The actress (Brook Kerr) who was initially cast to play Tara:



Same scene, with my secret (it's a secret because she doesn't know) girlfriend Rutina Wesley:



I have no idea why Brook didn't end up playing the part, I really don't care. I'm just glad. She doesn't have....facial expressions. I don't know if I could stand watching her as Tara.

Of course, I could just be biased because I am "used to" Rutina as Tara. Or because I think Rutina is more attractive.

I'm really glad that the writers have given Tara more depth than what she started out with on the show. It's so good to see her doing things other than yelling at people.
