Huzzah!
According to this "TV Week" interview with BSG developer and executive producer Ron Moore:
TVWeek: Katee Sackhoff (who plays Starbuck) made it sound in media interviews as if she's off the show and getting new jobs. Was that part of the ruse?
Mr. Moore: We were trying to walk a very fine line. She was very careful how she phrased it. We wanted people to feel the loss. We didn't want to put Katee in the position of lying to people. She did look for other work and is getting other work -- just other work that won't interfere with her Battlestar commitments.
Thanks saudade_kaiho!
