oh can some one upload jo and thores part of the live stream from yesterday to youtube? everytime I try to play the vid my computer freezes up:( In the spoiler thread, four posts from the bottom of the current last but one page[/url], I summarized the Chrolli/Rob part of Jo's chat with Hal. Thore didn't talk about Chrolli/Christian...except to say he was 'one part of Chrolli'.

Last post of GOOL pictures for me. The brunch was wonderful, Mustang Harry's is a really nice restaurant and they made some EXCELLENT scrambled eggs - I was even able to put peanut butter on my bagel, something you don't really see anywhere. The pictures this day are pretty light, it was only a couple of hours long and the layout of the second floor of Harry's was a U-shape so we had Jo and Thore on our side and I saw Igor, Dennis, and Felix in the buffet line but didn't go over to their side to snap any pics. But it was more intimate, and I liked that. Ok pics, things to be on the lookout for. 1. Jo's face when he was forced to wear a scarf ;D 2. Jo holding someone's child 3. Meg, who won Christian's shirt 4. There are some gratuitous shots (I plead guilty by reason of insanity) 6. Jo and Thore posing with the fans 7. What happend to 5??? -- Just kidding!! 8. Jo smiling, Thore smiling, Thore pointing a finger at the buzzing knat taking pictures of them (moi) 9. Hotness, known as Jo and Thore Some spoilers too, the word is that next years event will be held in Los Angeles. I asked Jo and the guy who is in charge of the video blog if they'd do a blog in English and the guy told me that they are forbidden to by law, that they are on a public spectrum and by law the company has to make content in German, and they only got a special dispensation to subtitle them in English to stop the blogs from being stolen and subtitled on YouTube. Also, they are filming scenes for the blog here in NYC that should be up in a few months Ok, I've talked to much - it was really a blast and I met so many nice people in addition to just being able to be in the same room, photograph and have a few words with the actors themselves. I can't thank Shirley and her crew enough for organizing this event, and I'll remember it until the day that I die. Enjoy!! www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2422&id=100000924065222&l=f3029e93a2FTLNewsFeed

JO and I commiserated at length re: the scarves.
he hates em, probably more than we do. but he is at the mercy of the costume designer and he has to wear what he's told. Interestingly enough, the haircut was also mandated by the production team.

Danke, thunderkat. So pleased that both you and everyone else seems to have had SUCH a fab time in NYC with Jo and Thore. JO and I commiserated at length re: the scarves Well, we know he's a guy of exceptional taste, if nowt else! Hmm. Did he say why? Was it to give his character a 'harder' feel, to coincide with his business 'drive' and its 'consequences', etc? Did he say when he might be able to start really growing it out again?

Journalism fail by me, i thought of asking a follow up question but he was saying he negotiated to keep his stubble...which, by the way, is soft like velvet, by saying he would ONLY cut his hair if they didn't make him shave anymore. then i started looking at his stubble which led to looking at his lips and someone else grabbed him while I drooled dazedly...

Makes sense, from his RL photos Jo seems to actually have a good fashion sense! ;D My proxy went to sleep before I got home so I don't know how much fun you guys had, but from the pics I've seen I know you've been running around all over the place and the boys were polarising around you! Brava, thunderkat! ;D

Brava, thunderkat! ;D I wouldn't call it polarisation...I'd call it affixing myself to them like a leach. I'm actually anxious to see how long a break they're going to end up taking b/c of this event and how exactly it will be reflected in the show, the boys are officially on vaycay now. Gotta do some reverse detective work re:the spoiler thread etc to see if and when we'll see their break from filming.

Romina Becks has already said she's off to, I believe, Greece for Easter...so she's having a filming break, too (and as the waitress in NL, I imagine she's needed a lot on set because of that)...

Did you get anything resembling a Chrolli 'teaser', thunderkat, that you could then stick in the spoiler thread? We've only got the vlogs stuff (don't yet know if what's to come for Chrolli was mentioned in the Q&A panels) and what Jo said in that livestream show...

Hi All. Apologies to those who were hoping for more frequent updates during the weekend. You all knew it was going to be a blast and in reality it was a 72 hour party! When we weren't trying to talk to Jo and Thore, we were partying. I don't know that any of us got more than 3 or 4 hours of sleep a night. You probably won't get more updates until later this week since some, like me, are recovering and others are traveling home.
Ok, where to begin. I last wrote a quick update after the VL pre-party so.... Friday night... Jo and Thore arrive about 8ish, I think, as we were all too busy chatting and drinking (an often repeated activity) and this incredibly weird, nervous hush falls over the group. We're not really clapping because I don't think it truly sinks in for the first few minutes that they are HERE. Like, here in the room. Like, here we've been waiting so long and the time has come. Like, here the moment has arrived and we're speechless. Like, here we want to cheer and scream but we sense Jo and Thore are nervous and, like two deer in the forest, we're afraid to scare them away because they're....well, here, with us. In person. Up close. In the same room. Let me pause and repeat. We're in the SAME room. Think I made my point.
If anyone is wondering, and I know you are, they are BEYOND beautiful. Sometimes less attractive actors can look good on camera. This is not Jo and Thore. We spent a lot of time in pleasant discussion of their physical attributes. The consensus is they are simply stunning. Separately, yes, but when standing together it simply short circuits the mind. Jo's eyes, his cheek bones and jaw. Thore's smile, his dimples and raw magnitisim. W-O-W.
Jo and Thore were lovely hosts. They mingled with the crowd. Gave out hugs. Posed for pics. Listened to stories. Incredibly gracious and sweet. Jo is a bit more extraverted. He's more comfortable in a large crowd. Thore is a bit more introverted, a bit more quiet in a very sweet way but his dimples were on display the whole night.
There's certainly more to the fan story Friday night. That is we spent many hours together talking and dancing and having fun while Jo and Thore did their hosting duties among many people. That, however, is not a discussion for this thread but I will say there is clearly one thing that struck me about so many of the Chrolli fans I had the pleasure of spending the weekend with. They are a sweet, warm-hearted, caring, fun and funny group of people. If we ever get the opportunity to get together again I'm the first to buy my ticket.
I'm still processing all that's happened. There was just so much it's impossible to write it all down. I've got to get back to real life but will definitely try to post more stories and personal reflections in the next few days.

Thank you for organizing this event. Quite an undertaking. And all the commentary, pictures, videos and cards. Beyond nice of you. And fun for those of us at home.
I hope our actors have a moment to take in NYC. I believe Jo said he had never been. See what's happening on Broadway and Off. Say hello to Times Square. Have a drink in Sardi's. But they must be exhausted. I believe the weather there is damp and chilly.
Very proud of our German actors. All of them say hello and answer questions in English, not their native language. Quite a showing I would say. And those smiles....
