Yes, I see that now. Often the Lifetime movies are listed in the LMN library as the two are connected. But Lifetime it is.
So, what's her next project??? Anyone hear anything?

I just saw the new Liftetime movie, Panic Button. It was OK. She was not bad in it, but the story was weak and not her usual role. Sure, it had some social value, pointing out the problems women have with stalkers, even though, in this case, it's just a delusional and ultimately dangerous neighbor. Usually, HMC does more social commentary, but it's possible she just wanted a softball, an easy role, to get back into acting after taking some time off, post Charmed.
I hate to say it, but although she looked great, she still has a few pregnancy pounds to lose or she may not get offered the roles she really wants. She may never get to the weight she had say at the beginning of Charmed, but that was two babies and a decade ago.
I also, and wonder if she did, find it ironic that she's weilding a sword, of all things, in her first post Charmed role, that had nothing magical or supernatural in it. You got to know it must have brought back an Excaliber flashback or two.
I also found it odd that the detective, after being stabbed, is never seen again. Not typical, but a loose end which left a very dark side to the story unresolved.

I recorded the movie on dvr and i just got a chance to watch it last night. It was really good, i thought. The story was pretty good. A little bit predictable, but still pretty good. This is the only other role i've seen holly in besides charmed, and i didn't think i would like seeing her play someone other than Piper, but i really did like her character. She was a little bit more reserved and calm than Piper, but i noticed a few "piperisms" in her. Like the way she tilts her head to the side a lot, and shakes her head to toss her hair over her shoulder. Just little things like that. Maybe those are just "hollyisms" tho. haha. Spiritkas, i didn't even think about the sword thing until you mentioned it. It is kinda funny tho, and like you said, must have brought back some charmed memories. But yeah, i really did enjoy Holly's performance in the movie, and i can't wait to see what other things she'll do inthe future.

I don't think this is the place for those sort of questions. This section if for HMC's future career endeavors. I believe there is another topic dedicated to asking 'Piper' those sorts of questions. Now, back on topic. I only got to see the end of the movie Panic Button. The social point was a very valid one and one of importance. Women and men can be stalked. What a scary situation. It's movies like this that will help bring about more awareness. Does anyone know when this will be on again? And does anyone know if there is anything else on the horizon for HMC?

I missed it again. Stupid work. HF: You really need to get a DVR ;D It will probably be on in about 2-4 months, as Lifetime tends to recycle its new movies, especially if it had done well. I'm sure you're familiar with the Lifetime site which has its schedule for the month on it. The only problem with it, is that its not a month from "today," it's the month we're in, so you have to wait until the 1st to see the next month's schedule. Also, the IMDB.com site (another I'm sure you've visited) often puts up front, when you go to an actor's web page on the site, the shows/movies they are in on TV that week. They are pretty good at keeping that up to date, so it's another place to watch for upcoming HMC movies and such, like the ones she was in prior to Charmed. Chrmd4life: I agree there was some social value to the movie, from a stalking perspective, but this was also a serial killer of sorts and it's unknown how many times he'd killed some family. They only showed one instance prior to his meeting the family HMC was in. He may have published other books under other names and had killed several times in the past. In some respect, the movie was also about mental instability, as the stalker was supposed to be seeing a therapist (who we never see, so it could have been a lie), but it didn't really dwell on the topic beyond his using it as an excuse to run into HMC's character. My point was that it was not a great movie, which showcased either an issue which needed some or more public awareness or a one that is being ignored. Stalking is a well known problem and there are, at least, some laws on the books to help police and the courts enforce a level of protection for people. Raising awareness for the public does not seem to me to be one of those issues that is in need of publicity as much as others. I think this was just a nice vehicle for HMC to get back into the action, but that's just my opinion. The fact that it had some social statement on stalking to make, probably did get HMC's interest in the project, as that has been mostly the type of stories she's been involved with during her career.

HF: Question for you. Why is it that finding out what HMC's next project will be is so difficult? For example, both AM and RM have projects going on, movies coming out, and we hear all about them. AM has a lifetime movie coming out on the 15th of March (Beware the Ides of March - sorry, couldn't resist) and we're seeing all sorts of advertising for it. Not so much HMC's recent Panic Button. Is HMC that much lower on the interest list than AM? Or is HMC purposely not pursuing anything else yet?
I know AM has her own site, with which she is actively involved and RM has big screen movies coming out, which always garner more attention. It just seems like HMC may be taking too much time off or is being very picky with the scripts she's getting (presuming she is being sent some). If she wants to go a bit bigger, the big screen or the right high profile TV show would be what she needs, but if she's purposely laying low, well we know that's her perogitive. Any thoughts?

alyssa has a new show coming up this march wisegal and i've heard a few things about shannen, and even brian (leo) has had a few shows goin on. and a few things on rose, but i've seen nothing on holly at all. maybe she is resting a good long time. sometimes that happens... you see an actress/ actor you like and then they disappear for a long while.

Holly Marie Combs had made a movie called Panic Button. Not sure when it first aired, but it's showing on Lifetime March 5th, 2008.

AM's show is a movie on Lifetime. She also has a movie, Pathology, that has been delayed in it's release for unknown reasons. RM has been doing movies and may be the next Barbarella. She's also co-hosting the Essentials where they introduce classic movies (I understand she's a real movie buff and a colector of movie memorabilia). HMC did the Lifetime movie Panic Button, which is on tomorrow evening.
AM also did a few episodes on My Name is Earl.
Obviously HMC is not doing as much, probably having taken some long earned rest after the birth of her second son. Also, Panic Button is the type of movie she would do, either based on a true story or a social ill, in this case stalking, mental illness, and perhaps serial killings. I'm sure she has enough money to pick and choose her scripts, which I hope are coming her way. Anyway, I just don't want her to be gone from the small or large screen too long as people start to forget and her talents can go to waste. Though I'm sure her time spent with her family is not considered wasted by any means. Still, you don't want her to be remembered as that actress on Charmed or Picket Fences and then hardly ever seen again.

Just a reminder to try and make sure to keep the comments about Holly as this is her fanclub. Try to keep all other talk about the other actresses/actors in their respective places. Thanks

HF: You're absolutely right. I just wish we actually had something to talk about in the thread. Any news on any new project HMC is considering? Any late spring or early summer projects or TV series in the works? Has she been at any events, fundraisers, charity workshops, etc? Not that these latter ones of as much interest as her acting projects, but it's been pretty quiet out there.

OK, it's been another five weeks and no new news on HMC's career. Has anyone heard anything about her next project?

IMDB.com lists a movie called Misstresses, due out in 2009, in pre-production. It also shows a (USA) which either means it will be on the USA network or will be shown in the US.
It appears to star HMC, as she is listed first, along with Brooke Burns and Rochelle Aytes. Literally there is no other information.

I take that back. It does say TV, so I'm presuming it's a made for TV movie, and that it is a drama. I suspect that it has a social message or about a societal problem (particularly from the name), as HMC, with few exceptions, always appears in such movies.
