lol, good link. Redshirts always get such a raw deal. I bet Munn is talented enough to die a horrible Redshirt death.|

Thanks man for the corrections, I was trying to get that last one out while on the phone and have to admit that my grasp on 'scoff' isn't that solid.

Side track: I just saw a commercial for Munns new show... and it actually looks better than I thought it would. Don't get me wrong, I'm as sick of her as the next person... but I think I'd actually watch that show. At the very least... just to give it a chance before I completely reject it out-right.

Marcian, did you forget? I made you see my point with a very succinct verbal beatdown. Playboy is for nudity, at least topless, no exceptions. There are plenty of other venues for showing off one's eroticism if you don't want to remove your clothes. Munn just wanted to generate cheap publicity by saying "Hey, I'm gonna be in Playboy!" and then didn't have the guts to actually do a real Playboy photo shoot.|

More relevantly, did I miss a meeting? Since when did anyone consider Olivia Munn the least bit funny or talented? Heck, the jury was still categorically out on whether or not she was all that hot last time I saw her being discussed.

Consider the mental marketshare that she's got to command for Playboy to decide to go ahead and feature a cover model that ordered them around, and refused to do what Playboy Wanted.
Sorry to burst whatever bubble you thought you had, but pulling off what Olivia pulled off with Playboy? That girls got a brass pair.

Actually, that's probably more due to the fact that Playboy's clout and drawing power has fallen considerably since it's heyday, what with more popular and attention-getting photo shoot venues like Maxim, GQ and even the plain ol' internet. They haven't got the power to order anyone around, I'd wager, who isn't a complete unknown.|

As far as her not "Playboying up" in her shoot, had it been someone who didn't have a general air of being an attention-seeking hanger-on, I wouldn't have bat an eye and not even thought about it. But every time I see Munn, it seems like she's just playing for the spotlight with her ego in the driver's seat. It's just seems like a bugsome pattern.
I will also say that if, when my brother gave me my first (and only) stack of Playboys when I was a teenager, I'd seen that the covergirl of the world's (then) leading nudie mag wasn't nudie, I'd've been upset. Given that that is what the mag is known for (and, oh yes, the articles), I see little problem with folks being annoyed...to a reasonable extent.

I'd have to go with this as the most logical explanation. Playboy is on it's way out and they're desperate. In an age where free porn is readily available for anyone with the ability to type, costly nude-y magazines will suffer tremendously.

Isn't Munn the idiot who when interviewing a game developer she started asking him stupid questions about his junk instead of the game, to the point where it was pissing the guy off?
Olivia Munn is a lady what I would do naked touch on. That is all.

I'm not sure if that clarification was needed, but thanks none-the-less.
Actually, recently Playboy have been using non-nude celebrities to sell magazines. In fact, so much so, that they aped a picture of Jessica Alba, put her on the cover, and she sued, saying it implied she was getting nude, when in fact, it was just an article on her.

The moves she's made are good.
AOTS is a niche show. I personally find XPLAY to be a better and more entertaining show.
The Daily show+a new sitcom on a NETWORK > a niche G4tv show.
EDIT: That said all that has nothing to do with whether or not she has talent.
