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.

Thankfully, Caprica can be enjoyed without any reference to the literal past or the figurative future.

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.

Caprica is still finding itself, but it's worth your while, and if it can knit its various elements into a more coherent whole, it could get even better.

Friday's moody pilot unfolds at a listless pace and, occasionally, gets bogged down in its own density. But in it's favor, there are enough compelling characters and tantalizing questions to keep us engaged for the time being.

Again, if you loved all things Battlestar beyond measure, Caprica may satisfy. For all others, this is a planet best left unvisited.

How it all goes awry is the question that provides Caprica with its ripe potential. Unfortunately, a serious storytelling mistake in the early going has left me with doubts about whether it has the wherewithal to get there.

This serie it's outstanding, actors are great, the story also really good, sadly it was clearly cut off in the end to finish because they decided to end it for no real reasons, when you see other garbage series that have many seasons and think about "Caprica" you really understand that something it's wrong in the movie market.

This show doesn't reach the former glory of Battlestar Galactica. But it doesn't have to. The idea of the overall universe is convincing enough so that this backstory into the Human-Cylon history lets the viewer feel even more sympathetic towards them. Unfortunately, the show was canceled before its peak. The characters are very well relatable and links between Caprica and BSG are upheld.
