What? How can you compare the hotness that is Michael Trucco with butterface Joshua Jackson? When I think of Liz and Michael together, I think of a lot of things, but definitely not Polivia.

Let's see:

I think the show is based on the film of the same name, which had Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler in the leading roles.

Hawthorn

No, no, I would never compare the two on the level of hotness, I solemny swear!!
It's more about imagining Liz and Michael be a couple/romantic pairing, and there is a part of me that thinks I may end up feeling about them a bit like I feel about Peter and Olivia in the sense that Olivia has a very different type of allure compared to his. Michael is very handsome, but I see Liz better paired with someone more... rough-ish?
I swear what I mean to say is clear in my head, but as usual I'm failing hard at finding the right terms to write it down, err...
Thank you for the info!
Oh wow, I feel silly for not making the connection with the movie - I remember watching part of it years ago!
And you know, Charlie Sheen is Charlie Sheen and I have no idea if doing a show so reminiscent of his real life issues will pay off or backfire big time, BUT the show's premise has potential on its own.

Hamburgo1001

Oh, I get what you mean now, but I don't see any problems with that. Or at least not with someone like Michael. If we were talking about a Josh Dallas or James Denton-type then I would totally agree.

Wasn't that already the case with Two And A Half Man, though? I thought he was definitely playing a slightly exagerated version of himself there and the show was a huge hit.

Hawthorn

LOL, I just pictured David from OUAT trying to flirt with/charm a character played by Liz. She would incinerate him with one look. Or more likely, just pretend he doesn't exist.
Among the things V denied to me is the chance to test with my own eye Liz and Michael around each other.
See, this is where my old living under a rock concerning celebrities outside of their characters comes in, because I had no idea he had such problems until a couple of years ago.
Maybe he'll be lucky a second time. The show is on FX which isn't a bad channel at all.
I took a quick glance at the cast and the only name I recognize is Selma Blair, though.

But wait - did you mean Liz working with CS on Anger Management, or a different project? I might have jumped to conclusions.

~ayumi~

I saw two trailers and JSEJLSJFDLKSDJFLSJFLKJAohIQWYUI I would love for Liz to be on that movie

That's a very good idea, I'm sure our men would appreciate it I mean, our poor Josh is fed up with having to travel from Italy to Spain every weekend Niko too

What.

Ok, I read your explanation and I kinda get what you mean, but it would be hot, you just need to see it happen

And now that the show got renewed for a second season it's not a crazy idea. It can happen

Exactly. Seriously, they need to call her like now



Lincoln Potter is funny Yeah, I'd like her to play that kind of role. I'm sure she would be good at it.

sdjldjljjfldfjdlkfjldkljkldfjldk. I hadn't thought about the low-cut shirts. imaginary SoA Liz character+bike+leather jacket+low curt shirt+making out with Tig = *iz dead*



Well, I'd take that over nothing this year too

I hope they have them soon. I usually buy the books on eBay because they are cheaper, but I couldn't wait for GoT and I bought it in a shop too And I downloaded the Hunger Games trilogy to read with my tablet but I felt bad and today I'll go buy the first book when I get out from work I won't waste battery this way Also normal books > ebooks.

Don't watch anything, even if you forget about it



Yeah, that's right, blame Niko and his stupid face I do that too.



poor Joshua but

Hawthorn

It looks really good. BTW this is completely OT, but when I watched the first trailer, it wasn't a HQ version and somehow I mistook Logan Marshall-Green and his buzzcut for Jon Bernthal. I was like "congrats, Jon, had no idea you were in this!" for 5 seconds until I realized it wasn't him. Boo me.
Exactly. We can stress them out too much, they'll get tired and that will affect their performances.


...Acting performances, of course.
I must look around and see if any V fan made any Erica/John May manipulation.
Wish we had Liz's agent's e-mail to forward some of our ideas, lol.
I also think she would have a lot of fun filming a show like SoA. She did have a blast with the badass training & shots for V.
I know you understand my priorities.
I prefer real book to digital copies, too. I've been thinking about getting an e-reader, but afterall what you "save" in terms of paper gets used up in power/batteries, so. I also love the feel and smell of paper.
This is one of the very few times that my super crappy memory works at my advantage.
To use an expression popular nowdays, he is a life ruiner.

I guess right now, the one thing I'd like to know if she's even looking around for work. My feeling is that she is, but I can't base it on anything.

Hamburgo1001

I didn't have a specific show in mind. I was thinking more in general terms.

We had several on the Michael Trucco/John May thread on the V board. There were some videos too.

I hope she is, but for some reason, I'm not getting that feeling.

alphamae

I would agree this Liz better paired such tough-ish Imagine if you paired for Liz of those very handsome actors like Michael Trucco or Mathew Foxx it would be fully romantic and heavy drama ? sometimes I think I had enough emotional drama for Liz but absolutely shes amazing that part.


Me either,those movies that I posted here wish Liz to be anything on



I did read this while V Thread was on.

rubiegrae

He was on the Today Show earlier today and talked about how he's had more fun on Anger Management so far than on Two and a Half. Apparently it's only on a test run for the summer...so we'll see how that goes!Charlie Sheen apologizes for ‘cringeworthy’ behavior in ‘Today Show’ interview (Video) | TheCelebrityCafe.com

Hawthorn

Ah ok, thanks.
I will have to take a look around then, with a bit of imagination I could do a "visual test" of them together.
Because of how much of a low profile she has been keeping lately, or just a gut feeling?
I think that feeling the chemistry between two actors, especially if you have to buy into them playing the romantic angle, is very subjective. So I'm saying that in theory I like rough-ish actors to act certain scenes with her, but then it's all about seeing how one reacts to the actual thing once it's on screen.

I love to see (fictional) people deal with tons of angst and issues, but after Juliet and Erica, it could be fun to see a character who has a bit of an easier life, too.
Hi, and welcome to the forum, rubiegrae!

Thanks for the link - I couldn't play the video (probably because it's restricted to US residents) but I read the article. I hope for Charlie's sake and the sake of the show's crew that he is doing well with working on his situation and avoiding relapses of any kind.
I understand when he says that he didn't want all the bad things linked to what happened by the end of his stay on Two and a Half Man to be his legacy (saying working 8 days on AM was better than 8 years on the previous series is a bit extreme, though ).
Do we know how many episodes are supposed to be filmed?

Hamburgo1001

I just read that the last pilot lead of this season has been cast and it wasn't Liz. *Sighs*

It's just a gut feeling. Even when we got the pictures of her in LA, I didn't get the feeling that she was there for work-related reasons, but I could be completely wrong about this. Maybe she did audition for something, but it didn't work out.

I think it's 10 episodes.

alphamae

yeah,Im the one would agree this Imagine Liz in charcater is a good with opposite of those rough-ish.I realized now thats the one she's been huge amazing that part.



Probably she's still been choosing what's the best for her.

Hawthorn

I don't know if she wants/wanted another lead role so soon, though - she might feel some pressure after V.
Still, with March gone so are the best chances for news.
I guess I got a bit hopeful because of the timing of those candids, but one clue doesn't prove anything.
We were talking about the age factor on the Josh board and while I think it doesn't affect men *that* much, it's a different story with women, unfortunately. I wonder what kind of shows she was offered (I'm sure she got offers) and what her goals were/are.
Thanks!
I care for romance, but at the end of the day what matters are the single characters. So if her love interest isn't all that... interesting, I'll focus on the rest and try to get along with it anyway. That's what I do with Olivia/Anna Torv on Fringe.

Hamburgo1001

I was referring to series regular roles in general because a couple of days earlier, I had read that they were currently in the process of casting the last remaining series regular slots of this pilot season. I'm sorry that I didn't make myself clearer with my comment.

Yeah, while Hollywood seems to have opened up a bit age does continue to be a factor, unfortunately. I, too, would love to know what her plans are. Just to know whether she's looking for a steady role or simply one episode guest star gigs would already be great.

Hawthorn

Ahh, thanks for the clarification! My bad for not thinking that you meant serier regulation when talking about leads, it makes way more sense than my take on the phrase.
So, uhm, double damn about the missed opportunity.
I feel like we are in a sort of limbo right now - we keep our fingers crossed for news, without any clear idea if it's worth hoping for anything anytime soon.
If we knew she only wants to enjoy herself and her family at the moment, we would still have nothing to look forward to, but we'd be way less frustrated.

Even if she isn't looking for any real work commitment right now, I don't think she would turn down a decent guest star appearance offer. Those require a maximum of 1/2 weeks away from home, and are a fair way to keep yourself in people's minds during your "lay off" time. It's likely she simply didn't get lucky with the material presented to her.
