I can only see the evil Apollo thing as a good thing. It seems like it would have been Hatch's best acting opportunity in the BG world. Look what happened to that Borgie Blondie when she came into Voyager. Her slow transformation from alien machine to human would have been much like Apollo's...and she ended up taking over that entire show, stealing the thunder from the other characters who were there earlier.

The general viewing audience never bonded with Apollo because he was a much less interesting (even bland) counterpoint to Starbuck. Ironically, DeSanto's idea to turn Apollo into a Cylon would have led to a much more human Apollo than we ever saw in the original.
