Since I found out I can look up actors on imdb I find whenever I see someone I think I remember, I go right to IMDB and look them up.
Its becoming a compulsion.

I was watching Heroes and I see this hot blonde HRG is with in the restaurant in Hiros past and I think she's familiar. So I look her up and she was on Angel.
Same thing with Charlie in the same epi. She was on Ugly Betty.

A few nights ago on Dexter I saw this hawt blonde. I knew I had seen her before. She was on Stargate: Atlantis.

Yeah from time to time, not obsessively though, but for pretty much the same reasons as you. Sometimes things surprise me - I was amazed to find out how many familiar parts Billy West (Fry from Futurama) had played, including both Ren and Stimpy, the red M&M, Zim from Invader Zim and more.

Oh yeah, I spend tonnes of time on there. I like reading the trivia after watching a movie too, you can learn some interesting facts about the film.

Yeah I always do the same thing. When ever I'm finished watching a movie I check out the obscure actors on IMDB. And the discussion boards.

I play a "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon"/"Wikipedia Game" thing any time I want to look something up. Instead of typing their name into the search box, I try and get to their IMDB page by clicking on one of the movies/actors featured on the home page, and then clicking through movie and actor links until I get to them.

Christina Cox who played Major Teldy. She was the one who they had planned on making the gay character. There is a deleted scene of her hitting on Doc Keller on the DVD. When they announced they were ending the series they cut the storyline. She was only in 1 or 2 epi's. I saw her on Dexter and couldn't place her so I checked on IMDB. She played the police officer who killed her family, and Dexter cut her up.
She is way hot:

"I love that show" - Gir

Billy West only voiced the unaired pilot for Zim, the real voice of Zim is Richard Steven Horvitz. Also John K. was the voice of Ren until he left over "creative differences."

West does show up everywhere though: he was the professor for the giant ants sidequest in Fallout 3.

Back on topic: yes, IMDB all the time, especially for looking up attractive females :)

Oh cool, I wasn't aware that he didn't play Zim in the series. I knew he only played Ren after John K left, the back story there is quite interesting. I definitely did not know he was in Fallout 3, I'm going to have to replay that game just to hear him :awe: I do remember that Professor character, that scene when you first come across him made me laugh out loud.
