The real question I want answered is, what do they hope to gain by this, and is the cost in negative PR worth the potential gain?
Regarding Star Trek TV series, TOS and TNG are all I cared for. Actors are what matter most, and those guys had charisma. Everything following was either painfully politically correct and forced, or just downright bad (like Enterprise, which killed the series... country theme music, what were they thinking?!?!).
Now BSG, *THAT* was a good sci-fi, but for whatever reason it didn't develop the religion around it like Star Trek and Star Wars, despite being so many magnitudes better.
