    Great to see her again on TV. But the show will have trouble with Billy Burke as the leading actor.

    Hell yeah! But didn't they say in some of the promos that her character was dead? I guess I either don't remember well or Charlie was misinformed. Love Elizabeth Mitchell and so glad to have her back on tv.

    Great. They need one or two more known names in the series.

    Agree. They should kill her character at the end of S1.

  30. DarthLocke41 July 2012 at 02:20

    Hahaha! I think it would be fun if J.H. would appear or join the cast later...I am kind of hoping to get some more..like Mark Pellegrino, Jefferey Pierce, Ken Leung, Jennifer Missoni, Michelle Rodriguez, Greg Grunberg, Amanda Forman, Dominic Monaghan, Carter Maclntyre, Scott Speedman, Marsha Thomson, Sarah Jones (I think she deserves another chance)...I think I would love to see anyone (except Kevin Durand XD)

  31. DarthLocke41 July 2012 at 02:31

    Disagree. His brief appearance in FRINGE (in which the character's past that was mentioned is similar to this role) and how Bad Robot goes about family sagas, makes me think his relationship with his family (especially since the trailer suggests his brother knew about what was going to happen) seems important to the series.

  32. laura33411 July 2012 at 02:58

    It would be fun! Good picks just not M.Rodriquez for some reason there is something about her i don't like..Definitely Greg Grunberg! I fell for him in Alias,i think he would be a good addition..So many people,yet listen to us talking about who would be good in it and were not even sure about a S2,ha!

    Just when I think I've reached a point where nothing that can make me more excited than I already am, for this show, this happens...

    There is some Lost irony going on here. The actress Mitchell replaces in Andrea Roth, who portrayed Harper Stanhope on Lost, AKA - Goodwin's wife!

  38. PrincessD1 July 2012 at 12:29

    yaaaay!!! best casting newws ever!!! im so gonna watch this show!!

    ReplyDelete
  39. DarthLocke41 July 2012 at 13:54

    So I was looking back over casting and I am a bit confused about this particular role. Andrea Roth had also described her character as "the mother of two children". In the Pilot she is seen with little Charlie, Danny, and Uncle Miles in a flash back of the black out on the phone with Ben. So either Roth plays their aunt (and is Miles wife) and the kids where with them instead of their parents during the black out...But the problem with this is that then Elizabeth Mitchell would be their mother and married to Ben, but we see that Ben gets shot and Anna Lisa Philips character, Maggie, seems romantically attached to Ben and sets out with Charlie and Aaron to find Miles. So something is missing or doesn't make sense about these roles...Perhaps Mitchell's character and Ben are divorced?

    Cool beans. I want to like this show and I love Elizabeth. So, I might really get into this show. But all of the things I've been hearing has left me a little underwhelmed but I will give it the standard three episodes to wow me and if it doesn't I'll stream it on netflix someday when I'm uber bored.

    Wow! this sounds more like a soap opera than something Bad Robot would make,lol..Nonetheless it sounds better with each new tidbit that comes out! So Ben's wife Elizabeth has been gone,i wonder why and for how long? That in itself reminds me of Lost,no? Sounds juicy and getting more excited by the day! Where did you find all this good stuff? I haven't seen anything about it...

  45. IvyB1 July 2012 at 15:42

    Actually I went back and both her parents are dead according to Charlie in the second teaser here:

    Maybe she was misinformed or they changed that line in the pilot afterwards.
