Wow, taking this show a little too seriously, aren't you?! It's just satire, and yes, Jill is mocking herself as much as any other character. Obviously! Why the outrage? Sense of humor on vacay?


Utoh, thread police is back. Nobody say anything remotely negative about the show or you'll get a beat down.

Sure, okay. I'm sure some dumbass will believe that.


46 here and I have the same type of forehead. Amazing what years of sunscreen can do for you. Might want to try it!


isn't that the truth. Sorry, but this 49 year old always wears sunscreen too, and I never "partied" in my 20s, always wear a hat when I know I'm going to be in the sun for an extended period of time...and you should see the rest of my face. Literally not one line. Yes my face has thinned out due to my age, but zero wrinkles.
Maybe someone is injecting botox in my face while I'm sleeping! Ooh I bet that's it.


So when you smile, talk or make an expression your forehead doesn't move at all? Amazing.

Lex is the one character I truly can't stand! Yuck. The names of their kids (Lex and Brooke's) crack me up - Rutherford, Langley, and I can't remember the others, but they're equally pretentious. I love Abby Elliot's delivery.

I don't think she comes across as "cooler and wiser" than the other UES moms - she's shown how insecure she is about getting her kids into the "right" schools, hired a nanny, etc. etc. It's just that when she does all these stereotypical things, she makes it funny. You know, so the viewers can laugh. Most of them, anyway.

Hilarious from start to stop. And the characters have developed since the first show. And I don't care what anyone says about Jill and her looks. As intelligent as everyone claims to be around here it blows my mind that no one "gets" that her being so unattractive is the whole point! she is the OPPOSITE of the UES!



So you are saying they purposely chose an overly botoxed actress with huge teeth and straggly hair?


no, yes and yes? where do you see Botox on Jill? do you even know who the character is?


+1
She doesn't look botoxed to me at all - that would defeat the purpose of having her look "different" from all the other UES clones. She just has an unusual look to her, but it's not bad. Honestly, some people actually seem offended by the way she looks, as in "how dare they cast someone who isn't conventionally pretty!". Kind of sad how women judge other women on their looks, isn't it?


totally agree. she's endearing, I think. I'd be friends with her any day over any of the other women on the show.


Same here. I bet she'd be a hoot to hang around with.

This is the biggest reason the show falls flat for me. That and its so exaggerated its not funny just sort of cringy and full of second hand embarrassment for Jill.

Also her smooth as glass forehead doesn't move even when she pulls her crazy zany faces - botox.
