Thank You So Much!

i had a smile on my face the whole time, which is what i've been needing lately, thank you!

also, i think Erin Kelly, in essance, is pretty darn perfect.

oh, and Bridget, there is one really sad children's story that came to mind when you said there were no sad children stories, lol..it's called The Little Match Girl or something...basically the little girl like lives on the streets or something and she dies out in the snow..very sad lol.

Mara's picture

Woo-hoo!

Erin Kelly, you rock! I definitely love your brain :) (The fact you're cute is a bonus.)

I can't believe Erin did something I wondered about for the longest time: wrap Bridget in that duvet and push her off the bed. (It is allowed - yay.) HA!

Awesome...

I'm very happy to actually get up early on this Sunday, as I was anxious to watch this ep of BWB and it did not disappoint (not that it ever does).

Erin Kelly is really easy to like... very personable. It's great that she is so LGBTQ friendly... we could use more people like her in the world.

Terrific pillow fight too! Nice strategy, less about the pillow fight more about going right for the win!

Great job as usual Bridget (and Karman)!

Loving Annabelle

Loving Annabelle rocked!  I loved the movie.  I loved the story.  I loved the philosophical questioning it poses.  The love scene flows with pure passion.  I think Erin brought amazing life to the character of Annabelle.  :)

Hey Bridget, Can you coax Diane Gaidry into your bed for an interview, too???

Thanks for the vlog!

diane gaidry. . . omg, right?
antigone's picture

Yes, definitely!

Yes, definitely "OMG."  :)  I think she is very appealing.  The Simone character touches me on many different levels.  I would love to see the actress who brought Simone to life.  I think she played a complicated character extremely well.  :)

Erin Kelly is even more

Erin Kelly is even more awesome in my mind now!  What can't she do?  And it's definately a plus that she's a fellow Leo.

the vid won't play for me either

Is it possible that it's blocking the IP outside of the US?

It's not geo-blocked

The player doesn't work well with certain browsers, and it won't play at all if you don't have an updated version of Flash. But it's definitely not restricted to the U.S. only. If your Flash is updated, your best bet is to try watching it in a different browser (i.e. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera or Safari).

Erin REALLLLYYY reminds me

Erin REALLLLYYY reminds me of Mouse from Lost and Delirious. Like in her looks and her eyes when she looks at the camera or looks down, not necc. when she's speaking though

she seems sweet and nice, haven't seen film but have seen trailer and a vid done to the nice music that was played in Buffy when Willow and Kennedy got together

some kids books do have death. i read one called 'badger's parting gifts' about these animals remembering what wise badger taught them. so sweet. my mum a teacher for little kids would have kids read it if they had a family loss. but yeah most don't, and i doubt they would have a violent storm death!

BWB

Awesome vlog as always. This one had me smiling/laughing the entire time. Also, kudos to Erin for her pillow fight strategy. I always do that when I have pillow fights with my friends and was wondering why no one had ever tried it on BWB! =)

Loving Annabelle

is one of my favorite lesbian movies EVER!

and Erin had the best pillow fighting technique EVAR! im gonna use that next time im engaged in a pillow fight... lol

What An Awesome...

What an awesome interview.  I love the fact Erin is so down to earth and compassionate towards others needs.  It's really refreshing to see that.  The whole group of AE.com people are truly amazing and extremely talented in all that they do as well.  Without you we wouldn't have such a great community to visit here online.  And cool events to attend when the opportunity arises.

 

Erin actually worked for 4 years on Annabelle before it actually went into production...that's a long time to develop a character.  How rewarding that it's been such a success.  Kudos Erin.

Loving Erin!

 

Erin was very sweet and genuine.  She's definitely a great actress to portray Annabelle....kind of a polar opposite.

It's nice to see her so generous with her time and resources to help others.

She looks a lot like Emily Deschanel with her dark hair.

Nice!

She 's such a soft-spoken beauty and a amazing actor! And the pillow-fight at the end- genius :)

But I have a gripe- WHY ISN'T SHE A LESBIAN?!!!

Excellent pillow fighting

Excellent pillow fighting strategy, Erin!

Bridget, really enjoyed it as usual, but the pre-pillow-fight knuckle crack made me flinch. Shouldn't really since I crack other joints but knuckles would be painful for me.
