Fun! I love being on the tee-bee! Not! Man, that TV makeup feels like you’ve been slathered in plaster.
I do love talkin’ ’bout the movies, though…
This is the whole episode. I’m told there will later be a clip of only the Oscar stuff. TWO MINUTES LATER: And here it is already.
You’re famous on the TV!
Very interesting discussion. Nice to hear your voice to go along with your opinions! B)
Interesting panel! And, aside from the makeup, I hope you enjoyed it. Were there any interesting off-camera conversations?
I do wish the host had let anyone — but especially you, MaryAnn – finish their points. Or even their sentences.
That being said, you did great! But I had big-time cognitive dissonance, because you don’t sound how I imagined you from your writing. It’s a bit odd, like when you see a really well-done movie version of a favorite book, but the character’s voices don’t fit. I guess I thought that you’d sound both more New York-y and more nebbish-y.
Good lesson on the dangers of assumptions and stereotypes, I guess.
I had a great time, and yes, the other panelists and I had all sorts of interesting movie conversation while we were getting our makeup done! But probably nothing that anyone who reads this site regularly hasn’t already heard me say.
I can assure you, Dokeo, that I sound very New York. I just don’t sound Noo Yawk, like Fran Dreischer or something… but then again, many New Yorkers do not sound like that.
Famous on the TV? Er, not so much. But I did it for the practice in front of the camera — I’ve done one or two of these before, but it’s always better with practice — and for the chance to reach some people who might not have heard of me before. More traffic is always a good thing.
