Mo Ryan got the news yesterday...
The "Battlestar Galactica" prequel "Caprica" will have some familiar names among the credits when it debuts next year on Sci Fi.
Jane Espenson, co-executive producer of “Battlestar Galactica,” will have that title on “Caprica” and will eventually become “Caprica’s” showrunner.
...Ron Moore said he’d be running the writers’ room when it first convenes in early February, but he added that at some point, he’d be handing over those day-to-day showrunner duties to Espenson, who will take on the title executive producer midway through the season.
...Espenson said that "Battlestar" writers Michael Taylor and Ryan Mottesheard would also be joining the "Caprica" staff. On Jan. 16, the day "Battlestar" returned with the first of its final 10 episodes, Galactica Sitrep reported that "Battlestar's" composer, Bear McCreary, as well as its production designer, Richard Hudolin, and special effects supervisor, Gary Hutzel, would also be working on "Caprica."

great news. jane is one of the best things to happen to bsg.
This is great news...Moore, Espenson and Taylor are all talented. And if they hire some new blood? That's good too. Moore is obviously good at choosing writers for his shows.
I love Taylor's and Espenson's work on the show, too. This will definitely affect the style of Caprica, and that's great news.
By the way, I hope I'm not indiscreet, but are you guys considering continuing this blog with more Caprica-oriented stuff after The Plan airs, too? That would be awesome.
