Looking at the image of the two of them, how he seems barely cerebral, I can't help feeling it was set up as a latent kind of situation, that she's put there like the tethered goat. I guess if he really does talk and say interesting things, which he must since he has another show, that's not the way it is. But he only looks barely sentient, sitting there.

Whenever I think about the women of Faux News, (which isn't often, thank god), I am reminded of the Frank Zappa song with the lyrics:

"What is the ugliest part of your body? Some say it's your nose. Some say it's your toes. But I think it's your mind."

Gretchen is the one I can't stand. She spent years modeling how to laugh off casual sexism for little girls in fox households, and only cooked up this new image as a champion for women when fox decided not to renew her contract. Nicole Kidney is perfect for the part.
