SteveW, I liked it too. I mean, I was 12 at the time so I guess I fit in with the kid target market but I liked the show.
I was dissapointed that Starbuck and Apollo were gone but many of the rest were still there and we did get another Starbuck episode out of it.
The Cycles were cool and I liked the pursuit of Xavier.
But what's amazing is the fact that in Galactica 1980 Larson already used the human Cylon trick, many fans may not be aware or remember:
The Night the Cylons Landed (Part1)
Writer: Glen A. Larson
Director: Sigmund Neufeld Jr.
The Cylon Empire has created a new version of the Cylons, a humanoid android. On Halloween, one of these new models, Andromus, crashlands near New York City with a regular Cylon. The two seek a radio station where they can contact the rest of the Cylon fleet, while Troy and Dillon try to stop them as well as save a child trapped in a fire. (Original Airdate: April 13, 1980)
