Caprica Marathon in January

Now that the Syfy Caprica fan wars have cooled down, Syfy has released details about how Caprica will be ending it's run here in the United States. Syfy's Craig Engler just tweeted from the @Syfy account that Syfy will air Caprica's final five episodes in a marathon on Tuesday, January 4th, from 6 to 11 pm.

The airdate information for #Caprica's final 5 episodes has been confirmed: They will air back-to-back on Tues, Jan 4, from 6pm-11pm

This doesn't exactly seem like the ending Caprica deserves, but it's good to know that the episodes are going to air. It looks like Caprica will be getting a send off, even if it's a humble one.
