  • She does "Bad" so well...

    ...and is she a busy girl in 2009 or what? Not only is she stirring things up, for now on a weekly basis, on True Blood but she is also due to start turning her hand to character destruction in a Canadian series called "Durham County" with Hugh Dillon (Flashpoint) and Helene Joy (Murdoch Mysteries).



    ...this must be the era of having several series on the go at one time...



    At any rate, I never could really get into Durham County but with her and Hugh Dillon in cahoots...that's about to change. I'm sure Michelle will take bad to the extreme in both True Blood and Durham County, but will she come out on the right side as she did with "Ensign Ro" on TNG?



    I guess the fact that her characters are so easy to either hate or at least mistrust, makes her a go-to performer. Looking forward to seeing all the havoc she can wreak this season...
  • She gives all her characters a certain personal depth, something that makes her acting unique.

    I remember first noticing her in "Star Trek: The Next Generation", I was little and I wanted when I grew up to look just like her, she was so beautiful despite the wrinkly nose and everything. Then, a couple of years ago, when I was all grown up, I saw "Homicide: Life on the Street" which instantly became one of my favorite shows ever, and guess who was on it?? Her character became and dare I say still is my favorite female character in a TV show. She is very tough, which makes her a great role-model. I, after that, started noticing her in more and more TV shows, too bad they are only episodic appearances. I loved seeing her in BSG, and her contribution to "In Treatment" is priceless. She has the sense to choose great characters, strong, independent women with dark pasts and demons to fight. She gives all her characters a certain personal depth, something that makes her acting unique. I can`t wait to see how her character in True Blood turns out! Hope I get the chance...
  • Just caught Michelle Forbes as a defense attorney in The Inside episode ‘Thief of Hearts’ - so good!

    Just caught Michelle Forbes as a defense attorney in The Inside episode ‘Thief of Hearts.’ She played the lead suspect’s defensive attorney and I was really struck by her presence in the episode. While only a guest star she really captured every scene she was in, enough so that I was compelled to look up who she was and what else she was in.



    In some strange way she mind of reminds me of Sela Ward (both in style and appearance) but with a harder edge. Kind of like what I think Sela Ward would be like in a bar fight!
