Praise Be: Madchen Amick

It's been over a year and I still haven't gotten through the DVD of Twin Peaks. We keep getting newer and less taxing DVD's to watch and it keeps going to the bottom of the list. And now on the 2nd season it starts to unravel anyway in terms of making any sense whatsoever. But I do still remember watching that show and the hype around the show's three female leads, Sherilyn Fenn (Audrey Horn), Lara Flynn Boyle (Donna Hayward), and of course Madchen Amick (Shelly Johnson). Amick wasn't as high profile as the other two, and seemed to languish in nowheresville for some time. But In the past few years she has started to be perfectly cast as the cougarish vixen at the ripe age of 38 she has recently been cast excellently on Californication and Gossip Girl, but she has been playing this act up since 1999 in Dawson's Creek and few years after on Gilmore Girls. She seems fun. She's like the new undrunk Heather Locklear. [Check her out on Chelsea Lately]

Here's some things I find interesting about her:

5. She's actually been married to the same guy since 1992. That's monumental in Hollywood, non?
4. And Mother of two? Seriously? Come on.
3. She's a friend to Buffy's Sarah Michelle Geller.
2. That that infamous Rolling Stone Cover from 1990 was the first time non-musicians had been on the cover. And now the magazine is creepily regular sized. Coincidence?
1. I'd forgotten that she was an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation in season 2.
