Carla. And did you notice how they said to Valerie in the meeting that Aunt Sassy would continue like before, yet on the whiteboard behind her it clearly said "Aunt Sassy breaks a hip"?


Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Yes, Valerie is a good person, but she is also annoying. Anyone else hate her "thank you" hands? It drives me nuts!

I don't find anything annoying about Valerie. Nothing at all.

So did anyone see it last night or could nobody cope after the devastating Six Feet Under? It was comedy genius again last night, with so many little moments to complement the very big moment with the awards dress.

A friend of mine has a theory about Paulie G, since he's STILL being an ass to Valerie. She thinks that he was an intern/runner on I'm It and Valerie was foul to him and he's holding the grudge. There's only 2 episodes left, so who knows?

I watched last night, but out of all the episodes, this one seemed to lack focus. Valerie having her heart set on wearing the Dynasty-esque gown to the People's Choice Awards was funny.

Did anyone watch the latest episode. All of a sudden the show is lacking continuity. Next Sunday is the last episode (of the season) and it will be interesting to see what happens.

I'm caught up on the show, and I just love it. I can't believe we only have one more episode. I have a feeling things are going to get GOOD when her reality show debuts.

I only ever saw it once; but I laughed out loud, which is something no current television show ever makes me do.

Lisa Kudrow always makes me laugh. And then there are things she does that are truly heartbreaking (like when she spoke about having to wear a back brace in high school).

That was a great moment--there is so much subtlety to the show. Just the short shot of Jane's reaction in the mirror spoke volumes without bad dialogue or beating us over the head with anything. The show never insults one's intelligence and lets you truly play observer to this story as it unfolds.

I came home at the very end of last night's episode when she SPOILER punched that writer in the stomach. I screamed...I have no idea what happened before that moment, but in and of itself it was hilarious and gratifying!

And her I WILL SURVIVE??? Genius. My boyfriend kept screaming, 'THEY HAVE TO GIVE HER THE EMMY!'

I couldn't agree more. One of the most masterful performances I've ever seen on television.

I have to say that women of a certain age are doing well for themselves on TV: The Desperate Housewives, Ms. Kudrow and also Elizabeth Perkins and ML Parker on WEEDS.

Robbiej, was Lisa nominated for this show? She really is amazing as Valerie Cherish.

I agree. I think this show is brilliant!

I miss it so much re: Anyone watch The Comeback?. Lisa was robbed of an Emmy! Lisa was talking to Billy Bush though and were trying to bring it back in a new format however and that she would to her best to not let it die! Here's for hoping!

I really enjoyed this show. I didn't like the first episode but as the show progressed, it got better. It became one of my favorite shows so I knew it wouldn't last. Come back Valerie Cherish!

Just got into this show as it's been On Demand. They only have episodes 1-6 though and I need to see the rest. One of the most hilarious things I've ever seen and a truly incredible performance by Lisa. I agree she was robbed at the Emmys...
