Her new show gets cancelled in 3, 2, 1...


Come on, let's get serious. Her show WILL not get renewed, and will most likely get cancelled halfway through. Sorry for the bluntness and honesty - love her all you want, but I am being a realist. I don't know who she paid to get her show up and running. But that person will be fired when her show flops. And of course when NBC cancells it mid-season, her fans will blame NBC, and not her bad acting. So my predictions: 1) her character will be a 'always right, know it all', 2) she'll be cranky, whinny, controlling to her children, 3) she'll be an a*s to her ex and her co-workers (characters), 4) she'll channel all the bad traits of Grace on Will & Grace, 5) the show will get cancelled mid-season.

Yes....I have no doubt it will get cancelled in about 6 episodes. I'm not a fan of her anyway....full disclosure. I liked her least of the four on Will & Grace....I loved the two supporting characters on the show, because they were just so over-the-top, and Eric McCormick was OK. But I find Messing just too damn annoying. I hate her wide, very fake smile. And, she seems to try to want to be the next Lucille Ball. I've read and heard her say often that Ball was a big idol and influence of hers. I just see her copying Ball's wide smile and look in her eye, and it's a futile attempt that has become extremely annoying.

Yeah. The show should have been called Karen & Jack - they had all the fun parts.

I guess you didn't forecast that one.

:-D

And how do you suppose she GOT the show to begin with? "Paying someone off" won't fly, because in show-biz, THEY pay YOU to star on their shows! They're called 'contracts', you might want to research how they are drawn up.
