A Gift From Yvonne

Those who follow the site may remember the daughter of forum-goer radi8n who dressed up as Sarah Walker for Halloween.

baileyWell it turns out Chuck writer Ali Adler got word of this awesome costume and made a point of showing it to Yvonne Strahovski on the set of Chuck.

That alone would have been a major coup for little Bailey, but it only got better from there.

Yvonne was so impressed with the costume, that she mailed Bailey a special gift for her awesomeness.

It’s not like we needed more evidence to prove that Yvonne Strahovski is an amazing person, but I really love being able to post this kind of news.  Looks like that’s certainly a one-of-a-kind souvenir!

Yes, Yvonne Strahovski is beautiful.  And of course she’s an amazing actress.  But what really endears her to all of us is that under it all she’s a great person.

It’s small gestures like this that really endear Ms. Strahovski to her fans.  A special congratulations to Bailey for her awesome jacket!

New Interview, Old Commercial

I was able to get links out on Twitter a few days ago for both of these, but Yvonne has recently sat down with Televisionary for an interview about season 3 of Chuck.

In addition, someone found this Schick Quattro commercial which I assume is from Australia.  Yvonne doesn’t have a speaking role and is barely in the commercial at all, but it’s Yvonne Strahovski so I know you’ll watch it anyway.

Enjoy them both!

Also, if you don’t already follow us on Twitter then do so!  A lot of this sort of stuff gets there before I have time to post it on the main site… and some stuff never makes it to the main site at all.

Chuck Season Two DVD and Blu-ray Details

I don’t know about you, but I think A Real-Life Captain Awesome’s Tips for Being Awesome sounds pretty hilarious.

Also, don’t forget that Yvonne will be appearing (albeit in digital form) in Mass Effect 2, which will be hitting PC and Xbox 360 on January 26th. I think that’s her on the cover.

UPDATE: Reader Mike pointed out that if you zoom in on the Mass Effect 2 cover on Amazon’s site, you can clearly see that it is in fact Yvonne on the cover:

Carson Daly Screen Captures

Here are the screen captures for Yvonne Strahovski’s interview with Carson Daly on October 28, 2009.  The legendary interview where Yvonne gave a shout out to Strahotski.com specifically (can it be legendary in less than 24 hours?).

Yvonne is as beautiful as always.  Given the special occasion, this gallery comes in at 40 images which is 10 more than any other interview gallery.

It’s probably also bigger because — let’s face it — we’re all needing an Yvonne Strahovski fix right about now.

All of the pictures are lovely of course, but my favorite is this picture which I’ve made a special thumbnail for.

This capture is taken right before she starts talking about Strahotski.com. It’s that split second when she’s formulating exactly what she’s going to say to Carson Daly’s question about her Googling herself…

At least that’s how I imagine it anyway.  It may be wishful thinking on my part, but it’s a beautiful screen capture nonetheless.

Though I have chosen not to personally upload the video to YouTube, someone else has done so.  I can’t in good conscience keep such an awesome interview from the masses, so enjoy!

What did you think of the interview and the screen captures?  Yvonne’s becoming a regular over at Last Call, and each interview just gets better and better.

Yvonne & Strahotski.com on Carson Daly

This isn’t the first time Yvonne Strahovski has been on Carson Daly, but it is by far the best.

Not only was the interview very fluid and comfortable, but the best part of all was when Carson nonchalantly asked Ms. Strahovski whether she had ever googled herself.  Not only has she done so, but she saw fit to give a shoutout to Strahotski.com.

Carson quickly moved the interview along, but not before Yvonne mentioned that she found the site flattering.  That’s good to hear because I would hate her to think that we’re a bunch of weirdos!

Daly went on to mention how he always goes straight to the pictures and enjoys looking at the screen captures from Chuck.

Though he didn’t say exactly where he goes for those pics, we’re going to just assume it’s right here since we have the largest collection of Yvonne-specific screen captures on the Internet.

Overall, I couldn’t be more excited and grateful for the mention on Last Call.  It’s a big acknowledgment of all of the fans out there who frequent the site to celebrate Ms. Strahovski’s work.

The interview is happily transferring to my computer right now and I’ll get screen caps up in the gallery this afternoon.  Keep your eyes peeled for the interview to pop up on the Last Call site so we can relive the shoutout over and over!
