Is this a joke? Are you seriously not aware that Sci-Fi channel has been showing a remake of the show since 2004 (it ended this year)? I'm picking up absolutely no sarcasm in your post, and it bothers me.

There was that weird sequel with the kid and the old man running the ship from overly tall chairs but I found the kid to be exceptionally annoying so I didn't watch that one much.

He however, still won't concede defeat. He insists that the star trek thing is nerdier and that the results of the poll do not change that fact. I still feel vindicated though.

Ha! Thank you all for your votes so far.

I asked my husband today who his favorite star trek captain was, and he wouldn't even answer because he thought it was so nerdy.... despite the fact that he's seen every star trek episode and movie ever made! I said that his BSG behavior online was much nerdier.

He however, still won't concede defeat. He insists that the star trek thing is nerdier and that the results of the poll do not change that fact. I still feel vindicated though.

Maybe he should post a poll where ever it is that he posts the BSG analysis. But you've effectively asked 165 people nerdy/geeky enough to be posting in the OT section of a tech forum which is nerdier, and it's 88% to 12%...
