Carroll indicated that, "It went over really well," but "obviously I didn't get on the show." She continued to do the impression, and had been doing it for about two years before making a short video called “The Olsen Twin Minute” that “featured Mary-Kate and Ashley in a talk show.” The experience led Carroll to realize she wanted to do more with the twin impression and “started trying to visualize what life is like for them. They’re rich and famous, but also kind of mysterious and private, which leaves a ton of room for the imagination.” Taking facts she already knew, such as Olsen’s use of a bodyguard and taking classes at NYU, Carroll crafted a web series that “started filling in the blanks.” In 2010, she began to star on ''Very Mary-Kate'', a web series she also created and wrote. ''Very Mary-Kate'' is the “unofficial biography of everyone’s favorite Olsen twin,” Mary-Kate Olsen. The series follows Mary-Kate's daily adventures as Carroll portrays Olsen as a "character who’s a weak-yet-demanding kitten obsessed with calories, abusing her bodyguard and getting her hands on the good drugs.” The series was originally produced out-of-pocket, but was picked up for its second season by CollegeHumor. The show's fourth and final season premiered on CollegeHumor on January 17, 2013. ''Very Mary-Kate'' received positive reviews. The Wall Street Journal called the web series "a viral sensation".〔 The @rcade stated that, Elaine has brought one of the funniest and best web-series to the internet.
