Hello Bryson, nice to catch up! For those unfamiliar with you, tell us a little bit about yourself outside show business.
Hey so great to chat! I’m Bryson Robinson and I just had my 15th birthday which was pretty cool. We celebrated at Disneyland. I love theme parks, performing stand up comedy and watching baseball. Go Dodgers!!!
Great! Let’s talk about Season Six of Mani on Brat. What can we expect from the show and your character “Chris?”
Season Six of Mani is unlike any other season! There is a lot of Freaky Friday influences. My character Chris is up to mischief again! He actually body swaps with a snake named Diablo!!

Why do you think people are going to want to watch this season?
We have the best fan base that watch Mani. I think they will be interested in seeing what their favorite characters are up to this season. Every one of my cast members is awesome in their role and bring such a great energy to the show that is totally seen on screen.
Do you get recognized on the streets by any Brat/Mani fans?
Yes!! I always think it’s fun to meet fans. It seems like I run into them a lot at Universal Studios Hollywood. Fun fan experience was when I was in Disney World in Orlando Florida and some fans asked for pics when I was in line for a ride. So cool!
What’s been the biggest challenge about filming the series?
I can honestly say filming Mani is super fun. I haven’t ran into any challenges.
And your favorite part about working on the show?
My favorite part about working on BratTV Mani has got to be working with Lawrence Curry the creator of the show. He’s hilarious and is great at performing. I’ve learned so much watching him.
How are you and Chris alike and different?
Chris and I are alike because we are both a good friend to others and comedic. Chris differs from me as he takes on more risks and is always up to something mischievous.

Dream role?
My dream role would be me wearing a Hawaiian shirt playing a bank robber in 1980s Miami. I would love to star in a real character piece that shows off my acting range.
Favorite social media influencer or channel and why?
The Dodo is my favorite channel. I love inspirational animal rescue stories.
Biggest pet peeve?
My biggest pet peeve is when there’s mostly air in my bag of chips. I didn’t pay for air I paid for chips. Sometimes there’s only like 5 chips in the bag? What’s up with that? [We feel you on that one Bryson – Editor]
What’s your “get pumped” song?
Stayin’ Alive by the Bee Gees
Secret fear?
Bees!!! I’m really afraid of being stung.
What’s the last movie or show you watched, and give me a review…but you can only use TWO WORDS for the review : )
Lord of the Rings —Ring Epic
Tell me something people would be surprised to know about you
I love eating Delta airline cookies. There’s just something about them that taste better mid-air.
The one thing I cannot live without is:
Popeye’s Spicy Chicken Sandwiches!
Tell me ONE food you REFUSE to eat and why?
Onions!! They make you cry.
What else are you working on or have coming up next?
New episodes of Mani release on Thursday on BratTV. I am working on a project that I can’t talk about just yet.
