News & Updates from May to December 2002
10 December 2002:
Added some screengrabs from an episode of All is Forgiven (1986) here
Added a few more details to the questions section.
I have created a small separate website for the movie Summer School (1987) here. The site was created to see if there really is enough material to warrant an entire website. It's a work in progress and will eventually have screengrabs and more details. Feedback is welcome. There was a site in existence a few years ago developed by others but it is no longer active.
Site has passed 27234+ unique visits 93 hits from google 1 hit from altavista 1 hit from lycos 1 hit from yahoo 1 hit from looksmart.com 1 hit from msn
Australian viewers might be interested in a contest TV1 is having, details here
According to the imdb, Shawnee provides "imaging voice (Fever 105)" on the Playstation 2 video game "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City", released on 29 October 2002. If anyone has this videogame and can provide more details, such as where her voice is heard, it would be much appreciated. I may add a sound byte of her contribution to the game on this site. (Thanks to Don Gough for the heads up)
For Australian cable viewers, Becker will be aired 6 nights a week on cable channel TV1, starting on 1 December. More info here. Presumably they will show episodes from season 1 to 4 (thanks to Don Gough for the heads up). Season 5 (current season) will probably start around March [?] 2003 on Ten
Becker has not yet been syndicated in the U.S. in the "stripped" format (5 days a week). Since the series has now passed the magic 100+ episodes, it will probably go into U.S. syndication next year (September 2003).
20 November 2002:
The episode of "The FBI Files" titled "A Model Killer" (60m) about Christopher Wilder (dramatized in Easy Prey (1986)) is scheduled to be rerun on the Discovery Channel in the US on 5 January 2003.
Many of the emails this site receives concern the mistaken identity between Shawnee Smith and other actresses. I have added a "Not Shawnee Smith Gallery" here to distinguish her from some of the other actresses that resemble her.
15 more screengrabs from the current season of Becker here 8 screengrabs from The Shining (1997) here negative Easy Prey (1986) review, 24 October 1986 here People Magazine article, 28 November 2000 here Recent public appearances updated in questions section

22 October 2002:
A selection of screengrabs from the first 3 episodes of the 5th Season of Becker added here
On 27 February 2001, Shawnee was interviewed on "The Chaunce Hayden Show" at eyada.com, a webcast radio show [site has been shut down].
According to this site: "February 28, 2001 - Shawnee Smith from CBS' Becker was on the Chaunce Hayden show at eYada.com Tuesday recounting an incident on the red carpet for an event where, while trying to get out of the way for Christina Aguilera, members of her entourage physically shoved the actress out of the way."
Interesting developments on Becker according to this article:
"Among the upcoming story lines: ... ditzy nurses' aide Linda (Shawnee Smith) has to keep going to the airport to convince a new boyfriend that she's from out of town." [episode is called "L.A. Woman"]

6 October 2002:
Reminder: The 5th season of Becker starts tonight in the U.S. at 7pm central time right after 60 Minutes. I'll probably post a few screengrabs from the episode in a day or so.
Her imdb.com entry has a new photo and more information about her latest feature film, "Never Get Outta the Boat"
Screengrabs from Leaving Las Vegas (1995) here

Fixed cover scan of "Steppin' Out" article here, added a fun picture to the main page. In the next few days I will add several items to the gallery section. I will generally try to avoid including pictures that exist on other sites.
25 June 2002: based on a lead from Don Gough (thank you) and contact with this site (thank you, as well), it appears that the "Silver Spoons" episode she appeared in was called "Growing Pains, Part One." I have added the information to the television section. The series was shown within the last few years on Nick-At-Nite in the US, though I haven't seen it recently.
Site has passed the 4150+ "unique" visits mark; just 19 hits specifically from google.com newsgroups search
18 June 2002: This site has received over 2361 unique visits to date.
Some interesting stats from the web log, if it's to be believed, indicate visitors from Australia (9%), Netherlands (4%) and over 30 other countries from every continent except Antarctica. Although I do see several of the same individual visitors many times, there are a number of unique visitors from each of these countries.
Shawnee must have a greater following around the world than I thought. I think Australia is currently showing the 4th season of Becker
I have posted a few images related to I Saw What You Did, Crime of Innocence & Brand New Life from 1988-1990 TV Guides
