Joe Flanigan guest starring in ABC's WOMEN'S MURDER CLUB

[wraithfodder]

 A fan at http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/JoeFlaniganOnline/ posted some great tidbits on Joe Flanigan from the Burbank Stargate convention held today.

* Flanigan isn't his birth name. His birth name is Joseph Dunegan III. His parents were divorced almost immediately after his birth and his mother remarried. Flanigan is his adoptive father's name. He's the third youngest of his father's eight kids and his mother's three kids.

* He's got a recurring guest star role in the ABC drama WOMEN'S MURDER CLUB, which right now airs Friday's at 9:00 PM (yes, against the encore repeats of last week's SGA episodes. So unfair). No word on w hen they'll air. Of course, depends on if the series lasts or not too.

* Jason Momoa and his girlfriend and baby are moving up to Vancouver.

* His house survived the current fires but his kids school was burned down.

* Wasn't able to do the entire Walter Reed Hospital tour because he was filming "Women's Murder Club". And said he hopes to be in New York (City?) in the winter with family and then will take the train down.

Huge thanks to "K" on the JoeFlaniganOnline list for the info!

So I guess his agent changed him mind because Joe was talking in Austrailia about how he wanted to do guest appearances, but his agent didn't want him to be typecast. Works for me! More Joe on television.

I just started watching WMC this week. Now I know why. ;-)

I LOVE Women's Murder Club! Aww, this is so cool! I think there are 4 or 5 or 6 episodes left for the season, but I cannot wait until they air. That's awesome. The series is definitely going to keep airing because they've won their timeslot on Fridays.

Cool tidbits! The name cracks me up - I like it! :D

Never heard of the show but I imagine there'd be interest in it if Flanigan is on it. Good for him as I believe he's expressed interest in other projects.

Thanks for the heads up, wow he's been busy. Wonder when Shattered begins filming. Can't wait to read more from the con!

Thanks!

Thanks for the post, Elyse. I'm with you, wasn't planning on watching WMC, commercials didn't catch my interest. Hopefully we will know which eps Joe is in, so can watch those. I have been watching both the 9 and 10 showings of Atlantis, so I'll have to record Joe on WMC. Thanks again for the info.

Women's Murder Club is the only series I tried this fall that I stuck with. Having The Flan on there will be an added bonus.

I just mentioned this show to ancientcitadel and we were going to download the first ep but now we will keep going until Joe's ep. It probably won't show in Australia until next year.
