Go ahead, slag off on the most critically acclaimed Sci Fi of the last decade, and any spin-offs, while championing crap. It totally builds your credibility....


Frak you indeed, my man.

I liked the way Caprica filled in the details of the BSG world. The new one will be only about a decade in the future, and many of the Caprica characters will still be alive. So there are opportunities to finish the Caprica story. Heh, this may make the Caprica DVD set a big seller.

Sure, I've made a bit of fun of it, but I also watched it, in it's entirety before doing so. And I'm not enough of a dick that I'd actually celebrate it's cancellation in a thread where people who like the show are discussing it.

Wait till Chuck gets the axe, I'll be there with bells to make you feel worse.

Sorry. I was out of line, and I apologize.

Oddly, so do I.

Huh.

I, for one, am sorry to see it go. I was not a fan of the pacing (especially when they would jump around from character to character then suddenly find ourselves in the middle of something and - well, find myself scratching my head as to where we were in the story).

I was more of fan of the virtual world (and not for what one may describe as action) because of the storyline, which was interesting - the afterlife or, more to the point, immortality. The story was poorly developed and executed. I expected more from Jane. It's not surprising that it was cancelled, but I did like elements, my only complaint being that the story was not served well. Too much jumping around and following each storyline without resolution or, at the very least, dovetailing, interweaving of plot lines.

It was ambitious to a fault. I agree that Eric Stoltz gave til he bled, but it wasn't enough.
The next series will probably meet the same fate.

Thanks for the apology. It's one thing to not like a show and give a reasoned argument for your point, quite another to come onto a thread and boldly say it's a s**t show or it sucks. You're not a troll, so don't start acting like one.

I occasionally lose my mind. I can stray into troll territory periodically. I make the mistake that my opinion is the most important thing, but it's just one of many.

If I venerate Battle For The Planet Of The Apes, who am I to denigrate SF works that strive for real substance?

In the end, we're all just folk.
