Jeri Ryan - [Apr-1999] - interview

[@infowazz]

she is so worthy of all admiration. i hope she continues to have success.

[@Bellocks1]

What I love about Jeri Ryan is that she just seems so fun and wacky and has a great sense of humour.

[@AtsfMike559]

When I first saw the Borg on Star Trek TNG, I thought OK, So they got a bunch of shopping carts in the LA riverbed, took them to a recycler, smashed them into a cube, painted them black, and put Christmas lights on it. And it nearly took over the Enterprise and the universe for two seasons. Then Jeri Ryan came along, on Voyager, and changed my perspective of the Borg. I ended up actually liking and respecting the Borg now. Because I have good reason to do so. Jeri is the bomb! Mike in Fresno, Ca

[@RaptorClaws24]

Loved Seven of Nine, her character was intelligent as well as beautiful. Voyager needed something to keep it going and to help it develop more interesting plots. Scorpion, Dark Frontier, some of Janeway's best scenes were played opposite Seven of Nine. It helped flesh her out as a devoted and courageous Captain and because of all the following encounters with the Borg, she also became the Captain/Admiral who crippled them. Seven was an invaluable character to the series.

[@meknatis]

I just happened on this clip. Jeri Ryan (used to be Lynn Zimmerman) but she is a beautiful woman. I remember her from school and being in girl scouts with her in Paducah, KY. She was always someone to admire...

[@slus90]

I'm impressed by how knowledgeable she was at the beginning of her 7 of 9 part.

[@cinemaplaylist]

Just think about it, usually when great individuals talk about their primary inspirations - it's occasionally their mother, but it usually also includes other thinkers, mentors, philosophers, artists, teachers, friends, leaders, contemporaries, etc, etc. Especially as they grow older. Mothers may bear children, but great thinkers bear ideas that effect entire civilizations and societies.

[@boy040560]

JR intelligently answered his close-to-rude stupid questions. way to go Jeri! i love you! we're both music fans of the 80s.

[@PlayNiceFolks]

I remember seeing something where some cell phone designer said that some of their ideas came from the days when they watched the original star trek series.

[@billtheswordguy5914]

So he insults her work, her fan base, her intelligence "what are they, just freaks?" he says. They are great, very passionate, very loyal. she says... and very unemployed... he says. Your kind of a loser...but thats okay...she says Interview is over.... Well...I guess trekkies are an easy target. Props to Jeri Ryan for sticking by her fans!

[@mikeosullivan3699]

In what world are Star Trek fans largely unemployed? Engineers, scientists, computer programmers... they probably skew rich.

[@sluggotg]

Jeri is soo Funny! I just love her!

[@laxxla]

That wasn't what he meant. He does explain what he was on about. There are specific character types throughout the show eg Kirk, Riker & Paris are similar in some ways.

[@Brady2k10]

i never used to be a trekkie infact i rmr when i was little i couldnt stand star trek, now, i regret saying tht and missing those shows... now i watch repeats because the star trek series, all of them are fucking brilliant. Its so nice to just sit down for a while and get lost in an episode of star trek, my favs are the next generation and voyager

[@swcallow98]

Hearing people from the 90s talk about the internet is just... adorable. Even if it is '99...

[@MrGoalissimo]

jeri ryan looks stunning in this interview

[@wulf-3596]

It takes two words to describe Jeri Ryan, "smoking" and "hot". The fact that she is a talented actress doesn't hurt at all either.

[@duncanmerritt5877]

“Girls on Film” was Duran Durans later stuff???? It was the 3rd single off of their first album?

[@635Flash]

I remember Dark Skies. That's where i fell in love with Jeri Ryan.

[@Terryfan]

I love Jeri Ryan she is awesome

[@PaulTheSkeptic]

Man she looks great.

[@keep_calm_and_trust_carter]

I can't believe he asked WHY Jeri Ryan's character was called Seven of Nine! This dude needs to do his research!

[@aaronjames5276]

Speaking of fainting, if I were told by Jeri Ryan that we were a "perfect fir" that's exactly what would happen to me. :)

[@djbb975]

I am so in love with Seven of Nine.. err... Jeri Ryan

[@vsboy2577]

she played her role perfectly

[@mottledbrain]

Seven had some great lines. Remember "Fun shall now commence."? (She was dealing with some children and couldn't really relate.)

[@djfritz2001]

Kilborn was soooo sure he was going to be the next letterman. He even joked about Jon Stewart getting to ride the daily show into the ground because it would obviously crash after he left. A decade later and nobody even knows who Craig Kilborn was, expect if you used to watch Sports Center maybe....

[@RandomAussieGuy87]

Jeri Ryan handled herself really well. Good on her!

[@ladamyre1]

That's Craig Killborn on The Late Late Show; he got it right after he got fired from Comedy Central's "The Daily Show", said something about "blow me" and the country went ballistic. He started that show and had quite a following, which is why he got this show. It lasted a little while, but Stewart took off like a rocket on The Daily Show and Killborn after 5 years lost The Late Late Show to some foreigner.

[@pstpupful]

he's still a tool

[@ladamyre1]

David Gentry Agreed. IVY league flavor to guy... was disgusting to see Seven fawning over him. Then again he was a media darling at the time, so...

[@YManCyberDude]

Killborn just always came off as a narcissistic jerk to me. I must not have been the only one because he's not even found on the "Where are they now ?" lists . . .

[@britneylopez226]

do you have the Kim Smith interviews?

[@Hanmahandle]

Where are you now?

[@steveN111333]

I love jeri

[@Dane_Youssef]

I think you just became my personal hero, Conan.

[@Brady2k10]

shes hot and shes a good actor i still enjoy watching her as seven of nine, shes brilliant.

[@SageSeliah]

Actually Star Trek was which made me make the choice. I was always interested in many things, so I didn't know what to do with my life. My father is an amateur astronomer, so "the stars" was always "near" me :) But Trek was which made me decide to learn astrophysics.

[@enjoythesilence29]

Love love love omg she is so cool

[@Ancaneon]

The host is a genius. He insults 90% of the audience.

[@YManCyberDude]

You have a strange idea of what it is to be a "genius" . . .

[@Ancaneon]

Ever heard of sarcasm?

[@YManCyberDude]

That's not "genius" . . . That's "Asshole" . . .

[@Mxlsptlk]

She is quite a beautiful woman, but I do also appreciate her acting ability, No, seriously, I do. I bet you think i'm full of crap, but I like her character very much.

[@Dmviewing]

amen brother

[@skorpionsks]

She has a great smile. :)

[@therealchickentender]

She's rad.... but I have to point out, with her claiming to be a huge Duran Duran fan... "Girls On Film" that he mentioned actually was on the first album, while Rio came out 2 albums later. I'm kinda sorry that I know that, but oh well.

[@Stuuuu]

Yea.... wow.... no wonder I didn't recognize the show

[@akan1]

Greetings. She has such a beautiful smile. OL.

[@valglass12]

"Involved in the campaign" You could say that. Look up what she did in the summer of 2004 and you'll see what I mean.

[@arsnel366]

I like her borg deep voice better then her normal voice

[@flowertrue]

Seven of Nine was SO cool she actually overcame my innate hatred for women who are MUCH more beautiful than me and made me like her

[@at90percent]

She is more cool than she is beautiful, which would seem virtually impossible.

[@chrischan2395]

Wow!...

[@genedellasala6824]

When 6 of 9 came onto Voyager, the show was greatly improved. She gave the best Borg jobs ever!

[@Sacha862]

-I've not been on the web in a while- *Something you will never here these days.

[@jeandeaux7624]

what ever happened to Craig Killborn?

[@lillys9876]

17 years ago. Had a following online before it was cool.

[@Lorden]

Craig Kilborn is hilarious. He can actually talk to [hot] women and make them laugh and smile and get into him. He also has a sense of humor. If you're bashing him you're probably just jealous that he can do that with hot chicks and you can't. You might want to take some notes and learn from him.

[@bestestbrian]

This, young'uns, was The Daily Show, before John Stewart.

[@mitchreno3762]

This was filmed with a potatoe

[@cinemaplaylist]

Personally, in my opinion, their is not much point in saying one gender is greater or inferior than another. It is like saying blue objects are better than red objects. The criteria for what makes one object better than another has to do with far more than color. Likewise, what makes one human great or not probably has to do with far more than what gender it is.

[@SuperCat]

Exactly Jeri Ryan is a real lady...

[@910burns]

What is Star Trek?

[@MrMZaccone]

Girls On Film, "later" Duran Duran? It was only their third single! Seriously Jeri?

[@Sage2000]

Shes great, not only polite, but great, when she described the Star Trek fans as passionate and loyal. That host had no idea at all abou what she was doing there. "Are you a vulcan? Are you the Spock?" The way he tries so hard to be funny is really annoying. Somethimes ignorance is not a blessing I guess.

[@mharbaugh]

Now I remember why Craig Kilborn got canceled...

[@IamI3rian]

Who is this guy, and does he still even have a job? I've never seen or heard of him pretty much ever.

[@snowdog03]

I noticed these starlets kept coming back for interviews which meant he was doing something right. Kilby was just better than Fergwad or Stewwart. He was much more entertaining doing those shows and not Short, Ugly & Swarthy.

[@fliegeroh]

Who is that guy?

[@AngryRam1]

Its called 'American Television' :) awesome init?

[@Davez621]

Geez, could you make the video quality any worse? I've seen recordings from the 1950s that are better quality than this.

[@JoseRodriguez-un2kc]

Shes got that Denise Richards mixed with Rachel McAdams look

[@MIKE1236936]

Rachel McAdams,that's the one .I was trying to remember who she resembled.

[@MillionthUsername]

She called him a loser at the end. Gotcha!

[@Chamchamcham10]

I know she's hot, but didn't realize how gorgeous she is until I see this... how is Craig Killborn have a talk show. He's boring, in this interview he doesn't seem to have a clue of what he's talking about, and he resorts to take a somewhat generalized view of people that watches Star Trek can only be geeks (one and proud of it) and decided just to bash them because he might think that's how the public would react best to.

[@matthewfrazer5075]

Hi there Good interview, from Matt Frazer Worked on several movies in 1990's Pulp Fiction Jack Rabbit Slim Heat Bank Scene Say It Isn''t So Heather Cut my hair hope can get autograph soon thanks few pictures on my page

[@genericusername337]

Marlon Pagtakhan?

[@cinemaplaylist]

Furthermore, it doesn't really follow that if one thing is the mother for another it must be superior. Humans evolved from primates, but of course I'm sure you don't think that must mean primates are superior to humans. Glass comes from sand, but of course that doesn't mean sand must be superior to glass. I don't doubt that mothers are important, but I also don't doubt the importance of the individual or the great thinker or mentors that inspired them

[@stevefowler1787]

Damn Jeri is nothing but smoking hot!!! Just crazy hot...and she seems so normal too.

[@Stacy55ish]

She's so hot.

[@alin1975]

I have seen plenty of people make fun of Trekkers in a good way, but this wasn't it. He didnt even bother to learn the most basic things about his guest. Then he tried to get her to call her fans weirdos. I saw something similar with Kate once, and she just held her ground and defended her fans. One ended up with almost no useful information, no interesting conversation, only an attempt to get a cheap laugh at the expense of the fans. What a horse's ass that guy is.

[@FLAME456X]

@petrashin1941 actualy its the oppisate cuz without the beutiful Jerri Ryan the Seven Of Nine character we all know and love in star trek voyager wouldent exist

[@prausch65]

Man o Man O Chavis is she smokin' out of costume!

[@DiesMali]

Jeri is amazing. This host, however, is not worthy of assimilation. He would detract from perfection.

[@mushroomshrub]

This kind of reminds me of an interview Brent Spiner did for BBC breakfast. He stuck up for us Trekkies when the idiotic interviewers started stereotyping. At least SOME people get it.

[@NathanChisholm041]

look at those lovely funbags....

[@foxtrot_101]

someone got triggered.

[@DominicRiv]

She has a nice laugh.

[@LisaJaneCobb]

Ha ha I love Jeri!

[@wadyano]

ww. a decade already

[@In0tuhTR3KKi3]

@DiesMali I was going to say, i hope she's not assimilating him.

[@Cheburashka207]

All hail Jery!!!!Resistance is futile!!!!

[@CmdrTobs]

I hate the way ignorance is respected because he is interviewing someone who is not off the new Art nuvo Jewish-Italian directed romance.

[@LyadinDima]

I think I like her personality as a borg better. Hah But then again I could care less about celebrities. I mean, not like I would ever befriend one, marry one, or possibly even meet one. They exist only on the television to me! :P

[@mushroomshrub]

@Janpeanut My dad has a Chinese student who calls herself seven, he calls her seven of nine. She dosn't get it.

[@Ienjoyinlife]

whats she doing at the end, my wife!!! must talk to her about those last seconds ;)

[@davidsimons1377]

She's so gorgeous. Her resistance from me would be futile!

[@datacipher]

He's certainly acting like one here. He's playing that "I'M too good for the little star trek nerd thing....what a bunch of freaks huh?" Yeah, you're the coolest Kilborne....

[@calderwis]

If she's the "Spock", what's Tuvac's role?

[@jutau]

i haven't a clue who he is and I bet most scifi fans out there are way more successful than he is. Even with a talkshow he's still not known.

[@jayjgregory4129]

seven of FINE

[@mooxim]

she'd make a better talk show host.

[@helen937]

weird to see her as a real person. when he said 'u have a lot of lipstick lesbian fans?' I expected her to say 'that is irrelevant' lol

[@cinemaplaylist]

"It's my theory that God created women to make up for his first mistake, MEN." I think their is plenty of evidence to counter that claim - consider that most of the greatest people in history have been men. But, this is probably because the majority of societies have existed as patriarchies - societies where women would lack power and oppurtunities. However, if God does exist, and does not favor men, you must admit it is questionable why he would allow them to accomplish so much to begin with.

[@JustineM1533]

there is no dust

[@SuperTrolltastic]

@petrashin1941 indeed

[@Steve10578]

I think you got your negative marks for language and not the fact that poeple don't agree with you. LOL

[@cdanteg67]

I'm sorry. I was making a sarcastic comment on KoN69's homophobic comments. If you look at what his comments, you'll understand.

[@Renji9031]

WTF!?!?! I leave for three days to fight Hollows and come back to weird gossip like this?? I'd rather deal with the Hollows.
