09. Starbuck. Let us count the ways. (Single Digits Guys!)

So this is a bit self-serving, I'll say that right off the bat. I was looking for some Starbuck character meta earlier and couldn't find any. So, I figured I'd see what thinky thoughts you guys have about her. (I know they're floating around up there in that grey matter somewhere!)

According to this poll, Starbuck is the undisputed favorite with BSG fans. Or, at least, with the BSG fans who are taking my polls. (Let's disregard for a moment that I didn't say, "pick your favorite," hahaha. I think it stands to reason that most people would pick their favs when asked to choose between characters.)

For me personally, Starbuck is unequivocally my favorite fictional character of all time. Hands down. But I'm sure there are many who dislike her or are neutral towards her. So, I wanna hear about it. And why. There is absolutely no judgement here, every single opinion is welcome and wanted.

It can be from the superficial (I don't like her hair/I like her hair!) to the philosophical. I don't care. I wanna know.

1, 2, 3, GO!

I'd like to see some payoff about that destiny and apparently season four is all about it so... Yay. From my perspective, she got harder with the exploration of her character, more trapped? perhaps, by horrible events. She's sinking, or sunk, really by "Maelstrom." Her rebirth will be an interesting moment for her. How shiny is she going to be? I would hope she gets some peace of mind 'cause damn, but from the looks of the promos, and this being bsg, NOT SO MUCH.

He's pretty though. Nice boxing partner and friend to Kara.

Ah, I'm overdue for some season 3 re-watching. I saw her sudden marriage to Anders as a "cleaning up" move. Season 4 should definitely be interesting.

Hm. That's an interesting thought. She did seem to try and make an honest go of a relationship with a man who saw her for her. Taking a break as it were. Didn't last long though and caused an even further tumble. At the very least she has excellent taste in men. Apollo? Hot. Sam? HOT.

Season 4 should definitely be interesting.

INDEED.

She's a lucky lady, indeed!! All that man-candy. She's quite the hot one herself!

HOTTEST CAST EVER. ALL THE LADIES AND DUDES BRING IT. Clearly the holocaust killed only ugly people.
