Gillian Anderson Appearance on Letterman: Transcript?
R.W. Rasband
Could some one please send me a transcript on Gillian's appearance
on Dave on 9/30? I think it went *much better* than her first
shot. She was more ready for Dave's dorkiness around beautiful women:)

Its pretty hard not to beat her first appearance since that was the worst
of all time - worst than Madonnas. But even Madonna doesn't come on
and immediately put on a dumb scowl as if she's just waiting to get
back off the stage.
Gillian is an idiot, sounded like an idiot and didn't look that great
either. Plenty of actresses have entertaining appearances on
Letterman.
Gillian is just an eyesore on Letterman.
Don't forget: Letterman rules! and send fan mail to keep your precious
Gillian off Letterman if she's too moronic to do an entertaining appearance.

My opinion of her slid a couple rungs down the ladder after last
year's Emmys (I think it was the Emmys). She acted like a
bubble-head. Then this year, she was the total opposite--a huge scowl
the whole time. I wondered if she had been criticized for the
bubble-head performance, and went to the other end of the spectrum
completely. Do you suppose someone's pulling her strings?

Nah, Gillian is just plain stupid. XFile freaks think she's Intellectually
Drop Dead Gorgeous and make up army of lonely fans for her, but whenever
she pops up on Dave's show, he shows her for the over-rated bimbo that
she is. And the XFreaks got the gall to criticize Dave for Gillian's
lack of smarts.

Well, I don't know much about Gillian or her IQ, but IF she is indeed
not a rocket scientist, then she must be ONE HELL of an actress.

I saw her on Rosie and she seemed pretty normal, - however....
I refuse to watch the X-Files because I can't stand looking at her.
She's not appealling to watch for some reason. She always looks like
she's pouting...or pissed off. I don't think I've seen her smile
once.
My guess is that she doesn't dig the Hollywood scene and doesn't quite
know how to handle attention to herself. And, well, give her an Emmy
and watch her bumble.....duhhhhh....and boy did crap come out of her
mouth. She just can't seem to handle the crowds or something....very
uncomfortable. And Letterman isn't exactly accommodating in that
department...whereas Rosie makes her guests feel more comfortable, and
it helped that they knew each other.
I live in Vancouver, and all the G.A. encounters here seem to be okay.
She's a nice lady, and she's pretty....but just not made for the
Hollywood spotlight, I don't think.
Any other theories????

Yes. I have a theory. We don't want people on TV to look like those in every
day life. They should all be teeth and hair with 1% body fat look like they
stepped out of GQ and playboy. After all when I look around the office place
that's all I see. Charlie's Angels was a great representation of real P.I.s.
Janet Reno, how did she get the job she doesn't even look like anyone on the
cast of "Friends."

In a recent T.V. Guide interview of Gillian Anderson, the interviewer
pointed out that she is infectiously good-natured and personally complex
in her responsibilities as a wife and mother. GA spoke about how her
character goes against her personality in that Scully hardly ever smiles,
while GA giggles intermittently.
Anyone who think GA is unappealing has been brainwashed by Madison
Avenue's and Hollywood's standard of "beauty." GA is one of the most
appealing women on television because of her unique beauty and stunning
acting abilities.

Marlene Blanshay
I certainly don't think she's an idiot. Dave, however, is a less-
than-stellar interviewer, especially with female guests who are not his
friends. Also, not everyone is comfortable in front of a live audience,
adn that's the feeling I got from her. I thought she was kind of shy and
not used to being in front of a large tv audience. Being good in TV or
movies does not guarantee a great talk show presence.

No, that's not it. I already said she's pretty and nice, and by no
means is she fat. In fact, she's very attractive...just as attractive
as most big hollywood stars.
The problem with people like me not liking her has to do with her
apparant attitude towards celebrity. She doesn't look like she's
enjoying her success, and looks/sounds pissed-off all the time. She
could be a 40DD with toothpick-itis, and I still wouldn't watch her
act. It has to do with her public image, which I find unpleasant.
Like I said, people here in Vancouver have had encounters with her and
she is the nicest person...because yes...she is a person...not really
the hollywood type. But, as an entertainment lover, I prefer the
Hollywood types, or even non-Hollywood types who look like they are
enjoying themselves when they win an award or appear on a talk show.
I think an actor's public image and fame goes with the territory of
being successful, and she seems to not care about hers.
Anyway, enough said. Everyone has different tastes in the actors they
like to watch, and I just don't like to watch her.

So what you're saying is you don't like her acting because of what you
perceive as her off-screen attitude towards her celebrity? Yeah, that
makes sense.
Christine Vetukevic
I completely agree. I didn't actually see the show but I read the
transcript from it. Some guests on Letterman's show are treated with the
highest of "dignity" while others especially women who are outspoken, are
treated like "bimbos".

ONE HELL of an actress is now defined as half of Mulder's salary.
Ha ha ha. Chris Carter puts on a big fake smile and compliments Gillian's
acting and then suckers her by giving her only half of Mulder's salary -
and she only gets Canadian dollars!

You don't understand Paula, Gillian's fans are rabid losers, they
threaten to snipe anyone that remotely criticizes Gillian, hence all
the kill Letterman articles that appear whenever Gillian dumbs her
way through an interview. Gillians fans just have incredibly low standards
when it comes to their idol.
Gillian fans are either lesbians or lonely men. They can't handle a different
opinion, notice all the anti-Letterman reaction. They don't want
anyone slamming Gillian but they think they can freely slam Letterman.
The hypocritical nerve. Definite proof that Gillian fans are losers.
Enough said!

Now I haven't seen this appearance, living in Europe as I do. However,
her making fun of Joan Rivers to her Rivers' face before the Emmys gave
me the impression that she is quite intelligent. She did this by making
several clever remarks which Rivers didn't pick up on at all.

Yep. When she recently toured Australia, she gaves some very
entertaining and intelligent interviews. She also handled the crowds
amazingly well considering some of her appearances at shopping centres
attraacted 10 thousand people! Since she does well in both Canada
and Australia perhaps it is the American public she can't stand.

This x-file freak cordially invites you to show yourself to the nearest
exit and throw yourself physically off this newsgroup. We would prefer it
if you would limit your comments to the letterman NG as you obviously are
judging an intelligent woman on the basis of one interview.
I watch Letterman and find it amusing...hysterical on occasion. But the
man has a sense of humor that doesnt appeal to everyone and that many
people are not comfortable with. Gillian is probably one of those people.
She has done quite a few interviews on other shows, notably Rosie
O'Donnell where she proved just how charming and witty she can be.
You are entitled to your own opinion, but I think it was more than a bit
rude for you to post it in a newsgroup you obviously do not belong in. If
you didn't want to be flamed, you should have kept your comments to
yourself.

Uh, this is stupid. Gillian Anderson is a very good actress (IMHO), but
she also started the show with few credits to her name. David Duchovny
was much better known and was chosen to star as Mulder, who was seen
as the center of the show (i.e. HIS character's sister was abducted,
he is the obsessed person who started investigating the X-Files, and
HIS character is the one HER character was supposed to rein in).
Duchovny had a line of tv AND film credits which was quite long, thus
his higher salary is understandable.
Anderson was an unknown, Duchovny was not.

Yeah, fat Gillian needs a lot of publicists to put the spin on after
another disastrous Letterman appearance. As long as there are Gillian
fans - there'll be plenty of blood flowing in the streets - their's -
from being clobbered by people with superior intellect.

Actually she doesn't do well in Canada. The crew hates her, hates
looking after her dumb dog, she's just smoking off in some corner,
whereas Duchovny is shmoozing with all the girls on the set and playing
basketball with the guys.
Gillian is just a cold impersonal woman on the set - it translates very
clearly in all her interviews.
I did read about some of those Australian mob jobs, that *never*
happens in Canada. Get your facts straight before you distort them.
We should all thank Letterman for exposing the *real* Gillian. She's had
two interviews - and she still comes off as cold, impersonal, idiotic,
etc.

This is bullshit and a lie. Not only have two of the producers told me
(independently and months apart) that Gillian Anderson is "the sweetest
person in the world," but a crew person I chatted with last year went on
for an inordinate amount of time describing how much the crew adores her,
because she is so thoughtful to them -- I believe the exact words were,
"the crew would do _anything_ for Gillian, precisely because she never
makes any demands on them at all."
I doubt she's off smoking in some corner; any spare time is spent with
her daughter, who the crew adore too.
If you watch the blooper reels, you will see how much GA laughs and clowns
around. If you read her interviews, you will see how nearly every writer
describes her as giggling and fun and not at all like Scully. If you
watched the Rosie O'Donnell show, you saw a charming young woman who
pulled off with aplomb a toilet joke. And if you ever bother to watch
episodes of the X-Files, you will see a highly talented actress at
work, who well deserved her SAG win and her Emmy nomination.

I personally don't care for the X-files or Gillian Anderson but I thought
she was tolerable on Letterman this past time. I think she is an
attractive actress. As for her talents I couldn't comment since I don't
watch her program.
The reason I don't like her however is entirely due to a comment she made
about Vancouver on a television program (she was basically putting it down
although she did it in a nice way). In her interviews I don't
even think she realizes that she has made a negative comment about
something. As I often do, she makes blunt remarks about things that can
turn people off. Her appearence on Dave helped lessen my negative
feelings for her so I don't understand what all the fuss is about her
appearance.

If we argue on logic alone, you should realize that "biting the big one"
on Dave doesn't necessarily make you stupid. However, playing an
intelligent character doesn't make the actress one herself. I'm not saying
she is or isn't, what I'm saying is that none of us here can make a
judgement of her intelligence just from the fact that she plays an
intelligent character on the X-files but leaves much to be desired
on Letterman and Jon Stewart.
People who watch Letterman can name a few guests who didn't shine
though are considered intelligent people. Let's face it, you don't
go to Letterman with the same attitude for Leno or Charlie Rose, etc.
Letterman wants to get on your case, and his audience wants that to an
extent too. Gillian Anderson doesn't mix well with Letterman (at least
not yet) and I think she'd be more comfortable with a Leno, etc.
The problem here is that most of y'all think it's either his fault
or hers. Truth is probably that it's neither. Now let's all kiss 'n'

only a complete perenium -- that's somewhere between the butthole and the

Hey! I take exception to this! I enjoy GA and I also like Dave. I
don't hold any malice for his ribbing her about her show. And I enjoy
her character on the X-Files. To me, as long as a person doesn't do
immoral things in their personal lives, fine. I enjoy them in the
venue for which they are known and have excelled. Dave - The Late
Show. Gillian - The X-Files. And I'm not a lonely old man. IMHO, GA
hasn't had enough experience with stardom to properly play the game.

Excuse me? Where the hell did you get the idea that one's acting
abilities are measured by their pay? Do you think that Jim Carrey is
a better actor than GA, just because he gets 20 million $ for a movie?
She IS one hell of an actress. Jeez, your braincell count is low.

Excuse me?? Are you TRYING to start a flame war between Alt.tv.letterman
and alt.TV.Xfiles? I am a fan of Gillian Anderson. She is a fine actress
who does the stoic, emotionallystrong woman very well..Had you ever
actually watched the X-files, instead of bashing a show you have obviously
never seen, you would know this. Let me repeat. I am a fan of Gillian
Anderson. I am not a lesbian. I am female and am not lonely. So where
do I fit in you definition. I am an intellectual, who has probably red
more books this year than you have in your life, so I am not a lamer. I
am also not a loser.
I do not snipe at anyone who presents a well-thought out criticism of
anyone. I DO try to set straight those who make broad generalizations
about subjcets in which they hold no knowledge, broadly flaming
individuals and groups they are ignorant about.
Let me also state that I have a well developed (though dry) sense of humor
and I have not ever flamed Letterman. I do enjoy watching his show. So
turn off your flamethrower buddy, and get a life of your own.

Agreed, Paula! Gillian is well liked by cast and crew and by the
fans. She's even attended some of the XFiles fan conventions and
signs autographs until everyone has one. Not every actor takes time
out of her/his busy schedule to meet with the fans AND get writer's
cramp signing tons of autographs!! I wish people would stop
spreading terrible rumors about people who do nothing but want to
entertain us. I guess they're just jealous of her and her success.
Go Gillian! I think you're great!! And sour grapes to the rest of
you who are saying terrible and untrue things about her.

"do _anything_for Gillian" So that means lying down in the middle of

Actually *4* producers have told me (independently and months apart)
that Gillian Anderson can't act her way out of a paper bag. Naturally
since more producers told me this - you lose - and I win.

You keep naming minor interviews. It doesn't matter how many useless
excuses you come up with. We keep coming back to Gillian's infamous
two lousy interviews on LETTERMAN. And we all know how she killed
her career with those two stinkers.

So how many movie offers does she have? Big zero. I've gotten more
offers than she has.
Don't worry Gillian will throw you a fish, you've acted like the

Some very devoted fans keep telling me that Gillian is fat mainly because
she just had a baby - but I thought that was three years ago. Alright
you tell me precisely how long ago?
Pamela Anderson and Jane Seymour didn't have any problems losing their
excess baby weight quickly. Gillian benefits from the personal trainer
that Chris Carter got her for Christmas but she needs more willpower
pushing herself away from the turkey table.
If Gillian isn't fat, then how come she's always wearing those baggy
suits on the show. There's plenty of cop shows around and the women don't
always wear the baggies.
Sorry but you X-Files people are dead wrong on this, Gillian is overweight
and her acting is over-rated also. Now Duchovny rocks! He's carrying the
show.
Peace, just had to let you know.

Since you seem to have all this inside "knowledge", if she is such a bad

Come on, folks, the Gillian-basher is bashing Gillian in order to get you
(us?) riled up. You can tell because the posts are written in that
I-just-failed-ninth-grade-English style that colors all the lamest of
trolls (I'm beginning to formulate the opinion that all the blatant, lame
trolls that show up on Usenet are the product of one 12-year-old with bad
social and language skills, or perhaps a group of sociologists pretending
to be maladjusted 12-year-olds in order to conduct some sort of behavioral
study ... because, frankly, the thought that there can be so _many_
idiots out there kinda scares me). Just ignore the twit -- reasoning with
some so deeply afflicted by sour grapes is just a waste of time.

I've hardly ever watched the X-Files, but this seems to be an argument in
Gillian Anderson's favor to me. If the crew hates her because she spends
some time with her baby, screw the crew. If you hire a star of
child-bearing age and she has a baby, of course she's going to spend some
time with the baby.

The only time behavior merits comment is when someone goes out of their
way to be an asshole. Watching your kid and smoking are not cardinal
sins. I'd bet some days they'd like to toss her and her kid into the

Someone must have been in the Bizarro Jerry world when making

the X Files episodes being shot. Gillian is nothing less
than incredible to everyone around her. For fans that want
autographs Gillian will go over to them due to crew holding
them way back in the weeds so to speak. She talks and speaks
to them while doing it. Dave on the other hands will make
a bee line for his trailor to avoid everyone.
As for her daughter being a nuisance. Have you ever heard
of nanny ? They both bring their dogs on set and if anyone
is a pain to crew it is David. Gillian went on a local
Vancouver telethon to raise money for charity. Dave
I don't think so . Gillian will pose for photos to
and from the set. Dave pose for a picture , yeah right
females only. I don't think that interviews are
a sign of a bad actor/ actress . Letterman is a jerk
to all females that are on his show. There is a big
difference in hearing on what goes on and actually
being there. Maybe someone needs to take a flight
to Vancouver to get the real deal . Later J

They are in movies or shows requiring them to run around in bathing

They are business suits. This isn't Baywatch, it's an FBI show. I

This is really sad. I certainly wouldn't consider either of you an
expert on Gillian Anderson's personality. Who cares how the interview
on Letterman went. The facts are that Gillian has won prestigious
awards and nominations for her acting, and she has millions of fans who
love to watch her. Letterman knows this and that's why he had her on
his show. I certainly wouldn't watch his pathetic attempts at being
remotely amusing, if his show didn't have guests. Can you imagine just
him and Paul doing their self absorbed drivvle for an hour. I don't
care how the crews like her. I like her. She keeps them employed, and
she more than likely has a nanny taking care of her child, and she gets
paid for that kind of thing.

Geez, I hate to add to this inane discussion, but I just had to say
that I agree with you. GA looked especially thin--almost TOO thin--in
Teliko. I mean, she looks great, but I don't think she needs to be
trying to lose any more weight (if that is indeed what's going on).

Yet another poor soul brainwashed into thinking that the *only
acceptable* body shape for women is the overchested, underweight child-waif.
Grow up. Women come in *all* shapes and sizes. And anyone who thinks
Gillian is 'fat' is erroneous. She's at a *healthy* body weight and
obviously has a good image of herself. (Anyone who has to get their
breasts enlarged a la Pamela Anderson Lee obviously doesn't have such
a good image of herself.) More power to Gillian!

Paula, thanks for posting this and I couldn't agree more. I was lucky enough
to have dinner lately with someone who worked on the show and he went out of

I don't think she's *that* overweight. Its her big breasts (surgical?)

Absolutely. He's very polite to Drew Barrymore, for example, although I
think most of that is on the hope that he'll get another tit show.
He's also nice to Teri Garr, though she hasn't been on in AGES.

These men are all character actors. It is also uncommon for women who are
primarily known as character actors to have their weight commented on, and
quite common for men known as sex symbols to have their weight commented
on.
There has recently been a lot of discussion about Keanu Reeve's weight
gain, and I doubt any change in David Duchovny's appearance would go
un-dissected. I will grant that this is a relatively recent phenomenon,
perhaps caused by the feminist movement and the increasing visibility of
gay men, many of whom, myself included, have *no* philosophical problem
with the idea of men as sexual objects.
It is somewhat ironic that perhaps the most tangible result of the feminist
movement is the objectification of the male body.
David, with one more reason to be grateful to feminists.

1. Gillian is NOT overweight. What rock have you been hiding under?
Did you watch "Home?" Did you watch the Premiere this season?
Helllllloooooo?????
She's lost all the weight from her baby. Just because she wears
baggy suits does not mean that she is overweight. she's a woman in a
serious profession. Most of the women I know in my field
dress in that style. It's part of the whole "being taken seriously"
issue that plagues women). Of course, my boss doesn't trot around like
David Hasselhoff in a Speedo, either. Thank God. He's about a million
pounds overweight and the thought of him sporting that look might
kill me.
2. Maybe Gillian is overweight to the camera, or by "Hollywood"
standards, which means she doesn't look like she just escaped the death
camp by hiding in the woods, living on fruits and twigs. But in real
life, you ain't seen overweight until you go visit one of those
"Old Country Buffet" places. Obviously, those of you who think
GA is overweight have been spending too much time spanking to Miss July.
3. What does her weight have to do with her acting? She's talented.
She's bright. She's very pretty. But most of her critics are so shallow
that they - probably not so bright and good looking as she is - can only
come up with is "she's overweight." Well, DD is short. There,
I said it. He's short. Of course, his fans could give a shit less that
he is shorter than average. I don't hear anyone suggesting we put him
on the rack a few minutes before every episode.
Lay off of GA and her weight. Find a real issue or go back
to playing with yourselves. Maybe what really bothers you is your
overwhelming belief (and probably with good reason) that anyone as
good as GA wouldn't give you a second glance if your hair was made of
cocaine and she was an addict.

what the hell are you talking about? okay let me get this straight, if a
woman isn't a size 4 she's overweight? so the next question must be should all
women be anorexic or just those on tv? the average woman is between a 10 and
14 dress size! people come in all sorts of shapes and sizes not everyone is a
tiny little waif (thank god!).

i'm guessing that gillian maybe wears a size 8. she isn't overweight you
bonehead. she is a beautiful woman with a normal woman's body. and why do you
think her acting is over-rated? could it be because she's playing a strong
intelligent women instead of a simpering little twit?

Excuse me? What "all her interviews"? Again I gotta say this, but
please, cheap liars like you should go to www.cbcstereo.com and listen
to 2 interviews and one hour-lenght radio show with her as the DJ.
Reading tabloids doesn't give you the right to dub her as cold and
impersonal. My God, where do all these know-it-alls come from.
Do you know Gillian? Do you know anyone who knows her. No you don't.
And here you are being the expert witness on the personality of a
woman whom you've never met, much less don't like, and are therefore
not interested in her. And yet you come here and post this shit claiming
you know her. Get a life, and preferrably a brain.

Gillian Anderson is not overweight.
Gillian Anderson is a fantastic actor.
Gillian Anderson is a lot of fun to be around. (Ref: TV Guide interview
in June, I think)
The X-Files would be Baywatch meets the FBI if it weren't for the
personality, acting abilities, and honest and realistic stature of
Gillian Anderson.
Women are tired of being compared to the unrealistic figures of most
women in the entertainment industry and media. It's sad that many
models are being hired for acting jobs when they have no acting
abilities whatsoever. Thank God for Gillian Anderson. Who is, BTW,
not overweight!

Teryl Lee Speirs Smith
: Sorry but you X-Files people are dead wrong on this, Gillian is overweight
I would hardly say Gillian is overweight. The problem with your
perception of her weight is that you are comparing her to woman actresses
who are all underweight - a problem which is just as serious to ones
health as being overweight. Gillian looks as if she is in her ideal
weight/body fat ratio for a woman her size. Other actresses should gain
some weight so that they too are in their healthy body-fat ratio range.

Carey and Goodman are leading men, and Goodman has had the lead in several
movies. Hardly my definition of "character actor."

Any actress with even a modicum of good looks can expect to be creeped
out by Dave, except when they're single. Dave is scared witless of single
women. But flash a wedding ring, and Dave will drool like a rabid dog.
I don't watch Dave anymore, I don't want to see him crack up on the air.

Sorry, I don't mean to be rude. I was under the impression that it was
the other way around, and that Roberts sent Dave notes and asked him out
repeatedly for a period of time, but Dave refused. She said so herself
on the show, unless she was making it up, but it didn't seem like it,
because she mentioned it several times. She acted slightly miffed, cause
he wouldn't even go to the movies with her. She said she wasn't going to
ask him anymore, but then I think she did again, anyway. Apparently Dave
has no interest in going out with 'velcro woman.' (That's easy on, easy
off.) But Dave has continued to be most gracious to her on the show, and
there was that kiss a couple of years ago, which was, well, it was... it
was a show stunt, no doubt, designed to drive his girlfriend wild with
jealousy. They were probably having a disagreement and she was
threatening to start seeing other men. As you can see, I have a vivid
imagination. :)

Aaaaah! I'm found out! Yes, I admit it, I am a lonely lesbian man.
I've tried to hide it all this time, making people believe I was really an

Ever see John Candy in "Only The Lonely"? We were expected to believe he
was a romantic leading man taking Alley Sheedy to bed. And John Goodman
in "Born Yesterday" as Melanie Griffith's lover? These men were, let's
face it, FAT! And it was considered perfectly normal for their characters
to carry on as romantic leads with beautiful, young (thin) women. The
studio honchos who greenlighted them never batted an eye. Of COURSE a
large man can be considered sexy and romantic. But put a fat woman in
their place and, oh my God! The head shaking would be felt world-wide.
The double-standard is alive and well.

Actually, counting Carey as an actor at all is somewhat of an
overstatement. He's a comedian who has a sitcom. I still contend that
Goodman is essentially a character actor, not a leading man.
