[**DONOTDELETE**]

Oooh!

I didn't know she was a stunt person or that she was in so many Star Trek TNG, DS9 and VOY episodes or Austin Posers!

kewl!

Especially when she's wearing a fake blond wig and swinging from a Tyrannosaur skeleton.

If you check Jurassic Park's credits, she was listed as "Patrick Tallman".

d'OH!!!

I saw the TNG episode "Power Play" of her's today actually!

You just know something is gonna happen to her chararacter when you see her.

I didn't know she was in "The Next Phase" but now, in my head, I can see exactly who she was!

Pat Tallman is God.

All fall to your knees and worship Pat Tallman.

Pat Tallman is brilliant.

Love Pat Tallman.

Lyta Alexander is the best character in Babylon 5!!

I LOVE LYTA!!

But, getting to the point of the thread...

I saw Generations a couple of times at the Cinema when it first came out, but when I hired it on video the first time, as I watching the woman who was supposed to be Beverly Crusher falling into the water, I grabbed the remote control, rewound it, leaned forward and screamed: "THAT'S LYTA ALEXANDER!!"

Thankfully the people I was watching the movie with were Babylon 5 fans, or I might have had some explaining to do!

There was a thread about a month ago that said: 'You know you are a B5 addict if...'

Well, you know you are a B5 addict if you wrestle the remote control from a friend, rewind a video everyone is watching, then shriek: "That's Lyta Alexander!" And the video you are watching is NOT Babylon 5.

I am sad.

I know this.

Just never forget. Pat Tallman is God!

Have to agree with the majority...

Pat Tallman is one of the sexiest women on the planet - and a damn fine actress to boot. It's a shame we couldn't have had her all the way through the series, rather than replacing her with Talia for one and a half seasons.

Hear hear!

Nothing against Andrea Thompson, but I never found Talia as compelling as Lyta.

Maybe it was just the Vorlon mystique?

Or the red hair.

Or those eyes.

Or... *ahem*

The Vorlon mystique. Definitely.

I believe that JMS once posted that her Eyes were a Big factor in the decision to cast Pat Tallman as Lyta. They are Very distinctive and fit his image of Lyta.

Good to see you again, my friend... looks like you beat Joe DeMartino to the Plethora of Pat Points Post...

There's just something about actresses who double as stuntwomen, isn't there?

This girl is a sucker for redheads too.

That's why I married one.... Hee hee.

Which episode of ST:TNG was it where she was the evil terrorist chick trying to steal something from the Enterprise? The guy who plays Tuvok was in that episode too.

I saw it recently, but I don't remember the name of it. Was it Power Play?

------------------

 

[Catheryn]

B5Elf... am 99% sure it was called: 'Starship Mine'... that's the one where Picard goes Rambo, isn't it?

"Officially, I'm a P5. Unofficially, my range is more... much more."

 

[B5_Obsessed]

That was "Starship Mine" aka Die Hard Picard!

Not only was Tim Russ one of the villains, but Marie Marshall (P.F.C. Dodger from GROPOS) was the leader of the pack.

"Power Play" was the episode where nasty entities possessed O'Brien, Deanna Troi, and Data and ,while trying to take over the ship, ended up in a hostage standoff in Ten Forward. Pat was a security officer who took a hit when Worf's team stormed in. I saw this one two weeks ago.

"Timescape" was the one where they find the Enterprise and a Romulan warbird frozen in time, seemingly locked in combat. Onboard the Warbird are two aliens disguised as Romulans. Pat has about 5 seconds of screen time and shouts the line "YOU MUST NOT!" I just saw that one last week.

I believe that that movie also starred Tony Todd, the guy that played the captain of the Cheron in "A Call to Arms"

Ivanova is always right. I will listen to Ivanova. I will not ignore Ivanova's recommendations. Ivanova is God. And if this ever happens again, Ivanova will personally rip your lungs out.

 

[B5Elf]

Yeah...he's carrying his saddle and he throws it at one of the terrorists... I think it was the guy who played Tuvok.
