No one is saying PC is good, but you are justifying an opinion based on secondary information that doesn't quite square with the primary source for those who actually watched the thing.

I don't buy into the classical explainations for the efficacy of Chinese medicine either, but that doesn't mean I refuse to give credit to its benefits and make use of it.

Well now you have just managed to confuse the heck out of me, not that it takes much. My opinions are based on a pretty good source, the main outlet for Moore and Co. And since neither you nor I are capable of going back to Pre-Battlestar release days, what Moore says now is irrelevent, so we must rely on second hand knowledge as most of us do day to day.

People who watch the program for the first time have no Idea if it's PC or not. While some of the scenes may hint at it, I understand nothing is blatant PC, but I am not talking about watching, I am talking about knowing that Moore thinks the original series was sexist and then changing some of the main characters genders to fit that ideal.

I still say it's like the Libs tried to do to the original 9/11 flag raising men. You can't change facts, and fact is Starbuck was a Man not a Woman. If he wanted to do a good epic then he should have made this version a future to the original version. Not try to convince us that Starbuck somehow changed into a Woman overnight.
