Going back to Canada to do the last episodes of Eureka for season 5 (which isn’t even out for a year, haha).  Wanted to share some links with you, and hopefully I’ll get back to regular blogging in a few weeks when I am back in my own home for more than a week straight!!!

Oh, reminder, I’m gonna be at Chicago Comicon next weekend with Vork (Jeff Lewis).    Looking forward to visiting the city for the first time!

FIRST: Guild episodes! Episode 1 of Season 5, FINALLY UPLOADED! For Xbox and Zune users, you can get the episode (FOR FREE) here, and there’s a handy video to help you find it on you Xbox Live dashboard (in the US).

Yes, I know the staggered release thing is a bit confusing (Xbox/Zune on Tuesdays, MSN on Thursdays) but I appreciate everyone hanging in there!
Also: Here’s the brilliant season 4 recap that Kim Evey, my co-producer wrote. We got Randall, the Honey Badger dude, to do the VO because I AM OBSESSED WITH HIM!

I was on Attack of the Show Monday, here’s my interview (Kevin asked some awesome but strange questions haha)

And there’s a big article on me in Forbes, print AND digital, which is kinda cool. Most of you prolly already know all this about me, but whatever

LASTLY, I was on the last THREE episodes of Eureka. How do you like Holly? I hope you do, I’m gonna be around for a WHILE!
Ok, gotta go pack…eep!

Awesome (and long) interview on Kevin Pollak’s Chat show.

Also, based on my wielding a light saber in the interview, two mashups by@doomdragon &@stanandollie of me beheading him.

Pardon for the press links pile-up, I’ve been neglectful with updating the website and, having a day free, and trying to rectify.

Interview with the hip “Paste” Magazine. They didn’t edit it a lot, so there are a lot of “you knows” in it from the phone call transcription. Oh well. My favorite quote is re: the perception that any of my web video work has rubbed off on traditional Hollywood offers.

The funny thing is, I don’t see it rubbing off in Hollywood. You know, Web video is still the bastard step-child, so I don’t think that my work is making people aware of me in the mainstream, so even through I have my own show, there’s a huge disconnect. But I think in the next year, there’s going to be a huge amount of people getting used to watching video on the web, with Hulu, and Xbox Live, so hopefully the people like me who are pioneering will start rubbing off.

I used to live by Backstage casting listings when I first moved to town. This was a real pleasure, to be in this week’s Backstage, a publication that is so useful to actors. I hope I inspire other actors who are looking for work to forge ahead and make their own things. Never wait for permission!

My favorite quote from this article:

“Take a risk and do something that you haven’t seen before and tell a story that other people aren’t telling,” she advises. “We’ve seen six friends who live in New York. Tell something that’s really unique about you. It might not appeal to everyone, it might not get a TV deal tomorrow, but at least you’re going to find a voice.”
