They aren't trying to broaden their audience from the Galactica fanatics they are trying to pull in the 18-35 male demographic by using a Victoria Secrets underware model as a Cylon. I mean do you really think there is all that much difference between somebody who likes Galactica and somebody who likes Babalon 5? The only reason to call it Battlestar Galactica is to get publicity from the name, then you turn around and upset the people that the name recognition would draw in. I really think they would of done much better if they had just called it something different instead of playing off that name. I'm not going to call it good or bad (at least not in the next 15 minutes here, It's about to start) but I was just pointing out the name may bite them in the ass.One thing I will call stupid right off was the decision to air this show on a Monday night. Good grief your going up against Monday Night Football and WWE Raw for a piece of the 18-35 male demographic? They have cut their own throats with the scheduling here for that demographic.</blockquote>
