Starbuck, Boomer and Colonel Tigh were cool guys. I liked Commander Adama as well. It's sad they made Tigh an alcoholic, white or not.

I think I must've been around 8 years old when I first saw Battlestar Galactica. The special effects, the space battles and the Cylons were so exciting. It took me a while to pay attention to the fact that the Cylons actually looked as if they had a guy wearing all black track pants with a robot costume on top inside, which was practically the case. The way they walked wasn't always very robotic.

The reboot was much darker. The original had stuff for kids like Muffy the Daggit who was played by a chimp called Evie.
