Way back in February, Shed announced that they had sold the rights to Bad Girls to Fox Television, who plans to make an American version to air on FX. Now, I know many of my international flisters are unhappy to hear this, figuring that we Americans could never capture the beauty that is early BG love. To solve this potential international crisis, I offered to cast the show based on Series One. My cast behind the cut:



Helen Stewart- I am torn between two people for this pivotal role:


Renee O'Connor-she 's selling art to finance a movie, so she really needs a job.

My other choice is

Tracie Thoms- cause she's just purty.

Nikki Wade

Andrea Parker...come to mama, YEAH! She can play icy cool, and tenderly sweet, and she has legs for days.

Shell Dockley

Denise Richards. She can do crazy bitch like no one else. And she was married to Charlie Sheen, so yeah,

Sylvia "Bodybag" Hollomby

Nuff said.

Daniella "Denny" Blood

Michelle Rodriguez. We need to keep this hottie actively employed so she'll quit getting arrested.

Yvonne Atkins

Angela "Hoat and Hard" Bassett-Mrs. CB's choice and I agree completely. Her hubby is some big rap producer/gang banger...oh the potential.

Jim Fenner

Teh Hoff- needs no explanation.

For other characters I was thinking along the lines of:
Dominic: Haley Joel Osment- we need to get this little hottie (/perv) refocused on his career and away from teh drugs and booze.

Zandra: Lindsay Lohan-she's already doing the real life research

Rachel Hicks: Eith one, or both of the Olsen Twins

Lorna: Shannen Doherty?-yeah, I got nothing

Sean: The same guy that played Perdicus in X:WP, specially if we go with ROC as HS

Did I miss anyone?


So my question is, who would you cast? And if you aren't into Bad Girls, pick an old TV show being revamped for current times, and cast it.

I think Hilary Skank would make a good Nikki Wade....all tho....I would constantly be thinking about how she touches and kisses someone else like that.

But, if you are going to cast Renee as Helen then I really think Lucy Lawless should be NIkki. They already have experience in the makeout department and they have great chemistry. They could pull it off no problem.

I can't really see David being as big a prick as Fenner needs to be so my vote goes for Steven Baldwin. He's ugly and I already can't stand him.

As far as Yvonne goes....I see that bitch from the Sopranos playing that part. I can't think of her name right now but she played the wife to the main fat guy (yeah I didn't watch the show). She already has mob boss experience.

I wouldn't watch it if Shannon Doyherty was cast. I have always hated her.

But I agree with the rest of your picks.

You should be a casting director girly.

Heh. That would be Edie Falco. I didn't even think of her as Yvonne, yet her co-star Lorraine Bracco was one of my choices for a very HOT Helen! ;)

Bracco would be nice, but I was trying to stay in the age range of the chararcters, otherwise this would be the perfect Helen:


Teryl "Helen Junior" Rothery- even looks a bit like Lahboob and has a fantastic rack!

How'd I know you'd wind up there? Lol... but oddly a perfect fit. I'd put ROC in as Shaz, but I know you were sticking to S1.

Can we make Amanda Nikki then? Black hair dye anyone?

What the bloody hell did you do to me woman?? :sighs: and wanders back to the shiny new season 1 to 3 BG DVD collection with all the tasty RPF action ;)

Is Lorraine the black haired one? Because that's who I was thinking of not Eddi. Edie is too old and ugly as far as I'm concerned. I want Yvonne to be at least pleasent looking seeing as she was my favorite on the show.
