SHOW RECAP
Chandra Wilson ('Grey's Anatomy'): This actress was working at a bank when she auditioned for this hit show and that audition paid off! She's been nominated for Emmys and won a SAG Award for her character on the hit show. What's in store for her and the rest of the cast, you'll have to see.
David Foster ('Hit Man'): If you examine the major superstars of music, one thread connecting them all is that they worked with David Foster. This producer, songwriter, arranger and singer has the magic touch with music and his new book chronicles his four decades creating hits.
Peter Cincotti ('East of Angel Town'): He's been playing piano since the age of three, and this jazz pianist has just teamed up with producer (and co-guest) David Foster on a new album of original work. He's here today to perform his newest song. 'Lay Your Body Down.'

You can see more of Chandra on 'Grey's Anatomy' Thursdays at 9/8c on ABC.
Love your show and watch it whenever I can.
My friend and I are both middle age and obsessed with a vampire "Edward Cullen". We are both happily married and have 7 kids between us. We meet once a month to have "movie" night (Twilight) and can not wait to check out the updates on New Moon every day! We need therapy, and the only therapy we can think of is possibly meeting "Edward Cullen" a.k.a. Robert Pattinson, in person. Do you plan on having him on your show before the release of New Moon? We would love "ring side" seats for that show!!!!
Bonnie,
I love your show, I watch it every day! I was laid off back in October, and with all the new time on my hands during the day, I found your show. I love your ramblings at the very beginning of each show, that's my favourite part! When I get my next job, I'm definately going to have to start taping your show because I hate to miss even one episode now. Thanks for keeping me entertained,
Kristie
Love your show Bonnie. would also Love to have a cope of "The Teen Creed" you shared. Thanks Much.
David Foster mmmmmmmmmmm just sayin'...go for it
I am a fan of the show so please don't take this the wrong way but when you are interviewing people I feel you don't allow them to finish talking. when David foster was on he kept trying to talk and you wouldn't be quiet so he could finish, he even had to say "now back to me" and then he finished, I know you acknowledged this when Hilary duff was on that you didn't allow her to talk hardly at all on her first time on the show but you do it to a lot of your guest, I mean they only have a couple of minutes to talk about their lives and promote their latest project and most of it is spent on trying to talk over you. thanks for reading.
Bonnie,
I love your show I watch every day , I really love when your mom is on , I laugh so hard she is so great, you should make more time for her to be on she is so funny. I am from Chicago lived all my life on the North side love the cubs we use to walk to the ball park all the time . We moved to Lake in The Hills 14 yrs ago but we still go back to the cubs game . Tell Alice hello love her.

Hi Bonnie,
I love your show, you are truly a delight to watch and a breath of fresh air to day time t.v. Well I watched your interview with Chandra Wilson and she is wonderful. I loved her control over the young man from General Hospital, I think all women can take notes from her.
Take Care Bonnie, Luv Ya!!!
The chemistry couldn't have been more obvious with David Foster. He was so into you. Go for it!
Swear ta' god, Bonnie I couldn't help thinking that interview with David Foster was a little like Marlo Thomas and Phil Donahue when they met on his talk show. I'm just saying...
I'm a good old Chicago girl, like you, and just love listening to your stories. Puts me back on the block, down the street from the church and around the corner from the prairie. Right under the flight path for Midway! Anyone want to go for White Castles??
Hi Bonnie (and crew),
I have enjoyed you for many years (I'm older than you and can say that!) and want to thank you for sharing your warm, sweet personality with us. I can't tell you how much I enjoy spending my mornings with you, although I now get to work late every day, but since it's a volunteer position, they deal with it! Your parents did a wonderful job raising their kids with morals and values, and so please give your mom a big hug for me.
I so enjoyed yur Valentine's story the other day where you were stuck in the back of the car...what a hoot! My birthday is on Valentine's Day, I am 52 and have never had a valentine. I have always been fat and no one has ever been interested, so I have no stories...thanks for sharing yours. I have always felt God knew I would spend my life alone and the only way I would ever get to celebrate that day, would be as a birthday, so there ya go. He just didn't want me to feel too left out.
Thank you for all the work you are doing to find homes for dogs, too. Please consider having retired racing greyhounds on some day. They are my life, and a truly wonderful breed of dog. It's where I volunteer all my time, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Give Charley some ear skritches from my gang and me.
Thanks for your time!
Nancy
Hope you heard the shout-out you received on last night's episode of 'The Office'. For her birthday present, Kelly has to choose between watching an hour of television at work or taking an hour-long nap. When Stanley says that there's nothing good on television at that hour, Creed counters, "Bonnie Hunt is on."
Love the show! Keep up the good work. (More Holly, please!)
Hi Bonnie,
I love your show. I have been a fan of yours for a long time. My heart goes out to you with your dog situation, I hope Charlie is feeling better today.
I wanted to let you know about a couple of web sites that you can pass on to everyone. The first one is called www.petfinder.com - anyone can go to that site and choose what kind of pet they would like to have and you can find what you want at a rescue shelter or foster farms. this is where i found my dog 3 yrs ago and i rescued her from a shelter and she is doing great.
The other website is www.petloss.com. This site has some comforting inspirational information to help with the loss of a pet. It was a BIG help to me when i had to send my best friend to heaven.
Hi Bonnie,
Absolutely adore you and your show.
You sett a great example for young and old to just be who you are and don't be anyone else just to please people.
Your mom is so funny and reminds me of my grandma. The look on your face when she drops a one-liner in your "expence" is hilarious... and the only thing you can do is laugh about it.
It looks like you have a great mom and a wonderful relationship with her. It's so nice that you put her on your show.
Keep up the amazing work and never change!
Bonnie...I cannot tell you how much it means to be able to see your show again..I live in Utah and
Direct TV took the station that carried you, off the air at the end of December!!after being a Direct TV customer for 20 years and they could not tell me when they would get it back...and I have believed in Bonnie Hunt way before anyone(well just after Alice and David Letterman)...anyway so I canceled Direct TV and went to Dish...and I go through the day with a smile just thinking I get to watch Bonnie on my DVR...life is so so grand...you make me want to be a better friend to the people I am around...I saw you at Sundance and went down and my daughters snapped a picture with you...it is a prized piece...I loved your back and forth with David Foster today...and watching you with your Mom..so great.. I see why you are so good, with a Mom like that..such equal love and respect...Someday I dream of seeing the show in person just because I knew Bonnie Hunt was going to go far and I've loved everything you have ever done...way to go and thank you...it just keeps getting better...a true fan from Utah Rula H
Bonnie Hunt Foster. I'll keep my fingers crossed. I love you.
Thank you for having Peter Cincotti on the show. I absolutely love him!! and as for David Foster...go for it!!
Bonnie - I love you and your show, today's was great. Right now I am watching "David Foster and Friends" on Public Television just after seeing him on your show.I've been a fan since "Grand" and kept hoping you'd get a show that lasted longer than a couple of seasons. I think this is it because people are ready for your kind of humor with a heart. It is the hi-lite of my day, and no matter how things are going in my life, the guests you have on your show and their stories raise my spirits. I'd love to attend your show, but i'm 80 years old so I have to find someone younger than me, about 75, to drive me to Culver City. It could happen! In the meantime I will continue to watch and am confident so will many others.
Hi Bonnie
Love the spots with your Mom. But can't someone at your studio fix the TV behind you? Your Mom's picture is being stretched to fill the widescreen. You can't film her in regular 3:4 aspect ratio and then force it to fit a 9:16 ratio screen.
Hasn't she commented on looking 25 lbs heavier!!!
Geez Bonnie,
All I can say is "Oh Sweet Mystery of Life I've Found Him", Certainly had a hot chemistry with David Foster............he looks perrrfect for you. I say go on and getem...........
Bonnie!
Love you, Love your show, love everything about you...thinking about being you for halloween!
I watch your show everyday! I was so excited when I got home today and started watching the show! I love the segments with your Mom...what a hoot! I started the DVR and fast forwarded ( I think that could be a Bonnie Blog Word of the Day!) thru the commercials...when the show is interrupted by a Local News Channel for a Special Report! WHAT! Anyways, some hot shot guy named Barack Obama was visiting my hometown today to promote his Economic Stimulus Bill! Don't get me wrong I totally admire President Obama...and feel for the mess that he inherited from Dubya! Anywho! Do we really need to see Air Force One land? Bonnie's Mom is supposed to be on the show today! Honestly, I was totally excited that the President is here... and someday I will be equally as excited when I get to see your show and score a "Bonnie Hunt Show" t-shirt!
Keep up the good work...You are just what we need on television!
