[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Neutron, the idea that people "just don't have the attention span these days for complex shows" is EXACTLY why we dont have any. The TV exec's think as little of their viewing audience as you do. If they made something complex [i]and[/i] entertaining, they would have a loyal fan-base of people that would find such a show refreshing. It's why (originally) the Discovery Channel did so well. (okay, bad example- that channel sucks saerious ass nowdays, but you get the general idea) Rev, by "advanced", I dont mean morally: I refer more to their using fucking [b]machine guns[/b] in space and not having the common sense to bolt down the large mainframes on Galactica's bridge (senseless layout there, but I'm willing to think that's a result of it's museum status). It irks me that their culture (in the miniseries, this may have been corrected already) seems an exact match for WASP-y western civilization. A [i]little[/i] diversity would have been easy to do and they decided to skip it in favor of that ol' "military flavor". i'm not saying the old series was great (FAR from it) but the people at least seemed diffrent (for the time).
