Life could be this beautiful without NBC-TV in it.

As Ronald D. Moore and David Eick have proven, any MORON with ZERO IMAGINATION can break into the television industry and end up putting CRAP onto our television screens. Rest assured, the vast majority of BAD PRODUCERS in the television industry always end up working for the Sci-Fi Channel, and end up calling it "Home." At this late date, when the "Official Publicity" for Ronald D. Moore's production should have ended; it is still going strong and trying to cover up the VERY POOR JOB Ronald D. Moore and David Eick are doing as producers.
We live in a new era now, where the LACK OF TALENT exhibited by today's television producers is GLOSSED OVER by marketing machines and publicity campaigns that DON'T KNOW WHEN TO QUIT. The ENDLESS SERIES OF LIES coming out of "Skiffy" regarding Ronald D. Moore's production has been STAGGERING IN ITS SCOPE. "Skiffy" has FLAT OUT LIED about the ratings performance of Moore's production, has LIED about how many episodes were ACTUALLY ORDERED for a second season (the official count is 5 episodes, NOT 20), has LIED about original series fans SUPPOSEDLY being won over by this production, and has LIED about about how the original series fans REALLY FEEL about this production.
These are all SYMPTOMS of the LACK OF TALENT currently characterizing the current crop of television producers. On the talent scale, Ronald D. Moore and David Eick are no higher than the producers of Sci-Fi Channel's "Saturday Night Movies." Ronald D. Moore and David Eick NEED all of this FALSE ADVERTISING to COVER UP their LACK OF TALENT as producers. If Moore and Eick had any sort of talent, they wouldn't need the Sci-Fi Channel's publicity machine glossing over their work on a DAILY BASIS. If you suffer from the same LACK OF TALENT that Ronald D. Moore and David Eick have, all you need is a fresh coat of paint and a glossy finish from Bonnie Hammer and her minions to HIDE THIS SAD FACT.
From the current sitcoms that aren't funny, to the current dramas that are BORING & DREARY; today's television producers are perfectly capable of technically getting their programs on the air, but are incapable of entertaining an audience with what they put on the air. In the case of Ronald D. Moore and David Eick, this was merely an exercise in EGO and SELF-GRATIFICATION for the two of them. Entertaining an audience was the farthest thing from their minds. Instead, some sort of self indulgent, acceptance from peers, and "lets try and be as brilliant as we can" schtick motivated both Moore and Eick to produce some sort of CRAP for television that the two of them hoped would be regarded as "Artsy." EGO is all over Ronald D. Moore's production, without any of the vital ingrediants necessary to entertain an audience. Ronald D. Moore's and David Eick's reputations are not helped by the fact that the only individuals entertained by this DREARY MESS are the Universal/Sci-Fi Channel executives PRETENDING to be Ron Moore's fans over the Internet.
Today's current crop of TALENTLESS TELEVISION PRODUCERS have a NEW SET OF AGENDAS that has nothing to do with entertaining a television audience. Self gratification of the EGO, SATISFYING personal and political agendas for themselves and the studios & networks they work for, and hopefully making enough episodes for a double disc DVD set that some CLUELESS MORON will have the nerve to buy in a momentary lapse of rational judgement. From the beginning, it was painfully apparent that the last thing Ronald D. Moore and David Eick were in this "gig" for was the preservation of the PROUD LEGACY of the "REAL 1978 GALACTICA SERIES", trying to build on it, or even manufacturing something that closely resembled what the "Battlestar Galactica" brand name stood for in its title. Instead, Ronald D. Moore and David Eick revealed themselves not to be television producers, but rather "Metro-Sexual Money Counters" who whipped together an endless series of television cliches in order to survive from one paycheck to the next so they could pay the mortgages on their houses. Ronald D. Moore and David Eick, like all television producers working today, whip together CLICHED TELEVISION from a drive-thru window closely adhering to the POLITICAL MANDATES layed out by whatever studio and television network they work for.
This new era we live in is CLICHED TELEVISION at its worst, where ORIGINALITY and FRESH IDEAS are as foreign to Ronald D. Moore and David Eick as is Paul McCartney foreign to the notion of actually composing a new smash hit single that would reach #1.
All of the ILLS ravaging the television industry today are incarnated in Ronald D. Moore's production. The POLITICAL MANDATES, the LACK OF IMAGINATION, the OVER RELIANCE on CLICHED FORMULAS are all EVER PRESENT in Ronald D. Moore's production. The Universal/Sci-Fi Channel executives who BLAST those who hate this series live in a PSYCHOTIC FANTASY WORLD more POTENT than the one Ronald D. Moore and David Eick encased themselves in.
Rest assured that each time Katee Sackhoff wanders around a charred battlefield that looks like a setting from "Platoon", wearing a present day and ragged military uniform, and turning herself into a HYPODERMIC JUNKIE ON CAMERA, someone's PERSONAL POLITICAL AGENDA IS BEING SATISFIED at Universal Studios, Sci-Fi Channel, or within Ronald D. Moore's production crew. Not one frame of film was shot for this production to entertain an audience. However, Universal Studios/Sci-Fi Channel's BUSINESS MANDATES are up on our television screens for all to see, incarnated and represented by Ronald D. Moore's production. This production was not designed to entertain; but rather, to keep Universal/Sci-Fi Channel executives sufficiently MASTURBATED, SATISFIED, and DRY HUMPED psychologically.
