When I said it's not a bad thing, it's just a thing of that age of scifi. Many scifi shows from that period were the same, much like scifi from the 40's and 50's and 60's were all very much the same and it took Star Trek and Star Wars to really shake up the genre.

Just like Babylon 5, Firefly, DS9, and the new BSG really shook up scifi today.

But bonnie hammer at scifi can be blamed for turning a lot of scifi into crap. Last press kit from BSG indicated that RDM and Eick were told to make BSG "more episodic". That's a nice way of saying..

"We feel the audience is stupid so make the show stupider so ratings go up."
