    I've always loved Kate Mulgrew's work! She and I are about the same age, and I remember her in her first big role...as one of the leads in the ABC soap, Ryan's Hope. I've followed her ever since...and really enjoyed her as Capt. Janeway. She was a really good leader and role model...kinda a precursor to Sam Carter.

    I was glad to see her back on TV...but I don't like The Black Donnellys too much. I'm trying, though.
    Dating myself here, but I too remember her as Mary Ryan Fennelli on Ryan's Hope. For a soap actress she was a rarity...one who could already act! I enjoyed her too as Mrs. Columbo in the series (short lived) of the same name.
    Janeway was a role that Kate was meant to play. A leader who had to be tough at times, but never lost her essential humanity. (when i think they almost had genevive bujold for that role I shudder.... god was defintely watching us on that one!) She gave us the many facets of Janeway brilliantly.

      Are there any roles you'd like to see KM play if there were a movie made out of one of your favorite books?

      I'm a fan of detective stories & I've thought that Kate would be a great Sgt/ Lt. Norah Mulcahaney in Lillian O'Donnell's books.

        Yep she sure would. She so wonderfully no-nonsense. I have often thought I'd like to see her play kate in Taming of the Shrew... she would give Petruchhio what for!

            I saw Kate in her latest play "Our Leading Lady" last weekend. She was excellent! If anyone in the NYC area gets a chance to go, I highly recommend it!

                Has anyone heard if she's going to make any more appearances on Law and Order? Didn't she play a federal prosecutor on one of the L&Os either early this season or last season?

                  I've seen Bujold in some of her films. I am SO glad Kate Mulgrew got the captain's chair! I don't think I would've loved Voyager as much with Bujold in the role.
                  My son likes Captain Janeway the best out of all the captains!

                    Cool! They always said boys wouldn't like a female captain, but I don't think that's necessarily true. Your son backs me up!

                    I think the key to strong female characters is for the writers to not get hung up on the fact that the character is a woman. And to get a talented actress like KM, of course.

                    Did anyone hear, did Black Donnellys get canceled or was it only a short run series? I only tuned in for KM, didn't like the show much.

                      yeah, kate mulgrew is a great actress and also a great human beeing.



                      I saw here when she was in london for the play "the exonerated"... (on her birthday..)
                      I will never forget that day.


                      There was a handfull of people from europe who traveled to NYC to see the play.
                      I wanted to go too but... well.. it's always a money thing (hotel, flight,..)

                              Eee, I love KM! She's amazing. I'm so glad that she ended up playing Janeway. Such a great captain!

                              Yeah, she was on SVU (my favorite of the L&O's). She was great in the episode too. I don't know if there are plans to have her back but I definitely hope there are. She was great.
