I was going to wait til we got closer but Ron Moores interview blew the cover:
http://featuresblogs.chicagotribune.com...inment_tv/2007/01/something_profo.html
Moore say that a ?profound? event involving Starbuck does occur a pivotal Season 3 episode called ?Maelstrom? that is scheduled to air March 4. In fact, Moore says it ?will be one of the most surprising things that?s happened in the history of the show so far.?
What happens to Thrace ?will jump out and grab you,? Moore says.
The producers confirmed what the actress who plays Starbuck said in a recent interview -- that as of that March 4 episode, she had completed her work on the show?s third season, even though three more episodes air after ?Maelstrom.?
So the actress finished her work on the season early and something major and surprising happens in the last episode that Sackhoff filmed. But Eick and Moore don?t want to use the word ?death? when describing what happens to Starbuck in ?Maelstrom.?
?I think people will have to watch that episode and judge for themselves what happens,? Moore says. ?I can say that Galactica will suffer a shocking loss in that episode and Kara is a key member of the crew.?
Just to add fuel to the fire of ?Galactica? bloggers, Moore adds that after the March 4 episode airs, the name of a major cast member will disappear from the show?s opening credits. They won?t say whether Sackhoff?s name is the one that goes missing. But they do make clear that what happens to Starbuck points the way to a major shift in the show?s direction.
?It?s a fundamental and permanent change in the makeup of the show?s cast and of the show itself and how the show operates and what the show is about. It?s a very dramatic change of direction,? Moore says.
?What we?re doing with Kara Thrace is profound and is major, and yet it doesn?t necessarily translate as simply as you might think,? Eick says.
And here's a pic to whet the appetite:

looks like D'anna will be getting good look at the last 5 models.
If you haven't heard Lucy Lawless is leaving the show. Unknown why, some say its a money thing. However, since you can't really kill a Cylon because they get re-incarnated it appears the Cylons will eliminate her model, boxed they call it.
So I am guessing we won't see Starbuck almost at all in the last three episodes. I wonder if its because they don't know if she wants to come back next year and they are making plans to write her off, or turn her into an occasional guest star?
It would be interesting if she goes off alone and finds earth. Then has to decide whether to go back and tell the fleet.
