\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tFrom Logan Roy\u2019s death on Succession to those major guest stars on season 2 of The Bear, 2023 was filled with shocking scripted TV moments. The sophomore season of Jeremy Allen White\u2019s comedy-drama became a critical darling upon its premiere in June as it followed Carmy (White) and Syd (Ayo Edebiri) as they prepared to [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Bad Monkey<\/em>, which premiered earlier this month, is based on the novel<\/a> of the same name by Carl Hiaasen<\/strong>. At the center of the series is former police detective Andrew Yancy (Vince Vaughn<\/strong>) who becomes a restaurant inspector but is sucked into a murder investigation when a severed arm is pulled out of the water.<\/p>\nBuglioli, meanwhile, played a meteorologist who Yancy had a crush on. Viewers saw her<\/a> deliver her predictions for the weather multiple times before she ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time.<\/p>\nDuring the fourth episode, which was released on Wednesday, August 28, Heather overheard Eve (Hagner) and Nick a.k.a her secret boyfriend Christopher (Rob Delaney<\/strong>) discussing all the crimes<\/a> they committed. This led to Eve murdering Heather in cold blood in a parking lot to keep their secret from getting out.<\/p>\n\n![\"Bad](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Bad-Monkeys-Lauren-Buglioli-Breaks-Down-Heathers-Brutal-Death-How-the-Show-Nailed-It-in-1-Take-2.jpg?w=1000&quality=86&strip=all\")
<\/div>Apple TV+<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\u201cI was really excited [to film the scene], to be honest. I like to joke that I cry a lot and die a lot on screen, and I absolutely love Meredith Hagner and Rob Delaney. I just have the utmost respect for them and everyone involved in this production,\u201d Buglioli told Us<\/em>. \u201cSo that scene was really exciting to be a part of because while it was unexpected \u2014 it was a lot of fun on the day.\u201d<\/p>\nIn addition to having a blast filming<\/a> Heather\u2019s death scene, Buglioli first put in a lot of hard work to bring the character to life.<\/p>\n\u201cI obsessively watched weather forecasts and I was lucky enough to interview two amazing meteorologists, who told me how surprisingly cutthroat their industry can be. They had to work very hard to get to where they were, it could often be thankless and people can be really, really competitive,\u201d she recalled. \u201cSo it helped me justify \u2014 not excuse \u2014 some of Heather\u2019s behavior and helped me make sense of who she is as a human.\u201d<\/p>\n
Heather was briefly seen being rude to Rosa\u2019s (Natalie Martinez<\/strong>) sister, who was also her makeup artist. Buglioli found it easier to act out that scene once she developed more of Heather\u2019s back story.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\n![\"Summer](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Summer-TV-Preview-2024.jpg?crop=0px%2C0px%2C988px%2C559px&resize=400%2C225&quality=86&strip=all\")

\u201cI justified it by thinking about how tough her industry could be and that she was possibly stabbed in the back to try to get to where she is. So she has her defenses up and became an unpleasant human being,\u201d she joked. \u201cI would not be friends with her. And I like to joke that we\u2019ve all run into our fair share of mean girls so they gave me some inspiration as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
While Heather didn\u2019t end up making it to the end of the season, Buglioli is incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to work on the show<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u201cSome of the highlights for me were getting to talk to Vince in the trailer and him just being so kind and down to earth.

<\/div>Apple TV+<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe actress appreciated how her costars appeared during their time on set.<\/p>\n
\u201cI always think about how important it is to be kind and easy to work with. Just walking away from this, no one had any ego. That\u2019s really, really incredible to see and to see it is possible in this industry. I only have wonderful things to report about this team,\u201d Buglioli added before sharing what she hoped to teach other actors through practice. \u201cWhen things are high pressure and high stress, being able to bring joy and a steady positive attitude is really important. The incredible thing about working with all of these humans on Bad Monkey is they exemplify that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Buglioli is hopeful that this isn\u2019t the last time<\/a> she plays a character in Lawrence\u2019s TV universe. As a fan of his work, Buglioli considered it an honor getting to join in an official capacity, telling Us<\/em>, \u201cIt\u2019s been beyond my wildest dreams and it keeps getting better. So if you told me I\u2019d work with him again, I\u2019d jump up and down and be screaming.\u201d<\/p>\nAfter years of acting, Buglioli\u2019s time in the industry has helped her develop an important perspective on the bigger picture.<\/p>\n
\u201c[For me it is about] always trusting that you\u2019re exactly where you\u2019re supposed to be. A younger version of myself wanted it all and wanted it all quickly. But there\u2019s something to a slow burn because you learn so much and you earn your stripes and have a deeper appreciation for the journey,\u201d she noted. \u201cHad it come easily for me, I don\u2019t know that I would have such a sense of reverence for the experience. I try to remind people that every part of your journey is conditioning you for where you\u2019re headed. So the road\u2019s been really winding for me, but I think the reason I\u2019m internally screaming with glee all the time is because it hasn\u2019t been easy and there\u2019s something to that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Buglioli has also found joy outside of the entertainment industry by giving back<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u201cI didn\u2019t have my health in my 20s. I was hospitalized for a while with bilateral pneumonia and someone from the Good Dog Foundation came in and brought their giant chow chow to visit me. It was the first time I had smiled in weeks. The second I get out of the hospital, I got a dog and started volunteering with the Good Dog Foundation,\u201d she shared with Us<\/em>. \u201cThat gave me a sense of purpose and seeing how someone taking time out of their day to give back to a stranger changed the trajectory of my life. I volunteered with the Good Dog Foundation for 10 years and then found Chastain Horse Park. They teach horseback riding to children and adults of all abilities.\u201d<\/p>\nBuglioli highlighted the Heart Gallery organization as well for helping place children in foster care and forever homes<\/a>, saying, \u201cI got involved with both organizations organically and it helps me maintain perspective and to say, \u2018If that person hadn\u2019t shown up for you, you\u2019d be a different human being.\u2019 So in the midst of a dream coming true, [it is all about] maintaining perspective, staying grounded and remembering what\u2019s really important and hopefully have enough of a platform to bring awareness to organizations like Heart Gallery and Chastain Horse Park. It\u2019s continuing to pursue the dream that can sometimes break your heart but coming back to what really matters.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
