We come in peace ... and we has a fashun.

BTW - I recognised a song by Muse from the V trailer I saw on line. It would make a good tea party anthem. Here are the Lyrics. They are good but the song kicks keister. Check it out.
"Uprising"
Paranoia is in bloom,
The PR transmissions will resume
They'll try to push drugs that keep us all dumbed down
And hope that we will never see the truth around
(So come on)
Another promise, another seed
Another packaged lie to keep us trapped in greed
And all the green belts wrapped around our minds
And endless red tape to keep the truth confined
(So come on)
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
So come on
Interchanging mind control
Come let the revolution takes its toll
If you could flick the switch and open your third eye
You'd see that we should never be afraid to die
(So come on)
Rise up and take the power back
It's time the fat cats had a heart attack
They know that their time's coming to an end
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend
(So come on)
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
So come on
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
So come on
I TOLD you at some point, the media would (at first in small increments) start turning on little obama....
As JJ noted, your point is well-stated and perfectly plausible, especially if you factor in that the (demoted, fired) creator Scott Peters stated explicitly way back when planning began on the show that his aim was to remain true to the spirit of the original series.
However, there is a larger issue here - the ABC network's comical, but also curiously suspicious reaction(over-reaction /g) and actions towards the show. To halt production and replace the creator who produced what turned out to be a top-rated network premier even before it aired, and order the series "retooled" and start playing fast and loose with the scheduling, well, that should cause all but the most determinedly "incurious" people to wonder... /g
Of course it's a ripoff.
When last have you seen a single thing with any semblance of originality come from the Hollyweird brainstems, steph?
Banality's a sign of our times the result of mass Liberal-Socialism's dumbing down entire generations. The mass narcissism *and* sociophathic behavior(s) so prevalent, on *display* today are merely two other facets of the same monster.
We are, in deeper kimchee than we most even know.
The repercussions of the sabotage are the stuff of nightmares.
I don't wonder at all. "Wondering" implies it is in question.

The NEA ids winning the “dumbing down” and propaganda war, Bush/Kennedy merely added gasoline to the fire.
Speaking of nightmares, I had 2 last night. (Musta been because I had vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup right before bedtime. ;-)
BTW: I didn’t trust that leader from the moment I saw her. Just like Barry.
What made you distrust her?
The Hawaiian birth certificate?
If I remember correctly, in the original series, the aliens melted like slugs in saltwater......mmmm...mmmm....mmmm, anbody got any ideas how to kill this beast?
I wonder what would happen if Hollywood turned out "The Assassination of a President" with Obama instead of Bush? More lectures on "free speech" and the evils of censorship? Prolly not.
Not surprising -- both Catholics, right?
This link, particularly, is educational, more so since I have no opportunity to watch HBO.

"And that’s the problem with ObamaMania. The Dems threw Hillary Clinton under the bus because many of them didn’t like her baggage, yet these same people, who screamed bloody murder about President Bush’s missing National Guard records, didn’t even blink at the fact that Obama has locked away so many things in his past and denied his associations with America-hating radicals. Yet his cabinet is full of those very same kind of people. Which brings us to the two most hilarious statements Obama made in the campaign, which were repeated in the film:
“People are tired of fear, distractions and diversions.” and “They (the people) don’t deserve four more years of failed economic policies.”
I suspect you're thinking of 'Alien Nation,' but hey, we can give it a try anyway...
When it comes back, it will be a reality show filmed in the white house and the US will be a socialist paradise.
That middle image is what popped into my mind when Mrs Obama's appeared.
There are many "erudite" but circumscribed minds who have absolutely convinced the intellectually insecure that any references, allusion and historical comparisons with Fascism and Totalitarianism are forbidden, or are the crutches used by the uneducated and the historical inaware.
Not always.

Strange, the explanation of "taste." I prefer the short hair.
She was a "heavy" in Stargate: SG1 and it was really difficult to hate the eye candy.
