I thought it was the funniest show in years. I had literally NEVER seen Natalie do comedy before, and I thought she was GREAT at it!
That was the only time that I tuned in each week to watch the show. Now I'll only watch it on cable if I catch it during channel surfing.
Must be something wrong with me: I don't find her attractive in the least and never did. Her appearances in the Star Wars prequels always made me cringe even worse than any scene with Jar Jar Binks in it.
She seems like a pretentious snob to me. "I don't want to ever be working for money because then you are no different to a prostitute," says she http://www.lse.co.uk/ShowbizNews.asp?Code=AL231757R&headline=natalie_portman_hollywood_whores

I'm a teacher. I do it because I get paid. Don't get me wrong, I like the job, but no cash for me, I'm gone. So, does that make me a prostitute too? God what a lame ass pseudo-intellectual.
