Blogzarro Q&A: Lucy Lawless 29 May 2007 -
Lucy Lawless has been proving that she’s much more
than a warrior princess. She showed the world she
could belt out tunes with the best of them after
placing second on last season’s “Celebrity Duets.”
She continued her brilliant role as the Cylon Number
Three on the third season of “Battlestar Galactica.”
And next up, she appears on Larry David’s “Curb Your
Enthusiasm,” voices Wonder Woman in the animated
movie “Justice League: The New Frontier,” and takes
her singing career a step further with three shows
in New York this weekend. It seems blondes really do
have more fun. We recently chatted with Lucy and she
gave us the scoop on a few things — including a
possible return to “Battlestar Galactica”; working
with Larry David; and doing a live-action Wonder
Woman movie.

Football Wives Fallout...
The outcry of
ABC's decision not to pick up Football Wives has been
met with disbelief (and not just from fans). There are
also some suggestions/rumours/chat that TPTB may be
trying to find a new home...keep your fingers crossed.
Lucy's
conspiracy theory isn't so out there since many people
are now voicing those same concerns. If ABC knew that
having this show would annoy the heck out of the NFL
(and it seems they have the NFL contract and the little
darlings are so thin skinned that they find a campy
drama too much for them...give me a break. Soccer didn't
have a problem with Footballer Wives)..why did it give
it a go ahead to film the pilot?
Something is
not quite right here. Either someone at ABC is beyond
dumb and heads will roll over this stupidity OR someone
at ABC decided to nab the show before anyone else got it
and thus they would have lost control...it just seems so
very very odd. I have zero knowledge of how it works in
Hollywood but to someone living on the other side of the
planet...it's just plain obscene about wasting so much
money. Spending millions on a pilot, hiring some great
actors and all that talent only to shelve it because
they got weak at the knees when the NFL got all uppity?
Didn't they know they had the NFL contract?
Check out the
following news sites:
-
Barry White's My Space Blog
on the non
pickup and his thoughts about working on the show
- Cyber Hermit ABC, NFL End FOOTBALL WIVES Season
Before It Begins
...Various sources are indicating that word
began filtering down to ABC
from the gods at the NFL that they were not pleased.
No, not pleased
at all. They did not think that a fictional
television show would
create a good image for the league. Yeah, forget the
fact that they
have non-fictional players getting busted for drug
use, spouse abuse,
assault, weapons charges and DUIs. No, the NFL
apparently was more
concerned about the fictional acts of fictional
characters in a
fictional television show. Word came from the gods
that they were
displeased enough that their displeasure might
influence future
football contracts for ABC and ESPN, the sports
sister of ABC. So, the
mere mortals of ABC grabbed their balls, tucked them
neatly into their
bags, broke their date with "Football Wives" and
cowered away....

was so sad to hear that this was going to be the final
season and I won't be getting my Gilmore fix. NO more
Lorelai, no more Rory, no more Luke, no more Sookie or
Michel or Lane or Emily or that absolutely delightful
Paris or kooky Kirk. No more Gilmore Girls.
I was also so glad that the show went out on a such a

- Lucy is "interviewed" by David

For
Aussie Fans - 10th Anniversary DVD Set and a chance to
win Xena's Sword
 Pre-order
the Xena Warrior Princess 10th Anniversary Collection
and you’ll automatically go in the chance to win a Xena
10th Anniversary Gold Accented Warrior Sword! We've
taken the beautiful warrior sword wielded by Xena
herself and given the pommel and cross a stunning gold
plate finish to celebrate 10 powerful years of "Xena:
Warrior Princess". This sword's true beginnings are not
known. There are stories, but we know that the true
origins vanished the moment Xena emerged, beaten and
dazed, from the physical and mental torture of Draco's
Gauntlet. The secrets are hers alone, but as you wield
this amazing Anniversary edition sword, you just might
get a glimpse into the sword's past. Xena's profound, if
not prophetic, words to Gabrielle are inscribed on the
blade, in gold—perhaps as a warning to us all. As with
each sword in the anniversary collection, the base of
the blade is etched with a line of character-specific
dialog, a detail that distinguishes it from any other in
the world. - Many thanks to Bradley for the news

Hollywood Reporter - 7 May 2007 -- ABC, which is
rumored to pick up four to six one-hour pilots, is
said to be proceeding with high-level staffing on
two dramas, "Pushing Daisies" and the untitled Jon
Feldman project -- a sign that the shows might be
joining the "Grey's Anatomy" spinoff on the schedule
next season. Also hot is drama "Marlowe," which
recently received an order for two additional
scripts and is now lining up series directors, as
well as "Dirty Sexy Money." "Cashmere Mafia," "Eli
Stone" and "Football Wives" also are believed to be
in contention. "Sam I Am," "Nice Girls Don't Get the
Corner Office," "The Thick of It" and "The Middle"
are getting buzz on the comedy side.

The following is from Jamester at the Xenaversity:
CONGRATULATIONS to Lucia and Ann! Their good

have already thanked Joan profusely and will do so
again and again and of course to everyone who makes

Lesbianation Poll Update
It seems Lucy is hanging on to #1 spot and Renee
cannot be budged from #2. The following was on the
lesbianation site:
- It looks like our voters
just love a sword-wielding breastplate clad babe,
since Xena’s ladies top our list for
another month. Ms. Lucy Lawless
continues to show her former sidekick Renee
O’Connor she’s the boss since she edged
O’Connor out a month ago and clung to the #1 spot
for another month.

"I've just received word that the edit of Football
Wives went well, and that ABC execs think they have
a hit on their hands. Of course, more market
research will help to determine that -- but usually
