An anonymous reader writes "The Sci-Fi Channel's hit series Battlestar Galactica may soon be joined by a 50-year-prior prequel series, called Caprica. To be co-exec produced by Ron Moore and David Eick, the new series will follow the tale of the creation of the Cylons."

Battlestar Galactica is the gripping drama of human survival against unimaginable odds. When the Cylon robots rose against their human creators, they launched a devastating nuclear attack that left less than 50,000 survivors. On the run and in search of a new home, the last remnants of humanity struggle against waning supplies, weapons and hope. Redefining the space opera with its gritty realism, Galactica's intensity, issues-driven topicality, and command performances have garnered it unprecedented critical acclaim. The show has ... been honored with the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award, an Emmy, and been lauded by the American Film Institue (AFI) as one of the most outstanding programs on television for two years running. Battlestar Galactica returns to SCI FI in early 2008 for its fourth and final season.

Yes, the third season of Battlestar Galactica had some definite low points (“The Woman King”). In fact, the entire middle portion of the season was a bit of a stall. But the final four episodes were four of the greatest hours of TV produced all year. From Kara Thrace's untimely “death” to the trial of Gaius Baltar, there was plenty for fans to sink their teeth into.
