Caprica is no more.
Syfy is removing the remaining episodes of the Battlestar Galactica prequel from the schedule next week. The final five episodes of the second season will air in early 2011, the network announced.
There was no nuclear armageddon to blame for Caprica‘s demise, just insufficient ratings. The show already fell from 889,000 viewers for its season 2 premiere to 718,000 last week.
The show was chronicling the creation of the robot Cylons while adding more Adama family history. It took place before the first Cylon wars and about 60 years before the events of Battlestar Galatica.
The cancellation comes less than a week after Syfy announced the development of another prequel, Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome, which follows a young William Adama fresh out of the academy and in the 10th year of the first Cylon war.
