Dina Meyer Menaces Point Pleasant
-- Tuesday January 11th, 2005
Meyer Menaces Point Pleasant
SF&F veteran actress Dina Meyer (Starship Troopers) told SCI FI Wire that her latest TV series, Fox's Point Pleasant, is definitely another entry in television's supernatural sweepstakes. "The pleasant town of Point Pleasant, N.J., on the Jersey shore, gets turned upside down when a young, beautiful girl [Elisabeth Harnois as Christina] washes up on the shore," Meyer said in an interview. "Meanwhile, as she wakes up and starts to meet all the people around her, we find out that she's the devil's daughter."
Meyer, whose credits include the film Star Trek: Nemesis and TV's defunct Birds of Prey, co-stars in Point Pleasant as Amber Hargrove, a sexy, troublemaking single mother. Her daughter is Paula (Cameron Richardson), the current girlfriend of Jesse (Samuel Page), the young man who rescues Christina. The recently divorced Amber pursues the affections of Dr. Ben Kramer (Richard Burgi), a married man who, with his wife, has just welcomed Christina into his home.
Meyer said that Amber isn't necessarily evil, but that the potential for the character to turn toward the dark side is very real, particularly as she spends more time with Lucas Boyd (Grant Show), the devil's right-hand man. He arrives in Point Pleasant to ensure that Christina fulfills her destiny. "I've been working pretty closely with Grant, so there's that for starters," Meyer said. "And you never know what else is going to happen on Point Pleasant. Right now the writers are staying very secretive about the scripts. Everything is a mystery, and we all just look forward to our table reads." Point Pleasant debuts Jan. 19 on Fox.
