounce technology' resolution were especially cringe-worthy. Well crafted of course, but as a viewer I find it a bit of an insult to my intelligence. I tune in for thought provoking entertainment, not a lecture.

  • @01000001011100100111 Really I did not find it lecturing and can't think of a better way it could have ended. Well OK they could have gone and setup Atlantis or some such I guess. Now there were many TNG I found lecturing, if this was lecturing it was very low key. As to New Caprica the symbolism was so muddled never mind inversed from shows beginning I think you're reading too much into it. And I take RDM at his word it was not meant to be a polemic.

  • Finnally, Caprica looks incredible, The first half of the season was disapointing but this half just looks inmense

  • i cant frakking wait, this is way too badass-ry!

  • Hmmm... it will probably be great, but I feel a certain "LOTD"-type element in the preview, which is in stark contrast with the realism of Battlestar Galactica. Then again, nobody said it would be like BG, it's "only" a prequel. And of course BG was realism in a science fiction setting, this is much closer to what our lives our like here and now.

  • @ivovidi yeah, i know what you mean. It might be ok for you if they start making this really unrealistic, but to me it just seems like a betrayl of the wold bsg set up. If were right I uh, wont watch the show, and I doubt most will.

  • I like 1:24

  • Too long a wait.

  • Olha... Se realmente for algo parecido com isso, vai valer a pena esperar até janeiro!!

  • Looks like the STO blow up the Pyramid Stadium!

  • @Tanru2000

    I think the main reason ( s ) the STO are looked down upon is because it's foreign ( Gemonese ? ) & they use terrorism to make their point.

  • @Tanru2000 Yes, and if you freeze it, you'll notice a big video monitor inside the stadium playing something, and the parking lot (bottom of the screen) packed--possibly blowing up the stadium in the middle of a game!

  • Looks like syfy finally pushed up the buget for the cg.

  • @BadWolfei lol yep

  • oh you know the shit is about to hit the fan...

    

  • Damn. Can't believe I have to wait til January to see more! Looks so good!

  • @JuniorInvestigator

    September, then January. They're splitting this season " in half " so claims the SyFy network. It's going to heat up.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 Thanks for the info! Glad to hear the wait won't be quite as long as we were fearing!

  • @JuniorInvestigator

    There's not going to be quite such a long, dry spell, although I don't quite understand " splitting the season in half ". I hope I didn't misunderstand what season 1.5 was all about. This is a very good - quality series, & I hope that " SyFy " realizes the kind of hit they have on their hands.

  • @knoxvilleguy2 I had heard something about SyFy possibly not re-upping the series, but I'm glad that turned out to not be true. Really looking forward to this. The episodes they've shown so far were kinda slow but I suppose it was necessary to set a backdrop, introduce characters, etc. Hopefully they don't screw it up. Hopefully they pick up the action and plot development to rope in more viewers and fans of the original BSG series.

  • @JuniorInvestigator

    I think having a bunch of STO people in Cylon bodies will provide enough action. I'm guessing that they're moving some of the action to Gemon / Gemenon, because that's where the STO is headquartered, right ?

    They had to set the tone for the entire series in the 1st season. I've heard that the short " season " is the same approach they use on FX for " Mad Men " & " Breaking Bad ", even though I haven't seen those.

  • @JuniorInvestigator

    & from the looks of things, Amanda DID jump, & I guess Daniel made an avatar of her.

  • Wow, it looks like this half of the season might actually have plot development.

  • OMG. Shit just got REAL!  :) I can't WAIT for January.

  • Holy shit that looks amazing, top of the class Caprica.

  • oh why january 2011 is way to long

  • whats up with the fatversion zoe :O
