It's possible it has been released elsewhere and snuck into Canada. Even
places that don't normally sell imports will sometimes get a couple.
Also,::hauls Queen Flag out of retirement:: (are we still allowed to wave
flags, or is that not PC anymore?) there are other symphonic Queen
recordings. So if folks are going to buy this new one, make sure you've
got the right one. (Check the copyright date on the back.)
obHL: Queen did a musical. Apparently it's quite good. Perhaps if DPP
are still thinking HL: the Musical, they should get some tips from Brian
and Roger.

*Shrug* and I was bored for the first time in 5 seasons of a terrific show.
Whatever floats your boat.

Producer/Writer Joseph Mallozzi said "full time, every episode." Since he's
writing quite a few of them and producing half of Season 7, I think he'd be
up on the details.

Maybe Nemec didn't want to be locked into the show for another season.
Perhaps he wanted to pursue something else, or different role opportunities
opened up that were more to his liking. He's saying he's got a handle on a
new movie role already.

I wasn't cheering the writing item. I was pointing out that a studio does not
take back an actor who is 'begging' them for his return to the show out of a
sense of mercy...and then hand him the writing duties for an episode.
Methinks he negotiated from a position of power.

Maybe it was the truckload of mail that he had dumped on their

OBLHLR:
I was at my mom's nursing home yesterday for their Christmas
party. My mom, who is a long time collecter of bags (and jars,
fine family tradition) ::::: primal shriek ::::: had a bag full
of - stuff next to her easy chair. It was fairly dark in that
corner, and I saw a picture of a head of dark hair, and the words
"Your Head". My first thought was "AHA! A closet HL fan!" I
picked it up, and it was a bag from Hair Cuttery, with a photo of
a handsome olive-skinned man with black hair. I had to look for
quite some time to determine that it was NOT AP, but it was close
enough that it made practically no difference. The man was
younger, but the eyebrows and hairline were the same. The
words I saw were part of "Use Your Head", but it really made me
look twice. :)

So, he's not the brightest bulb in the Commonwealth? Cause the show is like
Sci Fi for Dummies lately.

Wasn't Farscape on Scifi? If so you can't really compare them because
Andromeda is syndicated. Does anyone know who the assorted HL and
Raven alum are that have been on Andromeda? The only ones I can think
of offhand are Geordie Johnson (Raven), Roger R Cross (Derek), Gerard
Plunkett (Kantos) and of course Paul Johansson. Since Andromeda is
filmed in Vancouver it seems like there are probably more but those
are the only ones I can think of.
