I haven't seen Jessica's work but I am looking forward to Wicker Park, which is in theaters Sept. 3rd. Does anyone know if she'll play as a love interest for Jack or Marcus?

I hope she'll be a love interest for Jack.

She's pretty, and she's got a pretty good resume... omg, big wolf on campus! i remember that show! i kinda sorta remember her on it. Looks like she's got a couple lead roles already. And a miniseries in 2004, hmmm...i wonder if that's aired yet. or well, when it will air.

courtney and jack would make a really cute couple. and i totally used to watch big wolf on campus, too! i loved it. haha. i thought the guy was hot, too. where did he ever go? adn what was his name?

_Leikela_ · 09-04-2004, 10:04 PM

She's so pretty. I've seen the pilot. So, I kinda know who she'll be paired up with and who she'll end up with, but I'll keep it to myself so people don't get spoiled, lol. All I'm gonna say is, I think Courtney and Jack would make a cute couple, too. Hehe.

yeah. i think there'll be some 'shipping going on for that couple

Not sure about the BWOC actor, I'd have to look it up on TVTome. Last I heard he was doing a movie with the guy who played his best friend on the show, but that was years ago and I don't even know if that movie came out. I'm really curious now. I think I'll check out the stats tomorrow.

_Leikela_- thanks for not spoiling us

I'm glad to know we'll know who to 'ship after the first episode

I think they'd be a cute couple too

**~softballllweirdo~** · 09-05-2004, 03:44 PM

ill have to check the show whatever out to see who it is, too. google it.

. neways. so you know who they ship after the first eppy? i thought on WB shows, they never told you anything till the finale of the first season or the second season. woah. this is knew. neways. i really like jack/courtney and will most likely ship them, but courtney/bobby would be sweet/cute.

hey, isnt there a preview somewhere that talks about her only... as one day becoming the first lady, but doesnt say who with? or am i just hallucinating. again.

I saw her in Wicker Park this weekend. She had a small part but she was good at the end. I can't wait to see her in Jack & Bobby

Courtney does seems pretty and her and jack will make a good couple.

QueenBitch · 09-13-2004, 12:15 AM

She seems very sweet, kind of girl-next-door. And she signed Bobby's petition, so she's nice. Not stuck-up.

Mhmm. I agree. She seems like an awesome character. I think it's great how she's the wealthy very pretty girl who could be popular but chooses not to be. She doesn't like the typical high school clique thing, it seems.

QueenBitch · 09-13-2004, 12:28 AM

She seems really caring, too. I think she's my favoite so far. Besides Bobby.

Courtney is a wonderful character. She's smart enough to like the nice guys, because they are nice. I can see that there will be some issues dealing with the recent loss of her mother. I just hope that she will open up to Jack. She seems like the soulful type of person who is very strong in her convictions. I want to see the relationship that she has with her sister. She seems to have the strong belief of looking out for the younger sibling. As said her conversation with Jack. I want to see how she treats her own sister.

Here's the information they had on Jessica at the WB.

Jessica Paré stars as Courtney Benedict, the new girl in town who harbors a painful family secret, in The WB's Jack & Bobby.

Born and raised in Montreal, Québec, Paré grew up watching her father on stage and screen and decided to try her hand at the craft. Paré started at workshops in her teens and quickly landed a bit part in a miniseries. She followed that up with an audition for a day player for the film Stardom. Upon seeing her audition, the director offered her the lead role.
Paré also starred in the television miniseries Lives of the Saints, with Sophia Loren and Kris Kristofferson. The miniseries was set in the 1960s, and Paré played a wild love child. Paré also appeared in the television movie The Death and Life of Nancy Eaton.
Feature film credits include Lost and Delirious, with Mischa Barton and Piper Perabo, Napoleon, Posers, and See This Movie, with John Cho and Seth Myers. Next up for Paré is the feature Wicker Park.
Paré currently lives in Los Angeles with her two cats.

Though we didn't get to see much of Jessica, I was definitely impressed. I also liked her in Wicker Park (just not her character) and Courtney seems really interesting. I can't wait to know more about her as a character, and for the show to delve a little deeper into different aspects of her.

**Casandra** · 09-14-2004, 05:03 AM

The first and only thing I had seen Jessica in before the pilot last night was Lost and Delirious. It took a little getting used to get into the Jack/Courtney cuteness after seeing her making out with Piper Perabo in that movie
