- Thoughts on Caprica (so far): c) Bill lost a sister and mother to monotheistic terrorists. That’s gotta mean something. #
- Thoughts on Caprica (so far): d) Zoe’s story, which should be the most interesting, is the least compelling so far. Too much teen-y angst? #
- Thoughts on Caprica (so far): e) Citroen had a hell of a run on Caprica 150,050 years ago. Maybe GM should consider Caprican export market? #
