CapriCast 1.06 – Know Thy Enemy

Friday, March 5th, 2010


The sins of the Caprica pilot seem to be catching up with Daniel as his industrial nemesis from Vergis corporation brings Adama’s theft and murder down on Graystone Industries. If that wasn’t enough, Spike himself, James Marsters, makes his debut on the series with this episode, and it’s anyone guess what direction that could take!

CapriCast 1.00 – The Pilot DVD

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

It is upon us.

It’s taken almost a year, but the Direct-To-DVD release of Caprica has finally given way to the airing of it as parts 1 and 2 on SyFy as a regular season of television! We’ve got to say that with the Blood, Boobies and Human Sacrifice that we’ve been privy to seeing so far, it looks like Ron Moore managed to skirt the TV-Gods and Censors quite elegantly by releasing in on DVD first, but what did YOU think of the televised version? There have been quite a few times in his podcasts that he mentioned how the TV version of a Battlestar Episode wasn’t quite his ideal cut (for either time or network restrictions) but with Caprica available for first viewing as an unspoiled DVD version, we’ve already seen what Ron wants us to see… so we’re excited to get the regular reason underway!

Battlestar is over, long live Caprica!

BSGcast: The Plan

Sunday, November 1st, 2009


Jane Espenson and Edward James Olmos were the people in charge on this one: Olmos was there for every episode that went into making The Plan happen in Season 2, and Jane was there for none of them and it shows. Amazing direction, performances, visuals compliment a story that fires on all cylinders for 30 minutes and then lumbers through the rest of the first two seasons with about as much grace as a Cylon Colony.

But goddam, Dean Stockwell was delicious as F-Cavil and C-Cavil on their respective journeys and those Colonies got it good!

Make sure to leave a comment and tell us what YOU thought of The Plan, and don’t forget to enter to win “Dinner with the Admiral” compliments of Edward James Olmos and UGO!
