2. You use a term that has been given a bit more expletive meaning in the new series to describe how you think original series fans are supposedly being treated by Dynamite....a term that has origins in the 1978 series, albeit with supposedly less profane intent.
Ironic?  |
1. DUH!!! In the final issue of Dynamite's Galactica:1980 adaptation Adama is Bill Adama and Baltar is Gaius Baltar. The Colonials NEVER HAD FIRST NAMES IN THE ORIGINAL SERIES! The actual translation of their names from Aramaic would be Bill son of Adama. Not Bill Adama. Giving them first names and using re-imagined series references should be kept out of original BSG Canon because they ARE NOT TAKING PLACE IN THE SAME UNIVERSE. Adding the re-imagined series references is not attracting their fans bacause to them the original series is a glorified cartoon. 2. Glen Larson using Frack was his way of getting past the TV Networks Standards and Practices as well as the 8:00 p.m. timeslot regulations. If he had used his original Frak spelling Standards and Practices would not have allowed him to use that word on television.
