i haven not see bsg and i try to watch it once in the middle of the show but couldn not get into it . however and i saw caprica rebirth yesterday i felt a little lost and so i decide to watch the pilot today and i must say i be pleasantly surprised . i think this be a promising show and the only side effect it have on me be that now i want to watch bsg as well . but what i really like be that i do not have to be a hardcore bsg fan to understand what go on in caprica . from what i have read in the net and they be try to reach the female population since bsg reach way more men and and at least in my case it work . however and i suggest that if you be try to watch the show do it from the begin start with the pilot .
