Ohh great interview, and I don't think we can get Somebody Somewhere here, and now I REALLY want to watch it (I think HBO is not able to stream here?😫) Yes!! to the Jeremy A W "We are having a hard time seeing anyone but Carmy" situation 😂 - and have you seen there's a new Bridget Jones coming, with Hugh making a cameo-ish comeback as Daniel?! XO

I think it might be on Sky Player? Or to purchase on Prime. It’s so worth it!! And yeah JAW is always Carmy to me, even with a mullet in The Iron Claw. I saw the Bridget Jones trailer and into her hopefully dating Dex from One Day. Omg did you see Hugh recently on Graham Norton and his reaction to the clip of him on a Wonka junket?😂

Did you find the clip? It made me like him more even though he’s so crabby! And yeah I was a wreck with One Day😭. Thank you for reading as always! ❤️

Noooo, so funny you followed up because I went down quite the (very fun!) rabbit hole on YouTube just yesterday (including a clip on Fallon or another show where Timothée is very, very badly disguised as an audience member and asks how Hugh found working with him? Worth it for that alone!) 😂😂

I love those YouTube rabbit holes (that’s me this week but Paul Mescal) and I must find those! Hugh as the Oompa Loompa will never not make me lol “Je joue Oompa Loompa”

😆🙌😂 (Graham Norton was so good this week or last, with Kate Winslet—I digress!) Happy new week!! XXX

Jenni, I did see that re Bridget Jones! Can’t wait to see it. (We have so many items on our news lists and then we run out of space in our newsletter. 🤪Might be time to add another pub day soon )

Love a Bridget moment, and Darcey’s Christmas jumper forever!! (You have THE BEST news lists! Roll on Valentine’s release next year, and we can compare notes!!) 💖

That show seriously feeds my soul- it's just so three-dimensionally good! Love this interview and insight from Mary Catherine Garrison. And omg the Corningware- so fun to see it last night on the show- I have my late mom's and they are a prized possession!

"Somebody Somewhere" is just a little miracle of a show--so sweet and lovely, and I'm so sad it's ending! I'm really going to miss Sam and Joel and their friendship.

It really is and I’m so sad, too. We need it now more than ever!!

Truly!

Oh that blue flower Corning ware made me squeal! My mom still has hers, by the time I got married in 1994 they just made plain white pieces. I told her to keep them for me!

I’ve got some from my grandma. And I collect 70s Pyrex pieces, the ones with the green flowers

They’re so expensive!!

The “f*ck you Susan” moment was tops. I think I’ve shouted this from the Substack rooftops through enough notes but Joel is tops. That reaction he had to Sam’s venting about Susan! The best

Expand full comment

Omg I was so mad at her with the donuts!! I’m glad you appreciated that lol. I love Joel so much too and his giggle

Expand full comment

It was a real low blow and completely uncalled for. I don’t love what they are doing with her character but not everyone is likable and that’s valid too. Though I’d hope by virtue of her being with Fred she’d be a lot cooler

Expand full comment

Yeah, I wondered the same thing. Like there always are new friends/partners that come in and change the dynamic, but she was especially harsh. Maybe that interaction propelled the health plot line? I need to find some interviews!

Could not love this show (and cast) more!

Same!! I’m going to really miss it!

I have watched “Somebody Somewhere” since Day One. I laugh and cry during every episode, and I’m so sad it’s ending.

I know the show is just so perfect. I’m gonna miss it 😭
