Happy Birthday! :D Made you something. ;)
Hi All, Please familiarise yourselves with the submission guidelines posted in the TV.com Guidelines Center found in the General user support forum before submitting information to this guide. Below are the person submission guidelines from the Guideline Center as a reminder, but please be sure… More to read the full guidelines using the link above. If you have read the guidelines and still have a question about a submission, please feel free to PM me. TV.com Person Submission Guidelines Biography Place of Birth, Full Name, Birth Name, Date of Birth, Date of Death, Cause of Death, etc., should all be submitted here rather than as Trivia. A brief Biography should sum up the person's career,have unique content rather then restate material already on the page, and be roughly 50+ words long and contain two or more sentences. Copy / Paste Material As per Terms of Use, all material submitted unless otherwise noted must be the contributor's own content, and stated in their own words. If the bulk of at least one sentence can be found on another site using a search engine, the submission will be rejected. You should provide a specific source for all material. If there is a URL, provide the complete URL (rather than just "wikipedia"). If you don't and staff can't verify the information, your submission will be rejected with a request for the source. Stick to facts about the person's life, not yours or anyone else's opinions. Don't use exclamation marks on Trivia and Biography entries. Alternately, if you're citing a source for a commonly held opinion, provide that source. Vague statements like "People think" or "Critics say" are not acceptable. ------------------------- Unacceptable: Frank Jones is the greatest actor of all time! Acceptable: Readers in the March 2005 issue of Entertainment Weekly voted Frank Jones the greatest actor of all time. ------------------------- Movie / TV / Play Titles Movie, TV, and play show titles must be italicized, bolded, or in quotation marks as per tv.com standards. If one of these formats is already in use on the page, stick with that. Outside of quote identifiers, do not italicize, bold, or otherwise special format names of people, institutes, etc. Always assume the reader knows nothing about the person you're writing for and what they've been in. Even if they're in a single show, that may change in the future. ------------------------- Unacceptable: Bob was chosen because he impressed the director with his skills. Acceptable: Bob was chosen for the role of "Jim Bob" on Who Wants to Be a Pig Farmer? because he impressed director Samantha Smith with his pig-slopping skills. ------------------------- Quotes Quotes should be interesting and give the readers insight about the person's life, values, beliefs, etc. As with Trivia, submitting 20 Quotes is often as bad as submitting none. Quotes can be cut-n-pasted for the purposes of accuracy, and as copyright law does not cover public statements. Q&A-type copyrighted interviews belonging to web sites, magazines, etc., in part or in whole, are not acceptable. Wholesale cut-n-paste from another site's copyrighted database is not acceptable. Quotes should always be formatted to tv.com standards. The name is bolded using HTML start and end tags, the colon is not. At least one space follows the colon. The quotation itself is not in quotation marks. Contextual material is italicized and separated from the bulk of text using brackets or parentheses. If another format is use on the page, please correct it. If you are changing a quote's format to make it consistent with the majority of the quotes on the page, please note that in Comments. Quotes should be the person's own words about their own life or someone who influenced their life. Quotes from their TV shows and/or movies are typically not acceptable (see below). Reviewer comments about the person are not acceptable. Quotes from a person's books, scripts, stand-up routines, stage performances, etc., are not acceptable except for one or two well-known quotes or catch phrases. Provide context for the quote. An actor talking about "he," "she," "my show," etc., means nothing to most readers. ------------------------- Unacceptable: Joe Smith: He is my idol and inspiration. Acceptable: (about George Washington) Joe Smith: He is my idol and inspiration. ------------------------- Reference to Time Submissions All material submitted should be in complete sentences. This includes a subject noun (the person's first name, full name, or simply he/she) and a period at the end of the sentence. General submissions with no reference to time should be reworded. The words "currently" and "recently" and "now" tell the reader nothing about when the event occurred. ------------------------- Unacceptable: Is currently married to Mary Jo Acceptable: As of 2006 he is married to Mary Jo Smith. ------------------------- Trivia Trivia should be obscure but interesting. Keep in mind that not all readers may be fans of the person, and submitting 20 Trivia items is often as bad as submitting none. As with quotes, taking another site's copyrighted compilation/database of trivia is a violation of tv.com policy and copyright. Trivia should typically be about the person you're submitting for. Unless it has a direct bearing on the person's life, what their mother, grandfather, dentist, etc., did is not acceptable. Trivia should be confirmed facts, not rumors. News about future events is iffy and it's typically better to wait until such events have occured and can be confirmed. Do not submit mailing addresses and off-site URLs Please do not submit "Trivia" that can be easily determined by information already on the page such as birthdate (i.e., astrological signs, year of high school graduation, their current age, etc.). Whenever possible, all related material should be combined into a single submission. This refers primarily to brief one-line items, but can include taking a Biography and breaking it up into separate Trivia submissions. This includes but is not limited to: movies and roles, sporting statistics and awards, physical description, family members, discographies, and favorites. ------------------------- Unacceptable: (three separate submissions) "He played in the World Series in 1992." "He played in the World Series in 1993." "He played in the World Series in 1994." Acceptable: He played in the World Series from 1992-1994.
Welcome! Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this actor! Enjoy :)
Happy Birthday Sasha! :D
Rizzoli & Isles is pretty standard procedural fare, but with a nice touch: subtle-but-persistent same-sex URST.
What to watch on Monday, July 12.
Plus: Fox renews another cartoon, sad news for the Oscars, and good news for Nick Swardson fans.
Fans were distressed at the death of Sasha Alexander's NCIS character but calmed down when they realized that the actress had wanted to leave the show. We can look forward to the introduction of a new female partner for Special Agent Leroy Jethro when NCIS returns next season.
I first saw Sasha in NCIS. As everyone else, I was disappointed that she left the show just after two seasons when the show was on the way up. Again, like everyone else, I thought it was because she was fired but after awhile, news came out that Sasha was the one who resigned from the show.
Now, she's back in Rizzoli and Isles, and I hope this time around she'll stick to see it come to fruition. I believe R&I has so much to offer. The show's very entertaining. Sasha's quirkiness brings laughter on the show and both her talent and beauty bring some sort of sophistication in the series.
I really liked Sasha as Kate. She played a wonderful role. She grew from the beginning until the end from a novice agent to a very good agent, but hadn't quit growing. How Tony got under her skin was very believable. She played a very strong woman but vulnerable at the same time. I was really upset when they killed her off (she left the show). I did like how they didn't immediately wipe their hands of her role, though. I thought that was tasteful. Glad to see she's starring in a new series in a couple weeks. I wasn't certain why she quit the NCIS series especially given how well she fit in with the rest of the gang. I hope the new show gives her a good forum for her talent.
NCIS is our fav. and we loved to see you with Gibbs and the rest of the wonderful team. How could you let someone kill you, Kate! ;) Every day, yes that is true, every day we see the new NCIS episodes we talk about you, Kate ... can Bellisario maybe... maybe let you wake up again? .. :)
We miss you and want you more.. much more..
PS.. by the way, is it tru you are married with the son of Sofia Loren? I adore her and I hope you'll be happy with her son and your kid.
Love ya.
Sasha Alexander is an amazing person and I completely disagree with what the last review says. I had the privilege of meeting Sasha in June 2005. When I first met her I hadn't seen any of her work so I was not looking at her in a star quality way. She was a wonderful person to chat to and she certainly wasn't "boo hoo"-ing over how much work she had. She simply fancied a change in direction and saw that what she was doing was effecting her quality family time. Now tell me that if you had the opportunity to try a new exciting opportunity in you life and/or be able to take a break to spend with your family...wouldn't you do that?? I know I would. She was a wonderful genuine person, not a quality that's in abundance anymore. Since meeting her I have religiously watched her work, particularly on NCIS, and find that her acting abilities are a joy to see. I think if we all sat here and childishly attacked people who have the great opportunities that someone like Sasha has we would all never leave our computers. I think Sasha is lucky to have the chances and opportunities that she has, she has earned them in her own way. And I think she has a right to lead her life as she chooses without being attacked for it...wouldn't that be nice!?!
I really don't understand what people think is so great about Sasha Alexander. She has turned out to be just another spoiled brat star. She complained about how much work NCIS was and about how boring it was to play the same character all of the time. What about the real NCIS agents. The people who only get to play one character in their entire life... THEMSELVES! I am sure they get really bored sometimes. However, they do their work to make a living, support their families, and protect the rest of us. It is too bad that she has so much money and so many opportunities that she can just up a quit a paying job.
One thing that I always like to see is, what have they done now. Haven't seen or heard of her lately. Must not be that big of a star.
