Shop For Caprica

The producers of this show specifically say that they want the show to appeal more to women, so they took out the action fighting scenes and put in more drama. Okay, I really like the story line of Battlestar Gallactica, so not a problem. But the club scene? How exactly is that going to attract women? Lots of topless women; Group sex; drugs; virgin sacrifices; Pornography at its best.
If the producers had enough guts to actually rate this movie, it would be NC-17. But they also admit that this was not the version they showed on TV, so why not release two version. One of this NR / NC-17 and one for TV viewing.
If this is the tone of the series, I will not watch it unless I can obtain a modified / cleaned up version. The storyline may be good, but I am not going to sit through an NC-17 TV show, nor expose my family to it.
Note to Battlestar Gallactica producers - the main reason why Battlestar Gallactica was a success is that it required thinking. Your target audience, Sci-Fi geeks (men and women) like a show that have intelligence; shows that have more than a single episode story line; shows that have a puzzle to solve -- not just a "who shot JR"? Yes, it makes it more difficult for people to flip to the show and get into the show without getting lost, but it also makes the show worth watching. That is HuLu and Amazon downloads are for.
Tone down the Male Teenage stuff or at least provide two release (one targeted towards adults and one targeted towards teenage boys). Get more detail about Caprica.
