Possible ASFR content ahead?

Hey, everyone!

I caught a commercial for Battlestar Galactica: Caprica last night. From what little I know about the series, it is about the period immediately preceding the first Cylon War (including the creation of the cylons). I didn't really have any intention of watching this series after the horror that was the last episode of BSG, but something in this promo caught my eye.

From what I can make out, the premise is that the creator of the cylons did it to create a robot duplicate of his dead daughter. In BSG the humanoid cylons were basically just cloned humans, but there is a shot in the promo that has the cylon's inventor standing in front of a mechanical looking body that didn't look like a centurion. Later, we see a woman who is apparently his daughter, and the implication is that she is a cylon.

I was just wondering if the humanoid cylons in Caprica might be honest-to-goodness androids instead of just humans with a bad attitude, and whether the series might involve some actual ASFR-type content. The Wiki page says that the plot revolves around downloading her virtual avatar into a "robot body," so I'm unsure if the woman was the virtual version and the robot body will be a conventional-looking cylon. Does anyone else have any more info?

Ah well, such is life.

Maybe it's because I don't watch too many movies/TV, but we haven't had a real fembot show up in anything for a while, have we?

What's the matter? Is it too unrealistic? In a world where primitive fembots already exist, they should be seen as more realistic than ever.

Here! Here! Kirby....

I fully agree with you. I guess after the whole Chronicales of Sarah Connor deal...and the Surrogates not being a big bang, I think no one is brave enough to make a show...for television that is. Oh well, we can remember the past with the Bionic Woman, The Lost Saucer and even Logan's Run.

I've long given up on the great unwashed media. They act according to their memes and most are at a right angle to ASFR expectations and worse in my case.

I should be happy to see good content about once in a decade ...
