10:02—We’re already debating civil unions. I think Sorkin might be dead inside.
10:04—Bobby commercial. A quick check of IMDb reveals that Joshua Jackson is in the film. How was I unaware of this exciting information?
10:06—You know what I love about Brazil? They probably don’t air Studio 60 there.
10:07—Um, Harry’s mom died and asked a national organization of homophobic women to look after her? That’s odd, right?
10:10—Again, no one in America cares about network presidents. Does Kevin Reilly hate kids? Does he have any? I don’t know. And if you don’t know who Kevin Reilly is, then you’re proving my point.
10:16—Elliott’s gonna kiss that new partner of his on SVU? Heart…breaking…
10:16—John Goodman crosses cultural boundaries by asking Simon about his twists. He calls them cornrows. The unmitigated gall! The network’s lawyer played the FBLA sponsor on Veronica Mars. I love him for this.
10:19—Lucy Davis! The politics of who gets called “sir.” Fascinating.
10:20—Despite being a series regular and thus a professional comedian at the top of his field, Capital One Dude is too nervous to perform as Simon’s replacement. This may tie back into “sir” or the twists. I’m not sure.
10:22—Hollywood’s a liberal cesspool. Or is it? Harry and Matt to the rescue!
10:23—Now Harry’s surrogate mommies don’t think she’s hateful ENOUGH. The irony!
10:24—Oy.
Danny: Her only big move’s been Studio 60 and Studio 60’s working.
Jack: Is it? Look where we are now.
St. Clare: Yes. Look where we are.
10:30—Unfunny skit. Not even a smile. Plus, it’s racist. Matt’s a genius.
10:31—Capital One’s self-conscious about his body. I really hope we can deal with this more in-depth sometime soon. Maybe it’ll turn out he’s a cutter or he eats tubs of ice-cream and throws them up while watching that show about the UN. That would certainly demonstrate newly plumbed depths of self-hatred.
10:33—Much Ado About Jordan McDeere. ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
10:35—John Goodman’s just a-teaching ever-body a lesson.
10:36—Tom’s little brother is an AMERICAN HERO! And his BRAVERY gets everyone off the hook. The show will go on and we’ll live to see another glorious episode.
10:38—Despite all actions to the contrary, John Goodman wants everyone to know something about Middle America not being full of Hee Haw extras. Now if everyone will turn in their textbooks to the practice quiz on page 58, we’ll get started.
10:42—Bradley Whitford, it’s too late to try to amuse me.
10:45—Capital One doesn’t want to go on even though Matt thinks that he looks very good in a very hetero way.
10:46—Lucy can’t get Ricky and Ron’s attention. I’m pretty sure that’s because they’re no longer on the show. Oh God, her sketch is awful and she’s….crying. Good God, you’re British! Stiff upper lip and all that! Damn you, Sorkin! She was the one thing that was unsullied. Women cry in the workplace. Because they’re sensitive and moody.
10:48—That Chinese bitch is spilling the beans to her dad. Jordan McDeere has brought shame to NBS. Jack to the rescue! He’s giving a speech and he’s giving it like a true Sorkin man. “Honor this and honor that and take your business to Time Warner.” Something tells me he’s landing this account. He does, though I can't tell if it's because something was Lost in Translation or the Chinese dude's just pretending it was. He's a wiley one.
10:52—Capital One’s only comfortable in a Santa Suit, with a mustache and a hat. Simon’s trying to give up the chair and even calls him “Sir.” Damn it, I kind of love Capital One.
10:53—Lucy’s still crying. Danny has to translate HYSTERICAL FEMALE. Cause chicks are CRAZY.
10:55—The "Simple Life/This World Changes Too Fast" speech versus The "Gay=Black" speech. Matt wants to protect Harry from gay street toughs. “Are you crazy about me, or just crazy?” Does this dialogue suck, or have I recently suffered a head injury?
Next week: Harry poses in her uptight undies and the newly crazy Lucy kisses Matt.
