Sarah Michelle Gellar - "Ringer"

The actress stars in the CW's upcoming suspense thriller Ringer. Of the buzz surrounding the show, Gellar says: "I definitely feel pressure. It's not outside pressure; it's pressure because the fans have been so loyal, you want to … make them happy. There's definitely something to be said for being the quiet show that gets to build on its own merit, as opposed to an expectation that already exists."

Maggie Q - "Nikita"

The star of CW's Nikita is a pro at Comic-Con. Her advice to her fellow THR roundtable panelists who've never been? "This year, you'll say, 'It's going to be this'; 'It's going to be that.' Next year when you come back, it's going to be great. People who come are already going to be fans of the show. So you're going to be answering specific questions about the show, which is much more fun than trying to be like, 'It's not going to suck, I promise.'"

Anna Torv - "Fringe"

Torv, who co-stars on Fox's Fringe, recalls her first Comic-Con. "I went and had a look around the first year that I went down there. The show wasn't on the air yet and everybody was at our panel to hear J.J. [Abrams] speak, so I was quite fine to go and have a look. And then, you know, it changes bit by bit. It's one of the few opportunities that you actually get to sit and talk to people who watch your show and have an interaction with them."

Yvonne Strahovski - "Chuck"

Strahovski, who co-stars on NBC's Chuck, says she can relate to the physicality of her character. "I've always been a bit of a tomboy, so I think all of the action and stunts have always been a part of me. I love doing that stuff, and now my character has sort of evolved from being very comfortable in the spy world but not very comfortable with being a normal person with family and a boyfriend and stuff. She's evolved into a more natural human being and more easygoing in social situations. It's nice to be bringing that into it … to be more normal on the show but still being the spy."

Britt Robertson

Robertson, who stars in the CW's new supernatural series The Secret Circle, says she appreciates the buzz that comes with the show. "We're working with Kevin Williamson, who did The Vampire Diaries. It has a sort of cult following, and I think because of that, and since we are sort of its sister show, people are excited for The Secret Circle. I guess we're just hoping that we don't let people down."

Jennifer Morrison

The former House co-star will play the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming in ABC's fairy tale drama Once Upon a Time. "As an actress, it's nice to look for something different. It was wonderful playing Cameron on House for all of those years -- amazing writing and an incredible cast. I have no complaints, but it was also exciting to be let free and to play new characters and try something new. And part of the appeal of Once Upon a Time for me was that it was totally character-driven. It wasn't procedural and, you know, I've been saying medical terms for a long time."

So, which one(s) are your favorite, GAF? And which shows you're going to watch this Fall?
Watch "Nikita" please. It's awesome show!
I'm a big fan of SMG, Maggie Q, and Anna Torv. My only exposure to Yvonne is "Mass Effect 2" and I don't know the other 2.

Why did I instantly think of them laughing at the 'geeks' at Comic-Con in this shot?



As for which one? I don't know...none of these shows really interest me. And none of them are from the fluff shows that I do watch...like Joanne Kelly or Gabrielle Anwar
 
Yvonne forever. After Miranda Lawson, I've been idolizing her and fapping to her daily.
 
Missing Kristen Bell as geek goddess :( What is she up to?
4ever bitter about Veronica Mars

Morrison has a new show? I had no idea.

Blonde, blonde, blonde, blonde again, and oh a brunette...

God they all look the same... expect Yvonne
They all look like clones save for the one you mentioned (and Maggie).

Yvonne is the best looking one.

Gellar looks good in those pics, which is surprising given her age.


Edit: never mind, I thought she was like 40.

On a somewhat related noted, its great to see a thread about hot WOMEN not little girls.
 
I would seriously like to be a fly on the wall for the after-comic con winding down they have.

No, not for that reason.

I'd seriously like to hear what they say to one another after being nervously pawed at and hoverhanded by sweaty awkward nerds for 48 hours straight. Probably make for hilariously awkward recaps and conversations.

Yeah but she's in Mass Effect now, so the nerd cred is still pretty high.

But ME has taken a nosedive too. She needs to do some better work to fully restore her hotness factor for me.

You're not the only one :P.
The laughinggirls.jpg meme image almost immediately flashed in my mind when I saw that pic.

I know you hate ME2 Solo, but the hate it's getting on GAF is not a true indication for the rest of the world, the game got a gazillion awards.

I know. I'm only speaking for myself. Yvonne was the bees knees for me in the first two seasons of Chuck. But then she did ME2 and 2 more seasons of Chuck, and now I associate her with 3 things I find crappy.

She needs a good role post-Chuck.
 
Jennifer Morrison looks way older with blonde hair, and I think that the nerd star trek fanbase is more interested in Zoe Saldana.

My nerd crushes are Eliza Dushku and Alyson Hannigan <3

She isn't on a genre show.

Unless you count Mad Men as fantasy.

Well for a start she isn't at Comic-Con which is what I was getting at, but what do you mean genre show? And what does that have to do with this list
 
love that list, preaty much everything I am looking forward too next season is on it ^^

oh and the picture reminded me of that vanity fair "debate", well one is half asian

and is that an ODST helmet Maggie Q has? Awesome

Genre show = sci-fi or fantasy

And this is a Comic Con shoot, so obviously it features genre actors.
