Here is the thing for me.....I see the point of trying to make things grittier, realistic, shades of gray. But for me, I prefer it to be pretty cut and dry. Because to me entertainment is an escape. That is why I love TOS BG because Apollo was the kind of hero I could count on and believe in. I didn't have to worry about his "dark" side. In real life that is very rarely true, which is sad but realistic. I wanted to be drawn away from all the things in life which are difficult and painful and even unthinkable. Give me Apollo and Luke Skywalker any day of the week and they can be shown in difficult situations that seem real and can be dramatic but I knew I could count on them! Now, I realize this is old school(and I am), and out of date, and in the past, well so be it. I don't think I am the only one!
