Hello W.Y.P Viewers,Well, I'm off to Japan at the end of this week, I'm sure I'll fit right in there... My film "Out at the Wedding" is the closing night feature at The Tokyo Gay & Lesbian Film Festival and they have invited me to come on out and be there for it. How cool is that?! If you don't know much about "Out at the Wedding" you can check out it's webpage, www.outatthewedding.com, it has been racking up awards all year the latest of which is LOGO's New, Now, Next Award - Audience Choice for Best Future Feature. You can see some clips of it on my myspace page (www.myspace.com/cathydebuono).
Anyway, saying all of that to say - this is why there is no new W.Y.P. for you this week. The good news is I'll be shooting footage of my journey in Japan and using it to create a prototype of a new online travel show that I'll be producing and co-hosting with my lovely fellow actress, Jill Bennett (In Her Line of Fire, Dante's Cove).
When I return from Japan, I will have a couple of days to recuperate before I'm back on a plane to Philidelphia to shoot "Tremble & Spark", the first of a trilogy of film noir shorts from producer Kelly Burkhardt where I will be playing detective Charlie Forest, and starring opposite Jessica Graham's (2 Minutes Later) villaness, Veronica Anderson
I plan to shoot footage there too, and aim to have new episodes of W.Y.P. ready upon my return, the second week of August. My mom and little sister plan to visit me there, and I plan to rope them into spilling their guts on camera... (insert evil laugh here). Should be fun - until next time!
Be Well,
Cathy DeBuono

Episode 17, "Photos, Friends & Pheromones: Part II" picks up where we left off last week with Cathy and her guests - her dear friend and co-creator of their current project in development, Slate&Kelly (www.myspace.com/slateandkelly), John W. McLaughlin and artist/photographer Kerry Krenzin.
In part II, they get to a letter from W.Y.P viewer "hoops", who has questions about how to navigate dating when you bring mental illness and physical scars to the table.
The three out friends discuss this issue while Lucia takes a breather to deal with a tummy ache in the other room... (bad cheese?) When they decide to share their scars with us veiwers Cathy drops trou, and despite her on camera decision to edit it out... it some how makes the final cut anyway.
While the issues addressed today are certainly nothing to laugh about, Cathy and her guests find a way to keep us smiling... as usual.
