Some fans have said that Caprica should have been a war story, like Galactica was, but thats not my problem with it. Caprica was certainly an audacious effort on the part of its writers and producers to present a culturally and morally complex, intriguing world a backstory worth of Galactica. But as I said in my recent review of Universals Caprica: Season 0 on DVD, my own issue with the show and its a BIG one is that I just didnt like any of its characters. Now, its not necessarily required for a viewer to like all of shows characters, but you DO need some kind of emotional investment by an audience for the drama to really matter. And its been terribly hard to become invested in these people, because bionicle 3 web of shadows part 9 seem to have any redeeming qualities. Youve got industrialists screwing each other over, lawyers working for mob bosses, thug enforcers, teens-turned-terrorist, a religious zealot with delusions of grandeur, an emotionally frail mother in mourning and a couple of dead girls playing ninja in the Caprican equivalent of the Matrix these arent exactly the kind of people who inspire likability. Apparently, the remaining episodes of the show will now be aired early in 20 Universal had just today announced the DVD release of Caprica: Season 5 on 12/21 one wonders now if that will be delayed until after the episodes air, and if the studio will even bother with a Blu-ray release. Well try to find out. Thankfully, Syfy has already greenlit work on another new prequel, Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome, which will follow the adventures of a young William Adama as a Viper pilot during the first Cylon War. Inspired, no doubt, by the flashback scenes in Razor. Yes, thats a war so Battlestar fans might warm up to it a little better. Personally though, I just REALLY hope that Caprica s producers learn the key lesson in all this. Next time, lets have at least a couple likable characters. Please?
