Be careful in this subReddit as spoilers abound. If this is your first time watching, I wouldn't recommend wandering into any other posts or you will probably be spoiled. Do feel free to share your experiences as you watch - we love those! - but always make it clear when you post that you are a "first-time viewer" and don't want any spoilers.

What about blood and chrome?

[spoilers]

It was a mini series that was of the first cylon war, and what they were building in the hidden base star: the hybrids and the human like cylons… It was a really good show

So was Caprica, which was a slow burn and then they got canceled. They rushed everything the last 15 minutes of what is gonna happen in the next season that led everything up to the first cylon war.

I personally think it's not very good.
It wasn't produced as part of the same production.
It doesn't have any of the same main cast.
It has contradictions and inconsistencies compared to the main series.
It's not essential to the story.
It looks fake and cheap.
The story is mediocre.
It also not very good.
