Like last week's episode, "Here Be Dragons" was directed by Michael Nankin. You can rate it below.

There is a new(ish) behind-the-scenes clip on Hulu. It's a tour of the STO camp with Magda Apanowicz, with Michael Nankin and Christopher Heyerdahl also making brief appearances. If you haven't seen any episodes since "False Labor," there are probably some minor spoilers for "Blowback" and "The Heavens Will Rise" in the video (embedded below).

The apple campaign continues this week. You can find an update on the Save Caprica blog. 

From the description on Amazon, the European Caprica 1.0 DVD (out on January 3, 2011) will have the same extras as the region 1 release. Too bad that it's too late for international sales to count.

Previews for Caprica 1x14, "Blowback," and Q&A with Alessandra Torresani & Sasha Roiz

Syfy has posted a bunch of new clips on the official site. Other than the teaser and two sneak peeks from Caprica 1x14, "Blowback," there is also the second part of the Q&A with Alessandra Torresani and Sasha Roiz. The videos are embedded below. The synopsis for "Blowback" at Syfy.com reads: "Lacy's journey to Gemenon turns into a race against the clock."

First, Chicago Now has a really great interview with Sasha Roiz that's pretty recent and has some vague spoilers for the rest of the season, as well as a few details about his episode of House. Follow the link for the whole article. Snippet (spoilers):

Is Sam going to get his hands dirty again?
His hands are always dirty. Like I said, this storyline leads up to such an amazing climax at the end of the season that I think you're going to be pretty blown away. He is definitely going to get his hands dirty. He is a bit of like a loner in many ways and it's definitely going to become very apparent. There is some stuff that he is going to decide to do and he is just going out on his own in some ways, so it's going to be very interesting.

Is he getting any new tattoos?
I don't ... wait a minute. I think there is one, yeah. I think there is a new tattoo. I totally forgot. Yeah, of course there is. Yeah, there is. There is a new tattoo coming. As he climbs the ranks of the Ha'la'tha like, there is certainly a symbolism to that. So there is definitely a new tattoo coming.

Also, the transcript of the conference call he did a few weeks back is pretty interesting to revisit after last night's episode.

More updates:

Fort McCoy, with Eric Stoltz, has won the prize for Best Feature Film at the Hollywood Film Festival. Hollywood News has the report.

Friday Night Lights, with Jeffrey Reiner, Patrick Massett and John Zinman serving as producers, returns for its fifth and final season tonight (Wednesday, Oct. 27) at 9 pm ET on DirecTV. Scott Porter will make a guest appearance in the seventh episode.

Here is the synopsis for "False Labor" from the official site:

Political trouble on Tauron causes Sam to put his own life in danger.

Elsewhere, SciFiTV.com.au has posted a video chat with Ryan Robbins. He mostly talks about Sanctuary, but there are some interesting bits about Caprica and the characters he played on Battlestar Galactica. As it turns out, there was one we didn't get to see (Head Baltar).

Paula Malcomson won't only appear in episode 1x06 of The Event, but also episode 1x07, "I Know Who You Are." SpoilerTV has the synopsis.

Previews for Caprica 1x12, "Things We Lock Away"

Syfy has posted the teaser and two previews for episode 1x12, "Things We Lock Away," which airs next Tuesday at 10 pm on Syfy.

The podcast hasn't been posted yet, but will probably show up by the end of the day here, with commentary from Magda Apanowicz and Tom Lieber. Not to forget, last night's episode of Glee is also available on Hulu.

The four new clips below are a scene from "Retribution" with Magda Apanowicz and James Marsters, the teaser for "Things We Lock Away," and two sneak previews of the episode. One is a scene with Alessandra Torresani in New Cap City and the other one has Eric Stoltz and John Pyper-Ferguson discussing some finer aspects of a massive plot point that happens in the next episode.

New Caprica video: scene from episode 1x02

Here is a clip from the second episode, with Alessandra Torresani and Magda Apanowicz, from The Daily Beast:

8 new Caprica featurettes, new synopsis

SyFy has released eight new Caprica clips, including an exclusive scene from the pilot and a couple of behind-the-scenes clips with the cast talking about what's to come on the show.

This is the new official synopsis:

On the vibrant world of Caprica, in a culture recognizably close to our own, two dynamic families – the Graystones and the Adamas – live separately on opposite ends of society until they are brought together by tragedy.

Daniel Graystone (Eric Stoltz), a computer engineering genius, owns a large corporation that is spearheading the development of artificial intelligence. His unwavering professional pursuits are driven to extreme measures when personal tragedy strikes him and his wife Amanda (Paula Malcomson): their strong-willed daughter Zoe (Alessandra Torresani) dies in a terrorist bombing fueled by an underground religious dogma. Unbeknownst to her parents, the teenager had also been dabbling in these radical teachings, which were secretly propagated by her school’s headmistress, Sister Clarice Willow (Polly Walker).

Also living on Caprica but deeply entrenched in a cultural heritage that sets them apart from the rest of civilization, is the Adama clan. The family is helmed by Joseph Adama (Esai Morales), a renowned criminal defense attorney – with questionable ties and sometimes-devious methods – and father to William (Sina Najafi) and Tamara (Genevieve Buechner). When Joseph’s wife and daughter perish in the same attack that befell Zoe Graystone, Joseph’s path soon crosses Daniel’s, and the two become united in their grief.

Soon after, Daniel lets Joseph in on a sinister secret: he’s discovered that Zoe, a computer genius in her own right, had been experimenting with perilous virtual reality technology along with her friend Lacy (Magda Apanowicz), and managed the impossible: she created a life-like avatar of herself, a perfect digital copy. Obsessed with the possibility of seeing his daughter once again, and preying on Joseph’s shared emotions, Daniel implores his new confidante to help him make Zoe’s vision a complete reality. Appalled by the ethical implications of recreating a soul, but aching to bring his own daughter back to life, Joseph complies… and the fate of the human race is altered forever.

And here are the clips:
