Always liked the original show and especially his Apollo character. :'(

F**k. I must have been 10 when I watched Battlestar Galactica on TV.
His wife Serina probably was my first crush (before she became Dr Quinn).

He was on the reimagined series as well, as Tom Zarek: inmate-turned-Quorum representative.
He did a great job as Zarek.
I liked him better as Zarek than Apollo.

I was in elementary when the original BSG was on and still like it. But think about the character Richard played in that version. In fact, he liked that role/series so much, he did a pilot episode in the late 90's to try and bring it back, playing the same character. But the character that he played in the SyFy version was so much a polar opposite of this Apollo character. Watching him embrace both that role and the totally reimaged version was great. Add in that Zarek was a lot more complicated character than Apollo ever was, and that's why I like him as Zarek better.
I loved the original BSG as a kid, but it was crap. Hell, I loved CHIPS when I was 8 yrs old.
It was cool that Richard Hatch got to play Zarek in the BSG reboot. He did an excellent job with the role.
