You always know when somebody's got an inferiority-complex when they immediately get personal, start throwing around the word 'elitist'

Well, you kind of fooled me, especially with:

When I was singing BSG's praises, only smart and savvy entertainment consumers were interested; the fanboys hated it because of it's grown-up elements. However, once it became 'in', they wanted to be 'cool' and predictably started pretending they always liked it

Yikes.

and with every passing year, they have all but ruined the discourse about the show with their typical dork-talk, treating it like they do the rest of sci-fi television (which BSG shouldn't be compared to, as it is in a league above and isn't designed for such a demographic in the first place).

Probably not a good idea to put it on the Sci-Fi Channel then.

Let's trying airing it on CBS then. Oh...

Fortunately, I dont think this is going to happen with Caprica; it will stay "ours". It just wont be able to sustain the interest of the sci-fi geek. Their short attention-spans and obsessive natures just wont be able to handle it. And I couldn't be happier. It'll be great to have discussions in threads about Moore's work--without some trekker/comic-book guy/gamer troll barging in and ruining it--again.

Please tell me you're not so naive as to believe the "trekker/comic-book guy/gamer troll" is just going to up and disappear when Caprica airs.

Indeed, here's hoping they don't watch. Perhaps then the show will pull down more in the ratings than BSG. Maybe even more than a 2. Because it's not like they in any way added to those ratings.

That way, the smart and savvy entertainment consumers will be able to enjoy all three episodes before the show is canceled.
