Brunch with Gabrielle Christian ("Brunch with Bridget," Episode 80)

In honor of the 80th episode of Brunch With Bridget (can you believe she's cranked out 80 episodes?), comedian Bridget McManus has made a few changes.

In this very special relaunch episode, special guest South of Nowhere's Gabrielle Christian talks about singing in the the Girltrash feature film (it's a musical!), her wedding this past summer, and her ongoing philanthropic work with FAIR Fund (an international nonprofit preventing human trafficking and sexual violence in the lives of youth, especially girls, around the world).

The new and improved Brunch isn't just a talk show, it's also a variety show. So in addition to an interview with Gabrielle, the show also includes a musical performance by singer-songwriter Marla, and some sketch comedy featuring the prehistoric stylings of Neanderlez, The World's First Lesbian.

Bridget's also delivers some insane dance numbers with her dance troupe, Dance Magic. You might recognize some familiar faces in Dance Magic, namely comedians Cat Davis (Cat On the Prowl) and Fortune Feimster, that is assuming that you can take your eyes off of their amazing leotards.

And Brunch has a new house band, the musical duo That's What She Said, also known as Kathryn Lounsbery and Amy Turner.



Suffice it to say, the new Brunch rocks.

Comment #1 at last!

My lezbro watched Brunch with Bridget on LOGO last night for the first time and was like, "What?! This isn't Brunch with Bridget." He told me about it and I couldn't wait to see this. Great job guys, this was awesome. Cat Davis, you rocked Dance Magic! Just when I thought I couldn't heart you any more, you do this.

Bridget, you should try to

Bridget, you should try to get k.d. lang or Melissa Etheridge as a guest for your show!!!!!!!!

The Neanderlez was awesome I wanted more! =D

spashley20's picture

spencer's all grown up. wah.

i have to be honest...this bored me. i'm a huge spencer fan but gabby just isn't all that entertaining to me. and i'm not trying to be rude, becasue she seems to be normal and really nice...just not my cup of tea i guess.

 i wish mandy had been on instead, she's hilarious

I'm a little dssappointed

I'm a little dssappointed that boys are now allowed on BWB, but otherwise I thought it was great!  Gabby was adorable and Dance Magic was brilliant.  Neanderlez--eh. 

You can change the show format a hundred times, as long as Bridget stays the same.  She didn't disappoint when she said pussy three times and spanked herself.

Whitney's picture

Awesome

I really like the new format, and dance magic was pretty amazing!

I love Gabby. It's so great to see someone so young who is so smart and well spoken.

GABBY!!!!!!!!

I  have never watched BWB on logo till last night I usally watch it on here but I just had to see Gabby last night. She was amazing as always. I'm was so happy she was the very first guest for the new format I loved it i would have watched a whole hour of Bridget and Gabby playing truth or dare and the dancing that Gabby did was just adorable. I can't wait for girltrash the movie .

SPASHLEY/MILBY LIVES ON !!!!!

loved it

I'm loving the new format....the sets, graphics, audio, music, even multiple camera shots....Very nicely done! I'm excited about this change. (might have to change the name now too, no?)

Oh and Gabby was such a great guest. And Cat Davis? Amazing.
Emma's picture

Fantastic

Amazing. Love the new format. Gabby is so pretty, I think I still prefer her as a blonde but she does look good with brown hair. Those dares were kind of lame though, spice it up next episode Bridge. 

CAT DAVIS. She's one classy lady. All in all, great show, can't wait for next week's episode. Great work.

I think some dance magic

I think some dance magic gifs need to happen. Now.
Alexloves's picture

I didn't like it

Not a fan of the new layout.

I dont like the fact that the camera panned to either Bridget or guest so you could not see each others reactions, no pillow fight and none of the usual giddyness, laughter, closeness that I love about the previous shows

This is too much like a chat show now

SAMI   's picture

LOVED IT!

I've watched this episode 3 times in a row because I can't get enough of Dance Magic.  Who knew leotards could be so sexy?

 Does anyone else think Karmen is the blonde cavegirl in Neanderlez?  I checked the credits and it's not listed but Karmen did get a special thanks.

Gabrielle Christian...

Gaby is always such a good guest. Very polite and what not :]

The new layout is...different. Surprised me by how much it changed.  I still like it though!

Annie's picture

I think that Mandy should

I think that Mandy should have been there too! But, it was still entertaining. I agree that this format seems more talk-show ish but maybe it will grow on me, who knows.

Breakout stars...

What a great revue! Love the new show, but do so miss the pillow fight. I look forward to many more episodes of Dance Magic and the cool stylings of That's What She Said. Very proud of everyone involved in the production. GREAT JOB!

decoy's picture

bwb

I love Gabby and it was so great to see her on brunch again :) She's adorable!

As for the new format of the show- I like the new segments, but I miss the intimacy of the bed interviews and the pillow fights. 

Petra's picture

Bring back..........

Bed interviews

Pillow Fights

 

Its just not the same without the intimacy of the bed chats and the fun of the pillow fights.

Other additions are good but shame the interview does not last as long. If its not broke, dont fix it

Ugh. Why is Gabby so cute?Be

Ugh. Why is Gabby so cute?

Be the change you wish to see in the world.
