Redemption? Maybe. Also, possibly, spiraling the drain

You know, one of the things I really don't like about LJ is that if you post on the weekends you don't get comments. Anyway, despite lack of interest, on with the television:

I am so very close to hating Matt Albie right now, and the only thing keeping me from being all "my god get off my screen" is my love for Matthew Perry who is doing some great work even keeping me in there despite Sorkin. The comments about Christians are cheap shots, which make me particularly hate that Albie is Jewish-I mean, come on. You are so spot on here: Matt, all you're showing is you are too ignorant about religion to make jokes about it. Which is sort of the same as saying, Sorkin is too ignorant.

What I want to know in all of this is why Kristen Chenoweth dated him in the first place, particularly if she had to put up with any of this nonsense. And since then, as Harriet's being based on her is widely known, she's had to distance herself from things on the show, particularly the weird statements about gay marriage. I wonder if she wishes she hadn't given Sorkin permission to base Harriet on her. As if Matt/Harriet wasn't creepy enough, one always has a sense of Sorkin trying to work something out so he can be right (because Matt seems to always be "right" in the stream of the narrative) which is just vile and selfish and jesus, go get therapy because I don't really want to watch it.

Ugh. This show should have been good.

The woman must be totally amazed at the stuff that comes out of "her" mouth. It's ridiculous he's even saying it's based on her. Harry's career isn't even the same.
