The rest of the series featured several "Brady Bunch" stars (the delightfully-bad Robert Reed, and Robbie Rist), the always-good-even-in-bad-garbage Richard Lynch

Oh, but you left out the best asset to the cast: the very dishy Robyn Douglass as Jamie Hamilton. She was very easy on the eyes!
True, the format was basically killed by it's "family hour" timeslot, but the fact that ABC - after seeing initial ratings for the original telecast of "Galactica Discovers Earth" - hurriedly picked the show up for the new season, meaning Larson and Co. had very little time to prepare anything. It showed.
I would buy this show, mainly for completeness sake. I doubt we'd get any extras, but if Universal would dig into the archive and give us the footage that was shot for "The Day They Kidnapped Cleopatra", it'd be even sweeter (they were in the middle of filming this episode when the word came down from the network that the show was toast).
It's kind of a shame that the show didn't get a full-season pickup. One of the unfilmed scripts ("Wheel of Fire") shows us what becomes of Starbuck
after the events of "Return of Starbuck" (for the curious, do an internet search and you should be able to find the complete script online).
