I wish Caprica wasn't cancelled. I liked their portrayal of a poly group.
I can't remember if the show did it, but in The Expanse books poly relationships were part of Belter life, especially on smaller ships
On Earth too! One of the main characters (Jim Holden) was raised by a poly family with 8 parents on a ranch in Montana.
if I'm not mistaken, belters are poly because they looked being really close and personal in a ship, while Holden's family was more because legal issues and land rights. Holden's family wasn't a normal thing on earth, while Belters polycules were like the norm for Belters.
It’s written differently in the books vs on the show. On the show it’s definitely more of a legal thing for land rights
The show briefly showed Drummer in charge of a small poly crew.
It did: they gave Drummer Michio Pa's story in the last couple seasons.
Is it worth watching? I liked Battle Star Galactica very much but wasn't convinced enough to watch Caprica
I'd say no. I liked it well enough. But it's frustrating with all the unresolved plotlines.
But it's been a really long time since I've watched it, so maybe there's some awesome stuff I forgot.
If there was awesome stuff worth remembering, you would at least remember something. From what I've heard, it's the backstory of – I don't even remember their names – and I wasn't particularly interested in them. So I guess I will leave it.
It was good and had potential but was cancelled way too early. The finale was a montage to try and wrap the story up. Very frustrating.
