Lisa Fary's earliest influences are Princess Leia, Rainbow Bright, Astronaut Barbie, and her 6th grade teacher, Ms. Palmer. She's angry that it's 2011 and she still doesn't have a hovercraft, but will accept a jetpack as consolation. That jetpack had better be pink with a rhinestone monogram. 8 Comments

Starbuck dies? Damn you US types and your plot-spoilers! We poor old Brit-types have only just seen her and Apollo going 13 rounds with each other (no, not like that – in the boxing ring!) It’ll be sad to see her go, I agree, but maybe Katee Sackhoff just wanted off the series.
Ah well … if she ever wants back in, maybe DC or Marvel will be able to show the series’ producers how to continually resurrect a character (without making them a cylon!)
Sorry!!! The episode already aired here, so I thought it was OK!!!!!
I would like to see her come back in a reasonable way. . . Katee Sackoff doesn’t have much going on right now other than White Noise 2. I can’t see starring in the sequel to a really bad movie as a special destiny.
I’ve only just started watching Battle Star Galactica so when I saw a main character die last night it really made me question whether I should continue watching the show or not.
So..do we know for sure she’s even coming back?
It’s all speculation. Did you start at the beginning of the series or pick up where it is now? If you’re starting at the beginning, I’d suggest sticking with it for a while, because it really is good, even though I complain a lot.
I agree with your analysis completely. They didn’t add anything to the mythos or ongoing storyline. It was a cop out. The one thing we always heard was Starbuck got the job done when it counted and hear it didn’t. It’s nice to move on from Appolo-starbuck but this is a letdown. Probably the low point for the series.
Are we really even reasonably sure she died in the first place? She was chasing a Raider, which may or may not have been real, and she did seem to have her hand on the ejection handle – and even if Lee didn’t see any sign of ejection, he was flying blind at that point anyway.
No thanks. I’m going to wave the No-Body-Clause here. We know Kat died because we were literally at her bedside, but its not so simple with Starbuck. I personally think the Cylons picked her up, pushing her closer to the vague notion of destiny all the while leading to a confrontation between her and Lee at the season’s end.
Sackoff said in an interview yesterday that as far as she knows, Starbuck didn’t eject and is dead. She also said she’s shooting a major pilot for NBC, but can’t say what it is.
She will be back! She has gone a long way to stop now! I hope it made me cry some, guess im a girl! They use cancer alot in this show! True in any age!
