Ah, once again we delight in the slides from THAT show! It hit me that the snapshot of Julia hysterically clutching the phone could be captioned: "PLEASE! Ple-e-e-hee-heeeeease don't tell me you're all out of kalamata olives! NO! NO-HO-HO-HO-HOOOOO!"
I'm sure I did post some years back that some people with whom I am vaguely acquainted ran this episode as a run-up to the Oscar telecast and the people at their party were so riveted, they demanded to play it again ... and again ... and AGAIN. Grayson stole Oscar's thunder!
When "Julia goes off the deep end," theatre mavens applaud!
On a side note, I'd totally forgotten about "Gloria" Winters. Cousin of Little Gloria Vanderbilt no doubt. I'm now imagining some of Vicki's 1795 dialogue delivered with a Locust Valley lockjaw intonation...
Thanks once again to MB for making me smile today!
