|-
| Unknown     || [[Saga of a Star World (early draft)]] || [[Glen A. Larson]]      || An early version of [[Saga of a Star World]] with numerous differences: Skyler is the early name for [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]]; [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]] is much younger; Lyra is the early name for [[Serina]]; and there is no [[Cassiopeia]].
|-
| #85274      || [[The Beta Pirates]]              || [[Leslie Stevens]]           || [[Athena (TOS)|Athena]], [[Boxey (TOS)|Boxey]] and [[Muffit II|Muffit]] are captured, sold at a slave auction, end up in a [[Cylon (TOS)|Cylon]] prison -- only to be rescued by [[Skyler]] ([[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]]'s original name), [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]] and a pirate with a "heart of gold".
|-
| Unknown     || [[The Nari of Sentinel 27]]/[[Crossfire]] || [[John Ireland]]      || An early version of [[Gun on Ice Planet Zero]] with many changes of note, among with the [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylons]] are reptilian, the [[Theta]]s are called "Nari" (which connections to [[Earth (TOS)|Earth]] herself!), and [[Serina]] is featured in the episode as "[[Lyra]]". This version does not contain the convicts, [[Vulpa]], or Dr. [[Ravashol]].
|- 
| Unknown     || [[Fire in Space (script)|Fire in Space]]        || [[Michael Sloan]]           || The script that "[[Fire in Space]]" is based on. However, there are several major differences; Starbuck, Apollo, and [[Boomer (TOS)|Boomer]] are undercover in a bar attempting to find information on the Cylon pursuit; the Cylons have a plan to attack and ram ''[[Galactica (TOS)|Galactica]]'' called "The Delta Factor". During this, Starbuck is convicted of killing the husband of a woman he meets, Apollo is forced to seek out laser power packs for Adama's surgery, Starbuck uses his [[Viper (TOS)|Viper]] to extinguish a blaze, and Boxey, who just happens to witness the murder Starbuck is falsely charged with doing, is targeted by the real killer himself, but is saved (in a timely fashion) by Apollo. Coincidentally, this is the script that results in Sloan getting a story-by credit on "[[Murder on the Rising Star]]", since this has the murder plot in it.

Meanwhile, Starbuck, Athena, [[Deitra]], Apollo and Boxey discover a millennium's old battleship that could be from Earth.
|-
| #50914      || [[The Mutiny]]                     || [[Guy Magar]]               || After coming across the hospitable planet [[Zarta]], the [[Quorum of Twelve (TOS)|Quorum of Twelve]], in its infinite wisdom and tired of the journey, has decided that the Fleet and its members shall settle the planet. [[Baltar (TOS)|Baltar]] and [[Lucifer]] come along and place a fire underneath the Colonials' [[astrum]]s.

|- 
| #50923      || [[Two For Twilly]]                 || [[Jim Carlson]] and [[Terrence McDonnell]] || Starbuck and Apollo's friend, Chief [[Twilly]], the only gyro specialist on ''Galactica'' juggles two wives: [[Zeena]] and [[Gayla]].

Larson]]          || A script that was slated for the Original Series' second season, according to [[Richard Hatch]] and [[Stu Phillips]].
