Those would not have been my guesses ...
My own two "can't stand-ems" are Jackie Hoffman, who has always given
overplaying a bad name, and MacLaine, who has -- to the best of my recollection
-- given only one performance that I found even remotely tolerable, and -that-
was in 1962.
Gomez would be fine if she could somehow move her voice out of the back of her
throat. I generally dislike Schumer, but have to admit she was quite
(surprisingly) good in "The Humans." Fey is Fey. Good in some things, not in
others. As much as I liked "30 Rock," "Mr. Mayor" was a series of missed
opportunities, but I guess that's what one gets when one gives Bobby Moynihan
too much rope.
I will miss Houdyshell, who is a national treasure.

I have always been a fan of Ms Gomez as an individual. Her music is not to my
liking, but most pop music isn’t so I don’t judge her harshly for that. She’s
very stiff in the first couple episodes, but her character is stiff for reasons
explained as the series unfolds. She does not have the comedic timing of Martin
or Short, but that’s a high bar to reach… Gomez holds her own, though, which is
commendable.
I am generally averse to Tiny Fey, mostly because 30 Rock was not as good as
many thought it was. But the one I find genuinely devoid of talent is Amy
Schumer. Her entire act seems to be “I’m blonde and have breasts so if you
don’t think I’m funny you can f*ck off.” That act would work if she actually
was funny. But she stages it that any guy who doesn’t laugh at her jokes must
be sexist, and any guy who points out that her jokes aren’t funny must be
because of how she looks.

Dave Sikula, to Kevin M, Aug 25th:
While I can only guess who those actresses are (I have my suspicions ...), Rudd
may be a bridge too far for me. I honestly can't stand the guy.
This series is a pleasure to watch. Even two actresses I dislike are pleasant
on this show.
