        This picture was taken in early 2003 .But then Dirk a couple of months later saw the pilot and blasted a female Starbuck and the new show and everyone involved in an article that he wrote and that was the end of the smiles thats why you never saw him even in a cameo in the new Battlestar.I believe I saw it in Sci Fi Channel Magazine 9 years ago God has it been that Long?

        Heres the article called Starbuck Lost in Castration I still Love it!

          Dude looks terrific on top of being a cancer survivor as well. Kind of sad that most of The A-Team has/had cancer.

          Him and Murdock still have great chemistry together.

              That is pretty funny. And you know I don't blame him about the new Battlestar Galactica. The new Hawaii 5-0 did the same thing w/ Kono. And all these remakes (in my opinion) are jokes. All the cool shows they're reworking, Charlie's Angels, Bionic Woman, Wonder Woman, Battlestar Galactica, etc. ; the originals were like lighting in a bottle. No one is ever going to recapture that magic, originality and ingenuity again.

                  I mentioned this before, I met him in the mid 90's

                  He's probably the nicest celeb I ever met

                  We talked for like a half hour (nobody was in his line)

                  Funny thing is, we mostly talked about stupid stuff instead of his movies --- everything from gardening to why he likes the East Coast.

                  He really is a regular guy in real life

                        That is exactly one of the main reasonings as to why I no longer watch much TV at all.

                          I dunno, I prefer new Galactica over the old one. The original is pretty dated and mostly weak storywise.

                            I always thought she hit several branches on the way down the ugly tree...She is no Marin Jensen (or even Anne Lockhart for that matter)

                            Hec we're all the same age range here 40-50 and we look at the hero of our youth in his mid 60's after the big C nad he is still in good shape and youthful we should all be so lucky to go through all that an look that good

                              I don't know why people around here don't like the new Battlestar. I like both a lot, but I was glued to my tv when the new ones where on! It was so good! Nobody was safe! The story telling was above and beyond what could be expected and it had a terrific cast. Is it because the tone of the show was so different?

                              I also love the female Starbuck. She's a great character. She borrowed elements from Dirk and then eventually made it her own. I plan on naming my daughter Kara after her (and Supergirl).

                              edit: Not judging anyone for not liking the show, obviously people are entitled to like or not like as they see fit.
