Happy birthday to Lexa Doig!

Canadian actress Lexa Doig set her heart on a life in front of audiences and cameras at an early age, so she dropped out of high school to pursue a career in modeling and acting. By 19, she landed her first major television role (playing "Cowgirl" in two "TekWar" movies and in the television series from 1994 - 1996).

As the 2000s arrived, she became a mainstay of sci-fi and fantasy television series, having a starring role leading parts on "Andromeda" (2000 - 2005) and popping up in almost any sci-fi/fantasy series or major made for TV movie in recurring supporting roles or one-shot guest appearances.

Doig even stepped onto the big screen, performing the starring role in "Jason X" (2001), a sci-fi take on the venerable slasher "Friday the 13th" series where Doig and the unstoppable homicidal maniac of the title are revived in a distant future to resume a battle that had remained unfinished. It's my personal favorite among the Jason/Friday the 13th films, and it's the only one I own a copy of.

Doig remained as busy as even as the 2010s arrived, remaining in front of sci-fi fans in series like "Continuum" (2012-2014) and "Arrow" (as a recurring guest-star during the 2017 season), but also branched increasingly out into dramas and mysteries; Doig has been a very popular co-star of the "Aurora Teagarden Mysteries" made-for-TV movies from 2015 through 2022 -- 16 films so far!

Today, Doig turns 50 years old. We celebrate this milestone with a small gallery of pictures  of her in little-more-than her birthday suit.
