Awesome episode last night.

Patton Oswald did a great job playing a talk show host. Between his work on this show and Dollhouse, I have a new respect for him as an actor.

Esai Morales also did a great job playing a morally-conflicted widower deciding between vengeance and healing.

The grandmother character is interesting. Her Tauran beliefs get more and more interesting. I also think something is up with the detective character (well, they did lead into it pretty heavy). I think we will learn more about him.

The other thing I love about the show is the backdrop of Caprica itself. Drug use is legalized. Gay marriage is legal. Polygamy is legal. Some characters view this as proof of an enlightened society, others view it as proof of moral decay.

And the previews for the next show have me thinking that the thoughts on the Tamara character above are correct...

I just noticed...

The Caprica theme music is very similar to Warehouse 13

It's been interesting to see the firearms used in the show. In the last episode Daniel Graystone pulled out a bitone H&K USP. Very cool!

Caprica - imfdb :. guns in movies :. movie guns :. the internet movie firearms database

Even in outer space German Guns are the best.

This is one Earthling that loves his Heckler and Koch.

And the cars too -- nice shot of an older Benz Sedan with the imaginary brother driving it.

Next week is the finale for the first season.

This is the problem with these shows. The seasons are way too short. Now we'll have to wait a year for another 10 episodes.

Well, V is back, Breaking Bad has restarted. Eureka will be back on soon.

I barely watch any TV of late. Haven't even watched AI yet this season. No buzz, so it hasn't really interested me.

That two tone USP was looking awesome in the last episode.

Again with trigger discipline in TV shows though-

Here's a nice futuristic USP. Someone needs to put one of these in the Caprica producer's hands....

I have the hots for Alessandra Torresani now, officially.

It's about 50% the voice, 50% the heels.
