Re:We will see what an oracle isn’t and what I believe it is…
They did move forward on Caprica 24. Yeah, well, if it is the same Powers That be they;ll make the same mistakes they did with Painkiller Jane which is where THE hell is the new thinking?
No, rehashing any current show does not work, ya morons. Why will Bionic Woman tank, uh because it’s like all other shows. Why does Lost and Heroes and hell American Idol win, regular people; no glossed up chicks kicking ass.
These are “regular” people dealing with each other.
BSG did that at first then it got into that “character” stuff which means it all about “me”. That works for some characters but not all.
That’s why big casts AND STORY work best in today’s programming.
Unless the actor is exceptional and i mean walk on water exceptional; they don’t work well. You have to have story to fill in the blanks.
Caprica may fly, but if it’s a futuristic corporate drama it’s gonna tank; I’m screaming at you; ya gotta to put in Lampkin, ya gotta reveal connections with other well-known BSG characters on other planets.
Let me have the parents of Tyrol for example; i would make you up an oracle/ priesthood part. Hell, tie it to resistence in make it a haven for fleeing new “Cylons”.
If you cannot pull new ideas; about what can happen here it’s doomed, doomed I say.
Oh my lordy be i can see millions poured into the same old hash.
It makes me sick to think of what could be and what will be…
Please oh please don’t do it unless you can change it.
