Erin Gray most sexy (and sexual) episode. I'm really sick of your Janeway bashing. And her and Seven of Eleven just light up the screen with their chemistry. Better, I suspect, than Mulgrew. Take your favorite fandoms with you and never miss a beat. I just love this episode and love Wilma Deering's ultra sexy spandex uniform (2 decades before Seven of Nine). Gibney might have worked as a chief engineer, reprising her Leah Brahms role. Hell, if I weren't happily married, I'd probably be one of those mouth-breathing, stalkerish fans; camping outside her fence in a dirty, windowless van.... And to think - right now in an alternate universe where she did play Captain Janeway and you're single? He wasn't famous - he was well-known in British THEATER circles, yes, but surely not for anything that went beyond that. I think if I were a casting director the only former Trek star I'd have questions about would be Avery Brooks. Erin Gray can't act her way out of a paper bag. She complained about restyling her hair and was uncomfortable with the makeup (Bujold’s spokeswoman denies this). It has a lot less weird vowel combinations to deal with (unless you're talking TEXAS accents, of course, hahaha).

I can totally live with the term "awkward" for his performance because, well, everything was awkward back then. I love the heavy reuse of Battlestar Galactica Props in Duck Dodgers-i mean Buck Rodgers. I mean look at all the 'u's you can drop when you have to spell things, lol. Well, those are the sorts of things the writers get in mind whenever they see the actors interact; such as the Kirk/Spock/McCoy dynamic in TOS (the McCoy/Spock thing took off because viewers loved seeing them bicker). According to studio sources, the 52-year-old French-Canadian film actress wasn’t ready for the grind of a weekly series—especially the series’ 18-hour days, long even by TV standards. Omega Sector Admin, Jean-Luc's Loving Husband, Omega Sector Moderator, Loveable Vulcan House-Pet, Omega Sector Moderator, Riker's Personal Bear Cub. Of course many of them have reached iconic levels (Jean-Luc, Chekov and Scotty) but that doesn't make things any less irritating sometimes, haha. Bujold under-acted, Mulgrew over-acted. This ain't over, dude!". Google Maps May Have Steered Me Wrong. I do agree that Mulgrew was certainly a better choice than Bujold; just looking at that early footage of Bujold and I really have to ask, "Bermaga; WTF were you thinking?". Mulgrew is a bit more...alive. The actress says bon 'voyager' to the grind of a weekly series.
