Many thanks my friends. Stay wonderful🌸

gotta love it man! I mean, it's one thing to chat up someone but to start showing them panda videos, that's another level of down to earth. I love it

2025-02-09 23:37:38 +0000 UTCMy biggest celebrity meeting was Robert Downey Jr. I was 17 and had placed in a national art competition in the US where our artwork was displayed in the Capitol building in DC for a year, and there was a reception for us winners. RDJ was there, and I was a moody little goth girl back in those days, so he put his arm around me and jostled me around and told me to smile lol. And I did! 😂

2025-02-08 22:01:18 +0000 UTCThanks for taking the time to reply Frank! I was just rewatching Before Sunrise recently and thought that, if you haven't watched them yet, that whole trilogy (Sunrise, Sunset, Midnight) would be very ideal for you to react to. There so much about those movies to chew on.

2025-02-06 02:32:01 +0000 UTCI checked in a bunch of WWE pro wrestlers working at my hotel job a while back. Including the current champ Cody Rhodes. He was very kind and talkative, and while I was checking in his travel buddy (Brian Danielson) he was showing me videos on his phone of a panda attacking some random guy in a Chinese zoo. Really solid guy, and every bit the down-to-Earth person he seems on tv.

2025-02-06 00:28:56 +0000 UTCI've met some Finnish celebrities, as Finland's the country I live in. However, during Helsinki Pride 2018, I did run into the American drag queen known as Thorgy Thor, best known for competing in RuPaul's Drag Race, and took a photo with her ^^

2025-02-05 02:24:51 +0000 UTCOh, I wasn’t a child actor. Funny, I had posted that I realize almost everyone would be unfamiliar with Pixanne, but then I forgot about that when I wrote about being on the show. I don’t remember how my brother and I got to be in an episode, but each week Pixanne would have a live audience of children (you had to write in for tickets), and about a dozen kids got to be on the show. I don’t think we were just chosen from among the audience; I think we knew we had been chosen before we went to the studio, but I’m really not sure. As I recall, we were in segments like story time, where we just gathered around and listened to Pixanne tell stories. I remember we were in a segment where we were all parading around with musical instruments. (Funny, I remember my brother had a drum but have no recollection of what I had.) But it wasn’t acting. I was young enough and in awe enough that I probably didn’t even realize there was a person named Jane Norman acting; I probably thought Pixanne could really fly!

2025-02-03 23:43:38 +0000 UTCYep, lifelong Oregonian here (except a year spent in Alaska.) I love the Pacific Northwest 🌲🌊
Bethany that's me
2025-02-03 23:29:22 +0000 UTCWow that's real. Always a fun time to see celebrities be actually kind

Franklin

Franklin

Franklin
2025-02-03 23:05:49 +0000 UTCI know right. I'm going to miss that show
Franklin

Franklin
2025-02-03 23:01:27 +0000 UTCA very welcome and fun storytime indeed. So nice of them to trade you guys to get tickets. I'm sure he meant funny as in haha. I mean you all went for drinks so I'm guessing The Vibes are good It must be very interesting to have met these people before they became super famous. Like small world
Franklin
2025-02-03 23:00:21 +0000 UTCI love how you describe that encounter with him. Some people really do leave a good impression. I've only seen him in a recent Marvel TV show called Falcon and the Winter Soldier. He's an amazing actor ohh you were a child actor. That's freaking amazing. I just looked up a picture of Jane and the TV show. Pretty cool
Franklin
2025-02-03 22:56:37 +0000 UTCSounds good. Thank you
Franklin
2025-02-03 22:52:27 +0000 UTCi've been looking forward to it as well
Franklin
2025-02-03 22:51:40 +0000 UTCWhat a packed year
Franklin
2025-02-03 22:51:09 +0000 UTCJust to let you know, there is a 7th episode in season 3 of Derry Girls, and it's an extra long one!
Sam
2025-02-03 22:49:30 +0000 UTCSounds like a chill job all around tbh. Sometimes I wish hurricanes/fires didn't exist Yes indeed, it's a fun loaded week
Franklin
2025-02-03 22:41:14 +0000 UTCI was a nanny between performance contracts when I lived in NYC, and worked for one celebrity. It was actually pretty low key, the kids were great, and the biggest drama was navigating the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. (They lived in lower manhattan where the power was off for days) Looking forward to the week here!

2025-02-03 13:36:23 +0000 UTCOh and Atypical! Such an underrated and underwatched gorgeous, heart warming, funny, family drama ❤️

2025-02-03 09:50:16 +0000 UTCIf you're looking for more shows like Derry Girls, Fleabag or The Good Place, I have a couple to recommend. Two brilliant drama/comedy/romance shows - High Fidelity which sadly only has one season, and Love starring Gillian Jacobs and Paul Rust. Both have realistic, flawed characters portrayed by amazing actors, and the writing is brilliant. If you google High Fidelity and think it's not rated very highly, I think that's only because it's a remake of a 90s movie and this version was too "woke" for some, seen as they switched some straight white male characters for black, female characters and queer characters.
Kim D
2025-02-03 09:22:24 +0000 UTCDefinitely. And I also think he'd love Atonement
Kim D
2025-02-03 09:16:59 +0000 UTCCan't wait to watch Banshees again. Been a long while.

Franklin
2025-02-03 03:13:22 +0000 UTCWho is it? 🫖🫖 I'm glad for you and your friend, that must be exciting! My kindergarten "boyfriend" from when we were literally 2 years old became a celebrity here in Spain and it's hilarious to see him as a toddler on some of my childhood birthday photos. He used to say he would marry me when we were old... Can you imagine if I took him up on that now that he's famous, and suddenly appeared on his doorstep after 45 years of no contact at all? 🤣🤣

2025-02-03 02:31:12 +0000 UTCBanshees... what a film. Was that 2022? Aftersun, Banshees, and TAR made a great trio of new favorites, especially the first two. The Batman, The Northman, All Quiet on the Western Front, Nope, Fabelmans, good year that 2022.
Blankzy
2025-02-03 02:24:07 +0000 UTCSo cool. I remember when you told me that was Hugh on your profile picture 🧡💛
Franklin
2025-02-03 01:42:15 +0000 UTCI got to meet Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen last summer. (See profile photo.) They were both incredibly sweet. 🥰
Holly Robertson
2025-02-03 01:08:44 +0000 UTCThe way you numbered the Good Place episodes, there's only two episodes left in this season. I know it's 13 episodes per season but the first (hour long) episode is sort of episode 1 and 2. Different streaming platforms list them differently, so it's confusing. Anyway you got 2 episodes of The Good Place left in season 2.
Miguel Lugo
2025-02-03 00:40:52 +0000 UTCYessss finally Severance, oh my god I can’t wait. Thank you!! Now I will finally stop bugging you about it. Nobody spoil this show for him 👊🏻
Amanda Hill
2025-02-02 23:41:37 +0000 UTCI was introduced to Carl Lumbly once backstage after a play, about 40 years ago. OMG the charisma of that man! He took my hand and made me feel like the only person in the room for that 30 seconds. Well, it felt like a long 30 seconds; it was probably 10. But I can still feel the warmth of his hand and his personality when I recall it. I was a huge fan of his on Cagney & Lacey at the time. (Now there is a great TV show I’d completely forgotten about.) The only other celebrity encounter I can think of was when I got to be one of the kids on an episode of the Pixanne TV show, probably when I was 5 or 6 years old. Meeting Pixanne (Jane Norman) in person was pretty darn exciting at the time. I’m not sure anyone who isn’t a baby boomer from Philadelphia will have ever heard of her, but she was a big deal for us.

2025-02-02 23:34:17 +0000 UTCOh, story time! Apart from Spanish artists, when I was 16 years old, I met musician Beck, because he got lost in my neighborhood! 😂 It was a Saturday morning in November 1994, and I was at my highschool because the theater group rehearsed on Saturdays. We were just outside smoking cigarettes (gasp! different times, different times, I quit by the time I was 23). And all of a sudden, a big black bus stopped to a halt. Out of it came two very very foreign looking people! 😅 A blond, pasty man and a blonde pale woman, squinting around, looking thoroughly lost. Mind you, this was a residential street, with my small highschool (not like the campuses in the US, it was just a building on a street), a fruit seller, a stationery shop (the one where I once owed 25 cents!), apartment blocks, so forth. Zero rock and roll... They approached us, and I was the only one who could speak English, so I asked if I could help. They explained they were musicians, and were looking for the concert venue but couldn't find it! So I gave them directions, and in thanks they gave us tickets for the gig. Turns out it was Beck, right before he got famous! He had *just* released Mellow Gold, and was touring super small venues. The one where he played, Revolver, was a tiny room with about barely 60 people. We met him after the concert for drinks and took him and his girlfriend around the city. He said I was "funny", and to this day I still don't know if he meant "haha" or "really odd"... I also met Penelope Cruz before she was superfamous. She studied acting at a school that did free monologues and drinks on Friday, and she alternated behind the bar and onstage. I didn't interact that much, but she was pleasant and nice.
Lola Lirola
2025-02-02 23:26:09 +0000 UTCI'm gonna start a petition to get Frank to watch Before Sunrise! I think it is right up his alley, he would love it. And then do a double feature with Rye Lane and see how the same concept was picked up and modernized for a new audience!
Lola Lirola
2025-02-02 23:11:42 +0000 UTCExcited for Severance, because I started it two years ago when it first aired and absolutely loved it, but then life happened and I never finished it! Great opportunity to do it in good company on these threads.
Lola Lirola
2025-02-02 23:09:35 +0000 UTCI met Rick Ross at the airport years ago🤣
Sarah Wevers
2025-02-02 23:08:24 +0000 UTCSeverance! I think you’ll enjoy it. And now is the time to watch, when the excruciating wait between S1 and S2 is finally over. Someone I went to school with is now a celebrity, but obviously I only knew them before they were famous. And they were always lovely, so I'm happy when I see them in something!
Leticia
2025-02-02 23:05:53 +0000 UTCDerry Girls will only have one episode left after that, since it's a longer one it should be good alone. This week will be interesting.

2025-02-02 22:56:35 +0000 UTCi miss seeing hill house on this list 😭

2025-02-02 22:09:02 +0000 UTCVery excited about "Severance" and "Midnight Mass" -- and super happy you're going to continue/finish "River." :) Thank you, Franklin.
Melissa
2025-02-02 22:01:22 +0000 UTCHey just joined for Hamilton, Hill House, and Good Place and now youre doing Severance and Midnight Mass, hell yeah, two absolutely incredible shows
Nick Rosner
2025-02-02 21:59:55 +0000 UTCI'll be watching Severance for the first time along with the channel. Midnight Mass!! Love this time in the Flanagan multiverse. In my 30s I was part of a veteran's charity pinup troupe in Portland & we worked with many "celebrities," at different venues. (Picture a lesser Baldwin brother type)
Bethany that's me
2025-02-02 21:53:08 +0000 UTCI saw "We're starting Severance this week" and almost screamed?! That's my favourite show on tv right now, I'm so happy you're going to get to experience it!

2025-02-02 21:47:23 +0000 UTCI've met a handful of Japanese musicians and voice actors from when I was active/working in the con circuit and from when I did some work with JRock Revolution back in the day. To this day I treasure knowing how genuinely kind some of these folks are behind the scenes. I feel like contact with the American side of celebrity always has such horror stories.

2025-02-02 21:40:25 +0000 UTCI go to conventions for different TV shows so I've gotten pictures and autographs with a lot of different actors!
