Jeri Ryan is an attractive actress. But she brings realism to roles in shows that often lack it. ...Continue »
I've only seen her in Star Trek, and two episodes of Two and a Half Men.

She can be very good and reliable character in Star Trek. But what I really like about this actress is her performance in Two and a Half Men.

That show is a horrible show, however she brings so much to her roles. She's the only person I've ever seen in that show actually laugh. And it felt so real. Sure, some of the writing ruins this actress, but she brings so much to a role. She actually made a crap show watchable. Her talent super seeded the unrealistic nature of Two and a Half Men, and actually made it feel a little real.

Beautiful woman and great actress. Even if I think her acting after ST Voyager was pretty much always looking like what she was doing on the show, she is still a great actress.

Wow!! I think that sums it all up! What better word to describe Jeri Ryan is there!? I mean really, she's got it all: looks, talent, brains... in other words she's perfect! And when u add the fact that her ageing hasn't influenced her looks in the least, you realize she's not only the perfect actress but the perfect woman too! She's pushing 40 and I'm not ashamed to say i find her more attractive than girls my age! You might think that I have a thing for older women, but I actually dont! It also has nothing to do with her social status, its just physical attraction twards a very beautiful woman! I think her ex husband Jack Ryan is a fool for letting her go! Women like this are so rare they should be regarded as an "endangered specie"!

Excellent actress combined with beauty ...Continue »
I've been watching her since her first appearance in Star Trek voyager, playing Seven of Nine, the borg drone separated from the collective, she acted so well in that role, it's hard not to show emotion, then growing up more human.

When Voyager season ended she moved to Boston Public and did a very good job there as one of the teachers, I was hooked with that series since she arrived to lighten up the place.

Too bad she's never had a leading role, I think she will do an excellent job at it, we hope to see her more often in TV and not as a guest star or secondary actress..

Go Jeri!

Yes, she's pretty, and I'll admit that I have seen her in a few roles that I thought she did very well in ... unfortunately where Star Trek: Voyager is concerned - she was seriously overused.

I can understand that she was dating producer B. Braga at the time, and he probably wanted to make his little girlfriend happy, but c'mon did the final seasons have to turn into the 7of9 hour?? It got old fast, and made me incredibly sick of her.
