			=== Dirk Benedict on ''1980'' ===
			[[Dirk Benedict]] declined to return as a series regular for the ''[[Galactica 1980]]'' spin-off, stating that he found the new concept "very cheap" and not something he wanted to be a part of.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|244-245}}</ref>

			However, he did return for the final episode, "[[The Return of Starbuck]]." The episode, written by [[Glen A. Larson]], is considered by many involved with the production to be the only worthwhile installment of the series.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|267}}</ref> Framed as a dream that [[Dr. Zee]] is having, the story chronicles [[Starbuck (1980)\|Starbuck's fate]] after he is stranded on a [[Planet Starbuck\|desolate planet]]. Desperate for companionship, he [[Cyrus (Cylon)\|reprograms a damaged Cylon]], teaches him to play [[Pyramid (TOS)\|pyramid]], and the two form an unlikely friendship reminiscent of the film ''[[w:Enemy_Mine\|Enemy Mine]]''.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|269}}</ref> The story takes a mystical turn, revealing that Starbuck is Dr. Zee's father.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|267}}</ref>
