| | Some of her other work includes guest appearances on ''Smallville'', ''The L Word'', ''Dark Angel'', ''The Twilight Zone'', and other Canadian productions. Nicki's big break is arguably her roll as Specialist Crewmen [[Cally]] on the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|re-imagined Battlestar Galactica]] [[Miniseries]] and subsequent appearance as a recurring character on the regular series. |
| Clyne described her character, Cally, as someone viewers could easily relate to. "She’s a very strong, tough and smart woman who knows exactly what she’s doing," she stated. "She’s an open and warm character, but she also stands her ground. She doesn’t let people push her around."<ref group="Book">{{Cite book|author=David Bassom|title=[[Battlestar Galactica: The Official Companion]]|year=2005|publisher=Titan Books|isbn=1845760972|page=132}}</ref>

| She also commented on Cally's defining relationship with [[Galen Tyrol]]: "Cally has a huge crush on Chief Tyrol, and she’s very loyal to him. She’s also a little bit in awe of him, because he’s her boss and he’s a very commanding presence."<ref group="Book">{{Cite book|author=David Bassom|title=[[Battlestar Galactica: The Official Companion]]|year=2005|publisher=Titan Books|isbn=1845760972|page=131}}</ref>
| | Nicki filmed an appearance in a [[Wikipedia:VH1|VH1]] production slated for early 2006 called "Totally Awesome;" however, the production now appears to have been shelved, though it might be released on DVD. She also has a minor role in the July 2006 film [[Wikipedia:John Tucker Must Die|John Tucker Must Die]]. |

| Regarding the attempted rape scene in "[[Bastille Day]]", Clyne found it to be a "very difficult scene to do," but felt it was "important to show that Cally is a survivor."<ref group="Book">{{Cite book|author=David Bassom|title=[[Battlestar Galactica: The Official Companion]]|year=2005|publisher=Titan Books|isbn=1845760972|page=131}}</ref>

| She was surprised by the character's popularity with viewers. "I feel very lucky to be a very small part of this show, and I never expected there to be so much interest in my work," she said. "I’ve been surprised by what people have noticed and have picked up on, and I never thought Cally would stand out so much. That’s been really wonderful.”<ref group="Book">{{Cite book|author=David Bassom|title=[[Battlestar Galactica: The Official Companion]]|year=2005|publisher=Titan Books|isbn=1845760972|page=133}}</ref> | |
