I wouldn't call myself a huge fan, but I've always had an admiration for comedian Laura Kightlinger. She's popped up from time to time on the TV screen on shows such as Saturday Night Live and Loveline, as well as Will and Grace, on which she was also a writer and producer. She's very funny, and this interview she did with USA Today's Whitney Matheson proves it. The two ladies talk about Kightlinger's IFC series The Minor Accomplishments of Jackie Woodman, which Anna first mentioned in May and is yet further proof that I need a better cable package because there are just too many channels with too many good shows I'm missing. At least, I assume the show is good since she's involved with it. Perhaps it totally sucks, but I wouldn't know. That's my point.

Kightlinger's uber-Botox job is too much of a distraction.

Love Kightlinger, not so in love with this show. I keep watching hoping it'll get better, but i'm about to give up on it. Too bad.

Gosh, I've loved Kightlinger since she was hosting lousy stand-up comic shows on the earliest incarnation of Comedy Central. (That's also when I began my love affair with Mark Marron, who used to hose Short Attention Span Theater.)
I've only seen one episode of The Minor Accomplishments of Jackis Woodman so far, but it seems to me to have real promise. I'm in.
