[LAS ] [chakram-refugees] Lucy on BSG and Burn Notice. ["Cheryl Ande" ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sun, 29 Jul 2007 11:31:13 -0500 From: LAS Subject: [chakram-refugees] ATTENTION!!! ahhhh, the group is back..... roach, jackie, cr and julie said, talking about dial-up. >>> > --Hey Roach, that would be *me*--the last Xenite on dial-up! ;) LOL >>> > DSL or cable are just too expensive.....;( >> >> >> >> ROTFL!!!!!!!!!!! Awwwww, poor Jackie. She's in the dark ages. ;) > > cr - "Me too. 56K on a good day. On a bad day I get ~45K of line noise courtesy of Telescum and maybe 9600 of signal, if I'm lucky." well, me too! that's why i don't vote on some of this stuff. too hard to do all this work with my system. ah, she's a wonderful slow system that kindly keeps me on the internet. jackie, about burn notice, it's a pretty good show, feels like i'm watching cops and robbers movies. about spy stuff in miami, campbell has a pretty good role, sharon gless from cagney and lacey is in it (lacey), and some pretty good humor moments which i like in a drama, which is one of the reasons i liked XWP so much. people had a sense of humor. they don't always take themselves serioiusly. at one point, in one of the first shows, gabrielle anwar (the second major role player) and campbell walk up to two people, pretending to be cops, and they introduce themselves as cagney and lacey.....see what i mean. julie, thanks for the filler on football wives. i'd wondered what happened to it. and for those BSG fans who want to know (this might have already been said) this week's tv guide says that LL which be back this last season replaying d'anna biers (spllg?). jackie and roach, jackie you said (wow, it's fun to be in conversation with all of you again)...anyway, you said, "Roach, at the risk of sacriledge, I do agree with you about "boredom and lameness" in some of LL's guest roles. For some reason, she doesn't always choose her vehicles well....... and no other part (IMO) fit LL as well" as XWP did....." actually, i've felt for a while that because XWP was so uniqly powerful in its portrayal of women, and because LL played the role so powerfully and herself is a powerful person (which is why she was chosen), and because there are so few powerful female roles in entertainment media (come on, we have to go back to Star Trek: DS9 for kira nerys and dax, and Star Trek: VOYAGER for b'ellana torres and captain janeway, and then cagney and lacey) there aren't any real roles for her to fill out in the same way and cut loose. like having a good bra...ya can't fill it out right if it's not cut right...couldn't resist that. julie, along with the characters you mentioned, some of my favorites are women from mercedes lackey's books, including tarma and kethry from the "vows and honor" series. check it out. lilli. ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.

I was pleased to see that Lucy will return to BSG. Like cr I thought D'anna was a fascinating character. There aren't many actors who could be vulnerable while torturing someone. Of course what I believe is happening is that the Cylons are evolving into fully realized human beings - they are not only developing emotions but with D'anna's character we see them developing curiosity about their relationship with their God. Interesting development for a machine. Any way it makes sense that D'anna would come since she is the only one who knows who the last five Cylons are. As for Burn Notice for those who don't know it is a show on USA (perhaps not oddly enough another Universal network). It's a very good comedy adventure show with a great cast which includes Bruce Campbell and Sharon Gless. It is interesting that basic cable has been producing some of the best shows on TV today - Balttlestar, The Closer, The Shield, Army Wives, and luring big name actresses such as Glenn Close and Holly Hunter to series. It seems that cable is offering more interesting scripted shows than the major networks.
