Kathryn @ CC Promo Event In Tokyo – June 2007

“Wow” I hear you say. And say it you should, though “WOWOW” would be more appropriate

So far in our look back to Kathryn’s public appearances in 2007 we’ve covered a variety of recurring and often interlinking topics. This time we introduce two more: Cold Case and Japan.

Although both of those themes are different from those we’ve discussed before (motorsport, Resurrecting The Champ and the Monte Carlo TV festival) it still sort of ties-in. This is like a festival, it’s about TV and the car Kathryn drove in Long Beach (a Toyota) was Japanese.

In early summer of 2007, 29th of June to be precise, Kathryn was in Tokyo to promote Cold Case on the WOWOW TV network in Japan. In case you are unable to I’ve read what it says on the end of those cardboard file boxes pictured behind Kathryn and deduced that they are talking about Cold Case season 3. I know, I’m a fricking genius!

What can I say about that outfit? OK, let me re-phrase that. What can I say about that outfit that won’t get me in trouble? Kathryn, of course, looks stunning in her almost lighter-than-air pink dress, brown and green scarf(?), and strappy silver shoes, but it is those legs that really steal the show. Wowowza! I’m not sure that the very short dress was chosen with the knowledge that she’d sitting on a high stool on a stage though. If any of our Japanese readers were sitting in the front row and had their cameraphone with them please contact me 😉 Seriously. Call me!

Amazingly this event has evaded the KM UK Gallery since opening but we’ve put that right in style today with 48 medium-sized photos added to the Gallery. We still have a huge amount of other updates planned.

If you’d like to see that outfit in action you can see brief clips of Kathryn entering the venue for this event at the beginning of several videos we have of promotional interviews she did for WOWOW TV. They are in the Gallery here. We have rabi to thank for them.

Cold Case Cast Catch-up – Feb 2012

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

First up, Danny. As we all know he’s on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. It seems to be going well for him and fellow newcomer Kelli Giddish. Joining a long established show, effectively replacing a much loved character and actor cannot have been easy. I’m sure that some die-hard fans will not accept such a change but from what I’ve read the audience figures are strong and many do seem to like the contribution Danny and Kelli have made so far. There is no news on other work by Danny to report on at this time.

Who’s next?

Kathryn @ Toyota Pro/Celeb Race – April 2007

We return to our multi-stranded theme of updates covering Kathryn’s public appearances in 2007.

This time the chosen event only takes in just one of the subjects that seemed to dominate the year: motorsport.

Each April the Grand Prix Of Long Beach, a weekend of motorsport headlined by the IndyCar Series, has a special Toyota Pro/Celebrity race in aid of charities supporting local children’s hospitals. Amazingly this has been going since the 70s. As the name suggests the household names from TV and film compete against established racers from a variety of disciplines of motorsport. The cars they use are near-standard Toyota road cars. The celebs are given training prior to being let loose around the California street circuit on race day.

In 2007 Kathryn was invited to take part in the race along with, amongst others, tennis superstar Martina Navratilova, Emily Proctor (CSI: Miami), Kelly Hu (Martial Law), Aisha Tyler (Friends), Robin Quivers (Howard Stern), George Lucas (Star Wars) and Kendra Wilkinson (Girls Next Door). As you can see there were a significant number of women in the field that year. At the end of the 8 lap race Kathryn finished in 13th (of 17) which is the same position she started in, which shows sensible consistency.

The race formed part of an episode of the freak show that was “Girls Next Door” featuring Kendra Wilkinson, which we dealt with over 2 years ago here on KM UK.

For this update we have added 19 photos to the Gallery of various sizes and quality. The NAPA 200 event update a few weeks ago was headlined by a special photo by Eric Gilbert. This time we are grateful Eric again, this time for allowing us to use two great photos by Earl Ma, also of Motorsport.com. You can see the pair of images showcased above. Sadly, Earl passed away a few weeks after the 2007 event.

Revival House Trademark Published

revival_house_official_gazette_430x195

There it is (edited slightly for the sake of saving space). Buried on page 1078 of a 1658 page long PDF document. Boy that was a dull 1077 pages! What? ‘Search’ you say? Curious…

That is the entry for Revival House, Kathryn’s new production company, as it appears in the USPTO Official Gazette, the fortnightly publication detailing new trademarks up for opposition.

Now there is a 30 day wait (from the 14th of Feb 2012 date of the document’s release) for people to register their opposition.

If my understanding is correct (and I’ve proven before it could easily not be) a further 8 weeks beyond that date a registration certificate will be issued. Then the mark has to be used within 6 months and a statement to that effect filed with the USPTO.

To liven up this not-so-exciting process here is a countdown timer to the end of that 30 day period. I’ve chosen 9am LA time (PST) on the day in question (15th March 2012) as the zero hour.

Katie’s Video Contest

Creator of the KM UK promo video Katie is running a little contest to come up with ideas for future videos. In return for a suggestion you might get a cookie, and who doesn’t like cookies? 😀

If you make it Kathryn-themed we could post it in the KM UK Fan Art Gallery!

So you know how to contact Katie she’s made a video with details and put it on her KathrynMorrisFTW YouTube channel.
