The other Washington

Isaiah Washington still pissed over his firing...

http://www.www.tvsquad.com/2007/06/13/isaiah-washington-blames-the-media-for-his-firing/

Okay, I never watched a single episode of Gray's Anatomy, but I've heard all the controversy over Washington's Don Imus moment. Isaiah keep digging a deeper hole with every statement he said afterwards, and I couldn't believe he just couldn't just shut up about it.

((I have to say... after reading the interview with Washington, I still found him to be smug and to not comprehend that HE. WAS. WRONG. He says he's made apologies to everyone and he has done everything the network has asked. But, does he realize that he is intolerant? I see no remorse.))

There's an air of arrogance in every interview he's given since. I was a little jealous because he spent all that screen time with Sandra Oh. I guess he can always do Exit Wounds 2 or Romeo Must Die II.

Yes, he's done some movie stinkers, and Gray's was his critical jump up.

Update: Sorry, it's Grey's Anatomy.

He seemed so nicely to have gone out of his typical roles and then he F's up, his head shot up way before he himself did

Yep, he waited and did some bad minor movies, and worked hard to get to this point, but his ego got the best of him. I think he’s a good actor, and deserves bigger roles, but he needs to keep his ego in check.

We’ll have to see how this will affect him later on.

wow so you guys think he F'd himself up. Granted i think it's wrong to be intolerant but do you think he's really deserved the amount of persecution he's being given? When is enough... well actually enough?

I think he has because he kept making statements and shooting himself in the foot every time. After it all blew up he should have made on short statement and not talked about it again. But he kept feeding the News Sharks over and over.

I think there are elements in Hollywood that are going to make it difficult for him to work, which is ashame.

lol, thanks for the correction, on the Grey's part. I get the othere one stuck in my head,

Mayren, you're right, he didn't deserve so much treatment, but he got sucked into it and felt the need to prove himself out of it, that was his actual mistake

Shannon Fill: Where is she now? (Ensign Sito Jaxa)

Shannon Fill:   Where is she now? SF has been reviewing TNG seasons o ver at his blog. And, the episode Lower Decks came up. I recently watched Lower Decks on Net-flicks and found myself amazed with the performance from the young and lovely Shannon Fill , who played the character Ensign Sito Jaxa. Jaxa showed up in two episodes of TNG, actually they were two important episodes.   There was a nice arc to her character too.   Her character was killed off in Lower Decks , but there were plans to bring her back for an episode of DS9. From Memory Alpha , ((One story considered by the writing staff concerned the return of  Sito Jaxa  from  TNG : " Lower Decks ". The pitch had Sito being imprisoned under inhumane conditions and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.  Robert Hewitt Wolfe  developed the story for some time. Feeling that there was insufficient explanation of Sito's condition, he had Sito killing her cellmate, whom she'd become cl...

a U of L cheerleader gets into a little bit of trouble...

Image
The Internet can be a dangerous place, and things that you did with that camera can come back to ruin your life. A very attractive University of Louisville cheerleader by the name of Becca Manns took some pictures of herself naked and also having sex with a dude. Either her memory stick or camera was stolen, and the theft uploaded the graphic photos onto the World Wide Web. That was when the shit hit the fan (Louisville Fan). She ended up having to leave the program and probably school. (I am currently enrolled in UofL as well, but you won't find any photos of me.) I sort of feel sorry for her because she did one crazy thing, and now it has ruined her life. However, I have to say this to her: You were given a chance to do something many people would never get a chance to do, go to an University. You have to learn fairly quickly that every action good or bad has consequences. Exposing yourself probably wasn't good for your career or your life. (James steps off his ...

Bernie Mac RIP

Bernie Mac is Dead A bit of upsetting news... ((CHICAGO (AP) — Bernie Mac, the actor and comedian who teamed up in the casino heist caper "Ocean's Eleven" and gained a prestigious Peabody Award for his sitcom "The Bernie Mac Show," died Saturday at age 50. )) I remember watching him on Def Comedy Jam , where he really broke out. If you get a chance, check out some of his earlier work on that show. I think he was able to really shine in some of the roles he took in his movie career. He seemed to always play the creepy guy that wore bad clothes and talk in strange patterns. Friday : He was great in this limited role. He played Pastor Clever, the horny Pastor. Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood : He played the self-racist cop. What a great moment. Get on the Bus : Another good role, but limited. Ocean's Eleven : He had a few moments to shine in this role, plus third film too. Bad Santa : Very ...
