Jacksprat, What are you doing in Singapore? Exciting, hectic, etc...? Yes, I found Bad Girls on YouTube as well, it's just not as pleasant a way to watch shows. Still I'll go check out Wire in the Blood, didn't know they had the entire episodes posted. |

Ladder, I've been working and living here for the past 8 years, altho had moved to Australia with my family from a very young age since I was born Singapore. Life is frantic, hectic and it can be quite an adrenaline rush at times............ still a part of me sometimes misses being back in Oz. Do have Hallmark Channel where you are? I think they might carry Wire in the Blood on it, but I don't know which series they are up to. By the time I found out they carried it here, it had finished it's run. U're right, YouTube isn't the greatest place to watch the shows. Beggars can't be choosers unfortunately, so for me it was YouTube or nothing. If you want to watch more of Simone, two of her movies are on YouTube as well -- Fallen and Heartless, altho the quality isn't fantastic. Fallen has an interesting twist in it with Simone's character ..... can't say what it is or I'll spoil it for those who haven't watched it. The clips for Fallen on YouTube is compressed so visuals look a little squashed unfortunately and it's been broken down into quite a few clips. As for Mandana -- I watched Coming up for Air on YouTube. I think the whole movie's there. Cheers!

Ladder - at the extreme risk of seeming even crazier (more obsessive) than I have to date, the picture you posted of simone and her husband with tickets in their hands, how easy would it be to enlarge the ticket to see where they were going that night? If I've stepped over the edge, just pull up the ladder and let me wallow down here. |

Jacksprat and Ladder, You rock! Thanks for the pictures ... just what a Simone-obsessed girl needs after a hard day at work. Ladder you are so right .. those eyes, those lips, ... all you can do is just give in to the obsession. Just keep posting those pictures, please. And on the day Simone walks into my store in Miami (and everyone comes here to party eventually, we get celebrities all the time) I'll have pictures FOR YOU. |

Jacksprat, So I watched Fallen, all because of your little comment on the twist... lol.... I was ready for nothing but hoping for the best, then after only a few clips on you tube I had a sinking feeling, and it was confirmed at the end, I hate that movie :smash2. In future, please don't direct me toward and in fact maybe you could warn me of movies where Simone's character isn't fabulously loveable in the end!! I won't say more here, so those who haven't seen it can experience it on their own.

Hi Ladder, Guess we all see the different roles Simone's plays differently in each show. What I'm trying to say is, at the end of the day, she's a great actress and whatever the ending is, it shouldn't matter because we can't hate / dislike her just because she's not lovable in a particular character. And most importantly it shouldn't tarnish our impression of her. Afterall, it was just a movie, it's not really who she is. If anything, it presented a gd contrast fm other roles I'd seen her in. It also showed how diverse and dynamic she can be on screen. And she can definitely do more action packed shows! Regardless of whether she's playing the good guy, bad guy, gay or straight in a particular role, it's still Simone and I'd still watch her regardless - because of how great an actress she is. We may disagree on this, but do keep an open mind if u can.

Oh jacksprat, you are taking me much too seriously, my view of Simone as an actress hasn't been tarnished in the least, don't worry. Simone would have to play a role that I found truly offensive to put her personal character into question. In the end I'm more of a romantic... I'm not as interested in action movies... and Simone wasn't really playing one of the bad guy types that I love to hate, instead she played one that I almost didn't know how to hate... I didn't trust her when she was talking to her higher ups, but I didn't think she'd end up the sort of bad guy she was, I felt too much sympathy for her character even at the end, that's no good when the character had done what she had done... even in the end I just didn't feel she was heartless the way her actions would lead you to believe she'd be... though maybe it's because I saw too much Helen in the rest of her role as the woman in charge giving David a chance (if not using him as a target) the way Helen had given Nikki a chance... are there really people who could be so sensitive yet indifferent to human life? Anyway, I don't want the mods to shut down our lovely pictures thread because of this, so please let me know if this note has helped explain where I'm coming from? |

Hey hey Like I said, we all have our own views and experiences. There's certainly no hard feelings at all. I believe each person will definitely have something different they take away from Simone's different roles (or any other actor for that matter). I'll be putting up more images of Simone from Wire. Wish there were some new ones of Mandana............. Cheers :lol: |

Actually...I'd love to see Mandana do an episode of WitB. That could be utterly fascinating. |

Jeanna, I was just thinking that myself! I think she wld be great in it, at least in a meaty guest star role. I can see her playing: 1) A Forensic specialist 2) A Vice Officer 3) Another psychologist of a victim who challenges Dr Hill's theories and who works with them on a particular case to solve the case. She wld do very well playing a strong character. Wld be great if her role cld be recurring tho. Her and Simone have such great on screen chemistry. For those who are interested I also found some Mandana and Simone icons here - http://mandanafc.com/ - I thot some were quite nice. Mandana, Simone and Nikki & Helen Icons - MandanaFC.com |

In Australia, WITB was on the ABC as was Mandana in the 'Powers' series' Hallmark airs Simone in 'The witch's daughter' and Mandana in 'Coming up for air'. Unfortunatly nothing else of thiers airs here. |

I'd be thrilled if Mandana were in Wire in the Blood, I wonder if she and Simone could play it as if they don't know each other all that well, great acting challenge, I'm sure enough time has passed. |
