I don't care....
By DS9 Fan

...for any of this BSG vs. Star Trek bull. I haven't seen it, and I haven't seen heard anything about it to indicate that it has become as ingrained in pop-culture as Star Trek has.

I love Ron D. Moore and all(especially for DS9), but the truth is, it's got a long way to go before we can start comparing ST to that show. 40 years of Star Trek and a huge franchise isn't so easily replaced. When BSG lasts for 4 decades, survives 4 spinoffs(and the franchise will survive the cancellation of Enterprise, BTW), lands 10 movies, and has loads upon loads of software, video games, books, and collectible merchandise we'll see. It would have a lot of ground to cover.

BTW, I'm hardly shocked to hear Picard being called a pompous ass. I've thought that on more than one occasion.

I just hope that Paramount execs don't actually try to do a "reinterpretation" of Star Trek if they do another series. Continuing the saga rather than reimagining is what has worked for Star Trek. As a matter of fact, as far as I see it, that's where Enterprise stumbled. It didn't continue the saga, it went backward.
