Whats with strikes and the giant inflatable rat??? There was what I think was some construction strike by me last year, and they had the same thing. Took me a while to realize from a far that it was a rat, I thought it was like some giant mole.
So how does a hottie, who is also a smarttie, impossibly (while achieving the perfect trifecta of sexy, saucy, and sweet) remain isolated to TVSquad.com.
Is it the fear of having to dodge those plummeting palm fronds plaguing L.A., or are there more pertinent justifications?
It's easy to imagine that soon enough Brig will have moved on to bigger, if not better things.
Willing to give us, the early adopters, any hints?
Whoa, whoa, whoa. That seemed like a Jerry Seinfeld burn. I was home from school this weekend and my folks really wanted us to see Bee Movie as a family, so we did, and it was pretty funny.
But, just wondering where you heard this though. On Thursday's Daily Show, a mere couple days ago, Seinfeld mentioned that he wants to do one final scene with the gang, post-prison. Although that's not an episode, so those two things might not conflict.
First of all, Brigitte, you looked amazing today in your fall sweater and I agree that you're too good and gorgeous to be limited to TV Squad. Secondly, Chris - Bee Movie was lame. It was Seinfeld-lite and who needs that? And, in the interview I saw, Jerry said that he was thinking of doing a new episode to go along with the final season on DVD but he was too busy working on Bee Movie and now it's too late and there just isn't a reason to motivate him to do it. It's ain't like he needs the money.
“The world needs more of you!” When I say that, it’s usually a testament to your blogging skills, but tonight I’m saying it because 99% of the cookie cutter ladies here don’t know to dress themselves!
The grey (spelled the Old English way) sweater is indicative of your good taste (I secretly liked the wife beater)! You always bring a slightly different look to the table (especially the hair) and this is appreciated. Enough about your visual mastery…
Brigitte, what perfume do you wear if you where one at all? Do you mix it up like your hair or have you found a signature scent?
A question was asked to Jerry Seinfeld on a AOL interview about his new Bee's movie by a fan why we have not seen much of him since Seinfeld went off the air until now. He said.. I'm tired I'm old and rich! hope we all can say that one day.
Is Penrod dead? Wait. You don't have to answer that question. Brig, I understand if you don't feel like talking about it. I'll always remember him as the great vermilion trend setter that he was... Though Penrod is gone, I wear a hat that was inspired by his famous intro hat. This facet of his being, his hat meme*, lives on...
I still tear up when I think of airplane time.

I'm not surprised Sabrina and Mark are together. Though I admit I did not have the keen perceptive sense of Brigitte's to confidently predict that.
Everytime I watch DWTS and see them train, I often wonder how they could NOT fall for each other.
Are Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff still together?
I've always liked Tina Fey. I have a thing for witty and cute brunettes, you see. And I think it's cool she actually showed her support by joining in on the protest. Same for Jon Stewart who is personally paying for his writers' salaries for two weeks.
brigitte you can't take credit for calling that dancing with the stars hook up. That's like taking credit for predicting the spice girls world tour will bomb or that Kensei was going to end up being Adam Monroe on heroes. It's totally obvious that that stuff was going to happen so no taking credit for it.
I heard on the Mark & Brian Show that Jerry Seinfeld on the Larry King interview didn't go too well. Ruffled Jerry's feathers. I'm glad Brigitte is not on strike. You rock!! Also heard George Clooney & Fabio had some heated words, but no blows. Everybody's stressed.....Not me.....Brig is saving the day.
There's another reason why a Seinfeld reunion wouldn't work... and why a reunion for a LOT of sitcoms today wouldn't work: Namely, neither the characters nor their situations engender the kind of fondness in an audience which would later equate to any measure of marketable nostalgia.

Well, thank goodness that Brigitte won't go on strike. Good call on your prediction for the Dancing with the Stars show.

Brigette,
How can you say you will be back tomorrow when all of your writers will be on strike? Who will write you daily witty repartee?

Why on earth are you asking Brigitte about what perfume she uses? Your computer system isn't equipped with smellavision, is it?
Brigitte - - wait - - Penrod is dead? Who dunnit?
