   Irrelvant to whether or not it fits with what has already been   
   established, whether or not it's really part of the existing franchise,   
   ... Making money or being popular has absolutely nothing to do with   
   quality nor does it automatically mean something fits with what has come   
   before. Neither does simply having "Star Trek" in the title actually mean   
   it's part of the real "Star Trek" franchise (calling it "Star Trek Barney"   
   doesn't suddenly mean the "Barney" shows are part of the "Star Trek"   
   franchise).   
      
   Of course, most people are apparently too dumb to understand that names   
   actually mean something. They blindly believe that if it says "Batllestar   
   Galactica" on the tin, then it must be "Battlestar Galactica", even when   
   the people making it are telling them it's really completely different.
