Late Night with Jackie Woodman
We sure hope you're watching The Minor Accomplishments of Jackie Woodman on IFC every Sunday night at 11:30, the series with comedy drier than chronic dry eye and just as incurable. We're mentioning it now because it's being praised by others and we don't have to tout our own horn. Last week, Michael Slezak at EW.com, imploring people to watch, said:
Series stars Laura Kightlinger, the show's creator, and Nicholle Tom do boozy, bawdy comedy with a zest not seen on the small screen since AbFab's Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley. And unlike their Sex and the City predecessors, Kightlinger's Jackie and Tom's Tara have moments of tragic un-hipness: They're mid-level Los Angeles wannabes, and their clothes, their apartments, and their cars (or lack thereof) reflect their lot in life with painfully delectable accuracy.
And this week, Slezak wrote, "I think I love Jackie because she's like my secret, hostile inner voice, only with the volume turned up. Thankfully, Tara is always there to cut the acidity with her sweet cluelessness."
