Velasca on "Enterprise?"

It would seem so! The reviews etc. for the debut of the new Trek show on UPN tomorrow say:

In the pilot, the Suliban -- shape-shifting humanoids with mottled skin that looks like worn basketball rubber -- send one of their number, Sarin ( Melinda Clarke), to rub up against Captain Archer, but when he resists her charms, she announces her true mission....

REALLY?! Who would have thunk it.

I haven't seen her in anything ever except Xena... and other people seem to pop up left and right... or so it seems.

Actually, ol' Mindy (as she also goes by) Clarke has been on a ton of things, especially "Days of Our Lives" - her real-life father plays "Mickey" who must surely be the patriarch now, since I recall he was the hero back on the 70's when my mother would watch the show.

Thank you o' wise one.

This would explain why I haven't seen her as I haven't seen/don't watch anything on her filmography. *L*
