Every time I write a post for this journal in my head, it begins with "So it seems…." But then I skip what it actually seems and move on to the meat of the post. Which I never actually post because by the time I do all the fannish stuff, and the roleplaying and check my f'list the entire lack of audience here makes posting seem pointless. And I don't know how to get an audience. Or even if I really want one. Or if I do have one which doesn't speak. If you're here, for whatever reason, feel free to comment.

I have Interview Meme questions from the_fibber to answer.

Did you know there's going to be a Get Smart movie? I discovered this when I was doing my six-degrees-of-imdb to find out who plays Niki's mother in Heroes. The autofill on the address bar came up with Frances de la Tour, because I looked up The History Boys for P a couple of weeks ago. I remembered that Masi Oka, who plays Hiro in Heroes was in an episode of Studio 60. So then I had to get from Frances de la Tour to Hereos. She was in one of the Harry Potter films (four, to be precise), which gets me to Emma Thompson, who was in Angels in America with Mary-Louise Parker, who was in the West Wing, which was created by Aaron Sorkin, who also created Studio 60. Masi Oka is going to be in the Get Smart movie. Along with Terrance Stamp as Sigfried, Steve Carell (the uncle in Little Miss Sunshine) as Max and Alan Arkin (Grandpa in Little Miss Sunshine) as the Chief.

Niki's mother is played by a woman who appeared in one episode of season one of CSI.
