Gillian Anderson

I know I said last week would be the endt of the Gillian Anderson photos. It turned out to be otherwise. She is too good looking to pass up.

Gillian Anderson

Today is the final Sunday to feature a review for The X-Files, so it is also the last day for a gaggle of Gillian Anderson photos. Here is the best of what I have left. From now on, Anderson will rejoin the irregular rotation tp be shared whenever I discover a new photo I like.

To answer the question that popped into your mind before reading the previous sentence, I am skeptical there is a wide variety of Jeri Ryan photos out there to have her replace Anderson on Sundays. At least not six months worth, which is roughly how long it will take to plow through the detritus that is Star Trek: Voyager. She appears to have participated in about three big magazine photo spreads all about a decade ago. Surely you have seen them by now.

It does not matter right now. We have eighty days from now until she shows up on the series. That is plenty of time to figure out the best way of doing things.

Formspring Question #103--Get Back, Back to Where You Once Belonged Edition

You're the guy to ask for this. There's a photo of Gillian Anderson in a backless dress from an awards show around '97-'98. I can't find it anywhere now. Do you by any chance have it? Thanks.
Is this it?It is quite...nice, even if it is not what you are looking for.
