I've written before about the greatness of Babylon 5 just being beyond me -- out of my reach, as it were.  The program just never hooked me the way it did others, but I can appreciate a job well done, especially when that job well done involves another foray into quality Science Fiction.  As such, kudos are owed to all involved.  Perhaps no one gets more kudos for the show truly igniting a fan frenzy than does veteran actor Bruce Boxleitner.  SciFi fans were already familiar with his face from the legendary flick, Tron (1982), so his inclusion into the space opera at the start of the second season probably only helped throw another log on the already roaring fire of excitement.  Boxleitner was born on this day in 1950.  [Source: IMDB.com]

The venerable Wilfrid Hyde-White joined Buck Rogers in the 25th Century for its second season, playing no less than the venerable 'Dr. Goodfellow,' a kind of joint Sciences officer and historian to the crew of the Searcher.  Though he's no longer with us, Hyde-White was born on this day in 1903.  [Source: IMDB.com]

The late Peter Allan Fields was a screenwriter and producer for the world of televised Star Trek and beyond, also contributing scripts to such genre properties as The Six Million Dollar Man, Man From Atlantis, A Man Called Sloane, Darkroom, Knight Rider, Legend, and Xena: Warrior Princess.  IMDB.com reports that he penned three episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation as well as ten for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.  In 1993, he shared a Hugo Award win for TNG's "The Inner Light" in the category of 'Best Dramatic Presentation' for his part in crafting one of Trekdom's most memorable episodes.  Though he's no longer with us, Fields was born on this day in 1935.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Back in my high school days, I knew a few fellows who insisted that George Carlin was the funniest man alive.  I never quite agreed with them; sure, I thought he was good, but the funniest man alive?  Nah.  He was very insightful, definitely a prescient man who knew a thing or two about life.  I loved his turn in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.  Though he's no longer with us, Carlin was born on this day in 1937.  [Source: IMDB.com]

"Sure, mom.  Sure, dad.  I'll join Starfleet.  I'll wear the red, just like you did.  I'll brave the Final Frontier."  Sigh.  So much red ... so little time.  Jon Cavett enjoyed a trip aboard the Starship Enterprise, and what did he get to show for it?  Killed off in his only screen credit of record aboard the seminal "The Devil In The Dark."  Poor guy.  We hardly knew you.  Though he's no longer with us, Cavett was born on this day in 1940.  [Source: Memory Alpha]

In the role of 'May,' Sara Kestelman enjoyed some screen time aboard John Boorman's Zardoz (1974), one of cinema's more bizarre SciFi entries.  She's also provided voiceovers for Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic II - The Sith Lords video game.  Kestelman was born on this day in 1944.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Gabriel Byrne made a nice appearance as the scientist who might have the answers to turn back the War Of The Worlds.  Byrne was born on this day in 1950.  [Source: IMDB.com]

A lesser man might be quick to dismiss the lovely Jennifer Hetrick as an intellectual's "eye candy."  (Not that there's anything wrong with that!)  Certainly, her introduction into the pantheon of characters that made up Star Trek: The Next Generation kinda/sorta pushed her in that direction.  Rather, I like to think of her as the woman who taught Picard that vacations can be something to look forward to!  Hetrick was born on this day in 1958.  [Source: IMDB.com]

The inimitable Ving Rhames dipped his toes into the greater Marvel Movie Universe with a role aboard the blockbuster hit Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017).  Rhames was born on this day in 1959.  [Source: IMDB.com]

That I know of, Emilio Estevez only took a single stab at the realm of Science Fiction ... so let's thank God for small miracles!  It was called Freejack (1992), and it also starred Rene Russo, Anthony Hopkins, and (ahem) Mick Jagger.  Meh.  It was very forgettable. Estevez was born on this day in 1962.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Sorry, folks, but I don't "game" ... but I have been told by fans of the Star Wars video game franchise that the various Knights Of The Old Republic are pretty exciting properties.  In them, the lovely Deborah Kara Unger voices the advanced form of Artificial Intelligence who sets some of the events in motion.  Unger was born on this day in 1966.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Funny lady Catherine Tate imbued the precocious Donna Noble -- sometime faithful companion to Doctor Who -- with a kind of manic, screwball intensity, matching David Tennant's comic timing note for note.  Tate was born on this day in 1968.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Fox TV's Harsh Realm gave Chris Carter briefly another show to tinker with after creating the phenomenally popular The X-Files for audiences.  Sadly, no one tuned in, and that's a shame as Harsh Realm had probably more potential as an ongoing SciFi property than even Carter could manage.  In it, Samantha Mathis played Sophie Green, the young 'widow' who simply wanted her husband back; the truth of what happened to him had been kept from her.  Mathis was born on this day in 1970.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Nae Tazawa entered the realm of TV Fantasy with a recurring role aboard David Lynch's welcome return to Twin Peaks in 2017.  Tazawa was born on this day in 1970.  [Source: IMDB.com]

The lovely Jamie Luner never disappoints, though I don't think we see her in enough genre projects.  (Let's work on that, Ms. Luner!)  In the meantime, we do have work to appreciate in such entities as The Outer Limits, Threshold (2003), Nuclear Hurricane (2007), and the long-running Supernatural.  Luner was born on this day in 1971.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Picture
Morgan Weisser enjoyed leading man status aboard Fox TV's short-lived Space: Above And Beyond, one of the better SciFi series to come out of the network.  Weisser was born on this day in 1971.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Mackenzie Astin enjoyed a guest spot aboard an episode of Fox TV's increasingly popular The Orville.  The busy actor has also enjoyed a bit of screen time aboard The Outer Limits, Lost, Touch, Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., and The Magicians.  Astin was born on this day in 1973.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Picture
I've only seen a few episodes of the syndicated SciFi series Mutant X.  I liked the premise, but the show had a kinda/sorta funky production vibe to it that I didn't take well to, so I tuned it out.  I really should check it out at some length eventually, and the talented Forbes March enjoyed a few seasons as a regular aboard the program.  March was born on this day in 1973.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Picture
Folks tell me that I struggle with defining certain comic book movies as Science Fiction.  I only have a few rules of thumb, but one is whether or not the story takes place in our possible world.  As Watchmen clearly takes place in an alternate reality, I give it a free pass.  Besides, Malin Akerman is so delicious in it that I'll bend the rules any time I can to squeeze her into a SciFi property! Akerman was born on this day in 1978.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Picture
I thoroughly enjoyed almost all of the TV's animated Star Wars: The Clone Wars during its run, and the lovely Anna Graves voiced a handful of characters aboard the program, including the fan-favorite secondary player 'Satine Kryze,' a kinda/sorta love interest for Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi.  Graves was born on this day in 1978.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Amy Sloan had an important recurring guest role in the first season of Syfy's pretty stellar 12 Monkeys adaptation (pictured above).

The delicious Marisa Lauren explored the funny side of Superhero movies with a role in Superhero Movie (2008). Furthermore, she enjoyed a lead role aboard TV's live action Fantasy-themed Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight series.  Lauren was born on this day in 1980.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Young Domhnall Gleeson played the terrifically tortured 'Clan Technie' from 2012's superb Dredd adaptation (pictured above with his captor Lena Headey).  He's also had a role in 2015's Ex Machina and had an appearance in the much-ballyhooed Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens. Domhnall was born on this day in 1983.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Deliciously easy-on-the-eyes Emily VanCamp had a role in 2014's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and she returned for Captain America: Civil War.  VanCamp was born on this day in 1986.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Believe it or not, the Walt Disney Company has long flirted with SciFi and SciFi-lite properties, of which Luke Benward enjoyed a starring role aboard their Minutemen (2008) film.  Benward was born on this day in 1995.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Picture
The Giver remains one of the tragically under-seen movies of the entire 2014 movie season.  It's an adaptation of a popular yet somewhat controversial Young Adult novel, and I personally think it just got swept away as 'just another YA flick' when it hit the multiplexes.  That's a shame because I found it quite good.  In it, young Odeya Rush (pictured above right) played Fiona, a probable love interest for the film's star Jonas (played by Brenton Thwaites).  Rush was born on this day in 1997.  [Source: IMDB.com]

Young William Hughes took the opportunity to appear not only aboard Doctor Who but also paid a brief visit to its spin-off, Torchwood, in his brief career in the entertainment industry.  In fact, I've read that he's the very youngest actor of record to appear in the guise of 'The Master' for the Science Fiction franchise.  Though he's no longer with us, Hughes was born on this day in 1998.  [Source: Doctor Who Online]

[NOTE: Though I've been unable to locate any of the particulars regarding Hughes' short life, I have seen it reported that he was found unresponsive after a suicide attempt.  So if you or someone you know is contemplating suicide, please share the number for the National Suicide Prevention Hotline: 1-800-273-8255.  It's never too late to save a life.]

Picture
I have a vague, vague recollection of this thing being released on home video.  Maybe I saw it, but I sure don't remember Earth Girls Are Easy.  It premiered theatrically on this day back in 1988 -- with Geena Davis in all of her 'nippled' glory -- and here's the plot summary from IMDB.com:

"A spaceship with three furry aliens lands in a California girl's swimming pool, so she makes friends with them."

Yeah.  That sounds like something I wouldn't remember.

"The newly-regenerated Doctor takes on the Master on the turn of the millennium, 31 December 1999."

For the record:
At the 1997 Saturn Awards, the Academy Of Science Fiction, Fantasy, And Horror Films christened Paul McGann with a nomination for 'Best Genre TV Actor' (alas, he didn't win) ... but the telefilm did take home the trophy in the category of 'Best Single Genre Television Presentation.'
