Dear Sci-fi channel

My sincere apologies for interrupting the lonely quest for the 13th colony...a planet known as..Earth, but I have some concerns regarding the portrayal of our efforts in the latest TV series.

As a rag tag fugitive fleet on a mission to save the human race from Baltar and his Cylon bootboys we expect a certain element of misrepresentation from the 6.5 billion humans whose memory we battle to save. But the latest show, is a farce.

Firstly, Lieutenant Starbuck is not female, but a red blooded and somewhat predictable womaniser, who certainly does not condone women in the workplace. Please sack the lovely Katee Sackoff and bring back Face from the A-Team. Alternatively, we would be happy with either David Jason or Jimmy Nail cast in this role.

Secondly, a Cylon in human form is simply out of the question. When we took the decision to jump into any space vessels we could find and boldly retreat from the enemy it was on the understanding that our pursuers were lacking dexterity, and easily identifiable with their shiny armour, Barry White voices, and generally surly demeanour.

I and the other Galacticans are less than impressed.

I read with interest your account of the new "Battlestar Galactica". Since the original "historical documents" I enjoyed so much had no background, with no time spent discussing the history and culture of the Colonies, I wonder if you could provide me with more information? Tantalizing demographics intrigue me, such as the impact that the normal Colonial lifespan of 200 yahren had on people, institutions such as marriage, jobs, and birthrates. Having more to lose if they died, were the people more cautious? In spite of your alien culture, why do the Colonials appear to be transplanted 1970s Americans? The major background mysteries of your culture have until this time appeared to be beyond solution to me, but I hope you are able to explain at least the minor ones to me.
