Sci Fi Wire posted a new interview with Battlestar Galactica and Caprica producer Ronald D. Moore and here are excerpts.
Regarding a second season of Caprica, Moore said "It's an expensive show for Syfy, for a basic cable show, and the ratings are not gangbusters, but the ratings have been ticking up and we're building momentum. It's been critically well received, so there's a good buzz on the show. It adds a lot of prestige to the network, but the network also has its own business people that have to figure out a cost analysis on it. I feel like we're gonna get it. I always felt like we were gonna get it on Battlestar. We'll just have wait and see."
As for that other potential BSG spin-off, Moore insisted it was "really nothing yet." Syfy approached him and producing partner David Eick, and it's still early stages. "[They] said, 'We have this concept for a format in which to do a show. Would you be interested?'" Moore recalled. "We kind of said, 'Yeah, that's interesting. What would it be?' And we had some conversations about what the parameters of the show would be. We're really at the very beginning of that whole process, so there's really nothing definitive yet, but we are sort of talking back and forth about what it might be. It'd be in this [BSG/Caprica] universe."
Whatever it is, Moore added, it won't necessarily be for TV or, for that matter, a theatrical release. "It's potentially something that may be not TV, or not TV exclusively," he said. "It's very fluid."
