"When I'm begging to play Elle Fanning's grandmother on a CBS multi-cam" is one of the funniest and truest things I've heard. Brilliant!

[@silverarrowtarot]

i like her more and more. her comedic abilities are under used!

[@a9fc]

Came here and only know her from The Hunt. 2 scenes... the story she tells, and her talk with the veteren... I was like, wow ok, she has really good comedic presentation and timing!

[@OvSpP]

Yeah! She seems to hit like fun voices and sillies. She should do a sitcom.

[@charlie5115]

God I've never heard someone (kinda) famous talk about shame and depression like this, I absolutely relate, especially growing into a woman being seeped with shame.

[@MediaBrad]

Also Kristin Bell openly talks about her depression and whatnot on podcasts. It's quite refreshing to hear.

[@Christopher-md7tf]

What a beautiful woman. And I don't just mean on the outside.

[@c.brogansavage3385]

"Maybe you should work in a button factory" 😂

[@Bredda_Love]

So much honesty & transparency... BEAUTIFUL! Thank You! 1LOVEJohn

[@Joey-yo8mw]

great interview! very important and good conversation to be having

[@12Bananarama12]

She was amazing in glow season 2

[@jayweh]

the shouting match with ruth in the hospital was amazing. betty gave it all, so natural.

[@JusticeConstantine]

It is great to know Betty Gilpin beyond being a beautiful woman.

[@jayweh]

I have learned from the few interviews I've seen with her that betty gilpin has an excellent mind for metaphors.

[@DreamingInTechnicolor]

didn't know the comment section was pro-censorship. Though In my opinion the criticism was unjustified, I believe it was a discussion worth having. Everyone has their own personal hell, hurdle(s), obstacle(s), to overcome. She worked through hers, and chose to share a part of her emotional journey with us. There's a beautiful lesson in that. Shame and Depression - is not a third world issue, it's just part of the human condition. We all have or have had stumbling blocks to overcome.

[@StevePhil-qw4ep]

Her and Alison Brie prove there is so much more than just being a hot woman. To me, shes the most underrated actress out here because for her to make you forget how ridiculously hot she is with just amazing acting and a realnesss to make u feel her characters is remarkable. For her to stand toe to toe with an Edie Falco or an Alison Brie but to not get as much shine is a shame. Hopefully shell finally win an Emmy...awesome, spirited woman

[@AzrielGrace]

sounds like it's a personal revelation. lol these things aren't hard to believe at all for a rational person

[@ChristineHMcConnell]

She is amazing :D

[@thejiggy]

I didn't know she was this naturally funny lol

[@rufarojunior]

I love betty hope she stars in a movie directed by Quentin Tarantino

[@mauntraedouglas2260]

Cough... next Kill Bill movie ...cough

[@robbiekop7]

Bill already got killed.....just saying

[@mz5863]

Jezus. I'm girlcurshing so hard on this gorgeous woman who is only 3 years older than me but feels so much wiser and yet soooooooooo the same.
Relatable, fuck

[@caesartapia5702]

She did amazing in coffee and kareem.

[@FormerDeathMachine]

Sam, you’re an awesome interviewer. Betty must’ve been so fun to interview. @jinparkart

[@ldandco]

I still love this girl, even though I ended up hating the word "like"

[@bySterling]

HOW could she ever feel like a ‘troll’?!? ❤️

[@____uncompetative]

I liked her performance in _Elementary_ and am annoyed that I didn't get to see her action performance in _The Hunt_ due to sillyness.

[@imfiveone7158]

she's amazing in the hunt!!

[@____uncompetative]

Maria Manuela Delgado I'm glad to say _The Hunt_ has come to streaming, so I will see it there, but I would have liked to have seen it in the cinema.

[@DrQuizzler]

I'll add my voice to others here saying similar things. I'd love to see more of this funny, quirky, observational side of her in her roles. Maybe someday she'll be cast as a super-hot, insecure, self-doubting beta-type. Also, Sam asks really good questions.

[@kaivrock]

Someone told me years ago that "if you ever have a chance to date an actress, don't." They all have soooo many issues.

[@michaelpowell7120]

1 movie she has done?

[@BurdenErnie1]

The Hunt

[@austinmistretta8373]

So many mixed metaphors

[@Angels-3xist]

If you don’t like having your picture taken, you should feel free anywhere, not just in a button factory.

[@fiddlyphuk6414]

She may be too smart for her own good to work as an attractive blonde actress in hollywood. She'd probably go far as a producer with her creativity, insite and viewpoints. She should team up with Larry David.

[@fiddlyphuk6414]

@@lk969 Yes but the definition of "smart" is entirely relevant.

[@tenoriobologgnesi1802]

Is just me or Betty could play as a grown up Eleven from Stranger Things?

[@apolloptx]

You are genius.

[@mckennaogrodnik8123]

She should’ve played Marilyn.. just sayin

[@aprilleerose]

I couldn’t stand her character on Nurse Jackie. I love that her characters on shows has grown so much.

[@hamfan1355]

Um, not just girls.
