Best
known for her role as Beth in the off-the wall
comedy: News Radio, Vicki Lewis pursued
a brief movie career shortly before the final
season of the syndicated sitcom. The two major
projects on the table were Mousehunt,
the slapstick comedy which, true to its name,
revolved around the capture of a peculiar mouse
and the antics which inevitably ensued; and also GODZILLA (1998), a very loose remake of the classic sci-fi
movie of the same title. Although Mousehunt was a critical success, its fame was very shortlived. GODZILLA (1998) lost its legs at the box office after the
opening weekend. Vicki promptly returned to News
Radio as it lived out its final season following
the passing of Phil Hartman.
Since the close of
the last decade, her career has consisted mainly
of TV cameos, with one notable exception being
a small role in the box office smash, Finding
Nemo. The future looks to be a return to
the bigscreen, with Out of Omaha; however, another Toho-related
project appears unlikely. |
