  3. poebegone says seen that show. not as hot as it can be, given what it's got to work with. will keep an ear out for a Shirley vs. Marilyn cy'bot showdown. (KoriLinc, your idea might very well the twist to her subplot - it's TV, after all. ;D)

  5. Mike the Knife says Shirley, you jest. Actually, I rather like "The Sarah Connor Comicals," particularly for the chance to see the lithe and lovely Summer "River Tam" Glau kick tush as the Babe-inator. All the rest is gravy - or syntheplasm.

  6. Anna says I just read about this yesterday! I also read that Universal doesn't want to release her solo album because it is too noir for them....har har But that gives me a ray of hope that the album might sound like Garbage's earlier work....

  11. Jonh Ingham says If Universal doesn't like it, her album must be OK! I like the Terminator series, mostly to watch Summer Glau out-act everybody in sight. If Shirley holds her own that'll be 2 reasons to watch.
