i always liked torresani, the chick from the Galactica spin off; She seemed to have good chemistry with Kevin, seemed to actually be geeky, and i liked her sense of humor.

For me the holy trinity is Chobot, Haislip, and Felicia Day.

I don't begrudge Haislip the tweety name dropping. It feels like my kid sister hit it bigger than she thought, and is reveling in the success for a bit before she comes back down to earth.

I may have said something like this before, but I think that the problem a lot of people have with Candace is that she's more dork than geek. As for me, I've grown to enjoy her a lot. She's hilarious even when she's not trying to be.

So what exactly is the difference between a dork and a geek?

a geek is more in touch with sci-fi, comic books, video games, tech, etc. pretty much all the stuff they cover on aots. a dork is more of a spaz. i think.

That perfectly describes her on The Daily Show if you substitute "comedy" for "games."

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread

So Brett Ratner was on the Howard Stern show today. He said that actually he and Olivia are good friends and he never had sex with her. He said he made that stuff up after AotS put him on the spot. Supposedly, the story from the book is not about him. Not sure what to believe now...

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread

I was actually bummed at the announcment, especially since it was a good hour having Haislip back, but it was not meant to be, and she's moving on. Good luck!

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread

The minute they do anything for the network, you know their time left on the show in counting down. Good luck to Haslip.

Of course, this obviously works in reverse for Candice, who came go G4 from Network TV (Jericho). LOL so who knows?

As for Ratner, why the hell would he lie about that kind of thing. "Put on the spot"? No you say its not you and move on.

Maybe we can get both of them in a room to get down to the real story.....and then lock that room and set it on fire.

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread

When I read a headline about a big name director using a slur, I immediately knew it was Ratner.

I don't believe his denial.

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread

Did it look like Candace was really glad to be back on AOTS on Tuesday's show?

So, did Candace play the deaf girl character on "Jericho"?

No, she played the helpless high school chick who gets together with the dorky young guy who worked at the local Jericho grocery store.

Ah, okay, didn't think the deaf girl looked much like Candace, but it's been a few years since I saw that show.

Yeah, I didn't recognize her as being on Jericho when she came on AotS even though I watched all of Jericho when it aired. She was must have still been in her teens when she did Jericho. I checked out a few clips on youtube to remember that character she played on it.

I couldn't figure out if they were new boobs or a wonder bra.

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread

I don't think they are new but I wasn't sure at first. If you look at those segments where she is in black bra and panties trying to do something seductive, they look about the same. And those started running before her vacation.
