• This frakuccino is great!

• OMG. This is absolutely amazing.

•  I hope this was playing in the background:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rWJmvFIIoQ

• :D FACE!!! Lookin' so good he could be in madame tussauds!

• :D FACE!!! haha - he looks so good it good be in madame tussauds

• I was only mildly into the original show as a kid and hardly at all into the new one, but you know what...That is sooo damn awesome a photo. It needed to be done. P.S. I recorded her for "American Dad" and she was incredibly friendly and gracious.

• How original to ADVERTISE on the same Starbucks do a big interview with the BBC.....Why do we allow these marketeers to influence our choices, can we not make our own?

• then this point is an even match, Katee Sackhoff fought and survived her cancer, too. And this at her early age - I think, she still trumps him, even though I like him, too.

• I can't wait for the Galactica 1980 remake. Think of what they could do with that now.

• This picture was taken when Battlestar Galactica just started. I read the article saying he was a real sexist jerk and hated that she was playing the same role he did.

• Two Starbucks in Starbucks? Triple win!

• He has a real pretty mouth too!!!

• Star What?? Dirk Who??

• Star What? Dirk Who?

• Star What? Dirk Who?

• Sweet the facemang

• Lame. She was so much deeper and better as Starbuck than he ever was. Let's compare, she was integral to holding the entire story line together, especially at the end and he was a cartoon character every episode. Sorry, she wins. That the new BSG was 20 times better than the first helped no doubt.

• if only it was in Starbuck Manitoba Canada

• Dirk Benedict is obviously Dorian Gray.

• SIXTY SIX??? If there was work done, it was either by a master hand, or so long ago that it's had a chance to blend in. He's GORGEOUS!

• This picture is really really old. it's taken from an interview before the very first series of the new BSG came out. I remember seeing it on TV.

• xzibit says "yo dog, I heard you like Starbuck..."

• We're *encouraging* them? Fracking toasters...

• Yea, that was when it started. If I remember right, she was just barely able to hide her annoyance at having to deal with his disgruntled ass.

• The real question is: Did Starbuck #ucking #uck Starbuck in the #ucking Starbucks!?

• He looks good for a 66-year-old and a cancer survivor. Go Dirk!

• the only way this picture could be cooler is if one of them was holding up a copy of 'Moby Dick'.

• This was on the "Battlestar Galactica The Miniseries" DVD, side 2. "Making-Of Featurette - Battlestar Galactica: The Lowdown." If you fast forward about 18.5 minutes into it, you will find the Starbucks meeting at Starbucks. Not a bad special feature. Interesting to see after the show is over.

• More liek "been-a-dick" amirite?

• I love how he claims credit for creating such an awesomely creative character. Even my 10 yr old self knew that he was just a Han Solo ripoff.

• This pic wins the Internet lol!!

• Love the Firefly reference!

• I do.. my friend did!

• Yeah, you can happen to find Katee Sackhoff hotter than a 60 year old dude. Though when it's Dirk Benedict it's a close race.

• Yeah, same here. This was all over the net when the Mini first came out. I have no idea why the sudden resurgence of interest. Clearly, thousands of internet nerds were lying down on the job eight years ago. (holy crap, has it been that long??)

• Love it!

• Well... ya frakkin beat me to it.

• :D

• After he started badmouthing Starbuck's sex change "operation" she said that if he showed up on the show she'd quit. Richard Hatch made out allot better riding the wave than Dirk Benedict did fighting it.

• To be quite honest,with the increased emphasis on Mormon Cosmology,didn't do the show any favours either.

• I remember seeing this in 2003 on SciFi Channel just before the miniseries premiered.

• Whatever his feelings about the new show, Dirk Benedict does get major points for being a cancer survivor (and a pretty cool guy to meet, too; my wife got to shake his hand).

• Just read the Wikipedia post. Curses. My opinion has vastly changed now to "Screw you, Dirk Benedict and your macrobiotic dietary lifestyle!"

• WHY is this suddenly making the rounds on all the nerd sites? This photo is, like, 10 years old. The interview is on the DVDs for crying out loud. Dirk Benedict has since gone on record as being a total douchebag about the show and started calling Starbuck Stardoe because she's a sissy girl or something stupid like that. There's even mention of it on Wikipedia which I would link to if Wikipedia weren't down right now.

• BAH! <i>(Poor old Starbuck, you were imagined to early. Think of the fun you could have had `fighting' with these thong-clad aliens! In the spirit of such soft-core sci-fi porn I think a more re-imaginative title would have been F**cked by A Cylon. (Apologies to Touched by An Angel.)</i> THAT IS FRAKKIN' AWESOME! =D

• Bah, linkage fail. Dirk Benedict asshattery found here: http://www.dirkbenedictcentral.com/home/articles-readarticle.php?nid=5 Oh, and if I had Mjolnir for a day? I'd use it to give Dirk Benedict a good smack in the mouth. And then I'd sit back with the biggest, dirtiest cigar I could find and have a good puff.

• I think I just peed a little...

• An Open Letter to Dirk Benedict... Dear Mr. Benedict, Congratulations. You, sir, are rocking your 66 years of age. I don't know if it's a combination of clean living and daily mediations along with avoiding toxic foods -- or if you're boozing it up with dollar hookers from Tawain while chugging beers and smacking down wings...but please do share your secrets with us. Best Tom P.S. oh please oh please oh please let it be #2!

• Ugh, do not want. I have no interest in anything this asshole has done, ever since he spat in Katee Sackhoff`s face with his "Stardoe" and "Womenz has babies, men has cigarz" comments, as seen in his charmingly sexist article, "Starbuck: Lost in Castration" (As seen here: http://www.dirkbenedictcentral.com/home/articles-readarticle.php?nid=5). The man's slime, and just seeing his face here pisses me off.

• Holy Nerdery Batman!

• Sad, but true. Benedict came of as a total douche nozzle.

• CODY,WHAT DID YOU DO?

• Yeah he was pretty shameless rip-off of the smarmy rogue type in the mold of Han Solo. Han Solo makes for a terribly repulsive female.

• You're telling me that in a world where I can leave starbucks, cross the street, and enter a starbucks, after passing a THIRD starbucks, there is no starbucks in starbuck MN?

• [Scanners guy]

• Oh god, this is some sort of sign, isn't it? Isn't the convergence of three starbucks in the book of revelations?

• Wow, he looks a lot better than he did when he was at a comic con here in Winnipeg a few years ago. He looked really old and rough then. Didn't know he's battled cancer though, so maybe that was it.

• There are a few companies with the name Starbuck in the name in Starbuck, MN. But no coffeeshops sadly. Seattle, are you listening?!? http://www.starbuckmn.org/directory

• He also had a few facelifts, and I don't begrudge him for it either. Both Mark Hamil and Richard Hatch should have followed suit. They look as if they are melting !

• I definitely find Sackhoff hotter than Benedict (although Sackhoff doesn't really do it for me). However, my first thought was "Holy Shit, Benedict looks exactly the same. How can that be, he must be in his sixties by now!"

• Battlestar Inceptionca.

• I'm pretty sure this picture is several years older than the A-Team cameo. I agree, though. I thought he was Gearoge Hamilto at first in th A-Team. The last few years have been hard on him apparently.

• Okay so, so far we've got Starbuck drinking Starbucks with Starbuck in a Starbucks in Starbuck, buck naked riding a star covered buck in a remake of Uncle Buck and now Da_Bearon's thinking about Starbuck in his bunk.....ok now the universe will explode

• Yah but by that logic, you might find a situation where Bea Arthur is the 'hot chick' in a photo...

• WIN! :D

• sorry to be a "i've seen it before noobs" jerk, but I remember when this picture was taken, it was just before the remake series was first aired, i remember seeing it on a BSG website just when I started watching the show.

• Yeah I happen to find katee sackhoff hotter than a 60 year old dude. Don't think im the only one. K I'm going back to not commenting since the disqus system makes it infuriating on my phone.

• This was from a special they did before the new(er) BSG started, talking about the differences between old and new. They had a passing of the torch (or cigar, in this case) from Benedict to Sackhoff.

• If Katee Sackhoff were naked I don't think I'd be talking at all. I'd be in my bunk.

• I remember hearing Dirk at San Diego Comicon talk about his prostate cancer. *sigh* Edit: do you mean Dirk Benedict actually smokes those ridiculous parody cigars?

• Lewis Black was right, it is the end of the universe

• awesome. Also. Dirk Benedict needs to get himself into some kind of action film as some wizened ex heroic figure. He looks pretty bloody cool. I'm thinking if ever they had need for an old Nightwing/Dick for any kind of live action Batman Beyond ...

• I'm thinking this is an altered photo. Watch after the end of the A-team movie credits. Dirk Benedict and Dwight Schultz make cameos and Dirk looks like a walking leather couch.

• You can smoke in Starbucks?! I'll have to try that out...

• Yo, dawg, I heard you liked Starbuck, so I took a Starbuck and put it with a Starbuck and put them in a Starbucks so you can frakkin’ Starbuck with the Starbucks in Starbucks, yo. Ok, y'all can hurt me now.

• From what I've heard, Benedict semi-retired from acting back in the '90s and moved his family out to a ranch in Montana. Apparently, working on a ranch keeps you in pretty good shape. I'll have to try it sometime, if I can ever detach myself from this desk chair.

• I'm surprised they didn't turn Face into a woman in the A-Team movie. Changing Starbuck to a woman ruined the BSG reboot for me. He was my favorite character on the original and his personality doesn't really convert well to female..y'know...cause he was such a dude.

• I met Dirk about 10 years ago at a the metro comic con. and the guy was completely awesome. took a ton of photos with us and talk for a few. best celeb ive evet met.

• Dirk Benedict is a national treasure.

• Yeah, it was a promo before the reboot happened.

• Is this an old picture? I remember there was a Starbuck v. Starbuck falling out when Dirk Benedict attacked the new BSG, and the new Starbuck, calling her Stardoe, and was annoyed about changing male characters to females. It's one of the reasons he was never a guest star on the show.

• There's a hot chick in the photo?

• And if they were buck naked riding a on a buck covered in stars starring in a new version of Uncle Buck, then we'd REALLY be talking!

• Not only 65 years old,but a survivor of multiple bouts of cancer too.

• In the words of Philip J. Fry: "That's the best thing I ever saw!"

• Wow Starbuck in Starbucks drinking a Starbucks with Starbuck. Now if this was the Starbucks in Starbuck, Minnesota then I believe the Universe may explode.

• Ok rob, if youre gay you can totally tell us. First swooning over Thor, then totally ignoring the hot chick in a photo in favor of a 66 year old man. Seriously dude just tell us, we'll still love you.

• Look how long George Burns lived smoking 2 or 3 cigars a day! :)

• So this was probably before Dirk Benedict started bad-mouthing the new show for being anti-masculine. ;)

• Cigar smoke is an amazing preservative, obviously. Wow.

• OMG! This is amazing. Shouldn't the universe be imploding at that exact location?

• It was a special feature on the DVD release of the BSG miniseries. It wasn't included in any of the other DVD releases: Starbucks meet Starbucks. It was kind of a lame segment, as I recall.

• I was just looked at really oddly when I claimed how awesome this picture was -- person had no idea about any of it.
