She’s blonde, about 24 years old and nowhere near as hot as she looks now, but that’s her, in full-on goof mode, making a face that suggests she might be missing or lacking a chromosome, God love her. The sketch features her as one of the nixed possibles from an episode of Singled Out featuring Dana Carvey as Ted Kaczynski which OH MY GOD MOST NINETIES THING EVER I’M GRUNGE-PUKING ON MY COPY OF SO I MARRIED AN AXE MURDERER.
According to IMDb, it’s not Blair’s first role. That’s a 1995 episode of Adventures of Pete & Pete that I actually remember, even if I can’t picture her in it. In fact, it doesn’t even appear on IMDb, but I’m certain that’s her. Right?
Along similar Cruel Intensions-y lines: that time I spotted Christine Baranski in an episode of The Brady Bunch and the time I saw Swoosie Kurtz drunk at the airport.
How funny, I just watched this same episode on Hulu last night.
ReplyDeleteThis show really was great, I can remember watching it when it first aired. I guess there's just something about Carvey's humor that appeals to me because I still think it's hilarious. I laughed more watching this last night than I have at any recent episode of a comedy show I can think of.
There were so many big names in comedy on that show who have become so much bigger than Dana Carvey; I always wonder how he feels about that. I never noticed Selma Blair, though!
