Yes she was Cleopatra on two episodes of Xena. Gina was also Nebula (pirate queen) on Hercules who had a relationship with Hercules' sidekick Iolaus which is VERY akin to the relationship Zoe has with Wash(strong warrior woman with supportive male partner who is not as martially skilled -- that martially, as in weapons and fighting folks).

She was also in an episode of CSI:Miami where she plays a prison warden.

But what you Browncoats may not be aware of is the fact that she is a very talented singer -- she was in a Tony nominated Broadway production of Rocky Horror Picture Show a few years back.
My guess is that she played Magenta but I am not sure on that (I saw her in TV during the Tony awards).

Thanks, TUD! I thought no one was going to mention Adam on X-Files. It took me a while to warm up to Jane because I kept thinking of him as a spooky alien guy!

Alan Tudyk had a great part in "28 Days" with Sandra Bullock. Anyone who hasn't seen that -- check it out. He's great in it!

Someone mentioned One Life to Live, but for details: Nathan played Joey Buchanon -- infamous as the Joey who had a torrid affair with his mother's arch-nemesis and former step-mother, Dorian.

I've watched OLTL for over 20 years and now that I work at home I watch at least 2xweek. And I am totally without shame about it.

You know I was just watching this movie tonight on TBS. I was shocked when I recognized Nathan. Especially when he tried to sucker punch Brendan Fraser and got punked. Not once, but THREE times. Noooooooooooo. Not Cappy!!!!! Not against George of the Jungle. Nooooooooo.

I'll just erase that from my memory.

(And chant over and over to myself that actors are separate from their roles ).

I shaved off my beard for you, devil woman!

'Blast From The Past' surprised me by being a very solid and charming movie, one with such a degree of unironic, straight forward charm that it was almost being flung back to the days of Capra, or at least the genius 'Groundhog Day'.

And I did not know that was Nathan Fillion. And now I am compelled to find it and watch it again.

But the best part is still the bit where Christopher Walken dances with his wife, any opportunity for a little bit of Ronny to show through in him, I applaud. All hail Christopher Walken. All hail the next director who puts him in a film where he plays a nice, decent person who can dance instead of another (admittedly most likely brilliant) jittery freak in a mediocre to bad film.

As I've said before and been ignored, Adam Baldwin provides a voice (I think Tohru, but I'm not sure) on The Jackie Chan Adventures cartoon.

Ron Glass also appeared in Star Trek Voyager, as an alien in the episode "Nightingale."

There have been listings before under unexpected shiny moments.
Jewel was in another show that I liked that got canceled...7Days, she played a young psychic that ended up having a crush on Frank.
Alan was so cute in an old General Mills cereal commercial as a stock boy with a bow tie.
Adam in D.C. Cabs....hi-larious!
