That sounds like a writer's pitch: "Yeah, Mr. DeMille, it's'Star Trek' meets 'Battlestar Galactica'".

Definitely a pitch, but intriguing nonetheless. There are so many ways that could be interpreted, but I like the character enough to be interested.

Claiming to be a spiritual descendant of two established TV shows that have rabid followings but completely different styles, strengths, and weaknesses is rather suspect in my books. It will have to earn those comparisons, and I don't think it's very likely.
