Michelle Paradise's "Exes & Ohs" Video Blog: Episode 2.7

This week, Michelle takes us to the Season 2 gallery shoot, where she interviews Megan Cavanagh, who plays Chris on Exes & Ohs.

And now that filming is over, she shows us around the set — or what's left of it.

Dumb question

I watched the repeat of "A League of Their Own" over Thanksgiving and now I'm wondering if Megan Cavanagh was in that movie?  Chris is one of my favorite characters on Exes and Ohs.

That was quick!

Pugs - you're right.  Megan played Marla Hooch in "A League of Their Own."

The continuation of a storyline from Season 1 was evident by the decoration of one the rooms and a prop shown in the bloopers. 

I'm looking forward to seeing Season 2.

No Heather Matarazzo :-(

I love Exes and Ohs, and I'm always really excited to see Michelle's great vlogs... but I have to admit, I'm kinda disappointed that Heather Matarazzo has yet to appear with Michelle in any of her vids... She's my fave character in the series, as well as my favourite actress. I'm beginning to worry that she's not in season two! I wonder if Michelle will get a chance to chat to Heather in any future vlogs?

Hip To The Beat, Mommie-O!

Thanks!

That was a lot of fun! I seriously can't wait for the new season... I LOVED the first one. And I'm looking forward to the next episode(s) of this vlog, since you're going to take us to the editing room:D That's what I like to see! Yeah, ok, it's quite boring I know, but I'm sure you'll make it more interesting for us:p

Micheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelle!!

Yeah, sorry, needed to get that out of my system. I do have a question though; When y'all are at the soundstage, where does everyone stay? Do most of the cast/crew live in the neighbourhoud or do they stay in a hotel?

(absolutely looooved your vlog, and I'm with Sorcha, bring Heather into a vlog ;) )

You didn't even take your clothes of, yet you've never looked more naked.

Besides my previous question about how you shoot eppys, where do you guys stay when you are tapping the show?

Hello Michelle, I have

Hello Michelle,

I have something to tell you. You are great, you are a fabulous writer and I can not beleive that somebody like you really exist. I come from France and as you know (well, i think you know that), in France when you are a poor gay girl, you have the choice between live as the best you can or die as quickly you can. There is no Michelle Paradise in France. Sometimes, you can read a book or a magazine, good, ok, but not film and serie. No one. You are allowed to dream, but not to see. I can explain that. What we see, we can think it is real, what we read, it is just our dreams. And dreams are not dangerous, there is no reality. I offered to a friend of mine the Exes and oh's dvd for her birthday, because she is rich and her dvd player can read american dvd... I saw this dvd with her and that was a revelation. The best fiction i never saw. Better than the L word, or Queer as folk (even if QAF is very good). Everyting in Exes & ohs is perfect. What they say, what they are, why and how. That is real, for the first time, i said that is real life. That is what we are. And she told me to see The ten rules, we watced together and i laughed, I liked, very much. At the end, there are some cut scenes, when you say, "so you are a lesbian... a dyke..." and with my friend, we were teenagers again, saying "yeeeees" and laughing.

I just have two questions : i write books (lesbian romance) and i would like to make a lesbian theme movie (perhaps, one day), i just wanted to know how you can do this. What are the steps to sell a serie or a short film ?

And second one, I really like the carachter played by Heather Matarazzo, will she have a better storyline in season 2 ?

Thank you for that very interesting vlog !

1) man, you are

1) man, you are spoiler-paranoid!

2) ah, the sweet sight of striking sets. (I do way too much theater tech. I also immediately recognized the light board as the same kind we have.) 

3) Ok, so, I know this is a really weird complement to pay someone, but because of all the people you've shown us working on this, I specifically plan to buy this show on iTunes instead of illegally pirating it. I don't have a tv here at college, and if I can, I try to watch shows streaming online legally, like hulu, but when I like a show that isn't available like that, I usually end up going with ilicit means, after a long cost-benefit analysis of my lack of a real job and money with my support of hardworking people. But now I've MET some of the hardworking people, kind of, and I can't endorse NOT supporting them. So, brilliant marketing campaign, this.
