I think the premise assumed that these busybodies were making a big deal out of innocuous behaviour. They called the cops on a girl scout selling cookies.

Aww. I have always been happy to see how much affection various castmembers show to Punky in the goodnights. Nice to see her here with Ego and James Austin Johnson.

Chloe's Martha Stewart reminded me too much of her Jennifer Coolidge. I was waiting for a twist where some of the green had come from Elphaba. Bowen played Charli and Charli played Troye Sivan in the Wicked auditions. In the It Girl sketch Bowen was Marc Jacobs with Chloe as Julia Fox. She reminded me here of Maya Rudolph. She appears to be American and I don't know of any connection. I wasn't wild about the song (I think the joke was a combination of how unreasonable they were complaining about non-issues while also referring to the cops as pigs?) but it was absolutely stunning to look at and I laughed at them dancing with cops. I enjoyed the first Domingo with Ariana Grande's bad singing. I thought this was a fun way to revisit it with the escalation to Kelsey being back with Matt and pregnant. Spelling out D-O-M-I-N-G-O to Hot to Go amused me. But I would have made Kelsey's pregnancy belly bigger.

I know the name but could not identify any of her songs. She was apparently a musical guest on SNL in season 40 (Host Martin Freeman) and season 47 (host Oscar Isaac), and of course Bowen played her in a sketch in the season 50 opener.

I knew it was related to Korea but I tripped myself up thinking I needed to be more specific, so I said Seoul but also tried to think if it had been something different at the time.

Value is not only monetary.

I was very puzzled by the plot description my cable company provided for Arena, in which it called Jean Hagen a floozy. Isn't Barbara Lawrence the floozy and Jean Hagen the respectable wife of Harry Morgan?

S50.E05: John Mulaney / Chappell Roan

I recognized the name from Devon Walker's impression of his fawning Trump devotion, but could not have told you what state he was from or what office he held. There was an incident in Toronto during the Rob Ford mayoralty where Ford wanted to cut library services and Atwood opposed the idea, which caused Ford's brother (then a city councillor, now premier of the province) to dismiss Atwood's opinion on the grounds that he wouldn't recognize her if he met her on the street. (Although I suppose that is the reverse -- he knew her name but thought he could put her down by not knowing her face?) Margaret Atwood has a very distinctive voice and I would have loved it if Sarah's impression had evoked that at all. It didn't click until they brought up The Handmaid's Tale but then I knew what they were going for with her hair. The Duane Reade musical was patchy and although the Chalamet/Cabaret rhyme was clever Chloe Fineman's singing was not good. The sound overall seemed bad and difficult to hear. -
They're definitely much more recent -- they were made in the late 19th-early 20th century, right up to the 1917 revolution. Faberge eggs are valuable because they're one-of-a-kind, made of precious materials, and very finely crafted. I used to think that they must be just large-jewel-encrusted gaudy rocks but then I saw pictures of them and was blown away. My favourite may be Lilies of the Valley.

Incognito is an English word at this point (from Italian). Autocorrect would have to be speaking Latin to think of incognita.

That sounds plausible. I haven't watched Adaptation (although I know Meryl Streep played Susan Orlean), but: -

It was very sweet but I have been a little stressed out about the absence of Oliver's son Will. I thought that regardless of biology they still had a relationship and that Will would not only be an appropriate contact but also he should at least be told about Oliver and Loretta's engagement. -

I thought of Stephanie from yesterday when the Laocoon clue came up.

I desperately wanted to know whether she is familiar with Natalie Haynes' Stone Blind about Medusa.
