"Battlestar Galactica" Prequel is Geenlit

Battlestar Galactica Prequel is GeenlitSubmit Comment
Sci Fi Channel has greenlit "Caprica," the much-anticipated prequel to hit series "Battlestar Galactica."

"Caprica" will star Eric Stoltz, Esai Morales, Paula Malcomson and Polly Walker, and will be set 50 years prior to "Galactica's" seminal attack on human civilization by the Cylons. Family-drama-themed series will focus on the Earthlike planet of Caprica as two rival families deal with, among other topical issues, the broader implications of their society's emerging artificial intelligence technology sector.

The pilot was co-written by Aubuchon and Moore and directed by Jeffrey Reiner ("Friday Night Lights").

Having already produced a two-hour backdoor pilot, Sci Fi is aiming for an early 2010 bow for the series, with production starting around the middle of next year, probably in Vancouver, where both "Galactica" and the spin-off's pilot were shot.

So let me get this straight...they cancel BSG and chop up the season and destroy any timely continuity so much so that many viewers are barely interested in the final episodes only to greenlight a prequel series that sounds like a retarded techno spin on the Capulet-Montague feud. Typical scifi channel doing things half assed and backwards. Shouldn't they be clearing as many timeslots as possible to allow for more stupid and unwatchable Stargate series? "Stargate: Miami! Horatio in Space!" This Summer only on SciFi!
