Syfy has announced that they are not only not renewing Caprica, but they will be removing the remaining episodes from their schedule starting next Tuesday, with the intent to air them at some point in the first part of 2011.

It’s been a week since the rumor emerged that Ron Moore – the man behind Battlestar Galactica and Caprica, as well as longtime Star Trek veteran – is working on a reboot of The Wild, Wild West for networks unknown. And, after a week of thinking about it, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s [...]
