Who doesn’t love Mariska Hargitay (?), how I made JLo laugh, do celebs get to request cuts from interviews, will 'Is God Is" get some awards love (?), and Lainey's take on Serena's comeback
I love all these logistics that you give us, it baffles me that I just assumed the questions asked in interviews would be off the cuff, but obviously, these would be deeply considered prior to the actual interview. I feel deeply stupid but grateful to be educated 😂
This is so timely because I just asked my 22 yo coworker what her favorite show is and loved that she said SVU. I was also obsessed with SVU and Olivia Benson when I was in my 20s (I'm 50 now). Nothing better than an SVU marathon with your roommate on a Sunday afternoon when you're hung over...Mariska forever!
I don’t watch SVU (saw one episode and cried for like an hour), but I love Mariska Hargitay! Especially because she does hella Olivia Benson stuff in real life and is such a victim advocate!
And I loved watching the clip and seeing JLo laugh and hearing about how much work went into such a brief moment. So much of what I consume is long form. I’ve been trying to get into podcasts lately and I just can’t. It’s so rare for me to find someone I can listen to talk for an hour at a clip, people just go onnnnnnnn. To see so much care and strategy developed around minutes of content…. Long live legacy media. What an art.
We don't here much from them anymore but Q Scores still exist here in The US. The website looks decidedly downmarket, even they are probably being pushed aside for AI.

Serena coming back is making me think of the book Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reed. Basically the same plot and worth a read.
Thanks for this mailbag! I love that Lainey got a genuine head-back laugh, but um, her glow is better than JLo's?! Spill the details please!
