This week, Eliot, Kelly, Cole, and Nick were joined by actress and comedian Elaine Carroll, the brains behind the mammoth web series Very Mary Kate.Skyping in for the weekly tl;dr quiz wasn't just another usual contestant, but Jonathan Mann, whose real-life job requires that he make a new video every day (over 700!), one of which includes a new musical introduction for the tl;dr quiz!
Elaine Carroll talked to us about Very Mary Kate, which is a fictional, hilarious web series that follows the inner life of Mary Kate Olsen (with occassional cameos by Ashley, naturally). A gifted actress, Elaine spilled the beans on how she came up with the idea in the first place and how she's executed so many fantastic episodes (in between appearing on Mad Men -- YES, THAT WAS HER!)
