Voyager Delights has made available a 7-minute 4.2 MB Real Media interview with Jeri Ryan from her appearance last Thursday night on the "Late Show with David Letterman". Not surprisingly, the topic of conversation when it came to her Trek experience focused on her form-fitting costume.
When Letterman asked if she wore a special costume on VOY, she replied laughing, "Sort of. It might as well have been body paint, it was rather snug. The entertaining part was that the writers kept trying to make up reasons for why the costume was so tight. Their reasoning was that it was skin-regenerative fabric. But then by season two [VOY's fifth], my costume's a different color. So I'm like 'why am I now changing clothes?' And they're like 'oh well, it's a different type.'"
However, Ryan suggested that the catsuit was a breeze compared to her original costume as a Borg drone "The original costume when I was a Borg - I had a bigger rubber suit and a big rubber bald cap that went down my neck. It was a pretty look, it was really nice (joking). But that costume was really tight around the neck and if I did anything other than look straight ahead it would press on my carotid artery. Which is a bad thing, so I would sort of black out. I would get faint, but I never actually fainted. But they did call oxygen to the set for me. But it was funny, because I was trying to be a martyr, I didn't want to make waves. And then finally the producer came up to me and said 'You're not really doing us any favours if we have to call oxygen to the set.' Then they realized it was a problem and they cut the neck and it was okay."
How would you rate the latest ENT episode, FUSION, on a scale from 1 (bad) to 10 (excellent) in comparison to the best and the worst episodes of the previous Star Trek television series?
