Caprica is an upcoming television series set in the fictional Battlestar Galactica universe. Set 50 years earlier, Caprica will tell the story of how humanity first created the robotic Cylons, who would later plot to destroy human civilization.
An extended version of the pilot will have its world premiere exclusively on DVD on April 21, 2009 according to newswire
In early 2010, the first season, composed of the two-hour pilot and 18 hour-long episodes, is expected to begin airing on the Sci Fi Channel in the United States. The rights to broadcast the series have also been picked up by Sky1 in the UK and Ireland.
Battlestar Galactica:Caprica begins a brand new epic saga that continues the franchise's commitment to thought-provoking storytelling and extraordinary characters.
Set over 50 years before the events of "Battlestar Galactica," Caprica is a world at the peak of its power, grappling with new science and technologies and the issues they create. The series will star Golden Globe nominee Eric Stoltz (Mask, Pulp Fiction), Esai Morales ("Jericho," "NYPD Blue"), Paula Malcomson ("Deadwood" "ER") and Golden Globe nominee Polly Walker ("Cane," "Rome") in a story laced with passion, intrigue and family conflict.
I am a little concerned that this may turn out to be more like a soap in space than the action that we are used to although David Eick the executive producer says of it: "Part sweeping soap, part meditation on the dangerous moral ramifications of artificial intelligence, this is a truly unique opportunity to continue telling stories which will be as daring and shocking as the best of 'Galactica' -- and yet will be altogether different from 'Galactica,'"

A Galactica é uma confusão para seguir.
Caprica é uma prequela, e vai-se passar 50 anos em antes dos eventos das novas seasons:

Outra coisa é este dvd que sai já a 21 de Abril deste ano só com o piloto/mini-série. Era isso que queria esclarecer porque ao falar-se em box dá-se a entender que e trata de uma temporada o que não é verdade
