Because while it's still not great, it does have a lot more instances where it ought to make you laugh out loud (though not the scene the picture above corresponds to; Arrested Development fans see references to their show in everything - please move on) Chris Parnell and Judy Greer are getting as good as you hoped they would be in the beginning.

Is he really that much funnier than the rest of the cast, or does he just get all the good lines?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14472078546875948502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-4303829104366997572008-03-23T15:33:00.000-04:002008-03-23T15:33:00.000-04:00Miss Guided > The Return of Jezebel James, althoug...Miss Guided > The Return of Jezebel James, although that's not really saying much. <BR/><BR/>Hilarious that one of Demi Moore's desperate-to-be-a-star daughters is going to be in an upcoming episode.

And she couldn't even go into the dance she was chaperoning? BE AN ADULT, for crying out loud! <BR/><BR/>Chris Parnell rose above the proceedings- his character was horribly written as well, but he invested his usual nuttiness to rise above.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-68517141593284537272008-03-19T01:34:00.000-04:002008-03-19T01:34:00.000-04:00Miss Guided wasn't bad, but I don't know if I'll m...Miss Guided wasn't bad, but I don't know if I'll make an effort to see it. You do want to root for Judy to get the guy over the homecoming queen, but that could be me channeling my high school days. <BR/><BR/>However, is it a good sign that this show has not one but two former cast members of that excellent Fox drama Northshore?Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11317568565085893849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-80774564873584912852008-03-18T10:26:00.000-04:002008-03-18T10:26:00.000-04:00Jamie Lynn Spears and Ashton Kutcher.
