    Original Galactica: Somehow makes TOS feel mature and grounded.

    Reimagined Galactica: The original grimdark reboot. It’s one of the few works that did “grimdark reboot” well because at the time “it had the virtue of having never been tried.”

    This is what Ronald D. Moore did in response to being replaced on Star Trek Voyager for trying to make it the exact same kind of show but was told to make it light-hearted and episodic like TOS or walk. So he walked.

    Fuck you, Rick Berman.
