Water World ready for its closeup


24 Aug 2004

Water World is bathing in Hollywood's limelight this month. Lindsay Wagner and Alan Thicke come to town to star in "The Surfer King," a family comedy about a kid from California who moves to Denver and, somehow, finds waves, love, happiness - and himself.

Wagner was on set Sunday, looking bionic and, she said, finishing a nice Colorado week. "I've seen sun, rain, floods - all the things Colorado has to offer," she told me. Almost 30 years after "The Bionic Woman" aired on ABC, Wagner is still recognized by pockets of young fans - the ones who caught the show on the Sci Fi Channel.

Wagner headed home to L.A. Monday; Thicke arrives Thursday.

Kerilynn Pratt, 25, stars as the hero's 16-year-old girlfriend. She looks about 15 and gets carded at Chuck E. Cheese.

"This is such a sweet, innocent movie," she said. "It's not the usual thing about everybody losing their virginity."

So has Pratt, a vet of many films and TV shows, lost her virginity on screen? "Yes, I have," she said. "Twice."

But not in the same movie.

Filming of "The Surfer King" continues at Water World through Sept. 3.
