I loved Rashida in Unhitched, but overall, I thought the guys blew. Sigh.
24 | Grace Tue. Feb. 26, 2008 at 6:50pmI guess I am the odd man out, but I liked Unhitched. It is a very crude comedy though. I totally predicted that Rashida’s pretend boyfriend was the leperchaun (sp?), but I guess it wasn’t hard to pick up on.
23 | McKenna Tue. Feb. 26, 2008 at 1:15pmI was psyched to be an OT tipster about Unhitched on iTunes, but I wish I’d warmed up to the show. At all. Rashida wasn’t bad, though! The script just didn’t suit me. I guess “The Office” has made my standards too high … ::sigh::
22 | tessieholic Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 11:06pmOooh, Unhitched is bad.
21 | Mose's Awesome Beard Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 8:18pmVery bad.
Sorry Rashida.
Jenna has the best blogs! She is so down to earth.
Ouch…I really wanted to like Unhitched, and thought I would because the preview on TV looked funny…but I watched it and well, oh well. Maybe the first episode was rough and the acting and writing will improve. Here’s hoping!
20 | what's the dealio Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 5:42pmI can’t believe how much Urban Outfitters hiked up the prices. I’m glad I got my stash of doubles long ago at Target. :)
19 | StephanieC Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 3:04pmI agree…I am not a fan of Unhitched. I was a bit skeptical after seeing the terrible reviews and surprisingly they were right on target. If the show falters, perhaps Rashida will make more appearances in The Office.

TWSS?
17 | lemoñadé Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 1:06pmI really wanted to like Unhitched too but- it was really un-funny. I did love the jacket Rashida wore in the beginning though.
16 | Hailey Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 1:06pmWell…my Target had already run out of those magnets when I got there…so I considered buying them till I realized they were $10.95 with shipping. Sorry Office, not worth it. I have only been to Urban Outfitters once…I didn’t realize they sold stuff other then clothes. Weird.
15 | vielgluck Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 1:03pmYeah, I really wanted to like unhitched, but it was very unfunny. Rashida didn’t have any funny parts, and the whole monkey thing was just a ridiculous gimmicky way to start the show.
14 | CLFormality Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 12:39pmI hate to be negative, but I didn’t enjoy Unhitched at all. I don’t think I laughed once. I am curious what everyone else thinks of it…?
13 | caro Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 12:24pmTammy-
I saw those prices at Urban Outfitters and I got all proud that I didn’t have to buy the mug for my sister for 8 DOLLARS!!!!! That is crazy….. And when did and “I Love Jim” Mug become a “classic”?
12 | McKenna Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 12:20pmDoh! I’m not a tipster on the Rainn/Scottsdale appearance? Someone else must have sent in an email before mine got in. I should get Mavis Beacon to help me on my typing skills, so I can get emails out sooner.
[from tanster: sorry, no. i got the news in a feed before you sent in the tip. you have to be fast to be an OT tipster! ;) ]
11 | lemoñadé Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 12:06pmI’m so proud to be part of this “huge cult following” that Brian’s article talks about….
Cannot wait to get home tonight to download Rashida’s show…. I caught the commercial on fox a few days ago and it looks pretty funny.
and I love that Jenna recreated her stalker paparazi photos at home…. that’s too perfect.
10 | Joanna Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 11:40amLoved Jenna’s blog! I hope that the paparazzi keep away from her bird/squirrel feeder… Disturbing the wildlife is a heinous crime.
9 | Tiffany Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 10:08amDangit, Jenna….stop being so freakin adorable!!!
8 | Laundry and Betrayal Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 9:33amI’m excited to watch “Unhitched.” Thanks for the tip and for all your Weekend Tally info each week!
7 | Kelly C Mon. Feb. 25, 2008 at 7:37amOMG.. Jenna you make me laugh so hard…!
