Go see at Trektoday - Joelene Blalock has been ripping it through the 'suits'. Everything she says is spot on. This is no bimbo, as people make out she is. She sounds like a Trekker/Trekkie!

Good interviews, the old one and the new one. I've been reading her previous ones, and she alwways raises as a poignant and thinking actress. Not necessarily surprising: being attractive means she's dumb? Nah. So far, she's been saying stuff other castmembers declared too: Under Berman and Braga the show had no real direction, no soul. And even when I like it, the first three seasons were no more of an adventure show in space. Coto arrived late. A shame.

I belive Season 3 had great direction and was good storytelling akin to the final seasons of Deep Space Nine. This season is even better, and Enterprise is looking more and more Trek all the time.
I honestly belive we have a good show -- and Blalock is right, you CAN have T&A with a good story, and I belive thats what we are getting this season.

Ye gods, TGL is still around? I thought they disappeared after ChrisH departed for parts unknown (i.e. somewhere outside the Internet)...

I think with Season 3 - Manny Coto would have been doing most of the work - it'd just that now for season 4 it's more... 'official' that he's in charge.
Yeah TGL - what happened there - I thought it when off line or something - it was the place to go on the net (for Trek stuff) once. Weren't the original forums connected from it in some way?

Yeah the wig is a definate turnoff. But i agree, in person she is far superior to any of the previous trek girls IMHO.

So I thought this thread was about Clint Howard, somehow, and was seriously weirded out.

If you want to see really bitchy - in a totally polite, you-have-to-read-between-the-lines sort of way, you want to read the recent interview Billingsley did. Probablky the most damning indictment of Trek since Beltran's rants. . . What is it with actors whose names begin with B? Unless they're called Brooks or Bakula that is.

Well for a start I don't want them to have Shatner on Enterprise - it'd be shite-tastic. Leave Kirk buried on Veridian III.
Beltran's rants were just stupid crap. No one really cared anymore.
Lee, where is this Billingsley interview?
And wasn't that Blalock's real hair on SG1 - she's blonde.
