STRAIGHT
FROM THE HEART
This is the place to
express your good feelings about the "V" Actors, Crew and
"V" in general! Some of the "V" affiliates do
visit the site, so maybe they'll see this!
KEN
JOHNSON (Creator)
I wrote Ken Johnson
an email and he answered back!! He is soooo sweet. He said his
daughter's name is Katie too and he has never worked with Michael
Ironside. I told him how much I love "v" and that I got
the dvd and just love his work on "alien nation" too.. He
is really nice and I am soooo touched that he wrote back. Thought
you'd like to know - but you know how special he is, right? Right!!!

DIRECTOR AND THE
WHOLE CAST OF"V": Kenneth Johnson, was, is, and still is a
Great Director, a one of a kind you won't find or combine with any
other. And the Cast Members, were and is still is, more than
talented in giving the viewers what they wanted to see, Their
Best!!! - Paulette
I think he's a great writer and deserves far more credit than George Lucas.
In my personal opinion, all the movies he has written has held my
interest more than any Star Wars movie ever could. -

BLAIR
TEFKIN (Robin
Maxwell)
8/15/04 - It's been 4
years since my visit to Los Angeles and my first visit to the States
to attend the V
con - but was it worth it! I got to meet all the actors at the
con, and then the added bonus of going out on a dinner date (well ok
her boyfriend was there, but hey!) with Blair Tefkin - what a lovely
lady she is too. I think that she played the part of Robin in
all of the incarnations of "V"
extremely well, and the "alien twins" birth is certainly a
scene that has stayed with me over the years! You honestly could not
meet a more talented and day to earth person if you tried. If
you are reading Blair, hope the music is still going ok, and if you
are ever in London, let me return the dinner date favour! - Dave May

I am big fan of Blair
Tefkin's and her music. I hope she will be doing another CD of
her music soon. I have been playing it to anyone who listen
usually in the car when I'm giving someone l lift. You'd be
surprised at the amount of people who say this is good; who is it? And
then I promptly give the address of Blair's website. I
Hope Blair will do some more live shows soon so I can get the chance
of coming over to see her. I am involved in organizing our own local
music festival (we do it for nothing to raise money for charity
and to bring to people new bands). One day I might ask her if she
come over and appear in one of our festivals. DJ Rosy Red - UK. |
MARC
SINGER (Mike
Donovan)
What can I say?
He and Michael J. Fox were the first crushes that I had as a six and
seven year-old. Those tight stonewashed jeans, the vest he
always wore, that smile, those eyes! He is a
wonderful actor--endearing in "The Beastmaster" and
conniving in "Paper Dolls." We don't see enough of
him today on the screen. Marc, you're the best, and the only
one who could play Donovan for me. - Jaime Boler |
FAYE
GRANT (Julie
Parrish)
I don't know a lot
about you, but seeing you in the movie drive me crazy and the tv
show state of grace I became a big fan. theres not a lot about you
out there. well I just wanted to let you know that there are people
out there that that think about you and care about you, like
me. Always, Ashley Smith
Wow this is the 1st
time I saw your web site! I love it! I am a Faye Grant
fan! She is just so beautiful and talented! I can't believe
you met her! I'm a 14 yr. old girl w/ lots of money and a
sucky life but everytime I see Faye on TV or I see pics.of her I get
happy! My dream is to see her and talk to her in person even
if it;s just for like 2 minutes or something! Anyway I just
wanted to let you know you have an awesome website and thanx! See ya,
Michele
Thanks for all the
bio work on Faye Grant. She is such a gifted actress in my
opinion, I would have thought that she would have been a big star? -
Patrick in Illinois
As for Faye, all I
can say is that Seventh Heaven guy (her husband, Stephen Collins) is
one lucky guy! It never really hit me until just a few days
ago why over the years I have found myself extremely attracted to
short attractive blondes with take charge personalities... it was
because I fell in love with the Julie character as a kid. I
guess the closest TV character in today's terms would be the short
red-head feisty character of Scully of the X-Files, but Julie will
always be my first love :) - Kevin Suarez
Since 6 years, I've
been a fan of Faye GRANT. Since I have seen "V"
because my father was already fan of her. She is beautiful,
she is my favorite actress. I love her. I dream to write to her,
even to meet her. - Marie Thiery
Faye Grant's
character Julie is my hero. I love Julie's smile, her boldness, her
bravery and her coyness. I love her mentor role towards Robin and
Elizabeth. My favorite scene in all of V is when Julie tells off Ham
Tyler after returning from her attempted conversion. I first watched
Faye Grant in The Greatest American Hero, in which she sang at least
a couple of times, sharing her beautiful voice with the world. She
is an amazing performer and I hope she continues to share her
talents on screen. -Tamie Kwist

MARIN
MAY (Katie Maxwell)
I was just on your
page and saw the autograph section for
the first time. What a cute picture of Marin as Katie!!! - Tamie
Kwist
As for the pics of
Marin, wow she has really grown. I hope she's getting some good
parts there in Hollywood. Its a rough place to be in but I'm sure
she'll get along fine. As for me just wish her all the best
and hope she gets good parts to play there in Hollywood., and thank
her for the wonderful work she did in V. Just wish her the best for
me. - Rajendra Dwarka
She's awesome!
And really, really cute and sweet! Maybe I should ask her for
her hand in marriage... oops... no, that would be a bit too forward,
wouldn't it? (I'm only kidding around of course!) - Brian

JANE
BADLER (Diana)
I adore Jane Badler
and one of my ambitions in life would be to meet her. - John,
Scotland
I've been a huge fan
of Jane ever since I first saw her in V, but since V I've only ever
seen her in Mission Impossible. If you could give me *any*
information about Jane's singing career, I'd be very grateful -
Peter
Ever since I was
little I’ve always dreamed of meeting the two leading ladies of V.
As a young girl, they were there V characters were the only two
positive female rule models I had. Jane and Faye played their parts
great and I can’t ever picture someone else playing those
characters. Their characters were such strong leaders for being
women. I think their roles helped pave the way for female characters
who are leaders. - Bobbi Moore |
"V"
In General
Way back when, right
after "V - the mini-series" was first televised, my older
brother had the opportunity to visit a power plant in Huntington
Beach, CA (about 40 minutes south of Los Angeles) as part of a Boy
Scouts activity. The power plant, then called
"Haines" power plant, was the plant used in "V"
(right after the Visitors first reveal themselves to the
earthlings). Anyway, I was pretty young - 7 or 8 years old,
and "V" was the coolest thing I had ever seen in my life.
So, when my brother came home from his trip to the power plant, I
didn't think much of it, as I didn't know where he had been that
day.
He then proceeded to tell me that he had been to the plant where
they filmed "V", and that in the parking lot there was A
VISITOR SHUTTLE STILL THERE!! He had tried to open the door,
but it was locked. I remember him telling me how the windows
were so dark, you couldn't see in, and he thought that maybe they
weren't windows at all, but black plastic. Apparently, the Shuttle
had been sitting there for some time and the production crew just
hadn't picked it up yet. I was so jealous of him... I was too
young to be in Boy Scouts or I would have been there to see it too!
I should have begged my parents to take me over there to see it, but
for some reason I didn't (stupid, stupid, stupid!!!). Another thing
- I asked him if he remembered anything else, and he remembers that
there were red, white and blue ribbons all over the place and "
Welcome " signs all around....I thought that was pretty cool!!!
If he would have only grabbed something >:( - Brian Fletcher |
