Re: Wild Speculation....

Was there anything in the description for Susan that mentioned her being sassy, bubbly, perky, or otherwise Katee-like?
It seems really unlikely that anyone would cast Katee opposite Jamie again for a really long time, if ever. As much as I thought they had great chemistry and was a total Kara/Lee shipper, it would be the sort of casting decision that I think would cause too much negative commentary, a sort of 'cheating' as it were. Plus, as I recall, no matter what I think of their chemistry, Katee has said in interviews that she's too close to Jamie's family to be really comfortable playing his romantic opposite, so I'd think she would avoid letting herself get cast into a role like that again.
As much as I like her, it would probably be a mistake to cast Katee in 17th Precinct at all, even if there weren't already a ton of BSG folks. Because the Kara/Lee thing was so strong, I think it would interfere with the viewer's perception of their characters if they weren't playing romantic roles. Playing husband-wife would almost be better. I'm thinking of Stargate here, which I only started watching for Ben Browder and Claudia Black. The writers tried so hard to keep their characters from hardly even talking to each other, because of the history, but even still, all I could see was the sparks and comfortable chemistry between them in what little shared screentime they were allowed. Not that they weren't acting well and didn't have chemistry with other actors, but their bond was in my mind at least, overwhelming all of that.
