This just in from Executive Producer James Middleton: “Shortly before the holidays, I heard Shirley Manson laughing and screaming with delight on stage. She had noticed that her chair finally had her name on it. It was a first in her career as an actress. I was kind of amazed at her reaction because, well, she’s a rock star and she’s seen her name everywhere. But that’s Shirley. Zero cynicism. Living in the moment. Totally engaged and loving the show. But then it went missing…”
Overzealous Garbage fan in our ranks? Simple case of a misplaced chair back? We may never know.
But she does have a new one now… and we have some extras hidden away just in case it goes missing again…

You guys should provide some clue: “-More-”
She is still on the show? Bah.
Why would someone make a comment like that? She’s been very good on the show about giving a creepiness to that character. Fun stuff.
She looks excited there. Pretty cool.
She looks so cute in that photo!
Shirley Manson, ftw.
she looks “good” in that picture ! how about letting her look like that in a episode?
I think shirley has done a good job with the weaver character.
her story arc with the turk and john henry was for me the most interesting part of the 1st 13 eps. it just that her hair and the way she dresses for the show keeps her from being pretty like in this picture.
I would like to see weaver be around for S-3 as well.
I wonder if dan H. has a song for this picture ….?
Shirley Manson is wonderful! She is a star of music, known throughout the world, still remains a humble person. I admire that woman! She is great in his first experience as an actress, I’m sure that will improve every day. I love Catherine !! She is beautiful in the picture!!!
She’s so awesome ^_^ I’ve been a fan of Garbage for awhile, and I love the character Catherine Weaver, and I think she does a great job!
Garbage rocks
She does a good job with the Weaver character. I wonder if she’s going to throw down anytime soon. Keep up the good work Shirley!
You rock Shirley! =)
Shirley is doing a great job! I love Catherine, is a very interesting character. The hair of Catherine has to be equal to the picture! The Shirley is very beautiful!
Shirley Rocks!!! : )
OOOOh, a throw down would be great! I also concur with the person who said it would be great do see Shirley look more like the picture in the show. Not sure if it meshes with the character though!
Shirley is awesome in the show!! She makes a great terminator! It’s nice to hear how down to earth she is. 2.0 is one of my favorite albums. You ROCK Shirley!!
What kind of sick sociopath would steal anything from Shirley?
It’ll be interesting to see how they end up killing her ass on the show.
Shirley is trying something new and having fun with why take that away from her?
Because keeping Weaver makes no sense?
Because she’s been a step away from the Connors for half a season and hasn’t gone after them? Because she makes Ellison look painfully naive? Because, other than being an exposition gimmick, she doesn’t really have a clear purpose on the show? Because, as long as she is on the show, there’s absolutely no need to, I don’t know, actually *show* the development of Skynet or *show* the future from Skynet’s or John Henry’s point of view when she can just casually throw tidbits here and there?
Nothing personal against Shirley, but there’s just too much contrivance and postponement involved in keeping her. And it’s not as if the show is lacking in the agenda from the future department this season.
In the beginning I wasn’t to sure about Weaver but since that freaky episode with her daughter I am completely sold!
She is absoletely creepy as a T-1001. Go Shirley! You deserve that chair
If only I understood what the hell weaver’s scheme actually is…
Shirley ought to let her hair down and go wild a couple of times as Weaver. She wants to experience the human condition, doesn’t she? She seems fascinated by it.
And yes, Shirley does look much better with her hair down and having a ball. [blushes]
t5000, this song’s for you, buddy! LOL!
John Henry, Agent Ellison, and Catherine Weaver… the odd couple.
Here’s JH’s and Ellison’s tribute to this red-headed, dangerous beauty! Who will win her polyalloy “heart?” Tune in next season… if there is one, that is! [shakes fist] Dekker! (grrrr…)

And to whomever took Shirley’s chair, uncool dude or dudette… VERY uncool! Feel the wrath of the fans of Garbage!
Liquid metal with her own chair?! I don’t like it one bit.
Congratulations Shirley! I hate to admit it, but I’d never listened to Garbage before, so my introduction to your craft was entirely through your portrayal of Catherine Weaver. And you knocked me out of *my* chair.
Keep up the great work, and keep living in the moment.
Taylor
cool
Ha, what a great picture! Such a cute story about Shirley being excited! Yeesh, I’m glad the chairback has been restored and there’s some extras! Those dang Garbage fans!
Catherine has an important role in history, I’m sure that will be the big surprise of the story. …
The look of Catherine you be the same picture above!
For those who did not know the Shirley before TSCC, has better know the history of the Rock, she was elected last year by Rolling Stone magazine one of the women who revolutionized the rock world.

Bruna,
How did she so this? In a long history of Rock what did she do that was revolutionary? Just curious. I met Little Richard a copuple of times and he’ll tell anyone who listens the same thing (and he’s right…).
When are Weaver and Ellison going to hook up?
“She had noticed that her chair finally had her name on it. It was a first in her career as an actress. I was kind of amazed at her reaction because, well, she’s a rock star and she’s seen her name everywhere. But that’s Shirley. Zero cynicism. Living in the moment. Totally engaged and loving the show.”
And that is why Shirley Manson is utterly awesome.
Congrats Shirley!
Congrats Shirley!!!
I stole the chair, and if I don’t start seeing some money flow my way from the producers of this show, I’m gonna start cutting out letters and mailing them to you one-by-one…..
Ps: you guys are brilliant, much love.
Pps: seriously not kidding about the ransom money though……hop to it!!
I like her…
Hi,
gratulation to her!!
