Jill Bennett is BACK on the Web!

So Jill Bennett is back!!! With a new v-log titled “The Violet Underground” where she talks about anything and everything. There will be new episodes every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday! I just saw the first episode and it looks like it’s going to be much more political than We’re Getting Nowhere. It’s really funny and there is a new episode tomorrow. Watch the first episode here and stay tuned for more. It is hosted by Shewired.com. I think Jill needs to work on her lighting a little with the various angles. That made me laugh. Anyway, I am so glad she is back on the web, I’m sure I’m not the only one who missed her after We’re Getting Nowhere finished.

Welcome back Jill!

Best.WGN.Video.Ever.

I was looking around on YouTube and found this AMAZING We’re Getting Nowhere video. It is really good if you have ADD =P it is really fast and has good editing.

OMG AMAZING!!! I heart Jill. and Karman. and Dara. and Bridget.    <3

Best of Jill Bennett Part II

Part two of the best bits of Jill Bennett was posted a while ago by charlie2288 and so I’m going to post them because Jill Bennett is my life…kind of…in a non-stalkerish way…yeah.

 

Part one again just for kicks:

and part two, the new part:

Isn’t she awesome?? And thanks charlie2288!!

I Swore This Would Never Happen…

Ok, I’ve always been a fan of We’re Getting Nowhere from AfterEllen (no kidding, right?) except they’ve never recapped a series that I actually watch. I got caught up on South of Nowhere after they had finished it because I don’t get it where I live (or couldn’t find it, one of the two.) I don’t watch America’s Next Top Model simply on principle and I’d seen the pilot from The L Word and didn’t like it. But now I’m in France. and bored. I therefore watched the next episode of the L Word just to give it another chance. That was two weeks ago and I’m now on season three.

 

I never expected to like the L Word. My two straight sisters love it and have all the DVDs. I am going to try to catch up on everything before the sixth season starts and watch that as it airs. I just hope its at a time when I’m not at my mothers house, or I might be PVRing everything to watch later. I am hooked!

 

Also, Dara, Karman and Jill are going to recap season one of the L Word starting Wednesday until the sixth season starts. Finally something I’ve seen before!!!

It’s Been Awhile…Ca Va?

Ok, so I know it’s been awhile since I posted anything, why? I went to France. I mean, I’m still in France, but I don’t have a lot of free time to do things like write blog posts. I’m staying with another family for three months, meaning I’ll be back in Canada on May 5th. Not that anyone really cares, just saying.

I want to make a video for my family and friends and post it on YouTube so they can all see, but I am a bit reluctant to because that would be difficult to explain, why I’m sitting in my room talking to my camera. I don’t actually speak French, just so you know. That’s the point of this whole thing. And of course culture and experience.

On a completely different note, a WHILE ago, charlie2288 posted the best bits of Dara and Karman as well, so I’ll put them up here too. I think the ones of Jill and Bridget are better, but they also have more quotable quotes I think. Although I do love Dara’s “Everybody Poops” comment.

So there’s those… Also, a really cool video about the upcoming presidential election in the United States was made by MC Jew C and Lil’ Mitzvah so I thought I’d post that too…

 

I think that’s it… If I think of something else I’ll post it… I’m seeing Sweeney Todd for the 3rd time on Wednesday (in French, but still, the songs are in English). I HATE horror films and am scarred for life everytime I watch one. This is no ordinary horror film though. If you haven’t seen it, see it now. Immediately. Toute suite. Alrighty, Au revior.

JILL IS BACK

Ok, so this is kind of old news, but JILL BENNETT RETURNED TO WE’RE GETTING NOWHERE.

It completely made my life.

 ANYWAY, they had their finale episode and Bridget McManus (that may or may not be spelled correctly) who filled in for Jill will be getting her own vlog Brunch with Bridget. Oh my goodness another vlog to watch.

Also, Jill, along with fellow AfterEllen vloggers Karman Kregloe, Dara Nai, Michelle Paradise, Sarah Warn and Lori (also with Marnie Alton from Exes and Ohs), was in the Best and Worst dating stories vlog where they reenacted the stories sent in by AfterEllen readers. One reader even wins a prize! It is hilarious, and you should watch it here. Amazing.

 

I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season, and cannot wait for Cashmere Mafia on January 6th.

Lesbian/Bisexual Visibility PSA

In this week’s Best.Lesbian.Week.Ever. on AfterEllen.com, My favourite bloggers made two PSA’s directed at the striking television writers about lesbian visibility on television. I am going to post them here so that they can get as many views as possible. (aka, so that the one person who reads this can see them). The first one is serious and the second one is more comical. Please watch them both. I really hope they get those writers thinking. It would be nice to see some lesbians characters on television that aren’t crazy or looking for sperm donors or dating their look-alikes.

I love how angry Jill looks in that. And the second:

So I thought that that was pretty important, and cool because I actually know who these people are and watch their vlogs. So writers get writing some good lesbian/bisexual storylines. Please!

Idina

I just thought I’d post Idina Menzel’s new YouTube video for everyone’s viewing pleasure. It’s about her album “I Stand” and you can see her dog in the background. So cute. Here:

Also, Jill Bennett is not going to be on We’re Getting Nowhere for a while because she is filming something.  Which kind of sucks because we don’t get to watch her on We’re Getting Nowhere every week but also doesnt because it means she will be in something else that we can go see. So that will be fun. Anyhoo. That’s it really. Just for fun I’ll post a cute picture of Jill and Jamie just because I love this picture. It’s from Sarah Nebel’s music video Jasmin.

I’m KYLA

I found my favourite clips of Jill on We’re Getting Nowhere and thought I’d put them up here. Mostly so I can view them all on the same page, but also just to post them. Just because.

 Ok, the first, my favourite, I’m KYLA:

My other favourite, Dude Looks Like a Lady:

 

Third, Pound the Doughnuts:

The Spangs fight reenactment:

And the Gay Pride reenactment:

Holy Jill Bennett

So as an avid reader of the AfterEllen blogs, I unfortunately have only been watching two of the video blogs (She Made Me Watch This and Who Thought THAT Was A Good Idea?) but reading everything else. But NOW  I have begun to watch We’re Getting Nowhere and I think that it is so incredibly funny and enjoyable even though I don’t watch the shows that they blog about. So I thought I’d share that with you, and the fact that Jill Bennett is on it just makes my life complete. I found a YouTube video with clips. Also, if you want to look for other Jill Bennett movies and stuff because she is so cool, her official website is here.  So enjoy the YouTube clip and….yeah….everyone go watch the video blog now.
