Just when I thought I couldn't love Dana Steingold-- or this show-- anymore...

Not to mention, I don't think I've ever really seen Allison Janney play flustered! I love it!

you've never watched The West Wing have you? She played flustered a number of times.

All A-Jannz PLAYS is flustered. You must have only seen her in her performance on The View.

I love the West Wing. I own the series. She just always seems in control though as CJ... different than she is in this ep of TBD anyhow... no biggie.

in control? of what? SHE WAS THE PRESS SECRETARY, she was at the will of the president and the COS, they routinely withheld information from her, which she would discover at a later period and become flustered. It was sort of a regular thing.

Gotta say, I think they nailed it with this one. I would definitely count myself in as a fan of this show. And while I think it tends to sometimes miss the mark, this is EXACTLY the direction I think the show should be going in. That "Campy" number had me unexpectedly laughing out loud and the direction throughout the whole episode was much better than anything I've seen in the past. Good job guys!

I love that the only people that came to her Bat Mitzvah were the kids from 13.
