Today's Blind Items
I guess this actress is C list. She probably used to be B. Was once on a very famous television show with an ensemble cast that has moved on to lots of better things. Our actress has always had a squeaky clean image because of that popular show. Right now she focuses on movies and gets leads in straight to DVD features. When she is all made up she looks fabulous. When you catch her in her trailer smoking meth though she looks like the strung out junkie she is who has no problems f**king anyone who gives her money for drugs.
Kudrow?
ReplyDeleteOMG...NO WAY...
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought of Lisa Kudrow too. I can't think of anyone else who fits.
ReplyDeleteKudrow's character on Friends got arrested (I think) and used to steal stuff. Not a really squeaky clean image, IMO.
ReplyDeleteNo, I'm pretty sure that it's not Kudrow. I read...I think here that she gave her last residual from Friends completely to charity so I don't think she's lacking for drug money.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I can't think of a guess because for some reason this blind is just blowing my mind-hole.
Jane Leeves?
ReplyDeleteSeinfeld once as the virgin.
This is a really tough one. I doubt very much that Lisa Kudrow is a junkie.
ReplyDeleteThose Friends people have not moved on to better things. Also, they were all A-list at the height of its popularity.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I was thinking Buffy as the show, and Michelle Trachtenberg as the C-used-to-be-B
Hmmm...Claire Danes?
ReplyDeleteLori Loughlin? Full House? Something is kind of telling me party of five?
ReplyDeleteWhat about Jessica Biel? They don't get much squeakier than 7th Heaven and didn't Powder Blue go straight to DVD?
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking someone young-ish.
ReplyDeleteBingo! Rachel Bilson - didn't Enty say something the other day in the photos that she's only making about one film a year?
Not Michelle since she's on Gossip Girl and Mercy (I think that's the name of her new show). Def TV.
ReplyDeleteI did see a picture of Lisa looking quite haggard out and about with her son a week ago; it didn't scream meth face to me, just 'Wow, she's not ageing well as I thought.'
Maybe someone from ER? I never got into that show so I can't point to one person in particular, but a lot of people have moved on from ER to other things successfully.
I'm thinking more along the lines of Dawson's Creek, Felicity, Freaks & Geeks...

ReplyDeletelaura prepon?
ReplyDeleteJane Leeves does fit, which makes me sick because I loved her on Frasier.
ReplyDeleteGood guess, Jax.
Mischa.

ReplyDeleteRaven Symone/Cosby?
ReplyDeleteWas once on a very famous television show with an ensemble cast that has moved on to lots of better things.
ReplyDeleteThat makes it sound like the famous TV show wasn't a great TV show. So maybe along the lines of The O.C. or 90210 or Melrose Place or Baywatch.
Laura Prepon is a really good guess
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Jessica Biel!
ReplyDeleteWhat about someone from that 70s show? I never really watched it but the only ensemble show I can think of where the cast has moved on to bigger and better thing...
ReplyDeleteIt's Henrietta Pussycat. Life has been hard since "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood" went off the air, you know..... and that bitch Fairchilde isn't exactly generous with payroll. Meow meow hard to pay for the meth meow meow meow docent's salary meow.
ReplyDeleteAs for the owl... well, they don't call him "X" for nothing. God help you if you somehow keep him from going to Burning Man....
Katy, what better things have the Frasier group moved on to?
ReplyDeleteI'm with trashtalker.
lacey chabert from party of five?
ReplyDeleteParty of Five is a great guess. I was thinking of Ally McBeal as another show from which several people have built long-term fame. There must be more like this...
ReplyDeleteWell, Niles has had a great career on Broadway (Spamalot, anyone?), Roz was on some ABCFamily show, and Frasier...
ReplyDeleteyou're right, it's probably not someone from Frasier.
What about Elizabeth Berkeley from Saved by the Bell?
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking Keshia Knight Pulliam (Rudy from the Cosby Show). Google her name and "Spelman cocaine ring" and you'll have your answer. She was the lead in a recent Tyler Perry flick and I know I've seen her in some crappy DVD titles. Christmas at Water's Edge anyone?
ReplyDeleteDefinitely matches the cast clue. Cosby only got more famous after the show went off the air, Phylicia Rashad went on to Broadway, Raven-Symone obviously became Raven-Symone. Lisa Bonet hooked up with Lenny Kravitz. Malcolm Jamal-Warner had a steady career for a while after the show's end.
Elizabeth Berkley is in the Donnie Darko sequel, but she's not the lead.
ReplyDeleteWas 7th Heaven (Jessica Biel) "a very famous show"?
Mischa Barton was just on a TV show, so that's not really "focus[ing] on movies."
Mila Kunis (That '70s Show)? Eh, probably not.
OK, back to the clues. "Was ONCE on a very famous television show..." Sure does seem like maybe it was a one-time guest appearance.
AAACK! *sweat drops* *sweat drops*
how come no one said Greasy ass David Schwinner a.k.a. Ross...that pic def has methface right around the corner..
ReplyDeletelittle rudy from the cosby has stated that she is set financially for life. her mom did very well with her earnings as a child. her residuals from the show are more than likely very large. she would not have to fuck for money to buy drugs.
ReplyDeletethat said, she doesn't fit this BI. but yeah i heard she was a coke hound.
Keisha Knight Pulliam (Rudy Huxtable) has been on House of Payne for the past few years. I don't think she fits.
ReplyDeleteI also thought of Sherry Stringfield (I can't say she was B list, though.)
Pimp, you crack me up!
ReplyDeleteAs to the blind - I got nothin'.
how about neve campbell? she always looks disheveled..or someone from 90210? tori spelling, perhaps?
ReplyDeleteoooh...christina applegate??
ReplyDeleteOMG...Pimp....I haven't commented on here in forever.......but you literally made me howl out loud!!!! I so remember Henrietta and the owl.......what were the rest of 'em?
ReplyDeletebtw....Pimp....I think Henrietta was a hippo........
ReplyDelete70s show
ReplyDelete90210
Melrose Place
Friends
7th Heaven
Frasier
Seinfeld
- I would say NO ONE from these casts when on to do bigger and better things. When they were on these shows, that was it for them, the height of their fame.
The OC
Cosby Show
Full House
Saved by the Bell
Dawson's Creek
- probably split between people that have gone on to do better things and people that have crashed and burned.
Party of Five
Ally McBeal
Freeks and Geeks
- definitely shows where the cast has gone on to do bigger and better things.
Any more like that, or what are the people that could have come from these shows?
Jennifer Aniston. all of the other members of friends cast in the random photos except her!!!
ReplyDeleteNot Jennifer Aniston. She is considered A-list.
ReplyDeleteDANIELLE: Oooh, you hit that one out of the park.... I think you nailed it w/Never Campbell!! It fits.
ReplyDeleteEnsemble cast that has gone on to better things: Matthew Fox is on "LOST," Lacey Chabert did "Mean Girls" Even Jennifer Love Hewitt had the "I Know What You Did Last Summer" franchise which was successful in its day, and when she was younger, she was the "It" chick in the cheesecake lad mags like "Maxim" and whatnot. Scott Wolf has had success as a regular on TV in "The Nine" and "Everwood"
Only ONE nagging thing bothers me; I see recent TV on her IMDB, and I can't figure the "Straight to DVD" thing.
I immediately thought of Mila Kunis, but after reading everyone else's guess, I'm going to throw someone else out there. What about Linda Cardinelli (sp?). She was in both "ER" and "Freaks and Geeks" if I remember correctly. Then she played Chutney in Legally Blonde, plus she was in the Oscar worthy Scooby Doo movies. (She was Velma.) Just a guess!
ReplyDeleteBTW, OT and side note to Enty: Guess who's out of the hospital. Email me and I'll give you the 411! Good grief, I've missed you all so much! And now that my doctor says I'm at 100%, I hope to go atodlist back up and running!!!!
For some reason Nurse Wendy from ER came to mind. But according to IMDB Vanessa Marquez hasn't worked in forever.
ReplyDeleteHeather Locklear? She looks great below.
ReplyDeleteKatherine McPhee. It fits.
ReplyDeleteKatherine McPhee. It fits.
ReplyDeleteJodie Sweetin is an obvious guess except she was never a B and isn't a C. Old koot guess: Victoria Principal?
ReplyDeleteGoogled TV ensemble shows and came up with a Dallas reviewer's list of his 10 favorites, thought maybe it would help us figure this out?
ReplyDeleteAll That (had Amanda Bynes and other kid actors); Roseanne; Homicide: Life on the Streets; Arrested Development; Prison Break; Married with Children; Saturday Night Live; MadTV; Sex and the City; Cheers; The Cosby Show; West Wing; Desperate Housewives; The Wire; ER; The Shield; Seinfeld; The Golden Girls (LOL LOL it's Betty White); In Living Color; Freaks and Geeks.
It also gave honorable mentions to Fresh Prince of Bel Aire; 24; Boston Public; Buffy the Vampire Slayer; Scrubs; Star Trek the Next Generation; The Wonder Years; and The Sopranos.
That's probably just the tip of the iceberg.
Shelley Long, Cheers.
ReplyDeleteSomebody who played a good girl and also has the ability to look fabulous (so it's not Tori Spelling)...
ReplyDeletesomeone from Sesame Street.
ReplyDeleteI think Majik nailed it. Shelly Long from Cheers is a great guess. Kelsey Grammer, Ted Danson, Woody Harrelsonm, Kirstie Alley all went on to bigger and better things. And I have read that she has had drug issues.
ReplyDeleteI have it. It's Cheri Oteri from SNL. Popular ensemble show whose cast members went on to better things, especially her Spartans cheerleader costar, Will Ferrell. Plus, Cheri was in that straight to DVD jessica Simpson movie that came out a few years ago. For the win?!
ReplyDeleteI think Jessica Biel is a great guess.
ReplyDeletePerhaps the "an ensemble cast that has moved on to lots of better things" is a play on words, relating to 7th Heaven. (People sometimes reference people that have died as having "passed on to somewhere better.")
Jessica does have the ability to look good, it's rumored she and Justing Timberlake are done, and the last movie she did went straight to DVD (she played a stripper).
The only thing that doesn't really fit is I don't really see Justin as a junkie, or putting up with someone that was.
I want to say Mischa Barton, but then I remember she was arrested so there goes "squeaky clean." She's had about 4 or 5 movies go straight to DVD, according to Wiki.
ReplyDeleteBack to the drawing board...
All due respect, I just don't think Seventh Heaven was that big/popular. Not that the OC was blowing critics and audiences away, hee.
My first thought was Neve Campbell. Or one of the girls from Full House.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think it’s Jessica Biel; haven’t we read that she hates the fact that Justin Timberlake does blow?
Keshia Knight Pulliam went on get a college degree. I’d believe Lisa Bonet before her.
Shelley Long is supposed to guest star on a few episodes of "Modern Family." And has she starred in any straight-to-DVD movies lately?
ReplyDeleteNeve Campbell was just on that "Philanthropist" show, and she dirtied up any squeaky-clean image she may have had with "Wild Things."
This has to be someone from BayWatch. Most of the previous guesses misses the Straight-To-DVD aspect. I'm thinking Pam Anderson or someone else like that from the show.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Leia :-)
ReplyDeleteHard to imagine Shelley Long. She always seemed so wholesome and sweet.
ReplyDeleteCharisma Carpenter? But she's done a bit of TV recently.
ReplyDeletePam Anderson...who happens to be living in a trailer right now.
ReplyDeleteI think Pam Anderson blew her squeaky clean image when she married Tommy and released her sex video with him. Plus she looks like sh$t ALL the time now.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea who but am going with someone from SNL. True, there have been some stars crash and burn but more that have gone on to bigger and better, no?
ReplyDeleteshelley long and cheri oteri are both really good guesses. great blind!
ReplyDeleteBut Pam Anderson is a really good guess, too. Especially if she is living in a trailer.. I took trailer to mean the kind of trailer for actors on movie sets.
ReplyDeleteAgain, though, neither Pam nor Biel are "squeeky clean" - remember Biels photo shoot where she went naked? That upset the 7th heaven crowd for sure.
ReplyDeleteER was my first guess but not sure which actress, maybe Sherri Stringfield. She always seemed a bit off.
ReplyDeleteKeep in mind ENTY says that the cast has moved on to better things...I dont think anyone on FRIENDS outside of Aniston could you argue has IMPROVED their status in Hollywood.
ReplyDeleteFocus on a show like ER, Melrose Place or something of that ilk.
heather locklear?
ReplyDeleteI would love to guess Bilson from the OC, but she really looks like too much of a frigid ice queen to be doing even her "fiance," much less anyone else.
ReplyDelete@deity2: That was "New Zoo Review". :)
ReplyDeleteTiffany Amber-Thiessen? Didn't she get arrested for drugs or a DUI a while back? Not that her castmates have gone onto bigger and better things, but she kind of fits.
ReplyDeleteLacey Chabert from Party of Five. She has done a few straight to dvd movies.
ReplyDeletepamela anderson?
ReplyDeleteI like Linda Cardellini for this (Freaks and Geeks, ER.) Almost everyone else who was involved w/Freaks and Geeks has hit it big.
ReplyDeleteCome on people. Nothing in this blind matches the history of Linda Cardellini! Are you just blindly guessing tv shows. The same goes for Lisa Kudrow. A little effort please!
ReplyDeleteNicole Eggert - Baywatch.
ReplyDeleteObviously Mischa, she does all the straight to DVD movies and look at her. Just hospitalized also.
ReplyDeleteI like the Party of Five guesses...either Neve or Lacey could fit.
ReplyDeleteSamaire Armstrong? I've heard a lot of rumors about her...
ReplyDeletethis is totally, without a doubt MISCHA BARTON...all signs point towards her..she has made a ton of straight to DVD titles since The OC.. Homecoming, Closing the Ring, Finding Tatu, OH in Ohio....
ReplyDeletemischa does not have a squeaky clean image. neither does jessica biel although i do like that guess. shelly long had a long movie career (maybe crappy but not all straight to dvd) after cheers until she lost it. i like laura prepon or one of the party of five girls.
ReplyDeletePatricia Heaton? From ELR....maybe?
ReplyDeletePatricia Heaton?!? Smoking meth?Come on people, now you're not even trying!
ReplyDeleteLaura Prepon is a scientologist. Do they do meth? They don't like prozac...but would meth be ok? Doubt it. She is a pretty bad actress, too, FWIW.
ReplyDeleteKudrow is too smart, I think. Vassar grad, and not sure if she does straight to DVD. More indie roles and bit parts on cable shows.
Mila: voice over on Family Guy forever. I don't see it, and dating McCauley Kulkin might cancel out the good girl factor.
Neve? Well, she was in that ballet movie. Maybe she got on the meth to get thin?
Lacey: have seen her on a Lifetime movie. Other than that, where is she? Looking at imdb, she seems like a good direct-to-dvd candidate.
Sue Ellen Mishkey? (just kidding!)
kristen davis? her character on SATC is squeeky clean and didn't she used to be on Melrose Place? She was the first one i thought of...
ReplyDeleteWhat about Law and Order? Elisabeth Rohm's publicist was working overtime for her while she was on the show and probably boosted her to a B level, but since then, she's done nothing more than Lifetime movie level crap. Can't get more vanilla image-wise than L&O...
ReplyDeleteShe just had a baby and is probably freaking out about losing the weight so might have turned to drugs. And she does clean up well...
its samaire armstrong , there have been rumors for ages about her meth addiction and shes frightning w/o makeup
ReplyDeleteHelen(Crystal Bernard) from Wings.
ReplyDeleteGawd I hope this guess is wrong.
its definitely jodi sweeten, the girl who played the middle sister on full house.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Sarah Michelle Gellar?
ReplyDeleteBuffy was hugely popular, but most of her movies have tanked. Aly Hannigan is on How I Met Your Mother, Seth Green has Family Guy and Robot Chicken, Anthony Head is on Merlin, even David Boreanez has Bones. Oh, and Michelle Trachenburg is on Gossip Girl. And SMG? Not a hell of a lot. Plus she has always looked terrifyingly skinny since about 2000.
I agree, most of the guess could be but... Did anyone else noticed this Blind was published on 09/30? Is the Lacey's birthday. Coincidence?.
ReplyDelete+ She is synonymous of squeaky and she have very clean image.
+ She was in a popular show.
+ She was focuses on movies, and gets leads in straight to DVD.
+ She always looks fabulous.
- About her former cast, is too subjective, she has also had very excellent time, better than the rest IMO.
Seriously I cannot, I don't want believe it's her. Plese, Who is this blind? it's been four years.
