Gotabite 0 Posted October 19, 2004 I was wondering if anyone else saw Jeri Ryan last night in the hit series 2 1/2 men? While it was great to see Jeri on TV again' I personally did not like the role she played..........a woman who only wanted to have sex with the leading character. Jeri, is a very attractve and talented actress. And personally I'd prefer to see her in roles more fitting to her acting ability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted October 24, 2004 I agree. It was just a ploy to get ratings. What is with the obsession with sex? I know sex sells, but on primetime tv? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gotabite 0 Posted October 28, 2004 I agree that it was to increase the ratings.......But I don't think it enhanced Jeri's marketability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt 0 Posted March 25, 2005 I haven't seen the episode but I think Jeri Ryan has been one of the most successful actors since they left their Star Trek show. There haven't been many others whom have done well - Jeri Ryan, Patrick Stewart, Armin Shimmerman, William Shatner, there's probably others, maybe I'll post a topic about this.

trekz 7 Posted March 26, 2005 I think it is very ironic that Jeri Ryan would take such a role since her ex-husband had to withdraw from his campaign for the Illinois senate last year because of a sex scandal. The scandal - to sumarize it briefly - involved her being upset when her husband took her to some sex clubs, where she refused to participate. The point was that she was not a sexual object. For her to then be in a role where she is highly sexual just seems wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a side note, I think is the first post I have made in the Voyager Forum!! :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeybear 0 Posted March 28, 2005 WELCOME!!! to the Captain of the Acclaim!!! uhm, hear-hear 'bout Jeri Ryan and her success - as an aside, did anyone know that our good Captain Janeway was nominated for a Toni for her portrayal, in a one woman show, of Katherine Hepburn??? of course you did... uhm, back to the point (topic), uhm, i think it is a SCREAM that ms. ryan walked about in that camel-lipped excuse for a second skin, and then balked at a sex-club - the irony kills me... then again, i would balk at a sex-club, which might surprise some (ahem) - i guess you can't judge a book by it's cover - or it's avatar...

athena28 2 Posted April 11, 2005 Funny, b/c posts I read elsewhere seemed to think it was encouraging she got the part as she's in her late thirties & those roles often go to very young women. I missed it but doubt it would've bothered me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
