Caprica will not be getting a second season. We look at some of the reasons that the show failed to attract viewers, ranging from scheduling miscues to its soap opera foundation.

Looking ahead to Blood and Chrome, is the BSG franchise played out?

In "Retribution" we learn two things: Caprica has a brief monsoon season, and Clarice takes no prisoners. We bemoan the fact that Barnabus went from badass to blabbering, and that Joseph is reduced to a note-taker.

Caprica returns with "Unvanquished." Unfortunately it failed more than once to take the necessary step forward, always backing down from what could have been a game-changing event.

We scratch our heads over Clarice and her plan, Geminon's virtual sets, and the focus on the STO. But the biggest WTF came from the last scene. The show took a turn there, but we're not sure it was a good one.

Caprica returns for the second half of Season One. Will these ten episodes be a departure from the first ten? Will the fans return, and what level of success does it need for it to be renewed by Syfy? We make a couple predictions and cross our fingers.

We interview director Michael Nankin about some of the great episodes he's done on BSG and Caprica. He discusses how he approached filming the deaths of notable characters, as well as bringing new characters and locales to life (Vergis, Barnabus, New Cap City...).

He also provides a behind-the-scenes look at some of the production decisions for several key episodes, including some scenes that didn't make the final cut.

"End Of Line" finally moves some key story points forward. The progression is nice, but there's still a long way to go.

Was it an effective mid-season cliffhanger? Does anyone care whether Amanda lives or dies? Or believe that the U-87 is toast? The call to Daniel--from whom? And is he relevant now that his company royally frakked up the robot project?

Daniel was putting Zoe through tests in "Ghosts In The Machine," but we're the one feeling tortured--whether it was the abundance of screentime for bratty Zoe or the head-scratching misadventures of Joseph in New Cap City, it was a trying viewing experience.

New Cap City has turned into a disappointment, but we still would like to know--where's Tamara?

Amanda's character continues her bizarre descent in "The Imperfections Of Memory." We ponder over her strange visions and the unusual relationships she has with Clarice and Daniel. News of a new BSG spinoff has us undeniably excited. Amanda's character continues her bizarre descent in "The Imperfections Of Memory."

News of a new BSG spinoff has us undeniably excited. Meanwhile we try to forecast what changes may be in store for Caprica, now that the show has supposedly taken a new, firmer direction.

"Know Thy Enemy" was a typical "setup" episode--but setup for what? Not a lot happened, but the introduction of Vergis and Barnabus seems to signal a shift in the story. But what of the other storylines, especially the most interesting one: Tamara?

Instead, we are left to roll our eyes over the creepy tech guy, and Clarice's slapstick spywork.

It's not the show BSG fans expected, but with "There Is Another Sky," Caprica may have finally found its footing. We were very intrigued by Tamara and her storyline in New Cap City. Her dad, however, is a mess--on the show and as a character.

The virtual world seems completely at odds with the hard-wired BSG universe, but we're hopeful for story potential. Still, we can't help but muse about some of the missed turns that the show has taken.
