Caprica
On April 27, 2006, the Sci Fi Channel announced that a prequel spin-off of BSG was in development.[18] Caprica will take place over 50 years before the current series, before the original Cylon War, and will chronicle the Adama family and Caprican society as well as show the advancement of technology leading to the Cylon revolt. On March 26, 2007, Ronald Moore said that the Sci Fi Channel was not picking up Caprica as a pilot, though a movie or DVD release were still possibilities. According to Moore, the show was currently "on the back burner."[19] On March 18, 2008, Ronald Moore said that it has been confirmed that the long rumored and scantily reported spin-off, Caprica is in fact a go project. Sci Fi Channel has given the green light to a two-hour backdoor pilot for the series – which means it will air as a TV movie (not unlike the promotion and rollout for "Razor") – and if successful it will get a series commitment from the network. The project is currently slated to shoot in Spring 2008 and air in the Fall. [20][21]
can this possibly live up to Battlestar? Quote:

Can't see it being as much a success. Doesn't have the whole concept of "almost everybody is dead" going behind it.

lol but it does have the concept of, how did all these cylons come into being? I'm sure it'll be allegorical as well.

I'm sure it'll be interesting, but I can't imagine it getting anywhere near as successful as Battlestar.
