"She's alive, but a little screwed in the head!"





















  • Heather Locklear: From the "Casting Couch" to the "Psychiatrists Couch" in a few simple steps (Or, "We knew this was gonna happen one day") When Heather's name is mentioned, men automatically say," Damn! She looks good for her age" while the ladies say, "what a damn good actress!" Me? I say, none of the above. Okay, she DOES look good for her age! Good actress? Nah! While I would normally be sympathetic for someone like her that is seeking help for ddepression, anxiety, and stress, this is a classic case of "karma". You see, all the bad luck she unknowingly inflicted on her peers has come back to her and is driving her crazy! Don't refer to her as being a "lucky charm", think of her more as the idol that Bobby Brady found and wore around his neck while in Hawaii. You'll understand in a minute how Heather Locklear happily signs the death certificate of some of your favorite shows and puts a hundred or so people out of work at the drop of a hat! Take a gander at Heather's resume online. To type all the information as it is would give me Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by the time I was done! She's one of those actors that when you see them turn up on your favorite show, you know it's days are numbered. Her two page resume (which requires a magnifying glass to view) is filled with a smorgasboard of movie and tv roles long forgotten. I'll bet you didn't know that Heather popped up in the final few episodes of the following:
  • CHiPs
  • The New Beverly Hillbillies (1981)
  • Dynasty
  • Battle of the Network Stars
  • Blood Sport
  • Texas Justice
  • Spin City
  • Scrubs
  • The Fall Guy
  • *Hannah Montana
  • *Hanna Montana The Movie (2009)
  • * Boston Legal
"*" Denotes still in production or completed
So, what do you get when you mix all this bad luck with squabbling Ex's, friends and lovers like Richie Sambora, Tommy Lee, Pam Anderson, Denise Richards, and Charlie Sheen? PROZAC or REHAB! I say, let the woman take her meds and let Dr. Phil pick her brain a little bit. Afterall, she already tried killing herself once, so they say. Remember when Boston Legal was red hot? After awhile, the audience grew tired seeing a bloated William Shatner and James Spader sitting in their office and sipping Cognac and smoking cigars. Heather moved herself in as a fresh face and now the once "top ten" rated show airs at various times on various days of the week as a "filler" kind of like According to Jim. With Heather away getting her head on straight, Boston Legal may suffer a slow, painful death. ABC better call in another of Heather's Ex's, David Spade. He'll shut down production in no time. Meanwhile, don't let that gal say we never warned her this would happen. Get well soon Heather!
