    I was wondering why all the actors were so down to earth

    What's funny (or scary in my case) is that my episodes of Captain Power are probably far from the most embarrassing performances I've ever delivered (and those episodes are indeed bad). Fortunately IMDB doesn't list even 2% of what I've done over the years and my resume about the same - and...

    I was wondering why all the actors were so down to earth

    I'm actually a miserable son a bitch, but since I'm Canadian my outbursts are often mistaken for kind words of praise. It's something my American therapist is working on, with his help one day I hope to become a true bastard. By the way, if onearmedmidget has any compassion he will quickly find...

    the seriese and what it will mean for the actors

    Residuals aren't as much as you think, especially on cable. Hello everyone, I'm back from China and glad to be home! Cleron this is a touchy subject for some to talk openly and honestly about since money and fame are sometimes regarded as taboo topics for artists (I'm including all the arts)...

    Worries; young actors, no ads...

    Joe D. you're the man! I couldn't have said it better myself. It's a pleasure to read posts by someone like yourself who understands the business. This is why the actors come to B5LR.com. Cheers, Dylan ------------------

    Hey Dylan

    Hey RW7427 it's my pleasure. I have to tell you that for us actors, reading and posting on this site can be a little cathartic. When you sign on for a new pilot it's always frustrating to have to wait several months to see if you get a green light or not - in this case possibly seven months from...

    Enterprise vs. Rangers

    In regard to marketing, the cast was always told that Sci Fi had intended to run trailers for the tv movie in movie theaters, just as they had for Dune. This is a gutsy move in my opinion since the trailer would obviously be compared in production quality with the other "feature" trailers (with...

    Enterprise vs. Rangers

    I'm referring to the American TV Guide, the week of Aug 25-31 with Scott Bakula and Jolene Blalock on the cover with the title "THE NEXT TREK". Let me give you a few similarities. A) Scott Bakula on his role of Capt. Jonathan Archer, "He's a renegade who writes his own rules and is a bit of a...

    Enterprise vs. Rangers

    Did anyone else have a shock when they read last week's TV GUIDE coverage of Enterprise? Coming from someone who knows, there are a few similarities between Enterprise and Rangers. From the desrcription of the captain, the ship the storyline and feel of the show, I'm a little worried about...

    JMS RESUME

    A while back I mentioned I had a copy of Joe's resume from the TCA in Pasadena. Now while I'm sure most of the visitors to this site are well aware of Joe's history and accomplishments, it occured to me that the rest of the cast of LOTR may have no real knowledge of what Joe has done besides B5...

    Jeremiah...

    I just realised another one while giving an interview. My very first job as an actor was in a CBS movie of the week called "Echoes in the Darkness" starring Gary Cole. That means that I've run into two of the four previous captains of B5 lore so far. It also means my first two jobs fourteen...

    Non-spoiler question for the cast

    Hi Mondo. I think Joe and I talked a little about David before we started, but we didn't touch on anything that wasn't already in the script. Once you've seen the movie you'll know as much about David as I do. I imagine that's the same for all the other characters you'll be introduced to. As...

    Jeremiah...

    I just thought of two more Warren. In 1997 I did a pilot for Fox and Tracey Scoggins had a recurring role in it. I didn't know of her involvement with B5 until recently. One of the other regulars on the same pilot was an actor by the name of Jeff Griggs who later did an episode of B5 as an ISN...

    Hello from a long winded Cap'n Dave

    Re: Hello from a long winded Cap\'n Dave Well Channe I would certainly describe the film as engaging, with a good amount of action and intrigue. I wouldn't say it is overly cerebral, but knowing JMS, the series would dabble in that territory particularly in light of some issues that are brought...

    Jeremiah...

    Here's another one Warren. I don't think I ever mentioned this to you but at the TCA convention in Pasadena, Joe and I learned that we literally live about a minute away from each other in the same neighbourhood. I teased him that it's my dog wrecking his front yard every morning. Oh and this...

    To the actors ? some thoughts about online forums

    You know what guys, I'm really touched that you would take the time and effort to look out for the cast this way, that really is very kind of you. I personally have no allusions about how awful and in some cases truly nasty people can get when discussing actors and their performances. I'm...

    Hello from a long winded Cap'n Dave

    Re: Hello from a long winded Cap\'n Dave I only saw some preliminary drawings of the Liandra, not a finished product. I wouldn't even know how to describe what I saw since I don't have a frame of reference from B5 ships and what your expectations might be. I can just imagine Slade...

    Hello from a long winded Cap'n Dave

    Re: Hello from a long winded Cap\'n Dave Sorry for the poor etiquette everyone. I've never participated in a chat room before, so I'm a grateful student. Computers are not my forte and I won't embarasse myself by telling you how long it took me to figure out how to get on the board in the...

    Hello from a long winded Cap'n Dave

    Re: Hello from a long winded Cap\'n Dave Hello again and thank you for your warm welcome. Let's see, what were some of those questions? In regard to the origin of the name Martel, I'm not aware of where Joe picked that up. He seems to have a story behind everything he does, including names. I...
