While I don't consider myself a "fan" of the mini-, I did watch and enjoy it. Based on that, I'll throw out what I liked from TOS (well, what I remember I liked from TOS. I was 10 or 12 at the time and a LOT has happened since then.)
The hardware--I loved the ships and the firearms. I remember trying to make Colonial pistols from Legos when I was a kid. The Galactica model was basically one giant kitbashed construct, and I had lots of fun identifying parts of models I had built on her. I wanted that ship (The one in the series, not a kit to build on my own) BAD.
Lorne Greene--I was worried about how he'd do in a sci-fi series 'cause I absoutly HATED Bonanza. He calmed my fears in the first 5 minutes of TOS pilot. 'Nuff said.
Favorite episode--The one with the old navigation bubble where they were picking up transmissions from the first moon landing.
