My So-Called Life Cast at the Paley Center

[missdepechegurl]

This show was SO ahead of it's time. What a masterpiece this series was, pure genius..

[CreeepitReal]

I thought Patty was annoying as hell.

[laurenemque]

@CreeepitReal I agree! She was a twit. And she seemed obsessed with Angela all twe while ignoring Danielle!

[mooky9669]

how long after the show ended was this??

[basamente]

I personally think A.J. was absolutely brilliant as rayanne. This interview, and how apparently different she is as a person from Rayanne, just shows me how tremendous her acting ability really is.

[ADenny12]

A.J. Langer is a fabulous actress.  She now is an English 'Lady' (having married a 'Lord') and she is an advocate for the funding of fibromyalgia treatments as she herself suffers from it..

[Aspenfash899]

i was 6 when this came on tv im watching it now i just got the dvd in the mail im so hooked im mad they cancelled it but claire danes didnt want to continue on with the show so what can you do =/

[Aspenfash899]

@xillfatedlovex claire danes didnt want to do it anymore they would of kept it going she was starring in that romeo & juliet movie with leo dicaprio as well

[hole1991]

I got this show on DVD after hearing so many wonderful things about it. And it REALLY DIDN'T DISAPPOINT! Wonderful storylines, compelling characters all played brilliantly. And what I liked the most (something which I had heard before getting it) was even if you didn't sympathise with Angela all the time, you could sympathise with the parents, or Sharon, or Brian, or Rickie, etc. I recommend this to everyone and anyone.

[irhjma30000]

1) I wish Jared was there!!!

2) Ricky is quite cute, I wish he wasn't gay!

3) AJ Langer is SO pretty and cute in real life!

[honzanoel]

What an actress A J was, would of been nice to see still on the screen, just looking how different she is from her character shows her how much depth she has as an actress. My word did I have a crush on her back then lol.

[AthenaOnyx]

@msclfan02, I was going to write that! Langer nailed that character. Her portrayal was flawless never once did I stop believing the acting. That has to be especially hard for such a character that could so easily be overdone.

[HikkiRokks]

Where's Jared in all this?!...

And where did you get this?!...

Its AMAZING!!!!

=)

[trent8002003]

Bess Armstrong looks absolutely fantastic. Hardly aged at all from her days on*Lace* as Judy. Seems to have held up much better than Brooke Adams (Pagan).

[ifyouwishit]

I adore Wilson Cruz, he is so amazing.

[MangaKairi4lyf]

wooow rayanne's so pretty!!

[littlefurballs]

Can you imagine what TV would be like if MSCL continued on for many seasons?!! I think about future episodes, plotlines, and characters. It's like someone great died when they announced that this show was going to be cancelled!! :(

[Chokula99]

@littlefurballs very True,TV wasn't very good at those days,not that now i is but,this show used to stand up by itself.

[hole1991]

@littlefurballs

Yes, but, it could be argued that, as the series progressed, it could've managed to get worse, if that was possible. I am okay with letting a series which I like be nipped in the bud, on the off chance I won't like it as much.

Also (if you don't like any of the following, then sorry because there is no consollation), but MSCL still does live on, people still love and are influenced by it; we wouldn't have Buffy without MSCL, we wouldn't have Juno without it.

[WhiteLily23]

Where is Jared Leto in this interview??? Why he wasn´t there??

[statman88]

You know you can really tell these people cared deeply about the characters that they played on this show. I can't believe it was cancelled so early.

[miminata798]

@statman88 It's because of Claire Danes. She didn't want to do another all over season again

[SUPERTOUCH777]

I dated AJ for a short time some years ago,.. she's very cool.. It's a shame we lost touch thru the years.

MP Surf Camp

[SouthOx]

@SUPERTOUCH777 really? how did you screw that relationship up?

[SUPERTOUCH777]

Miles between us screwd it up buddy.. she's an extremely nice/good person.. awesome memories :)

[SouthOx]

@SUPERTOUCH777 dude I would have lived in the gutter in front of her house if I had to. I liked her ever since I was a kid when I saw her in P.U.T.S : )

[esiotrot17]

@SUPERTOUCH777 wow that woulda been cool if it'd worked, right? :)

[Tahmina5]

This tv show reminds me of my teenage years.. I could so relate to it.. its kind of a diary..

[kylas124]

I grew up and got to watch this show in my teens and a time in my life when i needed it, it was horrible when it was canceled because it was soooo good.

[hotelalbion]

There has to be some sort of conspiracy theory..this show should never have been cancelled...!

[bryanrockstar]

that was Scarlett Johason in 'Lost in Translation'.

[2cruiz4vr]

@bryanrockstar Yes. I'm sorry, I typed in the wrong film.

[animaze86]

I'm sorry but at what point exactly is Claire Danes in the film "Lost in Translation"?

[2cruiz4vr]

@animaze86 I meant to say she was great in 'The Rainmaker'. I deleted my comment and reposted it to correct my mistake. Thank you for pointing it out.

[skiper2002]

And Thanks for posting this ! Really appreciated.

[skiper2002]

Yeah ! The Zit is the best episode of the best show ever !

[Smil3yJok3r]

I LOVE RICKIE! he is sooooooo sweet...

[syckindahead]

AJ seems moved...that's neat.

[daughter189]

Thanks for posting this, unfortunately it isn't on the UK box set. :)

[glitchflame]

Wilson was and still is sooo CUTE!

[indiebird12]

Clair danes and a.j langer are soooo HOT!! haha

[shinjiikarir]

claire daines is a bitch.. this is the only good thing she made in her life and turned down season 2... fuck her

[gen5629]

I couldn't have said it better myself. lol my dislike of claire danes runs deep... this never should have been a one season show!

[Aspenfash899]

@shinjiikarir lmao i bet the cast was like fuck we are out of work now!

[MsMercury]

I was 26 when the show was on tv and I loved it. Now that i'm 40, I can really relate to this episode and what Patty was going thru.

[msclfan02]

Very interesting to hear that AJ Langer is not at all like her character. And how she dealt with Rayanne's changing world! Thank you for uploading this--where'd you get it?

[neveranormalgirl]

It's from the DVD extras. ;)

[LetoLover2612]

@neveranormalgirl i don't have this on any of the DVD's :/

[MsMercury]

@neveranormalgirl I have the BMG set that came out then got discontinued and it doesn't have any extras. Thanks for posting this.

[MsMercury]

Bess was so right about the parallel between being 40 and being 15.

[VNVgirl]

@neveranormalgirl TY i will buy the dvds in hope i can get the cast to sign them one day! by the way - netflix has mscl =) YES! to me, people who love this show, are almost always a perfect friend to have. =) usually kind and warm and well rounded - yet hurt .. and caring. hugs to everyone no matter what. i love that.

[GinieV]
