One of the problems with having a young character such as Boxey on the show is that while the actor ages in real-time, the re-imagined series has progressed much more slowly - the series has only covered about three months in fictional time from the mini-series (2003) to the middle of season 2 (2005).

Notes

Boxey is a based on a character of the same name from the Original Series. He shares some simmilarities with his TOS counterpart, in that he is a young boy orphaned by the Cylon Attack who is adopted by members of Galactica's crew. While Boxey was an often recurring character in the Original Series and the main character of the follow up series, Galactica 1980, in the re-imagined series, he has only appeared in one episode of the first season, "Bastille Day". A number of other appearances were filmed, but they were cut from other episodes due to time considerations, and the character now appears to have been abandoned.

One of the problems with having a young character such as Boxey on the show is that while the actor ages in real-time, the re-imagined series has progressed much more slowly - the series has only covered about three months in fictional time from the mini-series (2003) to the middle of season 2 (2005).
