That is the most annoying thing ever... even worse than K9 from Dr. Who... :) I like the twists of the old characters coming back, but who'd have thought they'd have the same person play 2 of them. The writers really do like to mess with our minds! :D Can’t say i was a big fan of the original series, i did however watch more than enough episodes to know that boxy was annoying, but not as annoying as the robot dog thing (Dagget as someone said earlier.).

Adama was father to Apollo, Athena and Zac. Her career was on the bridge of Galactica and not a fighter pilot. The fighter pilot that came from Pegasus was named Sheba. Athena is Adama’s daughter.

Again props on the Boxy memory, but from the looks of things good thing he was not a "keeper" Athena was Adama’s daughter in the original.

I can't believe how cornball this series was, it seems to be in league with the original 60's Batman series. Even the FX seem pretty crappy. I can't believe I watched it as a kid.

Mark my words he'll be back at some point, I suspect somewhere around when they find Earth - don't be too shocked if he turns out to be Lee Adama's son either ;) It wasn’t deleted scenes - he first appeared in the mini-series when Boomer (yeah, the dead one) was getting off Caprica, somebody asked him his name, and he replied “Boxy”.

Adama had only two sons, "Apollo" and the dead kid. Uh - sorry but I am pretty sure that Athena is Commander Cain’s daughter from the original series.

Adama had only two sons, “Apollo” and the dead kid.

Remember, if it's deleted... it's deleted. Ah props on the Boxy references, but I did not see the deleted scenes, and even now can’t recall the kept scenes actually identifying him as Boxy.
