A few people have been asking us why we are not enjoying Caprica.  Well, I can’t really speak for my co-hosts, but I thought I’d consolidate and share all of my views on Caprica here.  Hopefully this can help explain why Caprica just isn’t a show I enjoy tuning in to at present.  And also, perhaps, why I continue to watch in the hope that it may become a show that I can enjoy.

If you listen to this week’s podcast, you will hear that this started as an e-mail response to a listener who asked (very politely, I might add) what our thoughts were on Caprica.  I’m re-printing my response here (cleaned up a little for the purposes of this article).
