« on: May 28, 2007, 01:12:33 AM »
Has anyone heard about Mary-Kate Olsen taking a new role in a TV series without her sister?  Here's the link.

Maybe shes sneaking her sister into the show so they can pull a switching roles "Mary Kate Ashley Olsen" stunt. j/k...good luck to MK without ashley starring with her.

Doesn't sound like the kind of show I would enjoy.

Another thing. I've never been very good at telling the olsen twins apart, and that's not just when they were on FH.

No, I don't think I'll ever spend my time watching that show either.  I do find it interesting that she's doing it alone without her sister.  We've basically only seen them do work together until now.

Also, the Olsen twins don't seem to be aging very well. They don't look over the hill yet, but they definitely look older than their 20 years. I shudder to think what they will look like in 10 or 20 years. Being chain-smokers doesn't help, either.

I used to be such a huge fan of them. But not anymore. It just seems like everything went down the tubes for them. They used to be such pretty and happy girls, but everything went bad. I mean come on, it looks like they haven't even brushed their hair in months. But anyway, I'm not surprised Mary-Kate is going solo, I know they've been trying to separate from each other to get rid of the whole twin image. I'm sure it's not going to be easy, they've been associated with each other for years. And no, the show doesn't sound like something I'd enjoy. It looks like she's trying to get away from the kids and go for more adult fans.

Mary Kate has always been the more charismatic one of the two which explains why she would be first to go solo. I might watch it not for Mary Kate Olsen though, mainly because it seems intersting. I hate that the smoke, if they're multi billionares wouldn't they want to live as long as possible to enjoy it.
I'm back

I can't tell them apart either leftturn, even though they have different color hair I have no idea which one's which

I used to love their movies (when they were little) but now I don't like the twins anymore  :P

Seems nearly impossible when I can't even tell which one is which.  But good for Mary-Kate for going for something else.

I also find they seem like a mess now though.  Seems like one problem after another.

I saw one of their movies on tV from when they were about 6 or 7, and they were adorable. I eve sort of like the two tv shows they've done together since FH, those being Two of a Kind and So Little time.

Now though, I don't find the Olsen twins the least bit attractive.

I have their halloween movie from around the time season 6 or 7 was going on FH (and I actually liked that one), and some random 20 minute video of their mystery show that is over 10 years old (not very good).  I saw a look at their one TV show once, but that's pretty much it, lol.  I wasn't overly interested in their work at any time really.

I always loved It Takes Two and the Wild Wild West one, I don't remember any others....To Grandmother's House We Go was OK.....and yeah their other two TV shows weren't bad, like leftturn said

I don't even think their TV shows - NOT counting FH - lasted very long. Maybe only 1 or 2 seasons and thats it. Wonder why that ever was.

Yeah, they only lasted one or two years.  Their credentials got them in the door, but I guess those shows weren't overly successful?  I'm not really sure, but I'd imagine them being longer if they had been.

Maybe viewers weren't used to seeing the Olsen Twins not in FH anymore so they considered "So Little Time" and "Two of a Kind" to be sucky shows. I dunno just a thought I had.
