Starbuck and Boomer became women in the “gritty” “realistic” PC version. And Boomer was a Cylon. And the Cylons looked like humans because they didn’t have the budget for a robot suit.

Ill have to follow her now. The galactic show she was in is one of the best sci fi tv shows ever. Her character was quite good. If anyone digs sci fi and hasn’t watched this show you need too. It’s on Netflix.

Watched the original series as a kid decades ago. Watched two or three episodes of the new series on Netflix, but couldn't go for it. I found her character particularly annoying.

You forgot Commander Cain who also became a woman (Admiral Helena Cain).

Ron Moore finally confessed he turned Starbuck into a woman for the publicity. The crew also admitted the only reason the "gritty" "realistic" PC re-imagined version was titled Battlestar Galactica was they wanted the name for marketing purposes.
