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.
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).

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 11 stills of Jessica from the film.

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.
That's all the info I have on the pilot at this time. More information will be posted when I receive it.
