Morena Baccarin

[andy-hughes]

I've just reached the bit in Homeland where she shows her new short haircut to her husband.

I can't understand how he is still able to breathe normally!!!!!!

(Yes, I know I am sad ..... !!!!!)

[-SharonA-]

Is this in series 1?

[andy-hughes]

It is indeed.

We have the decorators in, our tv is in tha garage, so I am in the office catching up with this series - I hope it remains as good as it has been so far.

[Mozz71]

As a long time fan pf the Sci-Fi series Firefly, she'll always be Inara Serra to me.

I have not seen the series, but I have just Googled some images.

I am now off to have a long lie down in a darkened room, and a brisk rubdown with a damp copy of the NME!!!!!!

[Mozz71]

Must be a retro copy, they're electronic only nowadays.

Probably shouldn't mention her in the Deadpool movies then. The ol' ticker may not take it.

[andy-hughes]

What does 'electronic only' mean?

I will make a note to check out the Deadpool movies, thanks - how many are there, and are they good?

[wolf63]

I recognise her name, I think that she was a baddie in Stargate.

[bednobs]

yes she was

[Mozz71]

By electronic only, I mean they don't produce paper copies of the mag anymore (to my knowledge).

The Deadpool movies (of which there are two) are extremely funny, extraordinarily filthy, and very much comic-booky. For comic book fans, they're essential, for non-fans probably approach with caution. If you're interested solely for an hour and a half in the company of Ms Baccarin, you only need the first film. She's barely in the second.

[Mozz71]

Wolf, Stargate had a habit of taking refugees for other cancelled SF shows into their cast. I recall Jewel Staite, another Firefly cast member also joined SG: Atlantis, plus the two leads from Farscape.

[ToraToraTora]

she was in V with short hair too but I've always hated page boy hair cuts on women. Kaley Cuoco (BBT) for example went with short hair briefly, bad Kaley very bad!

Sorry, I was being sarcastic - even I'm not THAT out of touch!!!!!

[Mozz71]

I've always loved them Tora. Being an 80s teenager, the likes of Clare Grogan and Jane Wiedlin always floated my boat.

[Mozz71]

I did wonder how a music journo could not know that!

[andy-hughes]

I like them if the lady concerned has the necessary features to cary it off - good cheek bones, big eyes, a cute nose and pretty ears.

Claire Grogan has none of those - I saw her on a TV shoot once, she was rude to me becuase the paper I wrote for was rude about her - not my fault, obviously.

Funnily enough I met Kim Wilde under exactly the same circumstances, and she was rude about the paper as well - but not in my prescence, she was in a portacabin and the window was open.

She was perfectly sweet when we were introduced, and I enjoyed interviewing her.

[wolf63]

Mozz, Colm Meaney was in Stargate Atlantis and also in both DS9 and TNG. Robert Picardo was in in Voyager and Stargate Atlantis.

I miss Stargate Atlantis. :-(

[Mozz71]

Miss Wiedlin certainly met the criteria you listed there. Funnily enough, I follow Jane on Instagram. She's aged beautifully.

[Mozz71]

I knew Picardo was in it, but didn't know Meaney was. To be honest though Wolf, any shows that runs as long as the Stargate series did Colm Meaney was bound to show up somewhere. He's a bit like Mark Sheppard in that way.

[Prudie]

I only really know her from repeat appearances as the rather naughty Erica in the Mentalist. She certainly is stunningly beautiful. however she wears her hair.

I know, I am a huge Mentalist fan.

I think Patrick showed admirable restraint - if she came onto me like that I'd come over all unesessary and fall over in a dead faint!!!
