Actually it's more along the lines of not watching it because of PC gone amuck. Anytime a show replaces key players in order to be PC it's garbage in my book. No different then the Libs trying to change the color of the firemen who raised the 9/11 flag.

Kids watching this show, and it's primary target is the teen demographic, will come away with a strong message that in some battles there's no negotiation, no appeasement, and the goal is something as simple as survival.

Nothing liberal about that.

the new actors don't detract from the show in the slightest. Indeed they force you to take the show on its own merits instead of a tired "been there done that" remake.

Some folks are bound to hate it, some folks will like it. Not much point in arguing back and forth. I think its quite good myself.

This show reminds me of "V", the TV series from approx. 1984, where Earth fights the aliens who take on human appearance.

I agree. Not only that, what would be the point of doing a remake that's EXACTLY like the original? If that's what you want just SHOW/WATCH the original. Those of us who like new takes on an old theme (open mindedness) will give it a chance.
