Some casting news on the BSG prequel "Caprica".
The matriarch of the Graystone family (owners of the corporation who builds the first cylons) will be Paula Malcomson, Trixie from HBO's Deadwood. The decision I'm happiest about is Joseph Adama will be played by Esai Morales, most recently known as Major Beck from the late CBS show Jericho. Nico Cortez will play young William Adama.

I thought he was great as Major Beck on Jericho. One of my favorite parts of Season 2, and almost made up for losing Gerald McRaney. Sounds like Caprica is going to be more "soapish" than BSG, but I'll give it a shot.

This week stucks. I finished the initial phase of a project at work on Tuesday, and since I worked last week and will work this weekend, I took today and will take tomorrow off.
So all day I've thought it was Friday. Two more days to wait. |

Me too ... though I'm really hoping they start spending less time on the whole "cult of Baltar" story arc. Kind of boring. I don't know where exactly they are going with it, but it seems like they could have got to where they are now in a lot less screen time.
I'd rather see a lot more about the cylon civil war, which must be raging all across their portion of the galaxy. |

"And the fifth, still in shadow, will claw toward the light, hungering for redemption that will only come in the howl of terrible suffering." That seems to be exactly what is going on with the whole Baltar cult story arc. Also, he (more than any other human we've seen) has the ability to "project" his own reality, which is what Number 6 told him that cylons can do when he was on the base ship -- and which he did on numerous occasions, including when he was being tortured by the cylons in season 3 and earlier when he was being tortured by the colonials (not to mention Head 6). |

I still think the prophecy fits Tom Zarek, when Roslin dies. Just a hunch. Great episode tonight. I got chills when Natalie asked Starbuck "Is that enough Human Justice for you?". Anders and the 8 was intense, and it was nice to see Nana Visitor again. Also, it's creepy when Adama smiles. Really creepy. ![]()

I'm not all that interested in watching Athena whine about Natalie "get away from my baby". 'course, there'll be more to in than that, fortunately. |
