Most of the Saga of Star World episode was kept in, in altered form. There are analogies to most of the key points of the original. It almost seems like a Marvel Ultimates retelling of the same story.That said, my only real gripe is that it is a remake rather than a sequel. Considering the museum pieces they had of classic centurions and basestars, it would have made sense to me to have it set a few generations after the original. Earth could have been destroyed instead of letting Caprica get it again. Flight names could have been taken in honour of the former holders. The Cylons made by humans (instead of by "true" cylons) could have explained away with some hidden text found on Earth after the colonial landing, still making humanity responsible. Plus, the surviving Earthlings could have a real beef with the Colonials for bringing the Cylons there. Wouldn't have taken that much of a rewrite, IMO.</blockquote>
