The Battlestar Galactica phenomenon continues with this undeniably compelling
look at where the real conflict between humans and the Cylons began in a vibrant
world remarkably like our own: Caprica.
Fifty-eight years before Battlestar takes off, two powerful families the
Graystones and the Adamas find their destinies irrevocably intertwined after a
devastating explosion. As both houses struggle with the line where humanity ends
and artificial intelligence the Cylon race begins, they'll face off in a
battlefield of corporate conspiracy, murder, sexual politics and family
backbiting.
As the series races towards its stunning conclusion, the seeds are sown for
the inevitable, brutal clash between the newly-born Cylon race and its human
creators. This critically acclaimed series is from Executive Producers Ronald D.
Moore and David Eick and stars Golden Globe nominee Eric Stoltz and Esai
Morales.

Reviews
“The new offering, from executive producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick
(the team behind "BSG”), stands on its own and in many ways might be more
inviting to viewers who are not hard-core sci-fi fans." San Francisco
Chronicle
“Less action-packed than BSG, but still awash in the familiar themes of
life, loss, identity, and big frakkin' robots with guns.”
Entertainment weekly
“If this prequel can maintain the quality of its initial salvo, that will
likely motivate at least those viewers to beseech whatever gods they pray to
that Caprica be blessed with a prolonged stay in this place called Earth.”
Variety
“There's enough going on in Caprica to keep a sci-fi fan, or anyone who
likes to settle into a good story, satisfied and even beguiled–and though
it's shot too dark those watching on an upscale, big-screen TV will be treated
to a visual spectacular.” Washington Post
“While the technology is inventive, fear, frustration, and anguish still
drive the plot. We’re back in “Battlestar’’ territory, and that feels
good.” Boston Globe
