Jessa's a high-functioning sociopath. Shit just doesn't phase her. She's bored with life and everyone around her so she spends most of her time finding ways to entertain herself, which is mostly fucking with people. She'll be a ridiculously insightful therapist but she'll more likely than not fuck with her clients

Their extended discussion of Cats motivated me to read the Wikipedia article on it. Reading the synopsis alone was exhausting tedium. Half of the show is simply one irritatingly-named character after another introducing themselves through song. How the hell is this one of the biggest musicals of all time?

Worst friend of the week: Jessa's long streak of being the worst human being/friend is finally broken. And by Hannah, no less. But that's probably just because the other friends were marginalized this episode. Marnie did get some awful glaring in, though.

I love that Jessa only has three lines and all of them are bitchy putdowns. Is it just going to be taken as a given by the writers that these four women are friends no matter how awful they are to each other?

I can't express how disappointed I was that Hannah only tapped her shoulder with that punch. I thought Hannah was going to knock her stank ass out.

Not recent, but she's the bomb in But I'm a Cheerleader.

Marnie and Mumford deserve each other. Can they go off together to their own series so we don't have to watch them here?

Talk about Oscar-caliber performances buried in crappy movies. Bryce Dallas Howard was amazing in that stupid, stupid movie.

I wasn't 100% that T.C. was a character on that show.

I missed the "April becomes a nurse" fan theory (Helllloooo, Nurse!). After tonight's episode, my bet is she becomes head of HR/training for the city.

I double checked on Wikipedia and yes, it's a Magnum P.I. reference.

For some reason I never thought that Square Pegs was a major network prime time show. I had it in my head that it occupied the same space as Degrassi or You Can't Do That on Television.

Yup. A fact she's concealing from her "friend" Hannah simply because she wants to keep Adam around. My bet is that he's dating an actress from his play.

I seriously doubt it. That's a very easy practical effect. No need for "authenticity".

They probably didn't like her at the first meeting because her "fiction" was obviously thinly veiled autobiography and she prefaced the discussion with an incredibly condescending/self-aggrandizing speech.

Hannah is going to continue to write, just not in the way she envisioned. She'll be back in NY writing some navel-gazing blog while working at some literary-related day job. She'll get a $1 million offer for her blog by the end of next season.

Why would anyone start off someone who has never exercised before with something like Insanity?

Thank you for explaining what Shosh was watching. The reference went completely over my head.

Especially none by Don Lemon himself.

The Sorkin-ization isn't complete until they giggle and gossip amongst each other and then tell everyone else, against the express request of their man-boss.
