Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Well, she's very pretty. In an Inara's-Little-Sister kind of way. Evidently they were looking for eyecandy rather than thespian skills...and, to be fair, this is what got Tom Welling cast. So I can live with it.
And by live, of course, I mean porn.

Love interests tend to get cast by the hotness of the actress' looks. Quirky supporting characters tend to get cast by personality and acting ability. The latter are almost always more interesting than the former, though not necessarily more popular.
I checked imdb and the chick who plays Lois will be 28 this year. And she looks it.
I can't see why one wouldn't include chemistry in a love interest casting process.
KK frightens me. I suspect she may be a robot, because no human being has skin that smooth.

I thought that's how Michael Rosenbaum got cast.
I'm now imagining Lana as played by Kismet.
and it CONTINUALLY amazing me that Kristin Kruek is the only actress who read for Lana.
Really? Wow. I hadn't heard that before.
I would have thought if you were going to go with someone who had a physical appearance different than the classic depiction of the character (dark eyed brunette versus light-eyed redhead) it would have been after seeing a bunch of different actors and deciding that this one was right for the job, physical discrepancy aside.

Oh, come on, it's just a natural result of her using Noxema or Neutragena or whatever N-brand skin crap she was shilling for awhile.
Well, she's very pretty.
That's the thing -- she is very pretty, and the character's very nice, but... at least when I was watching, it seems like that's all they'd thought of for the character -- "Let's make her pretty and really nice!" That's not a character.
