While acting is our starlet's dream, it isn't paying the bills (yet!). So, as you may have noticed, Carol has been working a number of other odd-jobs to add some black to the books. Carol is on the way to setting a record for the most W2's in a single tax-year!
That said, if you are in Chicago this Friday, be sure to stop and see Carol on Michigan Ave., between 10am and 3:30pm, where she will be handing out samples of an intriguing new General Mills / Curves product.
On Saturday, you can visit Carol in Elk Grove again. This time she will be promoting iWireless, a pay-as-you-go wireless provider, at Shop4Less on Meacham Rd.
Next week, Carol will be delivering flowers for Fresh & Silk Flowers, in Carol Stream on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Carol has been making good use of her Blazer and delivering for Fresh & Silk on major holidays for the past couple years. If you have any friends or family in the Bartlett, Bloomingdale, Carol Stream, West Chicago, Hanover Park, Schaumburg, Streamwood, Wheaton, or Winfield areas, why not order them some flowers for delivery on 10/01, 10/03 or 10/04 next week? Not only will the recipient be surprised by your thoughtful gift, but they will also be able to say that they met Carol Townsend, of stage, small and big screen fame!
All of this, while rehearsing for The Crucible and Hellcab on the remaining days! Sleep is over-rated.

More ER
Carol is downtown today near Water Tower Place, working on another episode of ER. No details yet on what episode this might be. Stay tuned for details...
UPDATE: This was only short scene featuring Moretti (Stanley Tucci) and some woman getting into a taxi. Carol is in the background sporting pale green capri pants and a Hawaiian floral top.

Carol Returns to the ER
Breaking news... tomorrow, Carol will be working on an episode of ER that will be filming at Wrigley Field. The episode is scheduled to air on October 18th, according to this article, and will feature former Florida Marlin, Derek Lee (for you sports fans). This will mark Carol's fourth appearance on ER (three prior appearances in season 13 can be found here, here, and here), and she will once again be working with John Stamos. More details to follow after the shoot.
UPDATE: Carol reports that there were several shots that might yield Carol-spotting. In two shots, you just might see a smear of color (cream colored pants and blue denim jean jacket) in the background that is vaguely Carol-shaped: one long shot of the bleachers where Carol is across the field from her co-star John, and one where she is behind John in the stands near the third-base line. In a third shot, outside of Wrigley Field, we may be treated to a shot of Carol's butt as we see her walk in front of John while he stands and looks at the park. I can hardly wait!! Set your Tivo for October 18th!

Looking for Some Real Talent?
Then look no further! Carol is now listed with Real Talent, Inc., which is used by advertisers for casting people for magazine ads, corporate brochures, catalogs, and web advertising. Need someone to model that new iPod? Maybe a new face for your corporate capabilities presentation? Carol can do it all! You can find her photos on this page, or direct links to her photos here and here.
Your one-stop destination to beautiful hair.
If you didn't visit the Wal-Mart in DeKalb or Elk Grove Village this week, you have missed your chance to have beautiful hair in only 5 days. I'm sorry, but someone had to say it. Fortunately, Carol had a record turnout, and she helped countless women and men with their hair issues.
"It even smells beautiful!", commented one happy customer.
Today is your last chance to see Carol live and in person at the DeKalb Wal-Mart! If you're in the market for some chips and salsa or parsley dip, you can't pass up this chance to pickup a free sample of Knorr Pico de Gallo and Creamy Parsley Dip. Carol made it herself, and you know what a culinary master she is!

Chicago Overcoat
Greetings Fans!
Carol's busy schedule (rehearsals for two plays, marketing at Wal-Mart), continues to get busier as she was just cast in the gangster indie film, Chicago Overcoat!
"The film takes a chilling look into what remains of the most powerful organized crime syndicate in the second half of the twentieth century. They were known as the 'The Outfit' and controlled the city of Chicago. Their most deadly hit man, the notorious 'Flower Man' Lou Marazano (Frank Vincent) killed several high profile officials without leaving a trace of evidence. Years later he is being pursued by the relentless but terribly flawed Detective Ralph Maloney (Joe Mantegna). Lou takes on one last job for the Outfit but struggles with old age, a splintered family, and a lifetime of regret. This is his story."
The film stars Frank Vincent and Joe Mantegna-- although, Joe is not yet mentioned in the IMDB listing, but is referenced here.
No details yet on what part Carol will have, but filming is tomorrow. Unfortunately, the part is unpaid; however, it reportedly includes screen and IMDB credit! We may be seeing our starlet's name on the big screen!
UPDATE: Carol appeared in two scenes. In one, she was a business woman entering a building as they arrested Joe Barbone. In the second, she was a pedestrian in the background at a press conference-- or as Carol prefers to call it, "attractive (young) woman hailing cab." This was the first shooting for the movie, but they will be filming throughout October and November, so Carol may be called back for additional work (if she can squeeze it in, amidst her busy rehearsal and performance schedule).

Everything is better with Dip!
Greetings fans!
Carol continues to expand her activities in the direct marketing area, with yet another personal appearance. As previously mentioned, Carol will be appearing at Wal-Mart in DeKalb on 9/12 to promote Dove Hair Products; and now she will be making a return appearance on 9/15, this time to promote Knorr Pico de Gallo and Creamy Parsley Dip! Why DeKalb, you may be wondering? The location and timing work out well with her rehearsal schedule for The Crucible. After all, the supplemental income will help offset the cost of gas!
If you're a fan of dip-- and after all, who isn't? -- stop by, say Hi, and get a free sample!

Carol reflects on her stage debut
Many fans will recall Carol's stage debut (Movin' Right Along), just one year ago this week. My, how time flies! While Carol is not participating in this year's Comedy Revue, she was quoted in a press release by Soapbox Theatre Company, reflecting on her debut stage performance:
Carol Townsend, a cast member from last year’s revue, remembers her experience fondly, describing the show as a modern-day Carol Burnett Show. “I remember, as a kid, absolutely LOVING the Carol Burnett Show – the comedy sketches, the music, just good clean fun. Movin’ Right Along gave me a chance to be in the Carol Burnett show. Granted, a somewhat raunchier, not quite as clean, 21st century type of Carol Burnett show, but the same concept of comedy and music. I had a wonderful time and met some wonderful people!”

More Dove Love... at Wal-Mart!
Hello fans,
In a rather bizarre coincidence, Carol will be working on another marketing campaign, this time for Dove hair products. Carol will be live and in-person on 9/12 at the Wal-mart Supercenter in DeKalb, and on 9/13 at the Wal-mart on Meacham Rd. in Elk Grove Village. No details yet on exactly what she will be doing, but you can bet it will be exciting and entertaining! I'm sure if you want to stop by and have your picture taken or get an autograph, Carol would welcome the visit.

No Carol News Here
Hi all,
This post does not involve Carol at all, (except for the fact that none of the following would be happening if not for Carol), but I thought I would post a little somewhat unrelated news.
Since we worked together on Fred Claus in January, Joan Philo casting has my name and casting photo. So, last week I got a call asking if I could be available for an upcoming scene in Rory's First Kiss! I have no intention or desire to become a regular background actor (I'll leave that to Carol)-- but since this is Ba-- er... Rory's First Kiss-- and I get a costume and everything-- how could I refuse?!
So, this past weekend, I went downtown for my costume fitting, and got decked out in GCPD's finest gear (turtleneck, uniform shirt, pants, boots, and hat--I wonder if we'll get guns, badges, and riot gear on the night of the shoot?) As I was leaving the fitting, some guy asks me, "What part are you?" I told him I was a policeman, and he says. "Turn around." I do so, and he says "Let me trim you up a little." OK, sure. So, I sit down, and he whips out the clippers, to "trim me up a little" (my hair, that is).
To the left is me (and Carol, sporting her RFK hairstyle and dress) before. Long story short (as my hair), I'm now sporting the "cop's haircut" (see below). I had been toying with the idea of going with a shorter style, so this is an interesting way to try it out. I have to say, I like the reduced maintenance!
My call time is this Wednesday at 10:00pm, possibly continuing Thursday night. So, I got a free haircut, and a couple of sleepless nights where I get to play a policeman! As did Carol when she worked a scene for RFK last month, I had to sign an NDA. So, I won't be able to disclose any details. No spoilers here!

Witless Protection
Greetings Fans!
Carol adds another movie to her body of work, as she is working on an "elegant party scene" for Witless Protection, shooting in Vernon Hills tonight. WP's cast includes Peter Stormare, who you may recall from Carol's time on Prison Break (although they never shared the screen).
In addition, Carol will be extending her acting range by playing a 66 year-old woman in a short film called We All Die Alone Together. Carol wonders if this is how Meryl Streep got her start? I can only assume that there will be lots of hair and make-up work involved for that!

No Spoilers Here
Carol is just starting her third and last day (knight) of filming for Rory's First Kiss. Her call time each day has been at 4:00pm, and they have been working through to 5:00 or 6:00am. Unfortunately, the extreme schedule is taking its toll, and Carol has been fighting off a cold-- but, the show must go on! Carol was rather pleased with how the hair & make-up folks have been doing her hair-- some sort of glamor up-do, with the front swept off to the side. She plans to try to reproduce the look for an upcoming wedding next weekend.
Unfortunately, Carol was required to sign a confidentiality agreement in order to work on RFK, so in order to avoid any legal wrangling, we will have to tread carefully. As previously reported (prior to the signing of any agreements), this was supposedly a formal party scene.
[details CENSORED to avoid legal troubles]
Stay tuned, bat-fans, for more juicy details, in the next exciting post!

Rory's First Kiss Update
Hello Fans,
Carol's scene in Rory's First Kiss shoots this weekend. Different from most other background work Carol has done, RFK required a wardrobe session to verify the outfit that Carol will be wearing. After the wardrobe folks approved, they issued a claim number and kept the outfit. This saves on preparation, since they don't have to re-check everyone on the days of the shoot-- they have pre-approved all the outfits, and they keep them on-site, so they know you'll be wearing the same thing.
In related news, I will also be working on a different scene for RFK! Since Carol and I worked together on Fred Claus, Joan Philo Casting has my photo and contact info. Apparently, they need lots of extras for RFK, so they asked if I could work a two-day shoot on June 30 - July 1. Why not?! So, I will be working a courtroom scene. They wanted me to come for a wardrobe check as well, but the dates did not work out for me, so I have been relegated to "bystander" instead of "attorney".
Unfortunately, Carol and I won't be working together on this one, as Carol is already scheduled for shooting an episode of Drama Queens Club that weekend. Stay tuned!

This Film Has Not Yet Been Named
Just a quick update... this week Carol is rehearsing and shooting a part in a small independent/student film at Columbia College. The film has not yet been named, but is sure to be a sleeper hit at Cannes and Sundance. Carol has also been busy auditioning for several other opportunities, so keep an eye on this page for future updates.

The Return of Hilo Hattie
Hello Fans!
As previously reported, this week, Carol was working at a house in Barrington, for a scene in The Return. Unfortunately, the weather was somewhat uncooperative, so although the scene in the movie is supposed to be in the heat of July, the nighttime temperatures were only in the 50-60s, and the second night was plagued by rain. As true fans will know, Carol has no tolerance for the cold, so although she was miserable and frozen, she toughed it out (barely!), and managed to survive the night!
This was a two-day nighttime shoot for an outdoor house party. Carol "Babs" was dressed in the festive Hilo Hattie dress that some might recall from our Hawaii vacation last year.
On the second night of shooting, they needed more couples on the dance floor, and Carol was selected. In several of the shots, Carol and her partner were dancing very close to the principal actors, and navigating the two steadicams that were roaming the floor. So, after two brutal, freezing, tiresome, frustrating nights of work, we may be rewarded by a glimpse of Carol in this scene in The Return. At least the dress should make her easy to spot!

It Ran In The Family
It Runs In The Family has run its course. Thanks to all of Carol's fans who were able to make the trek out to DeKalb to enjoy the show! And for those of you that weren't able, you'll have another chance for Carol's next show in October, with The Crucible.
What is Carol working on in the meantime? Today, Carol had an audition for a television commercial, as Wife #2. Wednesday and Thursday this week, Carol has been booked for more background work on The Return. This time, Carol will be appearing as her alter-ego "Babs", in a night-shoot house party scene at a house in Barrington. Friday, it is an audition for another commercial! It is only a matter of time before Carol dominates all media!

Neela!!!
If you watched ER's season finale, it was quite a shocker! Once again, Carol's (brief) appearance was in the final scene of the episode, at 42:34, for about 4 seconds. Carol was visible just before the explosion when Gates is working his way through the crowd towards Neela. In the screen shot above, she is wearing sunglasses, just to the right of Gates.In the first second or so, it appears as if Gates is pushing her out of the way (as reported earlier, Carol said that in one of the takes, John Stamos brushed past her), and in the last seconds, she is seen looking up towards the podium, listening intently to the speaker, and no doubt irritated that this guy is muscling his way through the crowd. (I got all that from the intense look on her face, didn't you?)
Since it is a difficult to realize the full emotional impact of Carol's performance in the 4 second clip above, I created the following slow-mo version. Enjoy!
Carol's legs may also be visible during the shots where Neela is getting trampled, but we're waiting for the forensic analysis of the recording before we make that call.
