Brunch with Nicol Paone (Brunch with Bridget, Episode 51)

This week, Bridget talks to The Big Gay Sketch Show's resident Italian stallion, Nicol Paone.

Bridget asks Nicol some hard-hitting questions about her new Adam Sandler film, Funny People, her stint on a European womens' soccer team, and why she has the name of a popular dinner item tattooed on her body.

Needless to say, Nicol has some explaining to do.

For more information on Nicol, go to her MySpace page or to BGSS's official website.

Brunch With Nicol Paone
(Brunch With Bridget, Episode 51)

Watch new episodes of Brunch With Bridget Friday nights at 2 a.m. on LOGO, and watch previous episodes of Brunch here.

Player Issues

Hmmm, my computer seems to have inherited my innate hatred for children. After Bridget says ‘If you have kids,’ the player implodes and will say nothing more. Is this a me-only problem, or are other folks also experiencing the heart-break of not knowing the end of that question? What could it be? ‘If you have kids… would you eat the placenta? Would you sauté it? With sweet and sour sauce?’

Thanks Karman

Thanks for working hard to fix that for us, Karman....I hope you got to sleep.

 

Great show...Nicol seems cool and I loved hearing about the ghosts and the key story from Bridget. Ghosts following you guys around...that's got to be a weird feeling.

 

Once again, so glad to see the extras since watching this on LOGO....I love that you give us those 5 or so minutes more...I still say they're usually the best parts.

Nicol(e)

Aww I'm so glad you had Nicol on the show!
When the Big Gay Sketch Show came out, I pretty much fell in love with the whole cast.
I can't wait to see the new season in July!

Nicol Paone! I'm wondering that same thing about Nicol's choking Bridget, do new friends have to go through a Nicol choke for initiation? I think we should ask Liz. This episode was a great way to pick up my Sunday afternoon. Can't wait for next week.

21 Minute TV Version

Hi guys-

I'm glad you enjoyed Nicol. She's a riot!  I just wanted you all to know that the television version that airs on LOGO each week is only 21 minutes long (9 minutes are taken for commercials and promos to complete the 30 minute show) so every week AE gets an extended version of the episode. Today's episode is 13 minutes longer than the one that aired on tv.

And a special thank you to the amazing Karman who did stay up all night fixing the player problem.  These technical issues are very frustrating to us as well.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Pisces

Somehow the comment on Pisces is somewhat true, haha. I mean we're not totally crazy though...but we do dabble in a lot of hobbies and change careers like the blink of an eye. Plus, Ms. Paone was born a day after me making her awesome-tastic.
