This is becoming my new favorite show, second only to The Office. The writing is great and the Tina Fey/Alec Baldwin combo just… works. Thank God NBC didn’t let Baldwin out of his contract. And Fey has such delightful, yet tasteful, cleavage.
“They gave me something. My mouth feels… purple.”
I used to find Fey’s facial scar very noticeable on the few occasions I actually watched SNL, but on this show I never even see it. What gives- better makeup?
“I have a lot on my plate right now.”
I also loved the explanation for the doctor’s bloody outfit.
Though I thought Sean Hayes was terrible.
I thought he was great for one reason- it took me a while to realize that was Sean Hayes! His look & demeanor totally fooled me.
I don’t care how big a jerk Alec Baldwin is in real life (frankly, I don’t think it’s any of my business), but this show would suffer irreparably if he left.
What I want to know is, why does everyone voluntarily go to Dr. Spaceman for everything?
I love that sassy broad Elaine Stritch! Colleen and Pheobe at dinner had me on the floor:
Phoebe: “I always dreamed of getting married in the spring, just when the petunias are blooming.”
Colleen: “What did you say?”
Phoebe: “Oh, my is she hard of hearing?”
Colleen: “No, I could hear you, I just wanted to make sure you could hear you.”
