I'll bet Olivia with her tiny head berated her, not getting the joke.
That poor girl, typing to you, crying as Olivia holds a stiletto to her neck. Not the shoe. You know, Italians..
An interview between "Betsey and I," eh? Between SpellChek and basic functional illiteracy, we're creating a remarkable new generation of magazine staffers.
In the '70s, the rawest intern at a minor Ziff-Davis special-interest magazine, where my wife and I used to work, was more literate than many a Conde Nast top editor, to say nothing of "Bryn." (Is that actually a name? For that matter, is "Betsey" permitted?"
I loved every single thing about Erin during that dinner scene.
I don't know what she was doing, exactly, with all of her weird swaying and looking under the table and her terrible posture, but she used every single one of my favorite Erin Kaplan faces, all the while looking like she was going to leap across the table and throttle Joe Zee.
I've been waiting for years for someone to make use of that shower in Big Chill analogy. It served its purpose well here, I'd say. Those Fackelmayers were up to no good at Lilypond and they should pay. Good thing Roxy gave them a talking to in between shooting scenes on Brothers & Sisters. #thecity
Olivia's interviews were painful to watch.
*cue fake smile, followed by "cool/neat/that's great/um, ok"
Both of the bloggers looked uncomfortable, and BOTH of them went "oh, that's it?" when she was done, bahahaha.
Erin, however catty and plotting she may be, is awesome at her job. I loved seeing her swoop in and save the day with better questions.
@Baroness: At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Erin splashes gasoline all over Olivia and lights her on fire. They're really playing up the animosity. #thecity
@Baroness: I agree 100%. I feel stupid watching this show (for multiple reasons), but mostly because they bash us over the head with one-dimensional characterization. Seeing Erin interact with anyone other than Olivia just solidifies my love for her. #thecity

Then she says something like: "Not a lot of people can pull that look off. I mean, I can. But most people can't."

Long live Erin Kaplan.

Joe Zee, you are a FOOL. #thecity

The show doesn't trust the viewers (intended demo age: 15) to get it.
It was actually nice for a change last week to see Erin smile and have a meaningful conversation with Kelly Cutrone. #thecity
