Wait a mo', I thought RDM said in the last podcast that he really wanted to dump the fat makeup as soon as possible because it was expensive, time-consuming and really hard to shoot so it looked convincing? Does that mean Jamie Bamber is becoming a method eater? Eww...
Then again, in the next par, Eick says "the big surprise is the fact that a very central character will no longer be with us by the end of the third episode." Humm, does any one think that if a certain spoiler about the third episode is true thenSpoiler:Lee Adama is going down with the Pegasus

Eick: Yes. You're going to see a newfound trust between them. And you're also going to see that there are many ways in which Laura continues to turn to Lee when she's unable to get answers from Adama.
" so i doubt it.

Nice as it might be to dream, they aren't gonna get rid of Lee Adama. Might be interesting if the got rid of Bill, though, especially after all those panicky rumors that got started after the finale podcast (or watever it was).
"Central" to me means one of the characters whose storylines we follow and who are central to the plot. Tigh's wife doesn't count, in my book, especially since a lot of fans don't seem to like her anyway. What's the point of killing of a character folks are happy to see go?
Bill Adama would have the most emotional resonance, I think. Helo would be a "significant" loss without heavily affecting the make-up of the show (poor Helo ). Dee is a possibility, but again, a lot of folks seem to hate her right now and as much as I can't stand her, I think it'd be a cop-out to kill her off because it'd make a Lee/Kara relationship much easier. Kara's boytoy would be another possibility, but again, I dunno if I'd call him central. Beyond that... *shrug* I can't see them killing off Tigh, but I wonder about Tyrol. Seems a bit stupid to kill him at this point, but that doesn't mean it isn't possible, and if he was trying to protect Cally and/or prove to himself that he isn't a cylon... I suppose Cally could be a possibility, too, although it'd probably be after giving birth, leaving Tyrol all by his angsty self to raise the kid.
Lots of potential for major shake-ups, depending on how major the death is gonna be. I'd say Lee, Kara and Baltar are the only safe bets on survival.

I wish I hadn't read that article, now I'll be thinking about who is going to die for the next 5 months!!!
I was thinking Laura Roslin is a possibilty, her time is pretty much over. She isn't the dying leader leading them to Earth anymore. She isn't President any more. But the article did say that Lee and Laura would have a better relationship this season, so it probably will not be her and she is basically the opposite of Bill Adama
I don't think that RDM could get away with killing off Bill Adama without having a fan revolt. So I think he is safe. Sure his death would have a huge impact on the show but I think his death would destroy a central facet of the show. A leader, leading the last of humanity to a safe haven.
Basically the same with Kara and Lee, too much fan support for them to kill them off. So I think both of them are safe. Starbuck and Apollo are too central to the story to kill them off.
Baltar is too central to the plot to kill off. Now of course they could always kill him and somehow bring him back as a cylon. Remember in the pilot, 6 in the head said they really should make a copy of his neural pathways, maybe the cylons did and Baltar will be resurected as a cylon. Wouldn't that play into his ego to become basically immortal and in control of the cylons. Basically a god. They kill him off in episode 3 and then bring him back as a cylon a few episodes later, hunting humans for revenge for killing him. With the hero 6 on the planet now, she is in love with Baltar, Baltar is in love with her. I could see 6 making him a cylon somehow if he was killed. But then again the theme that human's are betrayed by another human is really a central theme in the show. So I think Baltar is safe.
That leaves us with Tigh, Dee, Tyrol, Helo, and Cally. I don't want to count Anders, he's not that central to the plot unless in episode 1 and 2 of the new season he becomes bad ass freedom fighter but as ShadowMaat pointed out, it would be a cop out to kill Anders off. I don't think Tigh will die just because of what Eick said in the interview about introducing a new character from Adama's and Tigh's past. Cally is a possibilty but is she really central to the plot? The same with Dee, she really isn't central to the plot, she's really just been either Billy's lady or Lee's lady, her death really wouldn't make an impact on the audience.
Helo or Tyrol, both of have found wide audience support. Helo's role in the plot is really over, he fathered the child. Now he just seems to be a love sick puppy, pining away over Sharon. So I could see them killing Helo off just to make an impact with the audience. Tyrol at least from the season finale seems to be coming into his own as far as plot. He seems to be the leader of the union which could easily transform into the cylon resistance.
I don't think RDM and Eick would do a real cop out and kill a cylon off since they don't really die and their deaths are essentially meaningless unless there is no resurrection ship near the planet.
So I think it will be either Helo or Tyrol that will die as those two will resonate more with the audience.

Cottle isn't central. Helo on the other hand, I've been worrying about him since mid-season 2. I'll be crushed if he gets killed, though he does seem to be one of the most likely targets. *sigh*
It'll severely impact my judgement of the show if Helo's the goner. He and Cally are my favorites.

When Eick said, "the big surprise is the fact that a very central character will no longer be with us by the end of the third episode," in a video interview on SciFi Pulse, Baltar said that he would no longer be secretly plotting against the humans on Galactica, instead he would be with the Cylons-that is probably what he means. He never says anything about a character dying, I think if a character were to die, that would say-"a character is going to die within the first three episodes"
