Anxiety said:

She took it in stride. Very much the pro. I LMAO at her face initially when the reporter said 'Thanks for being here' TWICE!

..

For misuse of exclamation points.

no. holly hunter did show her boob in a movie called "crash" (not the racial one, but the other movie called "crash"), only she was crawling out of a car wreck and trying to arouse the guy in the car she hit by wiggling her boob at him. i don't think that wound up in playboy.

About a million more people know Merry Miller this Tuesday morning, than knew her last Tuesday. Miller is the producer/booker whose live interview on ABCNewsNow with actress Holly Hunter last week, has been viewed more than a million times on sites including YouTube.

Miller is said to be "a little concerned about her reputation" following the segment. TVNewser got the back story on what happened:

According to Jessica Stedman-Guff, Executive Producer of ABCNewsNow, Miller was asked to "come in and train." She read through the teleprompter, took some tapes home, then the Holly Hunter interview came along. Stedman-Guff says it "was painful" from the beginning. "The IFB malfunctioned" but since it was live, Miller "kept going, gamely." (ABC reshot the ending of the interview where Miller gave out the wrong date for the premiere of Hunter's show, and said NBC News, instead of ABC News.)

Named one of Crain's 40 under 40 for 2007, Merry Miller worked as the late Joel Siegel's booker. Stedman-Guff says one of Siegel's wishes was for ABC to give Miller a shot, on air. Miller does not work for the network, she's "never taken a dime from ABC News," but Siegel "felt she'd be good on camera."

Will she be on air again? Stedman-Guff, who has only been on the job for a month, says, perhaps, if it's done on tape, but not live. "I was brought on to make a name for our little, fledgling, broadband cable network." "It's a little sad that we've gotten so much publicity (for something) that is not our best work


poor thing
yeah holly was a pro.

she's an academy award winner goof

Anxiety said:

Oh.

Lord Have Mercy. I had to click that shit off after the second "Thanks so much for joining us". I can't do it.

I LOVE HOLLY HUNTER

and saving grace

Anxiety said:

That movie was so twisted. I really really loved it and really really hated it.

that was painful

Don't they audition their hosts anymore?


I'd still do her though.

Welcoming someone twice is not a malfunction in any equipment but the brain.

That poor thing I hope she has someone to make sure she makes it through each day

Ok....I think I need to change my answer on this thread:

I am so not a drunk and I do not talk funny.

I was only basing it on looks...my bad.

That was terrible. Though I think Holly was also just throwing stuff out there as well. Never really mentioned what the show was about.

ArielB said:

but she's not a tv person lol... this was a one off "give her a chance" thing
and she bombed mr. "with a click of the mouse now there are three"

emm said:

That's exactly my point. giving her a chance without making sure she can actually do it, by auditioning and preparing her. I would've probably done the same thing, but that's why I'm NOT doing live interviews on TV.

ArielB said:

yeah it wasn't too smart
and you were adorable by the way

emm said:

It made you horny, didn't it?
