Cylons Clash On "Caprica" - October 5

Syfy’s Vancouver-lensed "Battlestar Galactica" prequel "Caprica" will now premiere Tuesday, October 5, 2010 at 10:00 PM ET/PT, airing the second half of season one.

"...'Caprica' will transport us from stunningly vivid, twisted Virtual realities to the fascinating outer worlds of the '12 Colonies'. Along the way, revolutionary tensions rise, family power shifts and our characters grapple with the physical and emotional consequences of their questionable decisions. As the season races towards its stunning conclusion, each episode lays the groundwork for the inevitable (and brutal) clash between the new 'Cylon' race and its human creators..."

"Though we initially announced the January return of 'Caprica', we still had hopes of finding a way to get the series back on the air sooner," said Mark Stern, Executive Vice President of Original Programming, Syfy, Co-Head of Content for Universal Cable Productions.

"We’ve been able to successfully re-work our schedule, and are thrilled to bring the show back during what is traditionally Syfy’s most-watched time of the year. The outcome should also please fans who expressed their wishes for a shorter mid-season hiatus."

"Caprica" stars Eric Stoltz ('Daniel Graystone'), Paula Malcomson ('Amanda Graystone'), Esai Morales ('Joseph Adama'), Polly Walker ('Sister Clarice Willow'), Alessandra Torresani ('Zoe Graystone'), Magda Apanowicz ('Lacy') and Sasha Roiz ('Sam Adama').

October 5th will be the street date for "Caprica" - Season 1.0 :

"...The 'Battlestar Galactica' phenomenon continues with this compelling look at where the real conflict between humans and the 'Cylons' began...in a vibrant world remarkably like our own: 'Caprica'. Fifty-eight years before Battlestar takes off, two powerful families - the 'Graystones' and the 'Adamas' - find their destinies irrevocably intertwined after a devastating explosion. As both houses struggle with the line where humanity ends and artificial intelligence - the Cylon race - begins, they'll face off in a battlefield of corporate conspiracy, murder, sexual politics and family backbiting..."
