Re: Jeri Ryan

I don't know if this is fact or not, but I distinctly remember someone (back then) saying how much friction there was "on set" between JR and KM because of Sevens increasing importance to the show. Can't say I blame KM, after all, she was the first female ST captain in a series and got upstage by the "Kes replacement" on a regular basis.

Having said that, I really enjoyed the scenes they have togeather on the show, in fact, some of that "behind the scenes" friction probably added to the scenes!

I gotta say though, for as much eye candy as JR was at the time, I still woulda rather settled down with "Captain Audrey Hepburn"

At least Jerri could act, and appeared to have half a brain, and didn't bang everyone in sight ending up with some nasty fish VD. At least Jerri had personality, was ballsy and could deliver a decent performance, not just sit around as a one dimensional, teary teen or staring blankly at nothing. Granted Jerri was banging the Braga at the time, but at least he was getting more action from a hot bird as opposed to Mazz and his mutant rats.

I'm sorry, but what does this rant have to do with my post so much that you wanted to quote it? I could see it on the Chloe or Mozzie thread sure, but why here?:confused:

Oh, there's other backstory stuff about Jeri...

Once she hit the show, most episodes featured her. It didn't hurt that she was playing snugglebunnies with the producer at the time.

That doesn't mean that I disliked the character or how she was portrayed by Jeri Ryan. Just a bit of backstory for the mixing bowl.

Was she? Where is the dirt! I never knew that!

Six degrees of separation!

Easiest place I could find http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeri_Ryan

There's a bunch more if you google "Jeri Ryan Brannon Braga" (without the quotation marks).

Excerpt from your link:

On June 22, 2004, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Robert Schnider agreed to release the custody files. The decision generated much controversy because it went against both parents' direct request and because it generally reversed the early decision to seal the papers in the best interest of the child. It was revealed that six years previously, Jeri had accused Jack Ryan of asking her to perform sexual acts with him in public, and in sex clubs in New York, New Orleans, and Paris. Jeri Ryan described one as "a bizarre club with cages, whips and other apparatus hanging from the ceiling."[13] Jack Ryan denied these allegations. Although Jeri Ryan refused to comment on the matter during the campaign, the document disclosure led Jack Ryan to withdraw his candidacy; his main opponent, Barack Obama, then won the Senate seat.

So in a small way, Jeri Ryan is responsible for Barack Obama being a senator? OMFG!

Don't take it personally Gatefan, I didn't mean it as an attack on your post.

I was merely pointing out the differences between JR and Chloe, and how that JR was initially a 'Lt Rack' type character for teens to get all hot over, she proved that she was more than just a hot bit of eye-candy...

I guess I should have worded my post more carefully, as it came across to heavy. My intentions were to show that Chloe is nothing more than slutty blue sushi with a nasty case of space clap. Eww.
My apologies for any misunderstanding.

Heh, no sweat mate :beckettu:

I didn't think it was an attack at all, I was just confused about the connection! (hence the :confused:)

But yes, 7of9 was originally (imo) just eye candy that grew to be much more, unlike Chloe where the only thing going for her is her "transformation". If it takes a multi-part transformation into some alien to get one of your main cast to be interesting, you (should) know you have a bad character on your hands. Fred's transformation into Illyria was much better imo because it didn't take half a season to do (more like the side story of 1 ep) and Fred was a good character in the first place.

that was common in the trek universe...Roddenberry cheated on his first wife with Majel Barrett and cheated on them both with Nichelle Nichols! :eek:

common obama situation...his "opponent" gets damaged by dirty info being illegally revealed. that happened to a couple of obama's primary opponents when he was running for the state senate as well.

I don't know, but I remember Nichelle Nichols taking credit for the entire US space program.

This is the kind of thing that makes me think on occasion, I wish I could scrub out my brain and un-learn some things. I sooo didn't need to know this. And I hate when knowledge like this pops into my mind when I want to watch an episode of Voyager.

I saw some pics where a guy ambushed her on the beach. It didn't looked planned. She was a real doll about it and gave him some good pictures. I'm sure Sharon Stone would have maced him, kicked him in the nuts and had him put in Sing Sing for 5 years.

Who the hell is Fred? Are you referring to ST The Motion Picture here?

Also @Robbierocketpants...
Who's the Tok'ra boobgirl?

Hahahaha Stoneless is back.

That anigif should piss off the newbies.

Tok'ra boobgirl AKA Tok'ra Spice AKA Tok'ra Barbie is Anise = Vanessa Angel.

This should help refresh your memory.
