A "duh!" moment.

I finally twigged on why the names Orci and Kurtzman sounded familiar to me when I saw their writers credit in the new Star Trek movie.

They used to write for Hercules and Xena. No joke. This is like when Ngila Dickson went from doing the costumes and those shows to winning Oscar's for it with LOTR.

Not to mention, Karl Urban. Never, ever would I have guessed back then that all these New Greeceland actors and crew would be so famous now. *loves it*

At a con back in the day I snagged a picture signed by the three lead actors in Young Hercules - cheesy but I loved that silly little show. Now Ryan Gosling is all famous and shit. I should dig through my stuff and make sure I still have that picture.

Oooh, I hope you find your signed YH photo. I'm jealous!

Found it! It was indeed signed by the actors for young Herc, Iolaus, and Jason. I may have to frame this one and make sure it stays nice.

Yay! Glad you still have it. I would love to have Chris Conrad's auto, but oh well. I recently pulled all my autographed photos out of picture frames and put them in sheet protectors in a notebook. They're easier to show people (and scan as needed) that way.
