Some Flashpoint news [8:30 AM ET]

It would appear that Jessica's debut on Flashpoint is coming this month. From what I have been reading, the weather in Toronto has been really bad and that has delayed the new seasons episodes from airing. In any case, here are a few bits I have found.

CBS released this photo yesterday of Jessica with a caption...

The following article had a mention of Jessica (thanks to Wraithfodder's Lair)

New York Daily Vue (from NY Daily News newspaper)

Feb 01 2009 – Flashpoint’s Colantoni gets fed information

Crew people sometimes know things before actors are on a series, says Flashpoint star Enrico Colantoni. “I hear I might actually go out on a date,” the actor says of his divorced character, Sgt. Greg Parker. “I got that from the hair and makeup people.” According to him, the only person who really has the inside scoop on his CBS series about a team of elite crisis-managing cops “is the craft services lady. She seems to know everything.” He got info on the new character being played by Jessica Steen – filing in for Amy Jo Johnson, who has been on maternity leave – by visiting the craft services table as well. In the story arc developing this month, Steen is “sort of the catalyst that disrupts the flow of the team.”

Jennifer "Pilot" Chase fills in for the Pink Power Ranger [2:00 AM ET]

Beginning this January, Jessica will begin to shoot episodes of the CBS (USA) and CTV (Canada) TV series Flashpoint. Jessica will apparently play a character that fills in for the series female lead's character played by Amy Jo Johnson (who recently had a baby). Amy Jo Johnson is most famous for playing the "Pink Power Ranger" in the hit children's series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. The air dates will be posted when they are known. The first season of Flashpoint aired this past summer for 9 episodes and the show will return for a 2nd season on CBS and CTV on Friday, Jan. 9, 2009 @ 9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT. (For those scratching their heads at the headline, Jessica played a character by the name of Jennifer "Pilot" Chase in the 1987-88 childrens TV series Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future, which in a few ways was a similiar show (but much better written) to the Power Rangers.

Jessica has a "Secret" [2:00 AM ET]

Jessica recently finished working on a movie for the Lifetime Channel titled "A Nanny's Secret." The movie stars Haylie Duff (sister of Hillary Duff), Jon McLaren and Eric Johnson (Smallville). The movie was written by Christine Conradt who coincidentally wrote 4 movies that another actress (also from Toronto) that I do a web site for, Cynthia Preston is in. "A Nanny's Secret" should air sometime next Spring on Lifetime.

NCIS Memorial [2:00 AM ET]

On the November 11, 2008 episode of NCIS titled "Collateral Damage" the show paid a little homage to Jessica's character Agent Paula Cassidy who was killed on the show last year in the season 4 episode "Grace Period." In the November 11th episode they show a wall of officers that were killed in the line of duty and on the wall they used a photo of Jessica (as Paula Cassidy). Click the links below to see 2 stills from the episode. (Special thanks to Tesub Calle for the heads up.)

Jessica recently finished working on the episode "Seismic Shifts" of the CBC TV drama Heartland (in Canada only).

The episode titled "Corporate Cowgirls" airs on Nov 2nd and the episode "Holding Fast" on Nov 9th). After those 2 episodes air, Jessica should be appearing in at least 2 more episodes this season.

More Heartland [4:30 AM ET]

Jessica is back in Canada shooting a couple more episodes of the CBC TV drama Heartland. The two episodes she is currently working on are "Divorce Horse" and the other is titled "Seismic Shifts." That makes 6 episodes so far in season 2 that she appears in. The second season of Heartland returns this Fall (in Canada) on October 5, 2008.

Vipers on Sci-Fi Channel (and video) [4:30 AM ET]

vipers coverA "movie" that Jessica has a part in called "Vipers" will air this Sunday, September 21st at 9:00PM ET. The movie stars Tara Reid, Corbin Bernsen, Mercedes McNab and the late Don S. Davis (of Stargate). The movie will also be released on DVD this Tuesday, September 23rd. You can order the DVD from Amazon.

Considering the plot, (genetically enhanced snakes that are on the loose after a break-in at a medical research laboratory) the cast, (Tara Reid, Corbin Bernsen etc...) the fact that it is premiering on the Sc-Fi Channel and then 2 days later released on video.... and with a video cover like that (as you can see on the left) well... I don't think we will be seeing any Academy Award nominations any time soon if you know what I mean.

Jessica returns to Heartland [5:30 PM ET]

Heartland gets a 2nd season, jPod on the other hand... [10:35 PM ET]

I have good news and bad news. The good news is that the CBC drama Heartland (that Jessica has a recurring role in) has been renewed for an 18 episode 2nd season which starts shooting in May. The other series that Jessica also had a recurring role in, jPod was not renewed for another season.

NCIS - Paula Cassidy Marathon on USA Network? [10:00 AM ET]

I have a keyword search on my Tivo that looks for any shows that Jessica appears in and I just discovered something interesting. On Saturday, March 15th the USA Network cable channel appears to be having an NCIS "Agent Paula Cassidy" (Jessica's character) episode marathon as part of their 10 episode NCIS marathon that starts at 1PM that day. Starting at 5PM, the USA Network is airing in order every episode Jessica appeared in (including the brief "via satellite" appearance ones). It is too much a coincidence to be anything other than a Paula Cassidy Marathon considering her episodes appear scattered over 4 seasons.

All times listed below are Eastern. I am not sure if they would be the same in Pacific time so check your local listings. (Note: that my Tivo currently says Jessica's episodes start at 4:00PM but USA Networks site says they start at 5:00PM. I will post an update if the schedule changes)

Sat, March 15, 2008 (USA Network)

5:00PM - "Minimum Security"
6:00PM - "Bete Noir"
7:00PM - "Reveille"
8:00PM - "Heart Break"
9:00PM - "Mind Games"
10:00PM - "Grace Period"

"Chaos" finally arrives in the US [5:40 AM ET]

"Chaos," a movie that Jessica worked on in early 2004 and had already been released in other countries 2 years ago, finally arrives in the USA. The movie comes out in 4 days (February 19th) on DVD. Jessica's part in this movie is VERY small so I wouldn't go out of your way to see it. The movie stars Jason Statham, Wesley Snipes and Ryan Phillippe.

Buy Chaos at Amazon.com

Heartland updates [5:40 AM ET]

As was mentioned in the previous news entry, another episode of Heartland (Episode 11: "Thicker than Water") that Jessica was in aired this past Sunday. The official CBC Heartland website has photos that include Jessica from the episode. Episode #12 airs this Sunday, February 17th at 7:00PM ET (which Jessica does not appear in) and Episode 13, the season finale, (that Jessica does appear in) airs one week later, on Sunday, February 24 at 7pm.

jPod and Heartland updates [11:40 AM ET]

Jessica appeared in episode #4 of jPod (titled "Feed the Need") that aired this past Tuesday, Jan 29th. Those of you in Canada who missed it can watch the episodes on the jPod Website. (Same goes for episodes of Heartland). I don't believe the CBC site allows anyone outside of Canada to stream the episodes unfortunately. For those with broadband connections that use Bit Torrent, the episodes of both jPod and Heartland can be downloaded at Mininova.org.

Also be sure to keep watching Heartland which starts airing new episodes tomorrow Feb 3rd on CBC @ 7:00PM ET (check local listings for time and channel in your area of Canada). Episode #10 airs tomorrow and Jessica should be appearing in episodes #11 and #13 (which I think is the last episode of the season) in the coming weeks ahead. I would recommend watching all the remaining episodes in the event that Jessica appears in one that I am not aware of (as has happened before).

January 25, 2008

Heartland update [5:30 AM ET]

Jessica was supposed to have appeared in Heartland episode #9 "Ghosts from the Past" this past Sunday, however that wasn't the case. Not sure what happened there. In any Jessica should be appearing in episodes 11 and 13 in the coming weeks. Episode #10 airs Sunday, Feb 3rd.


January 14, 2008

Heartland & jPod [6:30 AM ET]

Happy New Year everyone! Just a reminder that Jessica's episodes of Heartland are airing currently on the CBC in Canada.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESSICA!!

Jessica in CBC's Heartland [5:30 AM ET]

For those in Canada, Jessica has already appeared in one episode of the CBC TV series Heartland (Episode #3: "Breaking Free".) I believe episode #6 was the last episode to air. Jessica will appear in the following episodes...

Episode  8: "Out of the Darkness"
Episode  9: "Ghosts from the Past"
Episode 11: "Thicker than Water"
Episode 13: "Coming Together"

Heartland airs Sundays at 7:00PM ET on CBC (I don't believe it is airing this Sunday however because of the Christmas holiday). If your in Canada check your local listings in your area.

Also check out the CBC's Official Heartland page for more information on the series.

Vipers [5:30 AM ET]

Jessica just recently finished work on a movie called "Vipers" starring Tara Reid. The IMDB entry for Vipers has a synopsis that reads...

"A set of vipers has been taken by the scientists, and they've mutated them to make a cure for cancer, Then their experiment goes awry, and all these vipers escape into the woods, and they're not only biting people, they're actually killing people, in a little town."

Alrighty then....I know what your thinking... This sounds really really bad! Well, you are probably right. IMDB has a release date of September 2008. I will try and give you fair warning when I know the exact date. (Now that I think of it, maybe Jessica would rather I didn't mention this one.) Oh well, too late! Ummm... Happy Birthday Jessica!! :-)

Captain Power 20th Anniversary [3:05 PM ET]

On this day 20 years ago in 1987, the TV series Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future made its debut on syndicated TV. As many fans already know, Jessica played Jennifer "Pilot" Chase on the show. To celebrate the anniversary, some fans put together a special website. The anniversary site incudes comments from the cast and crew as well as all sorts of information and memoribilia about the series. Note: Jessica answered a bunch of questions for use on the site and they will be posted on that website by this coming weekend, so be sure to check the site then.

Jessica in "Heartland" [2:30 PM ET]

Hot off the heels of her 4 episode appearance on JPod (see entry below) Jessica has scored another role. This time for a recurring role on a CBC series called Heartland (not to be confused with the series "Heartland" currently airing in the U.S. on TNT starring Treat Williams.)

The series Heartland that Jessica appears in as described on the CBC's marketing website says that Heartland is "A multi-generational family drama series set in the fictional town of Hudson located in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains of Alberta. Heartland is a place like no other; a horse ranch with a special mission of healing abused or neglected horses and finding them new homes."

Jessica plays the role of "Lisa Stillman" a wealthy horse owner. For a more complete description of the series see the links below.

Sadly, Heartland (as well as jPod) are productions for the CBC in Canada, which means they aren't likely to be seen in the U.S.

Jessica Joins "jPod" [2:00 AM ET]

Jessica scored a 4 episode role in a new comedy TV series for the CBC in January 2008 called JPod.

JPod the series is based on the novel of the same name by Douglas Coupland. The story concerns a group of video game programmers whose last names all begin with "J". They live and work in a development "pod", which they refer to as the "jPod", within a company that Coupland has described as "resembles, but legally no way is Electronic Arts", located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (where the TV series is also shooting). Since this series is for the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corp.) I am not sure if or when it will air in the USA.

Transit Lounge Photos [4:15 AM ET]

Back in late 2005 Jessica had the lead role in a short film called "Transit Lounge." The film takes place around the events of September 11, 2001 in NYC. In fact they used the World Trade Center set used in another production of a mini-series called "The Path to 9/11" which aired in September 2006 (the director of "Transit Lounge" was a camera operator on that mini-series). The film was also shot on the set of 'This is Wonderland', a CBC-TV comedy series. I don't have any information on when this film will be released or where it can be seen, however Jessica's new demo reel (which will be posted soon) contains a scene from the film. Also, there is a website that contains stills of Jessica from the film.

Jessica recently completed work on a new "pilot" called "Canooks". The show is about "a small town Canadian talent agent (played by Shelli Clark) who is determined to bust out big in THE HOLLYWOOD BIZ, opens an LA branch in her tiny overstuffed Studio City home, and works like a dog in heat to get her Canadian clients a shot at the brass ring. She’ll do whatever it takes, and expects her clients to do the same." Jessica plays the part of "Kat Baines" in the pilot.
