[QUOTE="Mark CMG, post: 735095, member: 10479"] Schwimmer, as a Chicago Gaslight theatre alum, has some good connections in the movie industry and will go as far as he wishes, IMO. Aside from being in [i]Six Days and Seven Nights[/i] with Harrison Ford, he has veered more toward cable work when it comes to decent television projects beyond [i]Friends[/i] which generally is a sign that an actor is biding their time and only picking scripts that won't overly embarrasss them. Kudrow, also, has been picky with her choices and I do not expect to see much major work out of either of them until [i]Friends[/i] wraps up, the public has been given the time to realize they are not those characters and they get some quality scripts. It's not like either one is rushed and needs the money. On the other hand, Aniston, Cox and Perry seem to be trying to trade on their success [i]now[/i] which leads me to believe that they've been advised by their agents to grab the brass ring while they still have some star power. That's actually a bad sign for their future, though they may still work beyond the television series. Aniston seems to be showing some folks that she can do more dramtically, Perry does appear to have some comedic depth, and Kudrow has a knack for working with "the right people", so who knows...? LeBlanc has been on thin ice and carried by the other five, seemingly, since season one. There's even been a big push to promote this season as "the one where LeBlanc shows his acting chops" but personally I have not seen it. Admittedly, I only catch the show every couple/few weeks, if that, but I've not been impressed. In regard to Buffy, let it die. Dragging it out will only mean that the good feeling the show has built up for Wheadon will trickle down and diminish his ability to float new and interesting ideas that would be readily accepted. I'd rather see new material from him sooner so that everyone and his mother doesn't get to edit/censor his ability to be innovative. (edited for spelling) [/QUOTE]
