Best. Sci-fi show about a stripper cryogenically frozen and sent to the future. Evar.

[yendi]

mmm, Gina Torres and Jennifer Sky.

Come July, this set will be mine.

Oh, that was Gina Torres! I never made the connection before today.

[yendi]

Yep. I've been a fan of hers for years -- she was, to me, the "big name" on Firefly when it was first announced.

[mgrasso.livejournal.com]

Didn't like her in Angel though. No sir. In fact, all the Firefly cast members they turned into Buffyverse villains did nothing for me.

Come on, Adam...Adam Baldwin and Ron Glass were both more famous!

[mgrasso.livejournal.com]

::looks up Adam Baldwin in imdb::

Holy crap! He was Animal Mother in Full Metal Jacket??? Jeez! Again, it seems so obvious now that I know.

[terracinque.livejournal.com]

And he debuted in that utter charmer, My Bodyguard.

He's not biologically a Baldwin Brother, but I've always thought the Baldwin Brothers should fire Stephen and annex Adam.

[yendi]

Not for me. I'd tons of AB projects (starting with My Bodyguard), but never really connected the face and the name. And I knew nothing of Glass, not having watched Barney Miller.

That's why I know the Preacher! *smacks my forehead*

Barney Miller was really very very good, worth watching on reruns

[pkthunder.livejournal.com]

For me it was Nathan Fillion, but that's only because I watched "Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place".

mmmm indeed...and much easier to enjoy with the mute button activated...

[fiddledragon]

sweet!!!! I loved that show! It rounded out my evenings of Hercules, Xena, and Jack of All Trades quite nicely :)

[harold3.livejournal.com]

They actually made a show about a stripper being frozen and sent to the future?


really?

[terracinque.livejournal.com]

Yep. She was frozen-to-be-revived-later-when-a-cure-is-found, not because of cancer, a stroke or the Ebola virus, but because of complications during breast-enhancement surgery.

When she first wakes up in the pilot episode, she looks down at her chest and smiles in satisfaction.

[harold3.livejournal.com]

..... I don't know what to think about that.

[terracinque.livejournal.com]

You don't think about it. You giggle, and then you move on.

[xforge.livejournal.com]

And Victoria Pratt is chopped liver?????

[yendi]

She doesn't do much for me. *shrug*

Why did you not tell me about this (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0007MU1K0/qid=1115907544/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-4892400-3127268?v=glance&s=dvd)?

[xforge.livejournal.com]

I just discovered that one the other day myself. So cool!!! So totally getting it for my 2-year-old granddaughter.

[yendi]

Um, because I figured you already knew, because of your psychic TMBG-sensing powers?

[jeff-morris.livejournal.com]

Oh God. I love it. Another opportunity to irrevocably corrupt my one-year-old nephew. This'll be even better than "Badger-badger-badger".

With any luck he'll know all the lyrics to "Blue Canary" by the time he's in preschool.

I don't understand why Jennifer Sky, with those doe-eyes and million-watt smile, isn't a bigger star today.

Remember her as one of the hyena-delinquents in the Buffy' episode "The Pack?" She was cute then, but she really filled out between that ep and Cleo'!

[yendi]

I remember her from Buffy, but it was her extended run on Xena that really caught my eye. And I agree -- with her smile, she should be landing jobs left and right.

[terracinque.livejournal.com]

Well, she is working steadily (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0805021/), but not at the level I think she deserves. Cleo' was her highest-profile role, and obviously that wasn't very high-profile.

That song will now be stuck in my head all day.

[kellinator.livejournal.com]

Mmmmm... back in the dorm, we used to call that "Prostitutes in Space" while waiting impatiently for Jack of All Trades to start.

I don't guess that one's coming to DVD?

[das_hydra]

I remember watching that on Sundays when there was nothing else on TV...

[littlebuhnee.livejournal.com]

IN THE YEAR! TWENTY FIVE, TWENTY FIVE!

GAH! *scratches at brain*

[phantom_wolfboy]

That was what that was about? I never did find out.

[nishar.livejournal.com]

I loved that show. I'll buy it as well.
