I’m feeling very high-tech! That last post inspired me to find more clips on the internet… this is too easy!? Here’s a quick snapshot from the 90210 spot I did recently– I come on around minute five…


VIDEO: Watch Ghost Whisperer- Episode 5:21- “Dead Ringer”

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010 At Work, Video Comments Off

So one of my oldest, dearest friends asked me to post the GW episode I recently guest-starred in because she ‘totally forgot’ to watch it (apparently being a mother 3 beautiful girls all under the age of 4 keeps her busy or something!?)  AKA I-don’t-know-how-she-does-it-and-am-totally-in-awe!!! I must give credit to YOUTUBE for making this so easy, despite the fact that no one gets any residuals (but who wants to embark on that sad debate!?)  Anyway- below are the links to watch the episode, which is divided into 5 chronological parts…  Enjoy!

  1. PART ONE: GW EPISODE 5:21
  2. PART TWO: GW EPISODE 5:21
  3. PART THREE: GW EPISODE 5:21
  4. PART FOUR: GW EPISODE 5:21
  5. PART FIVE: GW EPISODE 5:21

And, thanks for watching. Then and now…


VIDEO: The Whole Truth- pilot clip!

Below is a reposting of an article by Rick Porter:

The Whole Truth’ clips: ABC’s legal drama looks at both sides

What you see may not be what you get with ABC’s new legal drama “The Whole Truth.”

That’s not because of any inherent sneakiness within the show — although it is a courtroom drama, so it’s reasonable to expect some twists and turns in its cases. But after the pilot was shot and ABC decided to pick it up for fall, star Joely Richardson (“Nip/Tuck”) decided to drop out of the show so she could spend more time with her family. The network will be recasting Richardson’s part, a prosecutor who frequently squares off with her former law-school classmate (Rob Morrow), who’s now a defense lawyer.

The hook for “The Whole Truth,” which was created by Tom Donaghy (“Without a Trace”) is that it will show both the prosecution and defense preparing and presenting its case, with the goal of keeping the audience guessing about who’s on the right side. The cast also includes Eamonn Walker, Sean Wing, Anthony Ruvivar and Christine Adams.

“The Whole Truth” will air at 10 p.m. ET Wednesdays on ABC in the fall. Take a look:


M & R: 2010 Pilot Updates

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010 At Work, Musings and Reflection Comments Off

This week the UPFRONTS are taking place in NYC… which is when all the major networks announce which TV pilots they are picking up for the fall (or midseason) schedule. Having been involved with two completely different pilots this year, I am pleased to share that BOTH “Bleep My Dad Says” and “The Whole Truth” have been picked up for series– on CBS and ABC, respectively. Both shows were well-written, well-cast, well-directed– and I feel very blessed to have worked on each, regardless of the outcome– which for me, unfortunately, has been rather bittersweet… I think it’s best summed up like this:

“Life’s not always fair.

Sometimes you can get a splinter even sliding down a rainbow.”

~Cherralea Morgen

So what happened? In a nutshell, CBS has decided to “retool” the pilot– and rewrite the character of one of the 2 sons on “Bleep My Dad Says”– and sadly, since my character was an extension of the one they are replacing… my character no longer exists. I played the younger son’s best friend and future love interest, and while a version of that character may be brought to life one day down the line in the NEW son-character’s life… there is no way of telling, right now, without having that new guy written or cast, who will be the right person to star opposite him. It’s definitely a tough pill to swallow, but that is show biz, and I certainly have been taught (after many years in this crazy biz!) that there are no guarantees, other than that there are no guarantees… and one should always be prepared to expect the unexpected. My heart is thrilled for the rest of the cast and crew however, who are nothing short of awesome, and with whom I hope to work again someday! So fingers crossed in that arena.

And as far as “The Whole Truth” goes– they are recasting the lead actress in that series as well (reposting an article about that in a sec!) However, am feeling positive about this news (admittedly the other news got me nervous!) since my part in this show is connected to the role of the Defense Attorney (whereas she played the Prosecutor)– so am thinking my character’s team should not really be affected…  Anyway, am looking forward to growing in the recurring role of Rhonda, as this series develops!

Until then, I am very thankful for everyone’s support…  and, of course, will continue to pound the pavement for every job opportunity I can get! I wonder how many other careers out there entail so much of their job being dedicated to GETTING A JOB, but I digress :) and leave you with a couple more quotes, which pretty much sum up how I feel today…

The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same.

Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.”

Don Williams, Jr.

RERUN: CSI: LAS VEGAS- Killer #6.14

Monday, May 10th, 2010 At Work Comments Off

This week a rerun of the CSI episode I shot several years ago will be playing on Spike TV. This was a pretty cool episode since it was the first time CSI told the story from the perspective of the KILLER (played by William Sadler!) I had an incredible experience working on this show, which was one of the few during the season they actually shot on location in Las Vegas.

CHARITY: William Shatner’s Charity Horse Show

Sunday, May 2nd, 2010 Service Comments Off

Last night, I had the honor of attending (the charismatic, inspiring, and all around fantastic) William Shatner’s Charity Horse Show with the writers, producers, and fellow cast members of our current CBS pilot “Bleep My Dad Says” at the L.A. Equestrian Center. Not only did I have a wonderful time (which included being mesmerized as Sarah McLachlan performed live right in front of us, and yes, she sounded amazing live!) but I also learned about some great charities that I can’t help tell you about below… Please feel free to share and support if they move you the way they did me… and click here to go to Mr. Shatner’s website to learn even more!

Ahead with Horses is an organization that works with handicapped children by using equine-therapy to help them learn to adjust to their challenging lives and become more mobile. The stories of these children—some of whom suffer from autism and many of whom have such severe physical handicaps that they can’t even walk—will inspire you.  Every day, Ahead With Horses works to maximize the potential of disabled, disadvantaged and special-needs children by providing the opportunity to experience the measurable improvement – physically, mentally, socially and emotionally – that can give them the chance to be a child.

Camp Max Straus: For many other young children of all races and denominations, the struggle to have a safe and happy childhood is an overwhelming challenge.  Camp Max Straus offers both a traditional summer camp program and High Sierra backpacking to underprivileged children in Los Angeles County.  They participate in evening campfires, hands-on ranch and garden programs, archery, swimming, horseback riding, drama, music, crafts and so much more.  Almost 50,000 children have benefited since 1938, regardless of their ability to pay.

Sunday, May 2nd, 2010 At Work Comments Off

I can finally tell you! I am the new voice of Artemis.  I couldn’t be more excited… this is truly a dream job.

Here’s the official press release:

YOUNG JUSTICE is an all-new series produced by Warner Bros. Animation and based upon the characters from DC Comics. In YOUNG JUSTICE, being a teenager means proving yourself over and over – to peers, parents, teachers, mentors and, ultimately, to yourself. But what if you’re not just a normal teenager? What if you’re a teenage super hero? Are you ready for life or death rites of passage? Are you ready to join the ranks of the great heroes and prove you’re worthy of the Justice League? The members of Young Justice—Robin, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Superboy, Miss Martian and Artemis—are about to find out.
