Also, your point about "Adama having too much screen time at the beginning" makes little sense to me since Adama has no screen time at the beginning. He simply shows up during the course of his normal duties and there is nothing out of character for him to be on the bridge conferring with his executive officer about a fuel shortage situation.

It wasn't so much that he didn't have many characteristics, but rather that the actor didn't convince of those characteristics. Also, maybe it wasn't quite at the beggining, but when Adama met Cain it seemed a bit too strung-out.
