Harry Shearer’s “Found Objects” series continues on My Damn Channel, this time with a reel of behind-the-scenes bitchery on the set of conservative talk radio host Laura Ingraham’s new Fox News Channel show, Just In.
It’s certainly nowhere NEAR the glory of “DO IT LIVE!” but it is interesting to see someone repeatedly condescend to her production staff and complain about every little thing going wrong. I really don’t know if her anger is justified, it does seem like a bit of a circus in there, and I’m impressed with her ability to not curse. Nevertheless, it’s fun to watch a television personality struggle, isn’t it?
It’s 9 minutes long, so if you have a life, I have pulled out some of the best quotes after the jump.
BEST QUOTES:
“What are you DOING?”
“The word ‘the’ is spelled wrong in the prompter.”
“Don’t come in my ear. Just don’t.”
On a guest she is about to interview on air: “Any questions for this guy…other than ‘are you kidding me?’”
“Jesus God in Heaven!” x 50
“If one more person opens that door, I’m going to nail that door shut. Who IS that hovering in the hallway? I don’t want a hoverer. Don’t hover at me!”
“Every time you flip from script to video in the prompter, I get some Hispanic lookin’ man on the screen, I don’t know who he is, but he’s been in my prompter the whole night.” (Off camera, you hear laughter and someone saying “It’s an illegal!”)
“This is a trainwreck.”
