We'll i was watching Sienfield the other day and i noticed that Adiel Niska was Pensky from one of the episodes, and wash was in dodgeball... and it got me wondering, have u seen these characters from firefly in any other movies or tv shows....

(excluding joss whedon productions)

Check out www.imdb.com . That is where you can find all kinds of cool stuff on any TV or movie actor that you can think of. They also have info. on every movie you could ever think of, including upcoming projects like 'Serenity'.

Well, Michael Fairman (Niska) was Adlai Stevenson in "Thirteen Days."

Jewel Staite was on a couple of episodes of "Are You Afraid Of The Dark," where I remembered her for years without knowing her name, and then she was on "Space Cases."

I saw our Captain Nathan Fillion on some movie a week or so ago, no idea what it was. He also played the wrong Private Ryan in "Saving Private Ryan."

Adam Baldwin was in "Full Metal Jacket." Word.

Ron Glass was on "Barney Miller," of which I've only seen part of the first season. I know where Shepherd Book got to know so much about law enforcement, though!

I later recognized Carlos Jacott (Agent Dobson in "Serenity") in a small part in "Being John Malkovich." And Tom Towles (the surly drunk at the beginning of "The Train Job" who notices the brownish-color of Mal's coat) played Harry Cooper in the remake of "Night Of The Living Dead."

Yes she was on the X-files and played Becca for almost three years on the Disney channel show Flash Forward way back after Space Cases got canceled.

Sean was in the movie Brian Piccolo on ABC wonderful World of Disney...

Nathan was on One Life To Live, methinks, and Two guys and a girl.

Gia was ont he short lived - Cleopatra 2525

Summer was in an Episode of Angel (the horribly terrible season 3 ep waiting in the wings [well, I'm a b/aer, that's why])

Wash was in Knight's Tale.

Carlos (dobson) was in an episode of Angel. It was like the fourth one.

Jayne was in Angel for the last bit of season 5 and gia was the big bad in the last bit of season 4. Nathan was one of the big bads at the end of Buffy.

I'm surprised I forgot to mention that Richard Brooks (Jubal Early) was in the short-lived "G vs. E." That show was fun.

I too, saw Richard Brooks in an episode of Diagnosis Murder, playing a boxer who was suspected of murder.

SHINYHAPPYKLIN

I've been seeing a new Dove commercial about hair care (all the girls in standing around a statue are blond, then they pull off their wigs, showing all different kinds of hair)...the very last shot, right before the "Dove" logo comes up...isn't that Jewel??? The girl has Jewel's very distinctive smile (not the big happy smile, but the soft satisfied, eyes almost closed one).

Anyone know if it IS Jewel or not?

Don't squat with your spurs on.

Gina Torres was a regular on Hercules the Legendary Journeys. She played Andromenda. Very sexy wide open role and was a love interest for Iaolus.
