Yeah, great clothes. I think you can get similar stuff from the J Crew Point Sur line. (I feel like such a twerp/dweeb saying that but I think it's right.)

Linda Cardellini is in the Avengers (Hawkeyes wife) and was the main star in Freaks and Greeks


And she was on ER.


and mad men? I think CA's acting was impeccable. Better than Mrs. Maizel. I think she'll be nominated for awards for this role! hard to believe she was Kelly buddy!


I think Linda Cardellini is even better - she has to show so much range in her role as Judy.


She was also the wife of Vigo Mortenson (Tony Lip) in Green Book last year. Not a huge part, but definitely shows off more of her range. She's the reason I started watching and wasn't disappointed.

I can't figure out how Jen lives in such a huge, beautiful house. She's a realtor and her husband was an (unsuccessful) musician. Where's the money coming from?


It’s eye-candy for the audience. Same reason Steve McGarrett in Hawaii 5-0 lives in a beachfront mansion he “inherited” from his dad. No one wants to see a small bungalow without a view.

I noticed the blurring too and thought to myself did they really do that?!


You are imagining that blur. CA looked 100% her age in this and every wrinkle showed and she was still beautiful. I liked her even more for being willing to be shown so naturally.


I think she both looks her age - and also looks like she's had work done. But that would be in keeping with her character, so!

Ugh I love this show so much. We finished episode six last night. Are planning/hoping to binge the rest tonight.

I have a weakness for James Marsden since Enchanted, Hairspray and 27 Dresses. I love when he plays a cad/horrible person.

I binged watched yesterday before Veep was on, but still have 2 episodes to go tonight. Linda Cardellini is so good in this, as is Christina Applegate.

Nope, go back and watch the scene where she’s in the Home Depot-like store. Absolute blurring of her forehead.

Binged it this weekend. Liked it a lot. Agree that CA courageously showed her true age and that actress playing Judy is stunning. Kind of had a Six Feet Under vibe to me.

Loved this show, cool to see James Marsden again, I hope whoever made this (Christina Applegate and Will Ferrell?) do more stuff, the quality is high.
