directions:

.......to illustrate that lots of actors seem drawn to sf/fantasy, and lots of these shows tend to use actors that have been on other sf/fantasy shows.

I've noticed, as I'm sure many of you have, that a lot of actors tend to show up over and over again in various scifi/fantasy/speculative fiction projects. It's always fascinated me, and while I know that sometimes it's a matter of location and being offered a job, I honestly believe that some actors just prefer genre shows.

So ... here's my idea. Pick an actor from a genre TV show or movie. Name one show they're in. The next person names a person who's also been in that show, and then names ANOTHER genre show the actor's been in, etc., etc.


For example ...

Start (1st poster): Lani Tupu - Farscape

2nd poster: Farscape - Claudia Black - Xena

3rd poster: Xena - Victoria Pratt - Cleopatra 2525


Shows/movies and actors can be used more than once.

I hope this makes sense to everyone. It's kind of like the six degrees of Kevin Bacon, except it's all genre stuff, and as many degrees as we can make it.
