Yoss: Thanks for coming out to talk to us guys

Jamie_Bell: thanks for having us

Kris Pope: very welcome---thanks for having us

Yoss: well we already have a marriage proposal for one of yall. I'm sure you'll like that

michec: hehehe

Jamie_Bell: well, I do really like kris

Linh Nguyen: hey you guys! you both are sOOOOO adorable! kris will you marry me? I look forward to seeing you both onscreen soon! i'm sure you will rock! dark angel rules

Yoss: does she have a chance? or are you guys in relationships? :P

Kris Pope: that's about the most flattering thing that I ever heard

Kris Pope: that's complicated....

Yoss: that's love at first sight too

Jamie_Bell: Me and my cat get along great...but you know

Kris Pope: hahahhaa

Kris Pope: thanks Linh

Yoss: So you're a cat person as opposed to a dog one Jamie?

Jamie_Bell: Um, actually I just need to move away from my roommates then I'll get a dog too. I love animals

Kris Pope: Carly just bought a cat, so I guess I'll have to become a cat person whether I like it or not!! (but I like it)

Jacquelyn Arnold: When you filmed 'Meow' last year, did you ever expect that it
was going to be a returning role? Was Rafer's character meant to return all along or was his character's return just convenient for where the writers wanted to go?

Kris Pope: I think that it was a decision that was made after the original role

Yoss: After your episode aired, Mr Manager was joking along myself that it would be great if they found a way to bring your back.. and then it happened

Lisa: do you think fan reaction to your role played any part in having you back?

Kris Pope: I would love to think so!!!

Kris Pope: I was in London when I found out that they were interested, and I was on a plane four hours later....

Lisa: how was London?

Kris Pope: Very Very busy, but culturally, it was fantastic!

Yoss: To Kris: Have you read any hostility toward your character on message boards yet? Cuz you know "Max and Logan" are destined to be together according to the M/L fans

Kris Pope: Yeah, but I think that my character was meant to stir things up a little!! As we all know, anything can happen.

Yoss: This one if for both of yall

Gwen: What has been your favorite experience on the set so far?

Jamie_Bell: Um......I have a thing for cars...and driving around in the hummer was fun.....

Kris Pope: Gwen---I'd have to say that the whole time was really rewarding, but I would have to say that the best part was working with all of the cast and crew involved in the show-----TOP NOTCH! Plus---riding a Harley was cool

Yoss: Can you guys describe your characters on the show since we haven't met you yet, Jamie

Jamie_Bell: Zero is an x-6 who is saved by MAX from manticore....later on Zero and four others go back to save max. Zero is part of a group of x-6's that survived

Yoss: did they tell you the difference between an X-5 and and X-6?

Jamie_Bell: x-6 are slightly younger, and theoretically more advanced

Kris Pope: Rafer comes back as a paramedic (finished with the pizza boy days) and has another 'run in' with max

Yoss: So where does Rafer meet Max? at Jam Pony again?

Kris Pope: It was a chance meeting, with impact!

Dennis Leong:I was wondering what sort of music Jamie was most interested in,

Jamie_Bell: Well...Dennis...I am a huge fan of Elevator music on the weekends and during the week I elevate it to a nice Bach

Yoss: And you Kris?

Kris Pope: I listen to alot of hip-hop, reggae, and drum n bass

Jamie_Bell: To tell you the truth....I listen to everything from down-temp techno to as hard as it gets metal. I also preform in a band and compose music myself

Lisa: Kris, you said in your bio that you enjoy snowboarding, have you ever tried the half pipe at Mount Baker?

Kris Pope: not on Baker---but I have up at Whistler (in BC)

Yoss: How is the band coming along? just garage or local clubs?

Jamie_Bell: Garage/Studio...and a few Bars

Lisa: what style music does your band perform?

Jamie_Bell: Ask Dennis...he may know

Yoss: Just like to introduce a fellow Eyes Only staffer jei that has a question

Jamie_Bell: For everyone else....(To their surprise) It's a death metal band

Jei: Hi guys great to have you here, sorry I was late :\

Kris Pope: no worries

Jamie_Bell: No prob

Jei: I'm not sure if Yoss asked all ready, but Superman or Batman, and why?

Jamie_Bell: well....

Kris Pope: Superman---all the way

Jamie_Bell: Batman....I love the night...and he doesn't have any special powers..he does it all with heart

Yoss: come on, Batman doesn't have fancy powers Kris ... right on Jamie

iaries: but batman has lots of cool gadgets

Lisa: Vampike would like to know if you are ever asked for your autograph, or mistaken for the kid on "Billy Elliot". That was a question for Jamie BTW

Jamie_Bell: Well, I think I look significantly different...but over the internet its happened a few times

Lisa: lol

beanz: Where would you like to see your entertainment career go? Are you interested in staying in front of the camera doing Tv, movies and perhaps theater? Or would you like to eventually take on the role of director, producer and such the like as you grow older. for both of you

Jamie_Bell: I hope to always do this..paid or unpaid...but along the way, I wish to have my own recording studio for music and production studio for film and T.V.

Kris Pope: Staying in front of the camera is a must---I love performing and the medium of film/tv is where I would like to continue and stay

Jamie_Bell: I wouldn't mind being able to fund local Theaters for young actors as well

Kris Pope: Carly and I have been thinking of screenplays to write and have been narrowing down some ideas

Jamie_Bell: But yes, I agree with Kris that I have a need to stay in front of the camera

Yoss: until you get offered Jim Carrey dollars, right?

Kris Pope: hahahahaha

Yoss: This was alluded to earlier… but which actors from the Cast did you hang out with and any funny stories to tell?

Jamie_Bell: LOL

Kris Pope: ummmmmmmmmmmmmm

Kris Pope: I've been hanging alot with Jensen, our crew of friends really mesh

Lisa: Jamie how many episodes of DA have you filmed so far?

Jamie_Bell: 1

Kris Pope: 3

Vampike_DAB: To both: Are you Sci-Fi fans? If so, what other series do you watch?

Jamie_Bell: I love the idea of Sci-Fi, but don't get a chance to watch to much T.V.

Kris Pope: I am very eclectic when it comes down to my tv viewing--anything that captivates me

Jamie_Bell: Wouldn't mind being an alien sometime though

Jei: So no Trekkers in the bunch?

Jamie_Bell: Next Generations..I like, the movies I liked

Kris Pope: A friend of mine is one of the leads on Enterprise, so I'll be watching him whenever I have the chance

Jei: The man has good taste ;)

Yoss: Kimmie87: Kris, what was it like kissing Jessica?

Jamie_Bell: oooohhh....I'll be sure to let Micheal know

Yoss: shhh... that's my follow-up

Kris Pope: It was very technical, and really funny (when we were crashing down the hallway to film it, there were many, many full on bails)

Kris Pope: we had fun with it,

Yoss: did you get your bruised while crashing into the wall?

Kris Pope: I was a mess. She destroyed me

Elysia: Kris: Are you a recurring role in DA this season? I have a tendency to read spoilers and only seen you in 2 eps... Plus I love you! :)

Kris Pope: Thanks Lisa! Rafer is recurring, but I don't know when he'll appear---the possibilities are infinite

Yoss: is he coming when she's in heat? nice timing by the way

Jei: Yoss!

Lisa: Kris I hope Jim told you that I'm married (I was relaying a question for Elysia) ;-)

Kris Pope: thanks. No, this time there is an even hormonal playing field!

Vangirl: Where do you think this will take your career and do you expect women's numbers out of this?

Kris Pope: hahaha

Jamie_Bell: heheh

Jamie_Bell: Um.....is that for both or just Kris ?

Kris Pope: Who asked that!!

Yoss: well, she's in the room

* michec points to Vangirl

Jei: Both of you

Kris Pope: is she offering her own???

iaries: lol

Jei: lol!

Jamie_Bell: hmm...girls numbers hey....wow, they were right when they said acting was a good gig. To tell you the truth I don't expect anything...hope for lots...but don't expect anything to fall into my lap...as for girls...well...

Yoss: Did you guys interact with Martin Cummins in your episodes?

Kris Pope: I never met Martin

Jamie_Bell: Yes I did work with Martin

Yoss: how was he like?

Jamie_Bell: He was a great guy to work with...and actually out of anyone I probably spoke with him the most off camera...we got along great

Lucky44:: We all know that sci-fi fans tend to observe/analyze everything in excruciating detail. Is there any added pressure to stay true to the character, as opposed to playing a character on a non sci-fi series?

Jamie_Bell: I don't think I thought about that at all, but now that you mention it...well I hopefully still won’t

Kris Pope: Well, my character is human so he has alot of emotional room to move and develop. Human nature is change, right?

Gwen: If you could have revved up DNA, what special traits would you want it to give you? and for Jamie.. what gifts do you have in your character

Kris Pope: The ability to type faster

Jei: lol

Yoss: Typing 101 in HS was worth it man :P

Jamie_Bell: Like a lot of the other x's...We have super speed, and power

Kris Pope: nice

Jei: When you're not on the set what are some of the things you do to kick back?

Jamie_Bell: Listen to or play music...lots of writing and lots of sports....

Kris Pope: play b-ball with my little bro, snowboard and hang with carly. I also like to read

Lisa: sky would like kris to know that she thinks he is Hot!!!!!

Kris Pope: Thanks SKY!

Yoss: For both, Finish the Sentence: If i could redo an aspect of my life, i would _____ .

Kris Pope: not change a thing (embrace your successes and learn from your failures)

Jamie_Bell: I am happy where I am and believe in no regrets...so I can't honestly answer that

Jei: That's really great to hear young men like yourselves say that.

onionroach: How do you think your characters will effect the interactions of the other characters on the show?

Kris Pope: my character has interactions with nearly everyone, so the possibilities are endless

Jamie_Bell: My character hasn't had enough time on the show to effect a lot of other characters...we'll see if they bring me back

iaries: simpsons, like or not (how can you not?)

Kris Pope: LOVE THE SIMPSONS!!! Absolutely brilliant show in every way!!

Jamie_Bell: You can't not like the Simpsons

Jamie_Bell: MR_Manager loves them too

Lisa: I did know that :p

Mr M: Of the Simpsons?

(Jamie disconnected from chat on accident)

Kris Pope: he'll be back---just a mistake

Kris Pope: we're on it

Jei: Oh no problem

Lisa: ok thanks kris

beanz: Who do you believe was/is the greatest actor and actress of all time? why?

Kris Pope: That's impossible for me to answer, because there are so many gifted actors.

(Jamie Bell reenters)

Yoss: welcome back

Jamie_Bell: oops!

Kris Pope: Two of my favorites right now, are Benicio Del Toro (for everything he does) and Reese Witherspoon she's hilarious)

Jamie_Bell: I can't say who my favorite is..though I admire...Johnny Depp more than most

Yoss: Will you guys stop by the message boards after Bag'em and Radar Love?

Kris Pope: my pleasure

Kris Pope: tell the 'shippers to be NICE

Lisa: I'm sure Jim can get you set up with posting names.

Yoss: oh, one more thing.. any websites in the works?

Kris Pope: www.krispope.com (thanks Lisa)

Jamie_Bell: I am working on a few music ones but nothing for acting yet

Jei: Kris, I just recently saw Josie and the Pussy Cats, how was that shoot?

Kris Pope: Great. We had alot of fun. I filmed on that for over a week and ended up being on screen for less than ten seconds

Lisa: :-( that's not fair.

Kris Pope: But---it was very funny (Parker Posey is absolutely hilarious)

Jei: We still enjoyed the dance number ;)

Kris Pope: Thanks

Yoss: What sort of surprises should we expect in the interaction of Max/Rafer and Asha/Logan in Radar Love?

Kris Pope: Rafer is a nice guy (and we developed the character to reflect that). He isn't interested in just gettin freaky with max, but rather to get to know her

Elysia: I just went to his krispope.com .. Whats with the pic? :)

Kris Pope: It's a promotional shot I did in London. Sorry about the nipple showing......

Lisa: lol
