so your dog is also a tiny sociopath?

Maybe, but aren't a lot of pop culture cats orange? Garfield, Heathcliff, Ripley's cat in space, Sandra Bullock's "pet" in The Heat, just off the top of my head.

Maybe I'm misinterpreting the posts here, but I don't think Margo plans to give up acting when she gets married. In the Cub Room, where she announces her upcoming wedding, she declares "no more make believe, off stage or on" and describes her plans to play "grown up women" in future plays. Speak of "modern interpretations," I see Margo as a kind of Liz Lemon. Successful career, husband and kids, and delicious sandwiches from NJ.

I love that all the cats’ expressions say “imma murder you human”

It was fine from iTunes

No, being a good liar doesn't makes you a great stage actress, but I was poking fun at Eve that she was always "on" when she was around Margo and the group.

Well yeah, her whole persona was an "act"

LOL, is it because you recently watched The Back-up Plan?

Yes, I totally agree he was at the least "bewitched" lol. It definitely showed when Lloyd ran up to New Haven in the middle of the night to help calm her down.

Look how fat that eggplant is! Interesting. I thought Eve made up the story (or at least heavily embellished) the Lloyd affair. I thought she "spilled her beans" to Addison, thinking he would publish it in his column and really breakup Lloyd and Karen's marriage.

Another thing - do you think Karen ever came clean to Margo about the car? On one hand, they're best friends and I'd imagine keeping a big secret like this would be a burden on Karen, but on the other hand, if Margo ever found out, I don't think she would forgive Karen - or at least it would take a long time before Margo came around. And I can't post a ss of this scene, but in the scene where Karen was painting, did anyone else catch that she was doing a still life of a bowl of bananas and a big fat eggplant. That made me chuckle.

I mean in the long run.

I totally agree about the chemistry between Margo and Bill - it's not a huge surprise that the actors themselves fell in love on set and got married - but did anyone really think that Margo and Bill were gonna live "happily ever after"?

Totally agree. I actually felt a bit bad for Eve at the award ceremony at the end when only one woman who didn't hate her stopped by to congratulate her. This is a major award and people should be fawning all over her, but people at the award ceremony just file out, more focused on the after-party.

Putting this in spoilers because it's kind of a silly topic.

My favorite was after the newspaper column comes out, Lloyd mentions to Karen that Eve had stopped by to see him to apologize. And Karen says "On her knees, no doubt." As wood ages, it gets more lines (i.e. wrinkles) though. Ok so did anyone else disappointed that we didn't get to see Birdie at the end? She sort of disappears. And where exactly did Birdie come from? She's slightly older than Margo and they reference her vaudeville act. At first I thought maybe Margo Eve-d Birdie, but Margo came onto the scene at age 4, so my theory doesn't work. Anyway, the actress, Thelma Ritter, had a face that I recognized from other movies, but I just couldn't remember - then I looked her up and she was in a bunch of things, like Rear Window. And turns out she's one of 3 actresses with the most Oscar acting nominations without wins (6 noms, along with Glen Close and Deborah Kerr). ETA: I think some of these things were mentioned on the podcast already

Aw, picture doesn't work.

Today, I got an email about the King Kong musical http://kingkongbroadway.com/

In the poster, Oliver and the gang are in a walkup building (fire escape), but they must be in the Burj Khalifa of walkups because the other buildings are tiny.

I voted yes on King Kong mainly for the stop motion special effects. However, personally, this wouldn't be on my list of top 100 films. Besides the obvious racism and misogyny, sometimes it was so slow that my mind kept wandering. When something finally happened, it was usually something being killed. For example, the way they kept shooting that stegosaurus went on forever, it was kind of upsetting. And King Kong is supposed to be a beast, I get that, but he kills everything and anyone and this made me appreciate later adaptations (and "rip-offs" like Mighty Joe Young) where you feel more sympathy for the ape. I guess I prefer my Kong to be more than just a brainless brute who smashes things.

Steak tartare?

Coincidentally, I'm going to see Turandot later this year and while I'm trying not to read too much about it (hello 100 year old spoilers), I've read that the story is supposed to be set in China, so June was probably right that Pavarotti was in stage makeup. Some popular uses of Nessun Dorma in pop culture - in Rogue Nation Ilsa is supposed to pull the trigger at: And in the last episode of Season 1 of Netflix's Daredevil, Nessun Dorma was used for the arrest scene and the version they used was Pavarotti's.

Sorry I'm late to the discussion, but in what situation will I need this emoticon for

So June was the guest on last week's Bitch Sesh episode and she mentioned that she likes a bigger boy!
