[@susanwelch969]

Anne of Green Gables is the best Anne with Megan. I can watch that a zillion times. There is no other Anne with an e.

[@CyeOutsider]

She will always be Anne Shirley to me.

[@mr.2cents.846]

The best Anne ever.

[@lauraboudreau3535]

The only Anne

[@rosamariamendoza1466]

Without question!!!

[@happytime7222]

New Anne and movie is trash. Montgomery is turning over in her grave. Thank God for MeganFollows and The wonderful Canadian version

[@ryann6805]

Facts.

[@maryloupedreiro8374]

Most definitely!!!

[@nicholaliu5845]

She is the best Anne

[@andypike1234]

Charm and charisma of this woman is mind blowing

[@deborahn.6215]

She got her mother's looks... lucky girl.. excellent actress.. LOVED her in Green Gables.

[@jillrudy5599]

I love anne and green gables. I watched it over and over and over again. My grandma went to prince Edward island to see the house where the movie was filmed and when she came back home she brought a Anne porcelain doll. I was so excited. It was a good movie growing up.

[@mrsx7944]

I'm planning a trip to PEI myself. From Western Pennsylvania. I want to see the Anne landmarks too

[@erict6100]

Love Megan Follows! She is great on Reign.

[@michaelcristiancrow]

She's great in underrated 1985 film SILVER BULLET!

[@mrsx7944]

I forgot she was in Reign!!

[@Alan-lv9rw]

She's about 43 here, but looks many years younger. It's refreshing to see a celebrity with some intelligence and depth. One thing she is not is shallow.

[@felix121984]

I’ve notice that many Canadian whites look young for their ages.

[@shaybrew]

@@felix121984 they live healthier, overall, than we American whites… 😉☺️ Part of it is that they don’t allow the same amounts of poison into their foods that our treacherous FDA in the U.S. does… It literally costs more here to eat healthy, fresh, organic foods than it does to eat processed and preserved contaminated garbage. Killing the people and keeping the pharmaceutical/medical industry booming… Fodder for the Machine.

[@mrsx7944]

@@felix121984 probably because they're very outdoorsy ppl and they stay in shape.

[@saleemamorgan838]

Green Gables, Avonlea and the Continuing Story. My best loved shows ever. I am even watching now. I bought the vhs and dvd. Thank You Anne Shirley, Megan Follows you were Awesome and Talented. Congratulations ❤️❤️😘

[@daphvetu2571]

Her smile is so lovely

[@candi0826]

Love Megan follows will always love her in Anne of green gables.

[@KlassyKat45]

Megan is Canada's sweetheart. Love her.

[@Emptiness512]

She is a brilliant actress...just love her

[@jacobbump1282]

Of course I will always see her as Anne, but she is just brilliant in everything she does. :-)

[@nandofim]

My sweet, beautiful and eternal princess Anne of Green Gables.

[@paulaford3303]

I have been a fan of Megan Follows for years. Bravo to Megan for standing firm on women's issues, and important world issues as well. She is not only beautiful and lovely on the outside, but she is even more beautiful on the inside. She is wise beyond her years, and a total blessing to the entertainment business.

[@PrincessDiana1256]

Megan Follows, I have always lived your character Anne. In fact I call my home "Geeen Gables" because of my live for Anne of Green Gables. And of course my home is green but the love of that show, and your work was inspiring in so many ways. You are strong. You are kind and your acting contribution will be with us forever. You will be loved forever....

[@colinmackinnon696]

She's beautiful 😍

[@soniaglasper5502]

I have the full set of Anne of Green Gables which I have watched so many times. I lent them to a friend at work and she kept them for months. She was besotted with Gilbert and she too, watched them over and over again.

[@lindaldotson]

I'm absolutely crazy about Megan Follows! Hopefully, we will all see more of her work in the future!!!!!

[@epedja88]

How much I love this women. Anne was my favorite childhood tv series and I think I could watch that again and again. So much respect for her. Anne was very much popular in Serbia, especially during the 90's and war happening in Ex Yugoslavia.

[@coltthestarsheriff3544]

O, da. Hvala Brothers Karićima na tome, da imaju i oni neko dobro delo u rukavu kad budu stali pred Svetog Petra. :D Salivenove serije su generalno neśto posebno, ali En je simply the best!

[@Pfinas.Hobby.ClipBox]

She has always this wonderful cute smile

[@Romantist]

Wonderful, Megan! She's so famous in Korea and Japan.

[@a2shake]

In love with Megan Follows since 1985 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@thatissofetch5508]

SHE IS FREAKIN GORGASSSS

[@garyluchau432]

I've got all 3 Anne of Green Gables set. Loved that show. This is the first time I've seen her as a full blown adult, still a sweetheart.

[@hairijedhrimaj8460]

Anne of Green Gable, is played wonderfully by this couple of actors; I am so sorry now I learned that the actor playing Gilbert has died, at the age of 48

[@7mandoblu]

Megan will forever be Anne from Green Gables and Avonlea. As a Disney Channel fanatic as a kid, I watched her in both of those films and in another movie called Return to Hannibal, she played Becky Thatcher.

[@angelacarleton9575]

Marvelous actress and enjoyed watching her career throughout the years.

[@FrancoFornasari]

Megan's such a great actress!!!! Love her! thanks Megan :))

[@helenatroschke2866]

I love you Megan Follows!

[@rocknroller1986]

Love Meghan, she made me proud of being a Ginger. Anne kicks ass!!!!!

[@hippomancy]

actually still primarily think of her from her 3 part stint on Littlest Hobo. nobody was on more than an episode, and yet here's three of them... plus a cutie my age. she rocked it as Anne- grrrrl power, and has matured as a great actress and director (hopefully more directing projects to come)

[@ragingbull2271]

Megan Follows is drop dead gorgeous! I've had a major thing for her ever since Stephen King's Silver Bullet when I was a kid. She blossomed into a stunning woman! She seems like such a sweetheart too.

[@BlueBerry-pw3jr]

❤️❤️❤️❤️som many hearts to you Megan from Bahrain 🇧🇭 you were amazing in Reign ❤️❤️❤️

[@williamoleary9330]

Loved Hockey Night.

[@mooka4515]

I adore Megan.

[@1977rach]

great interview. really positive attitude towards acting etc. Like her very much.

[@AaronSaltzer]

She seems like a good actress. I’d be interested in seeing more of her roles. I knew someone who looked a bit like her.

[@vangiegudgeon3892]

Megan Follow's very Spot On i Adored her very muchly hope all is well with you & family's🙏💚🐾🐕!!!

[@kirstyw.6854]

love you Anne !

[@hairijedhrimaj8460]

She is the original Megan in the interview

[@garyluchau432]

Brava Megan Follows 🎉🎉😊

[@frenchieseverine4514]

Wow! i am french but love LOVE MEGAN FOLLOWS.She's smart,bright and beautiful in her way and she speaks very well .She is a single woman but she's mature and i love her mischievous smile and eyes she already had in Anne of Green gables and other movies.And she 's funny too sometimes and her eyes are so shining and have sparkles she must be nice in real life ,funny even if a bit strict .. I am a feminist too and not ashamed of that.I defend whenever i can women who live alone or i try to stand up for their rights and my rights too. Good video! Thank you a million times!! Stay yourself Megan follows! Greetings from France.i adored you in Anne of green gables and "sin of innocence".

[@PredatorKingdom]

Jo's cousin on The Facts of Life is the first time I saw her.

[@AndySaenz]

Road to Avonlea wouldn’t have been so successful without its predecessor, Anne of Green Gables. I think they were both directed by Kevin Sullivan.

[@katy9532]

Yes, I agree and I think all the fake in Hollywood these days are just insane. When we see other women in other countries and how they live and are. If only they could see how some people have to live. Here in Hollywood: whens the next plastic surgery. And to so many in other countries: where's the next meal coming from. Think about that!!!

[@WILDHEART39]

how come no one ever mentions her from Stephen King's "Silver Bullet" ?

[@redmr2na]

michael stafford Sin of Innocence, A time of Destiny?

[@rodneyhickman825]

Yes one of my favs

[@MisiaQMusicisgoodforeverything]

Bardzo lubię Megan Follows, zawsze jednak będę Ją kojarzyć z Anią z Zielonego Wzgórza, bardzo mi się też podoba w serialu Reign gdzie gra Królową Katarzynę :)

[@dpwXXIPolskaPolak]

No dobra a skąd wiesz /skad wiemy jakie Ona moze mieć lub Ma poglądy lub sympatie obyczajowe,polityczne, geopolityczne....

[@robsonjosedasilva1277]

Jane Coslaw. Silver Bullet.

[@AmaindeJH]

Megan Follows, you may get older but you're also forever YOUNG!!! Not to be cliche but really. I love her, and I love Maragaret Atwood. So excited about this new production.

[@ilovemusic1823]

Gilbert and Anne need to marry in real life idc if they are in there 40's they look soo cute together ;'( wish the movie was real

[@thevanillameringue]

Loraine Moxham He was a gay man and he is sadly no longer with us now.

[@weeroonafarm5981]

OMG - literally more beautiful as the years pass, and talented etc. And @ 10:50 she says Mum like an Aussie, not Mom in the US - is that a Canadian thing?

[@ThuyLe-uk5cy]

😍

[@josephat8334]

Catherine de Medici comes to mind

[@MonstrousViLLain]

Silver Bullet

[@davidsirmons]

Holy shit, she's single?!?!? (hops in my car)

[@siobanethier]

That's too bad, but you're allowed to not like it. You probably got an earful about it growing up. I'll bet Megan is more sick of hearing about Anne than you are, though. She'd want to get through one interview without having to talk about it. When I met her, my dad asked her if she's sick of talking about it. She gave a very diplomatic answer: "You know, it was a good role." so... I can understand her not wanting to talk about a role from 26 years ago.

[@Cloudstrife112233]

Eponine Thenardier It's sad that people only ever want ask actors about one roll they did way back when, when they have been in many other successful productions, and don't treat them like regular people. It's also sad to think that it might taint her memory of being Anne.

[@tgltyty]

why not? just curious

[@thepanda1044]

She went from being the cute farm girl of Avonlea, to being a gorgeous woman.

[@ryanshuler0110]

Megan is beautiful inside and out. Canadian women are better than American!

[@kerrijohnstone7588]

“Thinking we have an equality that we don’t have” I THINK she is discussing physical strength. And all we women NEED to understand that. Men are indeed physically stronger. Bodybuilding or no - men will ALWAYS be physically stronger that is how God designed us. As a Christian I DO believe that and submitting to a husband, HOWEVER, when it comes to work etc we should be paid for what we do equally. For instance, I was a Naval Police Coxswain in the Australian Navy, and I got paid EXACTLY the same as my male counterparts and that’s how it should be! But we need to be realistic, there are some things men are stronger than us.

[@claudemaassen2963]

The point of view of Penelopi must be boring compared to her husband. He fought Gods, Witches, Cyclops and Mermaids she waited at home fighting off suiters. LOL

[@janetclaireSays]

As a mother of two sons and a daughter, I can fully identify with Megan's description of her son and her daughter!

[@riase]

The only good Anne

[@14Schofield]

I just don't, maybe it's because I live here and hear too much about it.

[@dickiegreenleaf750]

Looks the same. Voice is deeper but that’s normal.

[@Nightbreed82]

Well, when you say the name "Meegan Follows" the first that comes to mind is that you pronounced it wrong.

[@theastewart6721]

Paul Leach Actually that is how her name is pronounced. Meegan. I’ve heard an interview with her mother from years ago in the 80’s when Anne of Green Gables came out and she made it perfectly clear that that’s how it’s pronounced. Not Megan. Definitely different.

[@Nightbreed82]

@@theastewart6721 Must be one of those weird Canadian things.

[@theastewart6721]

Paul Leach Maybe so. There is a 4 part video series about her family that I just watched, The Follows Family, and it’s Meegan through and through. It just always stuck in my mind after I heard that interview with her mom that I think was about the making of Anne of Green Gables. Probably in 1987 or 88. Because it was different I guess.

[@Andohish]

Oh, I was gonna say, Megan Follows who?

[@14Schofield]

I'm from PEI, I don't really like Anne of Green Gables, ok bye. :P

[@nandofim]

Did psychiatrist improve you?

[@tonyarc9455]

It sounds like President Trump!

[@Penny-bt4gc]

?

[@chuckdriver7741]

I was a fan, until she spoke about feminism. I don’t like victims. 🇺🇸

[@defpixel]

Wow she's sooo bitter towards men lol
