As someone noted, there probably has never been the kind of mania of hatred towards a new series, based on an older version, in television or even movie history as we see between fans of the old series and those of the new one.

The vitriol, nipicking and depths that this has gone to across the internet has been stunning . . . .

And that's with Richard Hatch, an earlier leader of the anti-new-BSG movement, on board and a principle character in the new series.
