As much as I enjoyed a whole episode centered on C.J. Cregg, last night’s “West Wing” seemed a little off. The storyline with her father seemed to be wrapped up too neatly, and despite being almost the same age in real life (IMDB to the rescue), Matthew Modine seemed much too young to be Allison Janney’s classmate. Janney and Donald Moffatt, as her Alzheimer’s-afflicted father, had some good scenes together. I was just expecting more from a C.J. episode. I wouldn’t mind seeing Stockard Channing once in a while, either.
Comic Book Guy: Last night’s ‘Itchy & Scratchy’ was, without a doubt, the worst episode ever. Rest assured that I was on the Internet within minutes, registering my disgust throughout the world. As a loyal viewer, I feel they owe me.
Bart: What? They’ve given you thousands of hours of entertainment for free. What could they possibly owe you? If anything, you owe them.
Comic Book Guy: [Pause] Worst. episode. ever.
Allison Janney is on the Today Show and The View tomorrow, I believe. Does anyone know what role she’s playing in The Hours?
I think but I’m not sure she plays Meryl Streep’s lover in “The Hours.”
i enjoyed the show, but I guess the lack of a 2nd plot kinda left me hanging – that and C.J and Modine having the same hairdo.
