I think when you aim that stuff specifically at young people to attarct them in, I would agree. There's a marked difference though in the way sex and violence is aimed at somebody of my age because I'm not addicted to sex and violence, and I demand a good reason for its inclusion. In NuBSG it is always properly justified.
Perhaps Singer will find a pretty woman to play the prostitute in order to be true to the original moral tone of old BSG!!!
Seriously, you can't classify all sex on TV as "filth" - because sex is healthy when practiced in loving respectful relationships of whatever duration. Without it we don't have our families. Whenever casual sex is shown in NuBSG, we, the audience, get to decide if the act is well-advised or not. Besides, there are plenty of family-friendly movies out there, high-toned morality won't play out for the likely target audience of a big sci-fi action movie.

Yes, there was a prostitute on the original BSG, but how many scenes did you see with her in the sack with anyone? There is a difference in having someone who is a prostitute on a tv show and having her sleep with half or more of the crew on screen. Cassiopea was ashamed of her profession and gave it up to become a nurse after the first episode if i remember correctly. The prostitute profession was not portrayed as something that was okay to engage in like many shows these days seem to make it look like.
