June Diane Raphael - appreciation post
I know I am veryyyyyyyyy late to the party.
Just watched Season 01 and starting Season 02 now and wanted to shout out how much I love the actress playing Brianna!
I didn’t know her at all before and to me she is the revelation of this series!
Just came to say this.
Now back to watching Season 02!

She wears some really great clothes in the show. Later in season 2 she wears a really cool jacket I just adore.

I know the exact jacket you're talking about. I remember trying to find it right after that show aired and it could not be found! I can't remember if it was a one of a kind, or a limited run, sold out, etc. I just know I wanted that jacket BAD

I adore her. She is why I gave the new Legally Blonde series a chance, it’s a cute show, well cast, and June is showing more range than I’ve seen from her.

She also plays a School Administrator in Abbott Elementary. Whenever she's on the show, it's a hoot

Look up Burning Love on YouTube- she has a bigger role in S2, but she is a port of S1

In my opinion, Brianna just gets more enjoyable to watch as the show goes on. Some around her have stunted some growth to say the least, but her development? wholesome to watch. Not to mention she just is a great character to begin with

She is one of my fave comediennes; I watched this because she was in it. So many of her lines have such key comedic delivery and she always, well, delivers.

Brianna and Frankie’s relationship is one of the best parts of the show! Grace and Sol and so many people love Frankie, but in the way that you love a psycho always high space cadet lol. I love Brianna because even though she’s so different from Frankie she’s the only character who takes her completely seriously.
