Heh.
Watched The Big Bang Theory tonight, which I'm really getting into, and there was a guest star this week. Christine Baranski.
I don't know how many people out there (well, who are reading this, anyways) ever watched Cybill, but it was a hilarious show starring Cybill Shepherd. Among the regular cast was Christine Baranski. Baranski's character was totally the pre-cursor to Megan Mullally's Karen on Will & Grace and she was an absolute riot. She absolutely should have been billed right up there with Cybill Shepherd if she wasn't, because the interactions between the two of them, along with Alicia Witt's one-liners as Zoey, basically WERE the show.
There's this one episode where Cybill's all mopey about love gone awry and asks Maryann (played by Baranski) if she thinks they'll ever find head-over-heels love again.
Maryann retorts something along the lines of: "At this point, I would settle for heels over head!"
So I got all nostalgic for Cybill after the episode and went and looked it up at IMDB. Wouldn't you know it, Chuck Lorre, who's the creator of The Big Bang Theory also created Cybill. I was highly amused.
In other Cybill news, in case you were woefully unaware, Cybill's been on the last couple of seasons of The L Word as a more mature woman coming out, finding love, etc, adding quite a lot of comic relief to the show. Her real-life daughter, Clementine Ford, has also made appearances on the show and recently sort of came out. She doesn't define herself as straight, bi or gay. But as "out", and it's heavily implied that her current SO is a woman.
Who would have thought that you could link The Big Bang Theory to Clementine Ford so easily?
