Wow! Her character really evolved from the casting call. The hair, sexuality, and even name were all changed. I wonder if Jamie's talent influenced that or if it was more of a natural creative change. Like how Imogen was supposed to be...well, what Esme is.

I do think they tailor the character a bit to fit the actors, but often that's after they're already on the show, with Imogen being a good example. That this character changed so much from that casting call is pretty amazing.

The cast is supporting #BellLetsTalk today. Awesome and many great tweets but I especially liked this one from Jamie:



Ray Ablack tweeted this video by a friend of his and I recommend it as a follow up.

I'm wondering what her interaction will be with characters beyond Hunter and his Newbies? The Newbies now have to deal with the fallout from what they did. I hope that's not completely dropped just so they can concentrate on Hunter.

kaleidocat

Yeah, I worry for them. They felt isolated before. I'm into seeing how everyone forgives each other. It could kinda be like what Rick's happy ending could have been.



Hmm...Yael outside of Hunter. She could always take a woodworking class.

JustMe2000

Yeah, that could work.

If you want to go back and see baby Jamie, you can check the first episode of Wingin' It, which starred a couple of dudes you might recognize.

A couple of recent IG pictures. I can't help but think we'll be seeing her real hair when (not if) a new batch of episodes is filmed.



At least my real hair grew considering the rest of me never does




Can't help thinkin about this little one.. I still can't figure out who didn't want to let go of each other's hand first, me or him (it was most definitely me)

I still can't get over how different she looks with the wig! Sometimes I actually get her confused with Chelsea for a second.

Thanks for the interview. I'm hopeful we do see more of her religion and culture explored.

I gotta admit that when I read
my brain replayed this scene. I don't know about that, Jamie. No, I would agree with that description of Yael.

Is that Cam's greenhouse? Super creepy if it is since Hunter is intentionally hurting himself much like Cam did.

Thanks to a little blurb on Kary's blog, I found out that back in December Jamie and Spencer filmed a short film that she wrote called Reflection. Below is a picture of her character.

Hopefully we'll eventually get to see it.

She looks so cute here! Her red hair really pops.

JustMe2000

You look at them and you wonder how could they write and post such terrible things about Maya, and then you look at Hunter and you go...okay, I get it now.

I have been saying her last name wrong in my head. She's a little fighter. No kickboxing for me but a self-defense class is on my to-do list. Lovely home and family!

JustMe2000

We know one thing, Jamie's a good sport.

kaleidocat

Looks like things went well...



I gotta watch that video for Spencer's commentary. Who inspired that eye make-up?
