I've never been the main kicker and it took me a long time to actually
become a fan of the kicking team. But nevertheless, I'm glad she's outahere.
And wasn't
Yeah, see, it was this one here.
Post by sharonlast night's eppy a lesson in exactly why she's worn out her
welcome years ago? The mopey faces, the flat delivery (does anyone
really believe that Abby ever reads from the Bible, let alone whole
passages from the Book of Job aloud?), the rude attitudes, the
arrogance, the general unpleasantness of her?
Why is light given to those in misery, and life to the bitter of soul?
Post by sharonAnd, by gosh, I do
believe we set a record in that her pissypuss was in every darned
scene. I don't believe even the vaunted Mark Greene got that kind of
send-off.
Yeah, um, perhaps in your "re-imagined E.R." scripts he didn't. In the
actual show however, he got like a whole season of that and *two* full
episodes of send-off. Again, the discrepancy there is tied in to your
whole reality-vs.-confabulation problems.
Aside: "True" in sharon(s) speak is "Confabulated" in English.
Post by sharonI was watching with my baby sister. She is a lawyer, hates
medical shows, hasn't seen more than a handfull of ER and does not know
a thing about my interest in the show nor my dislike of Abby.
There is not a soul on this planet that is not painfully aware of your
pathological hatred of Abby.
Post by sharonAfter
about 5 minutes, she said, 'Is she supposed to be the star of the show?
I thought there were other characters in it.' Then, 'Is she supposed to
be that girl's best friend? But she was going to move out of town
without telling her! How could someone do that to their best friend?
What kind of friend is that?' And later, 'Does she always talk to her
bosses like that? Why does she still have a job?' When Morris said
that everyone loved Abby, my sis shook her head in disbelief. Then, as
Abby blabbered through the delicate surgery on the coach, 'Isn't it
really distracting when you're doing surgery and somebody is rattling on
in the background? If the guy dies, his wife should sue her for messing
with the surgeons while they were trying to work'. As Abby rode into
the sunset, she looked at the crowd gathered and said, 'You can tell
they're all secretly relieved she's out of there'.
Her final words, 'How did she end up with the cute guy and why doesn't
he get to say anything?'
Great story sharon(s). Now tell us, what really happened? You don't
really have a sister, do you sharon(s)?
Post by sharonShe also commented on MT's flat delivery of her lines last night,
especially the Bible reading. 'She really doesn't care about this show,
or she's just a bad actress'.
If in fact MT (in sharon(s)-speak: "Maura/Abby, the inseparable reality
and fantasy") does care about the show, that would make a grand total of
one.
Post by sharonShe also pointed out how absurd it was
that Abby would keep a Bible handed down from her grandmother, a family
heirloom for goodness' sakes, in her locker instead of in a place of
honor in her home. I did tell her that Abby hates her family and
generally against religion, so, in her case, it makes sense that she
wouldn't really care about the family Bible.
Wait, so you did in fact inform her of your Abbyhate at the very
beginning of the episode? Who is this that darkens my counsel with
words without knowledge? You just told me the opposite above
sharons(s)! Why did you lie to me sharon(s)? Should not your piety be
your confidence, and your blameless ways your hope?
Post by sharonI didn't say a word about Abby except to fill her in on who people were,
etc.
And that she hated her family. And that you hated her. And that you
confabulated E.R. scripts.
Post by sharonI guess it's genetic.
For your "sister"'s sake, let's hope not.
Post by sharonOr Abby really was that annoying.
Sharon
Welp, that's wonderful. Now your life can finally go on unimpeded by
your Abbyhate.
Or can it?
