Sweet!
I cannot wait! The writers of Chuck can never go wrong with Bonita Friedericy- and she can be hilarious, too!
Chuck looks really sexy in that beard. I’m not sure what that says about me…
*applause*
Bonita certainly deserves it – she’s created such an awesome role in General Beckman
Beckman rules!!
It’s about damn time!
That’s cool- it’ll be interesting to see what she does with more screentime. I’d still rather get Anna Wu back though
ahhh super excited…
yayaya!!Can’t waut for Chuck!
This is awesome news! Bonita’s going to be a guest at our convention this coming February.
Video broken because NBC brass are snots and have copyright issues! Love the show, tho’.
Great news Bonita is so lovely and funnny. I hope she has been promoted as she was only a one star general so hopefully she is now a two or three star. Hope we get more episodes when she meets team b in person.
awesome! I never really liked her at first but then I grew to love her! this means one thing we get to see more of her character then just the fact that’s she leading NSA!
Is The actress that plays General Beckman (Bonita Friedericy) also playing a character on The Event.
