DPP: Our Worst Nightmare

Reunited: Would it feel so good?

Hee. Okay so I'm being a little silly with the subject line, but all this flurry of casting news for Ron Moore's new TV pilot, The 17th Precinct, had to have struck some fear into the hearts of shippers everywhere. He cast Jamie, then James, then Tricia and there are plenty of folks wondering if there might be more battlestar vets he'll try to pick up. Katee is still out there, available, and someone on twitter pointed out that she and Tricia tweeted about seeing each other at an audition where they were up for different parts. Of course, it was probably not for 17P...but... the role of Jamie's character's wife is still open. And it calls for a somewhat snarky blonde in her 30s.

We've all said plenty of times that we would love to see them play a couple in something else...never ever thinking that was a real possibility. Which brings me to today's scenario: If Katee was cast as Susan (the wife of Jamie's character, Caolan), would you watch? Would you ship? Or do you need them to be Kara and Lee for you to ever feel that way again?



Also just a couple of reminders: The (Not Very) Porny Battle Rages On! Also, we need folks to steer the DPPs! Esp for the rest of this month. I've got a special project in mind for a few days next week, but the end of the month needs fearless shippers to volunteer! Oh and if anyone missed my meta article on why pilots are my OTP you can find it here. Please feel free to comment if you can!

I would be pissed if Katee got cast as Jamie's cheating wife. Way to rub it in RDM, ya know?

And honestly, this show is starting to seem very crackficish.

Yes, I'm still bitter. ;P

Thanks! And yeah, I wonder how the execution will be. Will Ron be able to resist getting really winky with the script? I mean...if he had Jamie and Jamies in mind to play these two all along, then the cheating plot twist is something I could see him find really amusing to do.

Hopefully these characters are different enough that we won't be thinking of the BSG peeps after a while.

Oh so Susan cheats on Jamie's character? Oh then you know he wants Katee for it. He's evil enough do that no doubt!

[callmeonetrack.livejournal.com]

Yes and she cheats on him with Jeff. O_o So it would very much be a redo.

Oh now I just know he wants her to do it! The evil bastard!

Though keep in mind things from the script are subject to change. Amanda cheated on Daniel in Caprica in the script. They dropped that in the actual show.
