I mean it's a weekly show, so it has a lot of the same flaws as a show like Lost. Too much time on romance, character's often acting pretty stupidly in order to keep the script moving, a lot of details very vaguely glossed over, like if the cylons can plug wires into their arms how is it so hard to tell who's a cylon? Sorry I don't know how to do the spoiler hider and that's not really a spoiler. None of the characters are completely unsucky. Starbuck is badass but acts like a woman way too much. Adama is pretty mean but one episode he is supermoral and the next he is a total fascist. Apollo is a dork. Helo is a tool. Prof Boltar is completely unfeasible. The president, though, is a bigtime MILF.
But the plot is good and the graphics are fantastic. The show seems way higher-budget than any other weekly program. Wait until you see Apollo's fatsuit. But "Occupation, part 2" will blow your mind. It's incredible.
