1. SOUNDBITE (English) Jonathan Bennett, actor:
"I'm very proud of it. 'Mean Girls' doesn't age, and neither do I. And that's what we have in common, you know? I have a lot of help. But no, I think the thing that is so universal about 'Mean Girls' is that high school never changes, right? So no matter - my parents identified with 'Mean Girls' the way that my generation identified with it, the way the new generation is discovering it. Because high school is high school, the plastics are the plastics. We all know who the mean girls are. Like, it's universal. So I think that's why it's just -- it stands the test of time. You know, Oct. 3 isn't really much of a holiday that I can remember. But of course, we use National Mean Girls Day to reveal the cast of 'Finding Mr. Christmas' because what better way to do it? Since our premiere is Oct. 31, we're like Oct. 3 is the perfect day to reveal the cast. And it turned out so well. Everyone's already choosing their favorites and picking the one who they think is going to be our next Mr. Christmas."
