Do you follow a certain actor/writer/producer?

There is an actress named Busy Phillips. She briefly had her own “talk show”, which I caught because it was a hole in the wall show that was different in the best way. I found out she’s in a new show premiering next month. Now, I saw a commercial, and the show looked interesting, certainly. However, what cemented me giving it a chance was that Busy Phillips was in it. I’ll give her work a try. Is there a writer, actor, producer, or director, you’ll almost automatically give a chance to the work because they had something to do with it?

She has been good in everything she has ever been in. Especially Cougar Town. You watched that didn't you?

@AmbiePam I need to watch cougar town again. Did you ever watch Suburgatory? It had Alan Tudyk in it.

Okay, I guess I've been living under a rock, because I have never heard of Busy Phillips.

Oh, you’re normal, Stacey. Busy Phillips is not well known.

I really don't have any favorite, but since we have Roku, I like the Hallmark movie channel and Lifetime movies.

Do you have a favorite Hallmark actress like Lacey Chabert?

Can't help myself wondering if her parents named her Busy or if it's a nickname.

It’s a childhood nickname. Her name is Elizabeth.

I'm more that way with bands. I've been known to buy a new band unheard just because a guitarist I like plays on two songs.

Oh, really? All it takes is one guitarist? That’s cool.

@AmbiePam - Or bassist, or drummer, but yes, I've done that multiple times. I've found some good stuff doing that.

Oh I remember her talk show, it really was different in a good way. That's cool she got you curious enough to check out the new show. For me it's like that with certain directors, if I see their name attached I'm already interested before I even know what it's about.

You saw it too? Cool! She was the the first place I saw Lizzo, and she got her best friend, who was an Oscar winner to appear several times. On a hole in the wall show buried on a cable network. It was a shame it didn’t last.
