Pre-L: LMFAO

L603: “LMFAO”
With apologies to Chandler Bing: Can, open. Worms, everywhere. The Shenny secret is out. And upon hearing the news everyone experiences – what I like to call – an involuntary, uncomfortable Sphecter-Tightening. Prepare to pucker. Oh, and Shenny fans: relax, unclench – I come in peace. LMFAO, indeed.
[Click any and all to enlarge.]

1) Who Wants Jenny Dead (WWJD) 2: “Fucking Jenny. I'm gonna fucking kill you.” 2) God, this is going to take some getting used to.3) No, really, possibly my entire life.4) Dude, I just had the weirdest dream.5) Alice: Sphecter-Tightening Illustrated6) Just Tweet all your friends; it’s so much faster.7) Maybe even several lifetimes.8) Paging Mr. Seinfeld. We’ve located your puffy shirt.9) What? The personality transplant? It itches a little, I guess.10) A swim you say? Hmm, I’ll consider it.11) WWJD 3: Just in case you didn’t hear Tina the first time.12) Oh, God. The crazy. It’s contagious.13) Fun Gay: FAIL14) Inelegant kiss avoidance in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…15) Fuck, this is my script? What’s next, a Post-It?16) Where can I get me one of these? Seriously.17) No way, I’m only the second Asian-American character ever?18) Wait, did I flip over to an after-school special on accident?19) Wow, the economy really is bad. Shane is recycling outfits.20) Hey, Chaiken. Stop trying to make this happen.21) The only appropriate responses to Shenny.

New Guestbian Count: Jamie Chen (Mei Melançon)
What She Said: “Bette, you are and will always be the woman of my dreams.” – Phyllis to Bette
Least True Statement Ever: “Alice is so annoying.” – Jenny to Shane
Most True Statement Ever: “Boundaries? Jenny doesn’t even know the meaning of the word.” – Helena to Alice
Most Jenny Thing to Say Ever: “I’m happy we fucked.” – Jenny to Shane the morning after
Most Deluded Thing to Say About Jenny Ever: “And I have to believe that she is not going to get weird.” – Shane to Alice the afternoon after
Murder, Ilene Wrote Finally Explained: “It’s about a talk show host who is really fantastic and is dating a cop who is dark and broody. They get caught up in this murder mystery so there’s like car chases and it’s got the action excitement. It’s kind of ‘Foul Play’ meets “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.’ So it’s got the romantic, action. It’s kind of got everything.” – Alice pitching Jenny her treatment

Man, the only reason to tune in these days to to see Tasha in a sleeveless top. Or hear her laugh. (There better be some Tasha!laughing in an ep title LMAO). Also, I'm probably the only one, but I miss Molly. Maybe she'll wander back in with Carmen on her arm and they can grin smugly at the insane person Shane's become. ("Seriously, Shane? Jenny? I did that, it involved pee. 'Nuff said.")

Shenny?!? You're right, cue up the laugh track and get the alcohol ready to pour.

But perhaps you're selling good ol' ilene short; M's the third Asian character. That's assuming you're willing to count both Marcus' wacky girlfriend and Melvin's nurse Shelly... each with about three lines.

Sphecter? HAHAHA! Genius. I'm going to watch this after the first broadcast so I can FF. I'm not expecting to laugh that much, not even during an episode called LMFAO. Who the frickin' frack is dressing Bette this year anyway? Enough with the horrible blouses already. They're a fashion crime against humanity!

Shenny? What were they thinking? Isn't that even in one of the episodes when they're talking to the film company? You know, when you get to see the same scene but with different characters, like Shane and Bette (I don't know which one's worse, that or Shenny).

I agree with Samfeasor: More Tasha, pretty please.

I agree with previous poster

"Who the frickin' frack is dressing Bette this year anyway? Enough with the horrible blouses already. They're a fashion crime against humanity!"

Yes they are a fashion crime.

Are there no power suits? Are there no tank tops? WHY ????

With a body like JB's why do they insist on dressing her as a pirate? I don't care if it's the "style" nowadays. Refined sexiness never went out of style. She is so toned and taut that she can easily wear form fitting clothing w/o any fear of "muffin tops" or excess bulging flesh. She's on the cover of the "Love Issue" (Feb) of Michigan Avenue magazine (she's a native Chicagoan) and looks amazing! And she's 45 frickin' years old. That scene w/Bette and Phyllis at the bar is so funny. JB really has excellent comedic timing and of course so does CS.

I'm totally with you all on Bette's frilly blouses. Although I gotta say JB's probably the only person on earth who can actually pull them off.
But Lydia Martin wrote in her blog that she asked JB about the blouses and JB didn't quite understand the question cause she LOVES those blouses! Ahh, isn't she "adorkable"?!

I find it so disappointing that none of the characters still have the same personality they did in the first couple of seasons. Especially Alice, who used to be funny and sweet. Now I find her very annoying and fake. And Jenny and Shane together? Ewwww!

Norma Desmond said...

Seriously, every week...more and more ridiculous. Loved the bit about Jodi's personality transplant, though. Cheers to that. Also, whoever's dressing JB should be fired... then burned at the stake. Bring back the power suits!

If you are referring to Tasha's tank top, go here: http://freecitysupershop.com/ The shop is owned by Leisha Hailey's girlfriend. I am dying for an "Artists Wanted" shirt!

But if you were referring to Rose Rollins, I am of no help there. Sorry.

Alice's faces are priceless! Oh and I love the fear look. She knows this won't end well already. Oh and Jenny saying Alice is annoying is like the pot calling the kettle black. Shut up Schecter!

Shenny is all kinds of WRONG!!! But I'll take Tasha any day!

Just fan mail, Ms. Dorothy. Thanks for the Pre-L roundup and all your great daily posts. The laughs make my day!

Disbelief, shock, nausea, fear... Dorothy, you're a genius!!! Yup, we're all hatching plans to murder IC too. :)

Have to say I am well over this series now but your pre-caps are hilarious. No. 15 especially tickled my fancy! If only the show itself was that funny.

What about Adele? Isn't the actress who plays her Filipino?

OMG, I love it, too true.

Picture #4 just gave me the willies...it was kind of awful. I mean, I could see this thing happening about four seasons ago but NOW!? Really.

Anonymous said...

So the treatment is Alice and Tasha. Well, to be fair, Tasha wasn't around when she wrote Lez Girls.

Anonymous said...

Oops, I just read how ambiguous that is. She=Jenny. What is with IC, Jenny and Alice ripping everything from: a. headlines b. personal life.

Gab said...

he thing that was my biggest 'wtf' moment was the whole eric maibius (sorry for the spelling, but the guy who played time) mention!! I thought that shirly would have made it into your quotes, just like alice's mention of Helena's kids last week. If you didn't catch it, check out the Shenny dialogue right after the 'monkey' comment...

Anonymous said...

I might be the only one but I have no problem with Jenny & Shane's relationship. This was in the making seasons ago. I always said that if Carmen was not coming back, the only person I want Shane with was Jenny.

I love Tasha's laugh too. Too bad she and Alice do not last by the finale.

You forgot one very important screencap. But that's okay, here it is:

^^ Too funny, but true! As for the rest: hilarious! Shenny= PUKE!

Penny Cillin said...

That episode was so hilarious. Did you notice around 21:35 Alice and Shane eating yogurt at the Planet...totally a throwback to Leisha's old Yoplait commercials. So funny!
