   Sounds like something Arnie would say in "Commando" ... ha!

   It is nice seeing them in shows I like (Emma as the cannibal witch in,   
   "Once Upon A Time"). Apart from that I usually don't seek them out   
   either. However I have watched movie clips (2 minutes of "Haunted High"   
   and 9 minutes of "Cruel Intentions") just to see one of the actors.   
      
   Note: I was NOT impressed by either of those movie clips.

   JM's performance in "Smallville" was nothing special but CC was great in   
   "Veronica Mars" as the gold-digger wife. I saw one ep of "H.I.M.Y.M" and   
   was not impressed. It was the one with Morena Baccarin, which is why I   
   watched it. Sadly, no nudies... :-D

               I watched SMG in 'Ringer'  and it was odd - each week I would   
   almost force my self to tune in, but the eps were pretty interesting, and   
   after each one I was glad I did.   
      
       Odd.   
      
           Lost interest in Crazy People after a few eps despite liking both   
   Robin and Sarah, just can't get into comedies.   
      
   Ditto for HIMYM - love Alyson and started watching pilot ep, but when she   
   wasn't on the screen I would lose interest and stopped watching after that   
   first ep.
