Vote Leeland

TV Squad has Jamie Bamber up for this year's "Excellence in Outsourcing" award...currently HOUSE's Hugh Laurie is beating him. Go on over there.

That's ridiculous. Hugh Laurie's accent is horribly obvious and he's winning. Rachel Griffith's is the best, though.

I just noticed over there at TV Squad that someone posted this link from the BBC - apparently Laurie was voted one of the 5 worst American accents by UK viewers! LOL

(And yeah, it's really hard for me to push Bamber over Griffiths, that stings. I adore her...but I'm ridiculously loyal.)

Is it Leland or Leeland?
Damn you BSG writers - I'll never be able to properly fantasize about Lee again...

Hmm...

*changes it*

That's better, hope it's right. The other spelling always reminds me of Bob peeping around the dresser and that damned ceiling fan...and Grace Zabriskie's twisted face. Ooh. *shiver*

Hey Proggrrl, I found this on TvSquad today. I wonder if you've ever reported on it. Mark Verheiden talked about how there is a a recurring theme with the cylons and the right eye. Tigh loses right eye. Cylon scans Anders Right eye. Eye of Jupiter.

I have no idea what the people in the UK are talking about with HUGH LAURIE. I was born and raised in America and his accent sounds completely American to me ALL of the time. Lee sounds American to me all of the time as well. I don't have a preference between the two actors. Apollo isn't my favorite BSG character, but I don't mind him. However, the LAURIE comment is ridiculous...or should I say, "Bollocks!" There is no denying that man's talent.
