'''Baxter Sarno''' is a | '''Baxter Sarno''' is a [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]]-based comedian and late night talk show host of ''[[Backtalk with Baxter Sarno]]''. Sarno's major audience consists primarily of teenagers and college students. He is seen as anti-corporate, and he is a staunch critic of the [[holoband]] technology and the moral decline he perceives coming from its use ([[CAP]]: "[[The Reins of a Waterfall]]," "[[False Labor]]"). | ||
After [[Amanda Graystone]]'s ill-conceived declaration that [[Zoe Graystone]] was one of the bombers of the [[Maglev]] commuter train, he makes comical critiques and opines on the Graystones and their brand, in particular the said holoband technology. This forces [[Daniel Graystone]] to make his first ever appearance on the show to shift the blame from the holoband to his daughter. Sarno is pleasantly surprised when Daniel (with his wife, Amanda) declares that [[Graystone Industries]] will offer open access to the holoband technology and [[virtual world]] licensing, in addition to noting that any proceeds from sales of said technology will be donated to a charity fund ([[CAP]]: "[[Gravedancing]]"). | |||
Sarno later hosts Daniel's chief rival, [[Tomas Vergis]], on the show. After gratefully receiving a gift of [[Tauron (RDM)|Tauron]] cigars from his guest, Sarno's interview leads to the revelation that Vergis intends to become a citizen of Caprica ([[CAP]]: "[[Know Thy Enemy]]"). | |||
Several years after these events, Sarno conducts a special interview in the [[Graystone Estate]] with Daniel about the unprecedented popularity of [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylons]] in Caprican society ([[CAP]]: "[[Apotheosis (episode)|Apotheosis]]"). | |||
Other than a scathing joke about his "first and third marriages," details about his personal life is unknown ([[CAP]]: "Gravedancing"). | |||
