This one is about Sasha’s departure from the show. I believe you are all familiar with the fact that Donald Bellisario left the show on season 4 after repeatedly crashing with Mark Harmon. (x) (x) I’d heard stories about how the actors worked too much and how there were last-minute changes to the scripts. (x)

Mark was already a father by that time, and according to this article, this chaotic way of management was having a bad impact on his life. So imagine wanting to start a family and working under these conditions. Impossible. That’s why Sasha left the show. According to Bellisario, she asked him with tears in her eyes. (x)

So there goes the first half of the story. But when I mentioned it on the first ask, I said “to stop working too many hours and being able to eat normally again.” I added the second bit because of a video someone on here showed me (I’ve forgotten who it was, but if you want me to tag you, just tell me). (x)

I don’t know what it is about it but the whole thing is uncomfortable to watch and makes me cringe. But that’s not what I wanna talk about. There’s a part that goes on like this: 

Ryan Seacrest: “Are you on one of those Hollywood diets? ‘Cause you look fantastic, you’re in great shape.”

Sasha Alexander: “Thank you.”

[...]

RS: “What’s your routine?”

SA: “I work a lot, so I have to keep a good shape and stay on a diet to maintain my energy. I’m in the zone.”

Up until here I thought she was talking about a diet designed to give her more energy and that was it, but the exchange continued:

RS: “It’s more protein than carbs, right?”

SA: “You’re actually just eating smaller portions, but, you know, you can’t have burgers and fries...”

And like, I know that diet culture is huge among tv/movies stars, but seeing someone like Sasha, who hasn’t been overweight a day in her life (just look at her old pics on insta), be put on a diet simply because she has to be on screen? She was already skinny when she joined the show, were they trying to make her 2 dimensional? Imagine working that many hours a day with all of that stress and eating so little. I would (I actually have) fainted.

So it makes perfect sense to me for her to have wanted to quit the show back in 2005. And she had her daughter just a year later so I’m sure the first thing she did when her contract was off was to have a burger with a side of fries and spend some time with her husband. 

I’m gonna bring back @24601error-prisonernotfound’s tag because it fits here too and I’m mad about it.

1. What was your dream job when you were young ?

Honestly I can’t remember. xD  I’ve never been certain about what I wanted to be, but definitely something artsy.

2. What is your favourite city ?

I haven’t been to many cities and I find a lot of them to be super crowded (I’m a suburban girl, haha), but I do like Stockholm quite a bit. :3

3. If you could change one thing from your life, what would it be ?

There are so many things I want to change, haha, I can’t just change one. xD

4. What is your favourite movie ?

For some reason I can never decide what my favorite movie is!  I did just watch a Disney movie, Hatching Pete, but it’s definitely not my favorite.  (It wasn’t even that good either, haha!)

5. What is your favourite book ?

Either my own book or The Undertakers series by Ty Drago. :)

6. What word(s) makes you burst out laughing?

For some reason my brain isn’t able to come up with any right now, but I know for sure that there are.

7. What is your favourite food ?

Sara Lee Pound Cake.

8. Do you wish you had kept in touch with some friend more often ?

Definitely.  Keeping in tough with people is always really hard for me, and there are some people who I’ve simply lost contact with and I wish that we still kept in tough.

9. What are the fandoms that you used to be in ?

I used to be really active in the Doctor Who fandom, but I’ve kinda branched out and now devote less time to it...  I’m still in the fandom just not all that active. :P

10. What are the fandoms that you are currently in ?

Dirk Gently’s Holisitc Detective Agency, Legends of Tomorrow, and Lord of the Rings just to name a few. :) 

11. Do you think that the world belongs to early risers ?

Nope, not at all.  Maybe early risers are able to get to things earlier than late risers, but late risers like myself are able to work on things later and don’t have to worry about getting up early and whatevs.
