Dann sind wir ja einer Meinung Lola.
Strokeofluck hat nun auch einen Clip von BB in Englisch gefunden (vom 29.05.). Dankeschön
und ich muss sagen, Bills Ego ist größer als er selbst und Joanna Johnson (Karen) kann mit ihrem Augenrollen sogar Crystals Augenbrauen hochziehen konkurrieren.
Bin jetzt schon gespannt, wie erschaut, wenn er herausfindet, dass Daren nicht nur BFFs sind.

Joanna, are you aware of everything Crystal has done for the gay community, and how she has managed to take an under-represented part of the population and given them various platforms to see their lives portrayed?
J: I was aware of everything Crystal has done. I am a subscriber to her web series, Venice. I think it’s amazing what she has been able to do. Do you know how many professional high-profile producers and writers have tried and failed at creating a hit web series? I am blown away and so impressed by what she has done. I joked with her when we met, “You play gay professionally, but for me this is a whole new thing.” And after I said yes to the storyline, I came home and told my wife, Michelle, and we laughed. I said, “I guess this means there is going to be some kind of press and I can’t just sit there and go, “Yes. It’s very challenging to play a gay character and not say anything. That would be ridiculous.” So I said, “I am going to talk about my life, and is that cool?” I mean, she doesn’t care. She is a club promoter and very out. I want my kids to feel that we are not living some kind of secret, which we are not.
Speaking of your kids, tell us about them and how it works for you in public, with them having two moms?
J: You know, we just got back from Hawaii and I am wondering, ‘What are people thinking in the airport?” There we are, two moms and our kids are biracial. And they don’t look anything like us, of course. [Laughs] My son will call us Big Mama and Small Mama as we are going through the airport! I mean, how could I ever think I am not totally out? [Laughs]
...
So are the two of you clicking in rehearsal and onscreen? Any issues come up? It’s kind of a reverse situation. Crystal has played gay and Joanna you are gay, but have never played it on TV!
J: Crystal is fine and fantastic, and I am the nervous, giddy, silly one. We had to take these pictures together and have them on the mantel in our scenes. We had to have our arms around each other and pretend we are at the Grand Canyon. I was all nervous and at one point Crystal goes, “I can feel you pulling away.” [Laughs] And I go, “Oh, I am so sorry. It’s bringing up a lot of my issues.” [Laughs]
C: Joanna is a great actress. I was honestly relieved. [Laughs] Yes, she is a beautiful woman, but I was like, “Oh, she is really good.” It’s a joy. I feel like I am sitting back watching this thing unfold. I don’t know where it’s going, but it’s exciting.
Crystal, what can you tell us about Danielle?
C: She is in a committed relationship with her partner. They have a mad love for their daughter. Like any good parents, that is their focus, their child. She is a writer and she feels like she hasn’t been able to achieve her goals and her dream.
J: We don’t know that much yet of the characters, as it’s all just coming to light. But in one of the first scenes I felt like I was ordering Crystal around. [Laughs] I am like, “Do this! Do That!” If I was that way to Michelle, she would tell me to go get it myself!
