Lucy Lawless To Be On Battlestar Galactica

[Joxcenia]

Got this from Creation's email:

PS: Lucy Lawless will be guest starring on an episode of one of television's finest genre dramas: BATTLESTAR: GALACTICA for the Sci-Fi Channel! Any show that Lucy is on is worth catching, but as Battlestar Galactica fans previously we now have another reason to watch! FYI, we are licensees of the property already so be on the look-out for more information on Lucy's appearance as well as licensed photographs of her in character! Go, Lucy!

I am really happy about this development as I love the new Battlestar Galactica.

I don't know if she'll be a reporter or a Cylon or what. If she's a Cylon I hope
she's a really tough improved model and is used to kind of come down on Six a bit,
because Six's loyalty to the goal is beginning to be doubted - the old "you've
been exposed to the humans for too long" criticism. What really may be the
danger is Six has started talking about The Gods, a belief in something higher,
which would be higher than Cylons, which would indeed be a danger to them,
which I guess comes back to "you've been exposed to the humans for too long."
Which I think would make sense in the writing going on because of how Starbuck
broke the chain of command because of such a belief - had to go get the arrow
back on Caprica because of a legend and The Presidents' belief in the legend and
her destiny.

Got this from another Creation email:

LUCY LAWLESS ON BATTLESTAR: GALACTICA!

Lucy checked in with us about her appearance on Battlestar Galactica. She said she's signed on to do one episode of a character that could come back. The character she plays is a reporter, D'anna Biers, who is a threat to expose the goings-on on the ship. Her presence ratchets up tensions between the crew members.

"This was a chance to work with old friend, David Eick, who was mentored by Rob on Hercules. They actually came to me to be on BG in the beginning, but with two tiny kids, I was not interested in the one-hour lifestyle. Looking forward to playing with the wonderful BG cast, though, and visiting my old Vancouver haunts from drama school days." -- Lucy

So will this be airing this fall?

[Joxcenia]

All I know is what I got in my Creation emails.

[AresGirl]

It will be airing this summer -- Around August.

Well I wish her luck. It's still not the same as having a weekly new ep of Xena, though. I'll probably check it out.

[Sarpedon]

I read today, someone wrote on another forum, she will be in 3 BG episodes. That these are listed now on her page at IMDB.com. imdb.com/name/nm0005128/

"Battlestar Galactica" playing "Anna" in episode: "Home: Part 2" (episode # 2.7) 26 August 2005
"Battlestar Galactica" playing "Anna" in episode: "Home: Part 1" (episode # 2.6) 19 August 2005

Sharon spoke with Lucy. She's only in episode and it is called "Final Cut." No word on when it'll air.

[Joxcenia]

Thanks for the update, Jenn...

[AresGirl]

There's lots of confusion out there about the whole BSG thing.

[Joxcenia]

Okay... got this in a Creation Email:

LUCY LAWLESS: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA UPDATE

We just talked with Lucy and she says she only did one episode, "Final Cut," which is listed as #8. That's the title on her script. She doesn't know anything about "The Farm" or "Home parts 1 & 2." (which various internet sites have reported her being in).

We'll have to wait and see what the official www.scifi.com/battlestar site says when they start listing the episodes for next season.

Thanks,
