Default Some reasons why people hate the mini

to be honest... alot of the anger against the mini has been insurmountable.

Alot of that has been due to SciFi channels PR department. Their repititious statements in public about the old series having been hopelessly flawed has stoked anger against them. Their total disrepect for the original series. And the constant bitter atttacks by fanatical miniseries fans of the mini who threatened people with lawsuits, and created false fbi men and fake senators to harass "old school" fans etc, created an environment where people begane to form an absolutely INTENSE hate of the mini.


And while these fans may not have been able to form any sort of physical protest in any large numbers....they told their friends, work colleagues and total strangers about how bad the new mini was. Everytime the scifi commercials created interest about the mini, there was a "old school" fan there to join in the conversation and "educate them."

Alot of the anger against the mini was Scifi, Moore's, and Bonnies direct fault. Its gone beyond story. Beyond love of an old tv show. People HATE now.
