Cold Case Cast Catch-up – May 2012

promo_002Another quick round-up of what is going on in the careers of the non-Kathryn members of the Cold Case cast.

Quite a lot has happened since our last update in February.

As covered previously Law & Order: SVU has been renewed for a 14th season so Danny Pino (Scotty Valens on Cold Case) will be returning as Detective Nick Amaro for his second season.  The final episode of Danny’s first season aired last night (23rd May 2012) in America.  I won’t be doing any further screencaps of Danny in L&O:SVU as our friends at Danny Pino Online are doing a great job of covering it.

In the last of these type of updates I mentioned that the multi-talented Tracie Thoms (Kat Miller on Cold Case) was due to star in a big film due out in September.  A trailer has been released for that film, Looper, and it actually has Tracie in it.  It is a very brief of as she, a waitress in a diner, gives Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception) an “oh la la”.  Whether Tracie’s role extends much beyond that is not known at this stage.  She is reasonably high up the cast list on IMDb and her character has a name: Beatrix.  Both of which are a step up from Safe House for her.  You can see a copy of the trailer HERE on YouTube.  Tracie appears at the 36 second mark.

98th? That’s Just Not Cricket!

57539_kmorris2Over at the Bleacher Report website ‘Featured Columnist’ Thomas Delatte has put a little list together. You know the sort of thing: a top 10 or 100 of the best/worst/favourite/most hated things in a particular category.

Such lists are, of course, very subjective and prone to some odd entries based purely on the preferences of the writer.  This particular list stretches the whole idea to near breaking point though.

Thomas’s list is titled The 100 Hottest Sports Babes from Movies and TV.  Skipping past the rather un-PC “babes” we find a list of 100 actress that have starred in… you’ll never guess… movies and TV with sports-related themes.

I can’t really quibble with the ladies chosen or the order they’ve been placed in as it is down to the writer’s own tastes, though obviously I do have something of an issue with Kathryn’s lowly 98th place 😕

Kathryn earns her spot on the list based on having a role in Resurrecting The Champ, a film with some boxing in it.  Her female co-stars Teri Hatcher and Rachel Nichols also make the list, though somewhat higher up.  Teri at 72 (26 higher, really?) and Rachel makes the top 5.

My beef with the list relates to its title and the incredibly loose interpretation of movies and TV shows in the sports genre going far beyond the odd rogue entry.  The title “Sports Babes…” implies that the women are playing sports stars themselves, which in most cases they are not.  Few would argue that Invictus and Days Of Thunder are sports movies but The Love Guru?  OK, there’s a hockey player but it strikes me as just an excuse to shoe-horn Jessica Alba in.  Thomas must feel that he is on shaky ground with Fight Club as he has to stress that it is a sports movie.  It’s not.  And I’d put Jerry Maguire (which doesn’t star Kathryn, despite what some biogs say) on a similar level to Resurrecting The Champ (which does) in regard to the sporting content.  Yes, sports are the background to them but they are not really sports films.  If Kathryn’s scenes had made into Moneyball then things could have been different.  Her beach volleyball scenes in Pensacola: Wings Of Gold might have been more appropriate.  Quite why I’m arguing for Kathryn to be struck from the list I’m not sure 😕

Anyway, the whole thing is very tenuous.  Much like this post :-)

And there are no cricket themed movies in the list either.

Cold Case S01E01 – Look Again HD Screencaps

Cold_Case_S01E01_lilly_387KM UK’s Summer of HD 2012 gets off to a damp start.  Entirely appropriate for an English summer :-)

Yes, for 2012 we are going back to the very beginning, back to Cold Case season 1.  Did you guess correctly?

In the very first episode, Look Again, after visiting a fresh crime scene Detective Lillian Rush gets involved in solving an old case from 1976, and she’s not best pleased about it.

Looking again (see what I did there?) at this pilot episode you can see that the show did not quite have the structure we became so familiar with.  The flashbacks are very brief and it is wall-to-wall Lilly (a good thing :-) ) with Kathryn in practically every scene.

Also, Danny Pino’s makeup artist must have been different because he looks so different :-)  I joke of course.  Justin Chambers starred as Det. Chris Lassing in 3 of the first 4 episodes.  We don’t get introduced to Scotty Valens until later in the season.

398 HD (720p) new Lilly screencaps and an updated promo image from Look Again can now be found in the Gallery.

Living The Life Of Riley

006Actor, singer-songwriter, and one of Kathryn’s co-stars in the short film Sunday’s Mother, Riley Smith has done an interview with the website Honest Reviews Corner.

The interview is primarily about the music side of Riley’s career with his band “The Life Of Riley” and their new album “By The Way”.  However, one of the questions regards Riley attending the Newport Beach Film Festival, host to the première of Sunday’s Mother.  Here is what he had to say when asked what the event was like:

I’ve been to the festival before.  It was fun.  I did a short film called ‘Sunday’s Mother’ for a really great producer and director.  I played Kathryn Morris’s love interest.  She was fantastic.  I think the movie turned out great.  It was fun to watch everyone else’s shorts.  There were like 8 shorts shown as a whole screening of shorts.  It was really moving.  As an artist, I loved being able to support other movie makers.

Don’t you just hate some talented and successful people 😉

It is only a brief mention but it’s the only one we’ve found so far.  The interview in full can found at the Honest Reviews Corner website HERE.  I don’t know who conducted the interview but thanks to them.

3 Today!

Happy Birthday to us! Happy Birthday to us! Happy Birthday to us!

It was 9am (BST) on the 18th of May 2009 when a dark corner of the Internet got a little bit brighter.  Yes, KM UK has reached the grand old age of 3.

It’s been an interesting journey so far.  We started shortly before Cold Case was renewed for its 7th, and ultimately final season, which was not a given by any stretch of the imagination.  We’ve seen new film roles for Kathryn, neither of which hit the big screen.  One of which only only of sort made it to the small screen.  Production companies have come and gone.  And there has been a decreasing number of public appearances.  But we still have plenty to do here on KM UK and we hope you will join us.

We don’t often blow our own trumpets but it’s our party and we’ll cry if we want to.  Here are a few site stats to wow you with:

  • 554 articles posted (this is number 554), that’s equivalent to one every 2 days!
  • More then 3280 comments posted, an average of 6 per post
  • Hundreds of hits per day
  • Regular visitors from all over the world

And some numbers for the Gallery:

  • 45,000 images and it is growing all the time
  • Almost 900 albums
  • Over 520 registered users
  • 385,000 image hits

Thank you to everyone, friends both old and new, that has contributed in the past 12 months to help make this site such a big success.  Thank you.

A quick word for the spammers of this world:  Try as your bots might none of the 33,500+ messages they have tried to post here these past 3 years have ever appeared on this site.  Not a single one  :-)

Anyone want cake?  Well get me some then :-)
