Who did Lisa Howard P*** Off?!

got season V and in the tape "The Romances of Duncan MacLeod", she's not
mentioned there either. What gives?

I doubt she pissed anyone off, especially. Her character was certainly one
of the least favorite around here, ranking somewhere around that of Charlie
DeSalvo. Scenes between Dr Ann and Duncan seemed more rote than passionate.
But it was probably a matter of permissions not given or contracts not
signed. I don't recall talk of any ill will.

house for Ann and the baby. I only wish they showed little Mary in a followup
episode.

Money, contract requirements, business stuff. I'm sure it wasn't
personal.

To be different is not necessarily to be ugly;
to have a different idea is not necessarily to be wrong.
The worst possible thing is for all of us to begin
to look and act and think alike.

I don't know about the Romances tape, but in a discussion (at - um - Chicago,
perhaps?), I believe the Gillian or Donna or both discussed the montage, and
the many, many version that were made.
One or both said that Charlie and Anne were not included in the montage because
of - um - permissions? Legalities of some kind that they couldn't use any
Canadian actors who were not directly in that episode. I don't have the exact
quote but I remember that part.

Thank God I am not alone! That woman drove me mad. How HL put up with her for
so long is a mystery to me. She was pompous, childish and selfish. Yes,
selfish! All this crap about being a physician was purely to satisfy her own
ego.
BTW, I faithfully promise to report when I actually hear a doctor say in
earnest: "I deal with matters of life and death everyday!". Provided, of
course, that I do not die laughing, which surely all the other physicians
within hearing distance will do.
This, of course, has little to do with the meat of this thread and I
appologize for this poinless rant.

Few will disagree with you about Dr. Anne. Definately not a favorite.
No. Nuh, uh.

It's okay ... you don't have to defend her. She and Duncan had a weird
relationship from the git-go and she was perfectly justified in absolutely
every action she ever took; on the other hand, she was extremely annoying.
I rather wished at times that she were Immortal so Duncan could have taken
her head and released us all from her constant whining and badgering. Or
she could have taken up with Charlie and they could have badgered each
other for an eternity of bliss. They were made for each other. They could
make guest appearances on Highlander. The Badgerers ... kind of like The
Whiners on SNL.

That's wot immies do by definition.

Most stiffs do that. If he returned, she would not be grieving.
(She wasn't supposed to be Tessa)
Got that right!
(He gave her

A fate worse than death.
(he called her *on

Agree, not on, really, he should have popped out in front of her in a dark
alley and go "Boo!"
(she saw the

Gee, I thought it was one of the few fights where the guys actually looked
like they wanted to kill each other. Others pay good money to see that. She
was extremely fortunate.

Badger in public, so shall ye reap...

Personally not, but I am old-fashioned that way.

Oh, lucky man!

Wrong, killing comes naturally to most physicians.
(Read Strong Poison,

As soon as I have finished my Beano.

And that is supposed to be a defense?
I love a good scuffle. Thank you.
