SMAC - SHOWS, MOVIES & CHICKS

The Hollywood Reporter has some news about the prequel to BATTLESTAR GALCTICA called CAPRICA. What was planned as a "backdoor" pilot, dealing with the events before CYLON WAR I
and about the "creation" of the Cylons, man made robot that eventually decimated humanity.
Creator RONALD D. MOORE talks about the possibility of CAPRICA being a whole series instead of a pilot:

“We’re not sure if it’s going to air as a backdoor pilot,” says Sci Fi Channel's executive vp of programming Mark Stern at the Television Critics Association press tour. “We’re going to take a look at it and maybe just order it as a series from there. We are going to take delivery on it in a couple of weeks and then decide whether to air it as a standalone movie or as the premiere of a new series.”
