Fan Art Update – April 2016

It’s been quite a long time since I did a dedicated fan art update.  There have been a few event specific posts (Kathryn’s birthday for instance) which included the work of our readers since the last one.

The lack of recent posts does not mean KM UK is closed to fan art submissions.  Oh no.  Perish the thought.

By way of an update and a reminder that the door is always open here is a small collection of new Kathryn-themed avatars courtesy of long standing friend of the KM UK site Gina.  Thank you Gina for your continued support.

Check out the Fan Art section of the KM UK Gallery to see the many hundreds of existing avatars, banners, drawings and videos created by fans of Kathryn and offered for hosting right here.  It’s a great source inspiration and raw materials for whatever you choose to make. And there is always the option to expand the types as requested.

If you have made some Kathryn-related Fan Art and want to share it with other fans here on KM UK please contact me.

Pin A Label On The Dress

Cold_Case_S07E15_lilly_266An original element of Cold Case‘s USP was that Lilly Rush (Kathryn, obviously) was always dressed quite simply and her hair style was very matter-of-fact.  Unlike in many similar shows Lilly was a cop first and foremost and not a catwalk model with a completely different outfit in every scene.  She didn’t want to spend hours in front of a mirror every day only to be stuck in the interrogation room (which ironically had a massive two-way mirror in it) or chasing down suspects all over Philly.  However, the hairdo became the focus of much discussion despite being designed not to be.

This trait of Lilly’s was carried over into her personal life as we saw in the episode Revolution (S02E14) when the two Rush sisters met for dinner and Lilly was wearing what could well have been her prom dress.  It was not a good look: a red thing with boxy shoulders.  We were left to imagine Lilly getting ready for that meal and realising that she had nothing to wear other than her regular work suits.

But, much like many a possible on-going story line this thread was dropped when it came to the Two Weddings (S07E15) episode of the show.  It opened with the shot of a stocking, high-heel-wearing pair of legs stepping across a threshold.  Two everyone’s surprise, as the camera panned up we saw it was the dressed-to-the-nines, looking like a million dollars Lilly!  Yowza!  (Eyes out on stalks emoji!)

Lilly and co. were attending the wedding of their colleague Louie and our leading lady had clearly spent her years of unused wardrobe budget in one hit on the shoes, dress and coat.

still_002Why I am telling you all this?  Well, because visitor to this site Susana recently asked about the dress.  The question reminded me that despite much discussion at the time we never found out if it could be attributed to a particular designer or brand.  Plus, it was nice to revisit this episode again.

still_003A few months after Two Weddings aired in the US Kathryn attended a charity event in which she modelled a ‘Tresor de Vintage’ dress which had some similarities.  It was green and knee length.  That’s always had me wondering if the Two Weddings dress was from the same stable.  As an aside Kathryn’s Colony co-star Sarah Wayne Callies was also there that day.

So, my question is can you put a name to the dress?

As a sweetener I’ve added a couple more stills from the episode to The Gallery.

The Perfect Guy UK DVD Released

dvd_box_001Looks like I’ll have to file this one under ‘Old News’…

In all the excitement I managed to miss the release of the thriller The Perfect Guy on DVD in the UK earlier this month.  The 14th of March to be more precise.

To be fair to me the Sony Pictures UK website doesn’t seem to list the film.  Even the official YouTube channel for the conglomerate’s division only added the trailer in the past few days.

There doesn’t seem to be an accompanying Blu-ray option for those that prefer to do their film watching at home in full HD.  Some of you may be able to take advantage of releases elsewhere in the world, region coding allowing.

The DVD release of The Perfect Guy is available on the UK version of the Amazon website HERE.

Ithe_perfect_guy_on_set_001n the way of a sweetener for the laxity in bringing this news to you I have added a new photo (as shown on the right) to the KM UK Gallery.  It is of Kathryn on the set of the film with the director David M Rosenthal and the child actor Duncan Joiner.  Duncan plays Zach, the son of Kathryn’s character, who appears in the opening scene and helps set the ball rolling by making Sanaa Lathan’s Leah think about having a child of her own, but her then boyfriend (Morris Chestnut) is unwilling to commit.

Colony S01E09 – Zero Day HD Screencaps

Colony_S01E09_123I’m no expert on body language or reading people’s moods, women especially are a mystery (that’s why we love you so), but in the above image I’m sensing a certain amount of anger.

To round up this week in Colony for Charlotte (Kathryn), she:

  • Tried to further humiliate/punish Maddie (Amanda Righetti, The Mentalist) for breaking ‘the rules’, even though it is not clear she did
  • Found out that Maddie could be of further use
  • Suggested to Maddie that she would be rewarded for her loyalty
  • Got caught out defying the ‘hosts’ to line her own nest
  • Was thrown under the bus by her own husband Nolan (Adrian Pasdar, Heroes)
  • Attempted to drop Maddie in it to Proxy Snyder (Peter Jacobson, House)
  • Was taken away by the authorities

All in a week’s work for an art curator then.

Yes, as we saw in the sneak peek video from the other day things do not look good for Charlotte in her final appearance in this season of Colony, the USA network sci-fi-ish drama series.  Her longest screen time yet.  There is only one episode left to go.

After Maddie used her knowledge of a largely secret art collection in LA to regain her position with Charlotte she, knowing that it would ingratiate herself even more, arranged for one of the key paintings to be put to one side and kept off the official list.  For some reason the ruling alien race want to keep the pretty stuff for themselves.  So why was Charlotte still there?  😉

We didn’t see how it happened but someone (Maddie being the obvious source) tipped-off Snyder about Charlotte’s hoarding and he came with the troops in tow.  The unlisted painting was found by the ‘Redhats’ and Nolan agreed it should not have been there.  Charlotte blamed Maddie who described herself as “just an assistant” when asked who she was.  That sealed Charlotte’s fate.

No Kathryn in next week’s season finale but the show is set for a second, slightly longer, season, we know the ‘factory’ is not necessarily the end, and Charlotte is an established part of the Colony universe so they could still bring her back next year.

Either way, it was good to see Kathryn return to the small screen, even if it was in a relatively minor role.  Plus, we got to see that smile a bit in this episode.  Thank you to the people behind Colony for making that happen.

And, we didn’t get to see the more casual looking Charlotte in the scene shown in a couple of the promo photos released for episode seven.  There’s a deleted scene out there…

There are now 132 HD (720p) screencaps of Kathryn in the episode “Zero Day” of Colony in the Gallery.

Charlotte’s Web Unspun – Colony ep9 Sneak Peek Video

Colony_S01E09_sneak_peek_014Things are not looking good for Charlotte in the next episode of Colony, which airs tomorrow night (10th March) in the USA network in… the US of A.

Colony_S01E09_sneak_peekA just-released sneak peek video shows Charlotte Burgess’s (Kathryn) hoarding of precious works of art, as discovered by Maddie (Amanda Righetti, The Mentalist) last week, being the cause of her downfall.  Hubby Nolan (Adrian Pasdar, Heroes) is not going to take the fall for her either it seems.

This does not bode well for Charlotte/Kathryn making it to the already announced season two of Colony.  Though, regular viewers of the show found out last week that the dreaded ‘factory’ may not be the end of the road most of us assumed.  But would the socialite art dealer cope there?

A small copy of the video, and some (not so great) screencaps from it, is now in the KM UK Gallery for your enjoyment.

Is it too late to say “Spoiler Alert!”?
