So like, Strike Back is such an underrated and unknown show, but it’s one of my favorites. I just got past the middle of season 8, and I am broken. The way they handled Mac’s death was beautifully tragic and absolutely heart-wrenching. I wish every show would send of characters with as beautiful of a homage as this show did for Mac. Who cares if it takes a who episode or two? I will rave about this show and cry about it until the day I die.

Strike Back ep 4x05 

(Did a rewatch in the last couple of months of the Scott & Stonebridge seasons. The series holds up. One day I’ll watch the seasons after Scott & Stonebridge depart when they are put on MAX to stream instead of buy/rent options only)

After much hesitation and serious deliberation, I finally broke down and watched the four-episode story arc of Rebecca Levi, played by Lyne Renée, from Cinemax’s Strike Back series.

Yes, I tend to be a prude and knew there was strong sexual content involved. But, I wanted to see Lyne’s performance. She did not disappoint. Her Rebecca is a woman of regret and a woman of duty.

While her performance in Deep State is better, in my humble opinion, I am in awe of how much Lyne Renée was able to convey in these four episodes. It is no wonder that fans to this day regret the character’s death.

Happy Birthday Stephen "Dougray" Scott born on November 25th 1965.

In my opinion Dougray is one of the most underrated Scottish  actors, with his broad Scottish brogue he oozes Scottishness whenever he speaks in his native tongue.

After attending Auchmuty High School in Fife trained at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama where he was named most promising drama student and took the his stage name from his grandmother's surname, "Dougray

Scott's early work was in Scottish national theatre and television, first appearing in the series Soldier Soldier as well as on the stage in the Tim Fleming directed production of Wallace. Early television credits to follow included The Rover, Taggart: Nest of Vipers, Lovejoy, and Soldier Soldier. Scott followed this up with impactful turns in the films You Don't Have to Say You Love Me, Black Beauty, and Another Nine & a Half Weeks. Shortly thereafter, Scott could be seen opposite Drew Barrymore in the hit film Ever After, opposite Robert Duvall, Tea Leoni, and Vanessa Redgrave in the film Deep Impact, as well as the second installment in the hit Mission: Impossible franchise, Mission: Impossible 2. 

He also starred in a film I mentioned the other day, alongside Dougie Henshall, This Years Love, look out for it, it is very funny and full of Scots, but set in London.

Scott also appeared opposite Kate Winslet in Michael Apted's Enigma as well as the 2002 film Ripley's Game, opposite Ray Winstone. Starring opposite Jennifer Connelly in the 2005 film Dark Water and the 2007 film Hit Man, Scott soon appeared in US television for the first time in the ABC miniseries The Ten Commandments as well the Hallmark TV movie Arabian Nights.

Other film roles have included the hit film Ever After, opposite Drew Barrymore Then with Robert Duvall, Tea Leoni, and Vanessa Redgrave in the film Deep Impact, as well as the second instalment in the hit Mission: Impossible franchise, Mission Impossible 2. Scott also appeared opposite Kate Winslet in Michael Apted’s Enigma as well as the 2002 film Ripley’s Game, opposite Ray Winstone. In 2006 Dougray  appeared in US television for the first time in the ABC miniseries The Ten Commandments as well the Hallmark TV movie Arabian Nights. US television audiences next saw Scott in the NBC series Heist as well as the hit series Desperate Housewives. He followed these impressive turns with the BBC miniseries adaptation of the cult classic novel The Day of the Triffids .

He was also been seen in the critically-acclaimed movie My Week With Marilyn, the hit Netflix series Hemlock Grove, and the Cinemax series Strike Back. On this side of the Atlantic, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was great as well as another film was New Town Killers, set in Edinburgh, and in an episode of Dr Who with Matt Smith. He was also in the TV series, Snatch, based on the film of the same name.

During the last few years  playing  Colonel Jacob Kane in the series Batwoman. The series was cancelled after 3 seasons.  He has also appeared in La Cha Chis a dark comedy which also stars the excellent Rhys Ifans, it was written and filmed in South Wales in four weeks over the coronavirus lockdown.

At present you can find Dougray in the Irvine Welsh series Crime, where he platys troubled detective DI Ray Lennox. I’m really looking forward to the second installment, which will see the excellent English actor John Simm join the cast. 

In the second season Ray is ready to return to the fray at Edinburgh Serious Crimes, keen to prove he is fully recovered from his breakdown, I’ll say no more in case you haven’t watched series one, please go do it! Dougray has one a Scottish Bafta for his portrayal and just this weekend in the 50th International Emmy Awards was also awarded Best Performance by an Actor.   Vigil, set in Scotland won the Best Drama Series

In a post on social media, Welsh congratulated the Hollywood star, who he claims “battled for years” to play the lead role in Crime.

Dougray will also be in the Sky series  A Town Called Malice about a  family of petty thieves from South London who decamp to Spain to profit from an unexpected windfall. I’m also looking forward to the film, Irena's Vow telling the true story of Polish nurse Irene Gut Opdyke, who was  awarded the Righteous Among the Nations medal for showing remarkable courage in her attempt to save Polish Jews during World War II. The film is based on the Broadway play of the same name. It is set to premiere next year.

ON THE RAMPAGE, HAMAS, PALESTINE, ISRAEL, GAZA, PHILLIES HIT 6 HOME RUN’S, SPECIAL OP’S, STRIKE BACK ON CINEMAX & NEVER GOT TO ANY REALTY TV

On The Rampage, Hamas, Palestine, Israel, Gaza, Phillies Hit 6 Home Run’s, Special Op’s, Strike Back on Cinemax & Never Got To Any Realty TV Today is filled with numerous notable events in various spheres. In the political arena, there has been increased tension as Hamas and Israel clashed in Palestine, generating heated debates and discussions. Simultaneously, in the sports world, the Philadelphia Phillies made headlines by hitting six impressive home runs, much to the excitement of their fans. “Strike Back,” always was able to offer viewers an action-packed and adrenaline-fueled experience which is why we need them in Gaza. In reality and seriousness, the fast-paced nature of these events easily engrossed everyone in the excitement, making it easy to lose track of time. However, amidst the commotion today, one thing went un talked about, the lack of any reality TV coverage because I never got to Big Brother, Survivor, The Amazing Race, The Challenge USA, Below Deck, Southern Charm, I hope to yap about them soon!

We Have Arrived, Gente! It's Alec Hair Appreciation Saturday!

Here is Alec in the Skye One/Cinemax series Strike Back: Vendetta where he played a Bosnian Muslim terrorist named Zayef.

He had to grow some EPIC hair for that role! And the thing about viewing hours and hours of interviews, YouTube vids, film festival panels, and bits of footage here and there, is I know that he tends to mess with his beard as a tell, when it's gotten very long, or when he's thinking. I like recognizing that. :-)

This is one of the screencaps where he looks less insane.

Thanks for reading, everyone! Talk to you all tomorrow and take care.
