During this one episode of "Birds of Prey", my better half recognized one of the actors. After watching that episode and checking the credits, the hunch was right; they had been in a local theater production together! Cheesy tune to follow: "It's a small world after all".

The actor was in a few scenes with The Huntress (Ashley Scott) and Reese (Shemar Moore), who are in "Jericho" and "Criminal Minds", respectively. From Jericho, that opens up a connection to "Scream" with Skeet Ulrich, and a connection to "The Princess Bride" with Mandy Patinkin from "Criminal Minds". What's funny is that with Carey Elwes in "The Princess Bride", he was in "The Crush" with Alicia Silverstone, whom my better half does not like! Other people I noticed were Joe Flanigan (in "Stargate Atlantis", a show we like) and Lori Loughlin (from "Full House"). With connections through some producers of "Birds of Prey", Kay Foster and Adam Armus, then there's a connection to "Heroes", which just happens to be a most excellent show you may have noticed!

What other connections, within 6 degrees, can be made to "Birds of Prey"? For instance, through "Full House", in which also starred John Stamos, a connection can be made to "ER" which I think could also make a connection to "Elektra".

A "bird of prey" can be loosely translated into German as "jaeger", and Jaegermeister is a really good brand of beer I buy at Central Market. Central Market, since it sells beer and wine, is a competitor of another chain named Red Coleman's. The actor who plays HRG is Jack Coleman, and "Coleman" is the last name of Robin Williams' character from "The Birdcage".

In 6 steps, I went from "birds of prey" to "bird cage". I didn't get very far, it seems.

6 degrees from Birds of Prey? Hmm.....I can make another connection to Jericho. The actress who plays Oracle (I forget her name) played a cop in the Saw movies. In Saw II, one of the main characters was a teenage boy played by Erik Knudsen. Knudsen is currently starring in Jericho alongside Ashley Scott.
