Galactica In Name Only?

After watching the pilot episode of the original Battlestar Galactica for the first time in a few years, it struck me how confused someone who only knows the 21st century version - frequently called BSG - might be. As many have noted, though numerous characters have the same (or, at least, very similar) names, they're very different between the two programs. Most people making that observation do so to disparage the more recent version as "Galactica in name only", that's not my intention here. 

Personally, I enjoy both versions but that's a separate discussion. My mission here is simply to offer the following cheat sheet to help novices distinguish the original's key characters from those of BSG.

Adama with Better Skin
Apollo with Fewer Daddy Issues
Starbuck with Less Balls
Less attractive Boomer
Less Weasely Baltar
Sober Tigh

Honorable mention goes to Cassiopeia who, between the pilot and the regular series, was switched from being a prostitute to a medic. Had she been included in the 21st century edition, doubtless they would have kept her as a prostitute. If I had to name a true missed opportunity on the part of the makers of BSG, not incorporating her would definitely be it.
