She played a call-girl girlfriend on "The West Wing," David Conrad's sister on "Relativity," the transsexual boyfriend of James LeGros on "Ally McBeal" and an Orthodox Jewish woman losing custody of her kids on "Family Law."

Wohoo!!!
 Thanks so much, Cat  And look  :House's Lisa Edelstein, on KTTV My Fox Houston Interview I'm too afraid to watch them since I suspect she's doing all those interviews to promote her upcoming episode   __________________

Yes, that is indeed the purpose of these interviews.
 For the first time in her whole career she's getting an episode of a show she's on that's all about her and lets her take centrestage, I'm so proud of her and also maybe even a little emotional.  |

the stuff I'll have to catch up on just keeps piling up  I can't wait for my exams to be over already  Quote:
Same here, I'm just insanely happy for herAlso, I'm kinda proud that I managed to be almost completely unspoiled (which, I admit was at least so far easier...studying 24/7 and all) I only stumbled over the title of the episode (I thought they'd call it "Cuddy"  ), but there seems to be a huge amount of buzz around that epi (a friend of mine said there were like 500 comments on a promo or something? )- I'll have to avoid all the fandom wank and keep my expectations a bit low I guess (not that Lisa does ever anything sub-par when it comes to her acting, but you know what I mean ...*cough* writers *cough*  ) but I'm optimistic, I love S6 so much so far __________________

US Weekly gives her episode 4/5. And I quote them: "As tension mounts on all fronts, Edelstein's performance - empathetic yet commanding - doesn't miss a beat." |

, still...that's a lot of commentsQuote:
Sounds wonderful Let's hope it'll be this way with all the reviews - if not: screw them! I want her to get some of the attention and praise before everyone else will forget about this and only talk about Hugh directing... I mean there's a reason why people call her House's leading lady even though she's only getting like 60 seconds of screen-time on average, right? Hi Ju  Glad you could join Cat in entertaining me while I live in House exile I just noticed that our banner is gone. I wish I could do fan art stuff Well, this'll pretty up the page a bit  : __________________

She deserves itYou know maybe it's all the studying going to my head, the reading a lot of mind-boggling articles (if you have time and low blood pressure I can recommend them) like: Remember when I said they teach you not to write screenplays with women as leads? Female characters exist to promote male leads for network profits, or any of these Women in Hollywood - Jezebel or I'm just generally insane, but what I mentioned (Lisa finally getting her turn to take centre-stage, only for Hugh (yes, he's great bla bla bla) to get all the more attention only a few days later) made me kinda sad the other day She should get so much more recognition for her work on House (well, it is difficult due to it being an ensemble show with one lead, I realise that) But then I stopped freaking out about it and decided to 1. worry about way more important things 2. just be happy for Lisa to exist at all and if she's happy who am I to worry about it So there you have it... my lunatic moment of the week Can you tell I'm completely deprived of crazy fangirling and therefore have to let my madness out somewhere else?Quote:

I just wish Lisa got a lot more recognition for her ability than what she does, she's so good and I feel like people are missing out, plus I want her talent to be more rewarded. I know she's no doubt perfectly happy just how things are and doesn't mind at all, but it would be nice to see someone as hardworking and dedicated and talented as her getting the praise she truly deserves. So due to a combination of various circumstances, I won't be able to watch the Cuddy ep till Wednesday evening, I'm already crying over this fact.  |

Very well said.Quote:
I guess my frustration stems from the fact that the only person who ever seems to get anywhere on this show is Hugh - which is well deserved, seriously I love him and as I said it lies in the nature of the show itself - he got the executive producer title, he gets to direct episodes...and all the other great actors like OE, PJ and of course Lisa are kinda "stuck" (which for actors is a great thing too given their work environment, but you get my drift I hope).And then I read that on Bones DB is directing now too (which again might be for completely different reasons: I don't know whether Emily just doesn't want to or whatever) and in addition to all the other misogynist crap going on in Hollywood and in general I kinda snapped Quote:
I've not seen a single episode yet...it drives me crazy But I read about your job and was so happyOnly two weeks to go for me and 4 days for you. You can do it, Cat Quote:
Great to have the two of you here Quote:
Do we know anything about why they were not released yet__________________

Too wiped to write much at the moment.
But I discovered that I'd gotten my dates mixed up a bit, I'll be able to watch the ep on Tuesday evening, which isn't bad at all. |
