I’m getting so close to being done with the binge! I ended up only doing three recaps this time even though I inteded to do my usual. The probelm was I wrote so much I didn’t want to make the article be so long! The interview with Jenny was so good I spent a lot of time on that part! Lol! Its been fun ya’ll!!
So episode 25 is another AMA. They talked about what fragrence they use, boating, what makes them excited. I think my favorite question this episode was the one about doing live shows! They said they might do that and I think that would be so fun. I would sooo go if they did one near me. If not I’d get my sister and we’d fly to one. haha. Alex talked about working with Daniel Gillies who played Mark. Alex’s daughter and son made a small cameo they are adorable!! Oh and Alex’s kitty made a cameo too. Her kitty Dolly reminds me of my cat Dixie. So cute. I’m a cat person too.
The next episode is another random with just the two of them. 15 minutes into it and I was already laughing. Alex choosing if she were an animal that she’d be a beaver was actually perfect becuase the way she talks I could totally see that. Zibby being mind blown by that being the animal she chose had me dead. I can’t with these two. Alex talked about a documentary she watched while having a martini. One again they had me laughing.
Alex talked about how she used to get panic attacks when it came auditions and stuff. That was such a relatable convestation when it came to the panic attack aspect. My anixety can be a joke at times so I know what thats like. I am glad she is better now. They took some questions at the end one of them was advice would they give each others characters. Alex said she’d tell Brie not to get back together with Brady. Zibby gapsed and said she’d piss a lot of people off. HAHA. Zibby said she’d tell Mel tot take time to herself becuase she’s alwyas helping others. The next question was did their freindship click right off. The answer was no because they didn’t really hang out the first season Zibby was on. Zibby said it wasn’t until the second season when she was on. Alex said they dont’ really know it just kind of happened and felt like they’d been friends forever.
The next question was asking if they live in the same state and Zibby answered that! They have talked about this before how they live in the same city that Zibby and her hubby moved there because they loved the area and that way she was closer to Alex too. The last question if they ever break during filming. Alex said it happend when they filmed the baby shower scene and Mel takes Brie outside. She said after the scene they just busted up laughing the two of them Zibby said the other time was when Brie brought her muffins. So cute!!
The next episode is their interview with Jenny Cooper who plays Me’ls sister Joey on Virgin River. I am only 16 minutes into it but I am loving it!! I always knew she looked familiar to me and I looked her up real quick to see what she’s been in before I started watching and saw it wasn episode of Greys Anatomy in Season 12. That’s why she has looked familiar to me. Love me some Greys. We need to get Alex on there since I feel like she’s the only one from Virgin River that hasn’t been! Also can they Zibby too bc I want some nurse Zibby reapperance. LOL.
Anyways Jenny talked about how she will come to Vancouver and shoot all her scenes for Virign River’s season they are working on in 2 days. She talked about how one time she was up all night before having to film the next day. The girls related to her on that as its happened to them before too. Jenny mentioned how working with Alex she will go into a scene with her and she will have it in her head how it will go but Alex never does what she thinks she’s going to do. Zibby agreed with her and laughed saying how she was right. They reassured Alex it was a compliment and Jenny went onto say how Alex is an anchor for her on the show.
Jenny talked about how she got into acting, she talked about writing a movie script that one of the proudcers on Virign helped her put out ther and how she found out she was pregant with twins & that the script got picked up at the same time. Her and Alex related about having kids and filming, Jenny is getting into directing. Alex asked her about getting the role on VIrgin River since she knew the proudcer. Jenny explaimed she loked at the script and it was for Charmaine(I thought this was interesting) but as she read Joey’s lines as well she felt she was more of a Joey. Roma the producer showed her pictures to someone who said she looks too much like Alex to be Charmaine so lets do the sister and so Jenny submitted her stuff and that it took a little while to hear back but she got the role of Joey! I love that story! I agree she’s the perfect Joey. They all talked about Virgin River, and fan recognition. Zibby asked about self belief and they all spent some time talking about that. It was such a great inspiring conversation. The girls closed out the conversation by asking Jenny what she loves about herself. She said her heart and how she cares about others. That would be my answer as well I think! Loved this interview so much!
I just love this podcast so much! The girls are so great and I’m proud of them for all they have done so far with it and how they do each episode!
