Watch ME (and my mom) on TV.

Unknown

So back in July or August, my mom and I were in a made for TV movie on Alexander Hamilton's life. We had to film it in the 100 degree heat in humid Delaware in full 18th-century costume. Basically.

Anyway, apparently it's going to be on TV tomorrow night! It's called American Experience: Alexander Hamilton. It's going to be on PBS at 9 pm tomorrow EST, according to my mom. So I guess check your local PBS listings if you're elsewhere.

I'm only in the funeral procession scene (and it shouldn't be hard to find me; there were only about 15 of us, so they recorded us walking in front of a green screen and multiplied us into a crowd of thousands, HAHA). But you get to see my mom as a mourner, Hamilton's mistress, and a wench. On a barrel. In an alleyway.

Anyway. Go watch it. Tomorrow!

PS: You can go here to check listings.

Wow, jedi_grrlie, that is so cool!! I remember you saying your mom likes to dress and participate in re-inactements. So cool how those connections now pay off. Hey, the twins (mel and fel), me, and you can now all say we're tv goddess. Well, we've all had nifty bit-parts on tv. But yours is even cooler cause it's actual acting.


(Ha ha, forgot Electra. Must add her to the list, although her part wasn't on tv )

Well, all I had to do was walk around and look sad that Hamilton died....haha....

Sure, you show love for Hamilton, but not Martin van Buren. I'm gonna tell tonetoile on you!

tune1shade

No one does Martin Van Buren reenactments...

Katy, I'll def. tune in; that's amazing.

I'm a PBSphile so I'm extra excited.

The first boy who kissed me was a boy named Alexander Hamilton in the 1st grade (I can't make these things up). I thought it was gross. He had cooties.

That's because he's forgotten, duh. Also, he didn't live during a major war. People aren't interested unless they get to fake shoot each other.

jedi_grrlie

Also, when I said "tomorrow," I meant today, Monday. Because it was already Monday where I am when I posted that...

Just so like, no one's confused....

target35ghost

That's awesome Katy!!! I'd watch if it were on here... Sounds so cool.

It sounds like you found out on Mother's Day, what a great present.

If we're discussing TV goddesses, can we add me to the list, too? I was a contestant on a game show! I love it when the cool kids let me play with them...

HOLLY CRACKPOCKETS!!! Last night I was checking to see what would be on on PBS and saw the Hamilton thing, so I was gonna watch it anyways, then I log in later on and see your message, so now I'm just gonna be watching out for you lol, it's cool that you get to be on tv, I wish I was on tv but whatever maybe one day hahaha


I'll probably maybe record it just in case I miss your part

jedi_grrlie

I was a contestant on Wheel of Fortune, and am not furiously scheming to go on Millionaire, thanks to a discussion with mixtape.

Ahh! these are great - I love the one where you mom (I think) is cooling off in the kitchen by showing some leg. Classic. I spaced out and turned on the television too late last night, but I know it must have been great. (Raises pretend glass to the newest goddess)
