You mean the character?
Tamara - I hate that GA character - I think that they ruined her and I don't think that they had anyway to make her what she was so if she goes, I won't be unhappy.
Mal: That's not what I saw. You like to tell me what really happened? Book: I surely would. And maybe someday I will.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
I think it is still fixable, sumi, but I get where you are coming from.

I stopped watching GA. The Gizzy romance was too much for me. The final straw. I couldn't bear it, I didn't see any logic behind it, they had friend chemistry not lover chemistry so it wasn't believable. It might have been different if this were a 1-2 ep fling, but this TOOK OVER the whole show (as near as I can tell from watching from afar).
I think Heigl is a good actress generally, but after she powerfully lost her shit over Denny, I can't believe the writers decided to set her up with George so soon.

Exactly - they ruined her character by having her fall in love with George immediately after Denny dies and it is immediately because the crazy timeline of GA is so slow - i.e., I believe that the first 3 seasons are one year.

And you guys are proving my point, why would Heigl submit her name for emmy consideration when her storyline was ridiculous? She did the right thing.

I'm not against her - I'm against her character - I think Heigl would be better served moving on to other things.

Got it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'm with sumi, but I think Heigl's statement about the Emmy could have been better thought out. I think she should have just let it ride to see if she would have received a nom. I think it wasn't at all likely.

From what I understand, an actor (or their PR people) submit themselves. She had to make the decision whether to submit herself for consideration. She looked at what she had done in the last year and decided not to based on the fact that it simply wasn't good enough. So, there is no waiting around to see if she if she would be nominated without any effort on her part. I think she made the absolutely correct decision and I think her factual, blunt answer to why she didn't submit her name for consideration has been misconstrued. I applaud her bluntness and respect her more for it.

le nubian - re: Heroes casting: that character already has a name. I saw it on the IMDB plus the actor was in the "unaired pilot" with a character . .. with a name.
Damages: Mario Peebles will be recurring on the second season of the show.
