"We appreciate all the support that fans have shown for 'Caprica' and are very proud of the producers, cast, writers and the rest of the amazing team that has been committed to this fine series. Unfortunately, despite its obvious quality, 'Caprica' has not been able to build the audience necessary to justify a second season." - The Battlestar Galactica prequel series
Caprica has been
cancelled, and it's final episodes consigned to 2011. As ever there is debate as to
what went wrong, though it looks like one complaint, the shows relative lack of action, will be addressed by the next spin-off:
Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome, set during the war years of a young William Adama.

Firefly fans might find it more interesting, though, that io9
noted a little later in the day that Nathan Fillion had
tweeted on Wednesday night a
picture of Joss Whedon, Alan Tudyk, Nathan Fillion, and Adam Baldwin all looking upward into a bright light, with the text "Together. Again." But ...
no, it doesn't mean
that, unfortunately. [Still, if you need your Simon or Kaylee fix, look to
Warehouse 13 next Tuesday, as Maher and Staite are guest-starring together in "Mild-Mannered" (
trailer).]
