Picture Perfect Wednesday with Frankie Adams

Born in Samoa and raised in New Zealand, Frankie Adams began her professional acting career at 16 as Uli Levin on the long-running NZ soap opera "Shortland Street". Starting in 2010 and going through 2014, she appeared in nearly 300 episodes (the series airs five nights a week). 

In 2016, she joined the cast of the sci-fi series "The Expanse", where she plays Bobbie Draper, a Martian marine turned-under-cover-operative for a renegade United Nations official. Adams is expected to stay with the show through 2021 when it will come to its conclusion.

Here are a few photos of Adams. And when you're done here, you should head over and watch "The Expanse" on Amazon Prime if you aren't already. It is one of the best sci-fi series ever produced.

Deduction from these photos: Frankie Adams is not allowed to wear pants or skirts at the same time she's wearing shirts or blouses.

Picture Perfect Wednesday with Lily Gao

Lily Gao is a Canadian model and actress who has most recently been seen as the would-be U.N. Secretary General in the latest episodes of the sci-fi series "The Expanse" on Amazon Prime. (That's a show that's outside the scope of this blog, but I strongly recommend watching all four seasons of it. It just keeps getting better and better.)

Today, Ms. Gao is here to demonstrate the unifying theme at Shades of Gray.
