As negatively as all this has been received, If I were made to bet, I'd say this change will be a non-issue within the year. I just don't see the mark alienating current fans, nor do I see it bringing new viewers into the fold. It's all about programming. If the shows are good, people will tune in. If they had anything even close to the early episodes of Battlestar... I know I'd be watching.
