  • Kinda funny Billy Bob Thornton impression
  • Jenna thinks it's an Oprah impression.
  • Jenna does "No" in Improv, proving that she's either selfish or ignorant of her own artform.
  • Jenna thinks, or is willing to BS, that what she's doing will pass for Billy Bob
  • Jenna is delusional enough to think the audience will love this.

The show was great at packing multiple angles into a couple of lines. Any other examples?

Yeah, Jenna is frequently off in her own little world.

Liz: "You've already made up your mind about this, haven't you?"

Jenna: "Oh, you're right, Liz! I should go for it!"

Liz: "You're not even listening, are you? Poop. Monkey butt."

Jenna: "No, you're a good friend and thank you."

    The Meryl Streep/Madonna bit was also excellent.

    "Okay, this buildup is making me nervous."

    "Just say who it is and I'll feel better."

    And the fact that we all know which one she's going to say just turns it all into a compressed shaggy-dog story.

    That show might have had the best comedic writers in my lifetime. I love the connection with Don Glover as a writer and the references to Stone Mountain, Georgia. It's probably one of the reasons I liked Community so much. In my mind, Tbilisi and Stone Mountain are only a few miles apart.
