My thoughts on episode one
Pro’s
I like Starbuck , hopefully she can fly a viper with her tits on fire , to match her arogance.
Vipers , nice and sleek , the designers did the old girl proud.
Adama , what I expect a ships captain to be , I would almost say that JMS had a hand in this guys role/Persona , gonna have to see what he is like around nukes.
Homage , as others said so far about memorabilia from the old show , but what I loved the most is the flyby of the vipers and the old music starts a playin 
Overall feel of the show is that its an adult show now , rather than when I was a kid ,and the oohs and ahhs of the original vipers , starbuck flirting , etc.
Dropping the egyptian stuff , real distances/ megatonnage .
Cons
Umm this one is sort of harder cause its half story related , half character plots.
Fembot , if she is one. I think she is a cloned human that has memorys downloaded , rather than a cyborg
I really have mixed feelings cause I dont think that so far she added anything to the story line , except for maybe a fith coloumm fear , they are everywhere , trust no one.
No networks on the galactica , CIC looks like its an american Aircraft carrier out of the sixities ,with grease markers and rulers , cause the cylons are exceptionally good at cyber warfare.
That one bothers me ,cause while I can understand the reasoning , you just don’t give up tools , you improve them, or keep the grease pens in a drawer just in case.
The reaction times of close in defenses against incoming missiles alone ,demands lots of networked computers , while the cylon was only able to fire off 3 missiles , in real life , you want to surge the battlespace with lots and lots and lots of vampires , drones , decoys etc.
Did not like the next generation of cylon warrior , those things looked evil , which may have been the point, but its kind of odd for a computer based cyborg race , to adopt a human type meme on storm troopers, who knows {shrug}
Do All Crew Chief.
This guy was all over the place , but what bothered me ,was that for all the shows attempt to show a credible military force , this guy was supposedly in charge of DC or damage control. While during a major plot element he was conferring with another officer , there did not seem to be the idea that the Exec would delegate to a commisioned officer ,who would then order the chief to do what needed to be done, it seemed like there was a disconnect there.
That idiot president , but have to wait till later on to see what exactly she brings to the table , so this one could go yay or nay.
Damm , if a teddy bear gets snuffed tonight , I am gonna go looking for JMS in the credits
