"BATTLESTAR's timing could not have been more perfect. Shortly after the show premiered in January, STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE was canceled because of poor ratings. But BATTLESTAR producers dismiss talk that BATTLESTAR is the new TREK," writes César G. Soriano for USA Today.

Quote from Nuclearmothman to Hbasm:
Eve if you watch Star Trek, and only Star Trek, you are still a "sci-fi fan," whether you want to call youself one or not.
Not necessarily. Using a sports analogy: Someone may watch baseball or football, or women's gymnastics, just to marvel at physically-fit bodies, without interest in the competitive context/genre (the word "gymnasium" comes from the Greek word "gymnos", which means "naked", and original Olympics athletes performed in the nude.)
There are ENT viewers who just want to ogle their Hollywood idol. Heartthrob fantasies can become so entwined with "real" emotions that worshippers may develop a sense of having a "relationship" with "their man" and his show.
Sports fans can develop such a passionate attachment to their game that they'll even watch matches with lousy players, and perhaps boo all the while. Likewise, some STAR TREK fans might attend their once-beloved TV venue even while it has a lousy home team (ENTERPRISE).
