I really like her, but man, Scoop was bad. It really showed how hard it is to make a good film about journalism.

The X-Files. The first tv show I was absolutely obsessed with.

I also learned how good tv shows can go bad when they go on for far too long with the quality of writing decreasing and the actors wanting to leave. My love for the show turned into hate and then into indifference, I never saw any of the revivals.

The move to LA was the beginning of the end.. Instead of the rainy, atmospheric Vancouver we were suddenly in sunny California and a lot of the magic was gone.
