I will not deny that some old BSG fans would not let it go and it got old real quick. But on the other hand some of the new BSG fans were equally rude they could not understand why some of the older fans were upset. If 9/11 had not happened then Bryan Singer would have made his version which was a continuation. It didn't help that before the show ever aired Olmos was going on the record telling old fans not to bother to watch the new show. And it really didn't help when the new fans would make ignorant statements like the old show got canned becuase the rating were awful. Not true the old show is one of the few shows thay was canned not because the rating were in the toilet but because the ratings were not high enough to warrant the show being shown on Sunday night where the networks got the most money. It was a very expensive show to make.Or my favorite from people who never saw the old show the characters thought they were superheroes which is why they fought the cyclons in capes.I think it has changed but it still has its moments like when David Elik made the comment about dropping ratings that it was the fault of the name BattleStar Galactica because people could not take it seriously becuase of the old show. That stirred the hornet's nest.I would love to see a show or a movie about the first female Captain. And who knows maybe Kirk's son had a child. I don't think that would break the canon much.</blockquote>
