Trophy Time

Mary Lynn Rajskub, who plays brainiac Chloe on Fox series "24" was the kickoff entertainment at the Television Critics Association's trophy show....

***

Rajskub started by noting how hot it was outside; the Los Angeles area has experienced record heat the past couple days -- up around 118 degrees in Pasadena, where the critics' death-march-with-scrambled-eggs known as Summer TV Press Tour 2006 slogs through its final week.

Rajskub told critics she intends to tell her boyfriend, Rush Limbaugh that global warming is real.

It didn't seem to play well in the room; maybe TV critics hadn't seen the photo of the conservative yakker planting a big wet one on her mouth during a recent "24" convention hosted by the Heritage Foundation in Washington last month. Or, maybe they just didn't want to think about it.

"I think I'm the one who listens in the relationship; he's not the listening type," she said of Limbaugh. She called herself a blank slate politically and said he tells her that we're waging "a war on war about a war and we have to go to war so we don't have to go to war."...

1. I sense

a long relationship...

[wicket]

2. Chloe?!!! How could you?!!

Ok, I'm seriously going to BARF!!!

:puke: :puke: :puke:

What does she see in that vile, disgusting man?!\

:puke:

[reichstag911]

4. Yeah, I wonder...

...what $he could po$$ibly $ee in him!

[wicket]

8. Ok, assuming she's after $$, surely there is a anotherrich guy out there..

...that isn't the the vulgar pig-boy Rush Limbaugh?!

:puke:

[reichstag911]

11. My guess would be...

...that Rush would be a pretty easy mark for her. How many good-looking 35-year-old women with any brain at all would go near that pile of toxic sludge whom we all assume (with some evidence) to be as personally reprehensible as he is politically?

[Roy]

39. Sure but Rush pays treble the going rate for

professional girlfriend.

Cuz he desperate for cover for his trips to boyland with the 'guys' and a bottle of lil blue pills.

[SpiralHawk]

20. Never underestimate the power of a Viagra-Oxycontin cocktail

Oh, ye of little faith in pharmaceuticals

[reichstag911]

29. Okay,...

...he'll have a stiffie, but will be too stoned to know what to do with it!

[Truthiness Inspector]

43. LOL

Thanks for a much needed laugh!

[Roland99]

5. er....**** SPOILER ****... I'll put my comment below.

Now I'm wishing they'd killed her off instead of Edgar.

[City Lights]

25. My thoughts exactly!

I'm so disappointed in her. Eeeeewwwwww.

[question everything]

50. Just from the story above, sounds like tongue in cheek

but perhaps this is wishful thinking on my part

But really we should not mix actors' characters with their persona. Right?

[Greyskye]

3. Ew.

Just goes to show that actors are never as smart as the characters they play. Of course, Chloe is completely clueless as far as interpersonal relationships go...

:crazy:

[Bake]

6. One can be brilliant

If somebody else writes the lines.

7. I seriously wonder if dude is either gay or has some bizarre fetish, like

aquatic life or something, and pays a succession of women like Kagan and this one to be his "beard" (cover story).

Reasonably attractive women already famous in the world of entertainment and TV could land all manner of guys with wealth. Maybe el Rushbot is some kind of secret stud, but I seriously doubt it. He seems physically unattractive and an obnoxious blowhard to boot.

I'm not seeing anything in the way of comments from Rajskub that speak of any attraction or even positive attributes of the guy.

[npincus]

9. Viagra-Boy? Limp-Nutz? Wilting-Weenie?

there's no accounting for taste. Unless she's a....

[NicoleM]

10. That is NOT RIGHT.

She used to date David Cross. David Cross! What kind of a person could date David Cross *and* Rush freaking Limbaugh?? David Cross is at least as awesome as Limbaugh is revolting.

[RandiFan1290]

18. Yep, I remember her from Mr. Show

She is obviously joking about dating rush. ;)

[liberalpress]

26. EXCATLY RIGHT...

Dems or Bushrepublicans.. we don't get irony or sardonic humor. She's improv-ing.. I thought it was hysterical!

[wicket]

45. Ok, what is the kiss all about???

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/photo/postphotos/orb/style/2006-06-24/1.htm



:puke:

[liberalpress]

46. Mouth is closed...

...eyes are open, looks surprised (and like she'd rather be somewhere else)

[Blaze Diem]

12. What is the attraction to this fat fucker??????????

He's fat, repulsive and a bold face liar. An addict with a bad back! How fun could he really be?
Money is just not worth the damage to a woman's reputation from associating herself with the likes of Limbag.
Rush will remain a permanent stain on their reputation for eternity...who needs that.
Why lay down with this ton of blubber?

Did I mention he's a grossly overweight big mouth chauvinistic fat fucker?

[npincus]

13. you forgot to mention the limp dick.

[Sydnie]

16. Who needs chemical aids to do the job ...

Viagra Boy Limpballs.

[TheCowsCameHome]

14. Geez, that woman must have some very serious issues

to be willing to bed down that sick bastard.

[Catherine Vincent]

15. Tell me about it!

Ick!

[Colonel Bat Guano]

17. She's joking, right?

Remember, her background is in sketch/improv comedy. This could be a gag playing off that picture of the two of them at the DC 24 event.

Otherwise, the only way I buy it is so she can have a three week relationship and then joke about it for the rest of her life. (Unless Limbaugh forces girlfriends to sign non disclosure paperwork...)

[npincus]

19. pics of her:

posting for people who don't watch the show and don't know who she is (like me).

Geez, she's attractive. I guess her lasic surgery didn't go so well, or it's very dark in her house.

[cascadiance]

21. I've liked 24 up to this point, but now I'm starting to get disgusted!

I allow for them to have the torture business as "creative license" and not realistic scenarios. Thought that the second season was more anti-Bush/Republicans than many other shows out there then.

But now Rush is "infiltrating" them way too much for my tastes!

First he was having his "Dominican Republic Stag party" with 24 producers according to the Smoking Gun...

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0706062rush1.html

And now he's dating Chloe? Damn, I thought Chloe would be more intelligent than that. Though perhaps she uses dating Rush to help her with "method acting" so that she can always look like she's got something painful up her butt the way she usually is being shown on this show.

[devilgrrl]

22. Bollocks. Who'd be stupid enough to date that fat miserable fuck?

I'm not buying it... sorry.

[shadowknows69]

23. A brand new beard for Rushie

isn't that special.

[Generic Other]

24. "a war on war about a war and we have to go to war so we don't have to go

What a classic example of doublestink--I mean doublethink--in action!

[whistle]

27. Mary Lynn Rajskub has the gold mine, Limbaugh has the shaft

....viagrically speaking:rofl:

[zbdent]

28. Can you say

diversionary tactic?

I mean, she's probably running interference for Jeff Christie, hmm?

[Beaverhausen]

30. She's only 35?

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0707476/

How old is he?

[VOX]

32. He's 55, and also has a considerable weight advantage. n/t

[shain from kane]

34. She played Squeaky Fromme. Could you imagine Charles Manson on

drugs and Viagra? That would be a man who thinks he's God on Oxycontin and Viagra.

[VOX]

31. Well, the Pill-Popping Cyst has a new beard. She's done stand-up comedy...

So maybe this is her idea of a "bit?" :shrug:

[thereismore]

33. He's not the listening type. He's bloody deaf from Oxycontin use! nt

[AnnieBW]

35. OMG, I think I'm gonna puke!

My favorite geekette is dating Flush Limpballs??? My role model is dating that scumbag? NOOOOOOO!!! :puke: :puke: :puke:

I haven't been this disappointed since Harrison Ford dumped his wife and took up with Callista Flockhart (he's MINE, you skinny bitch! I've waited for him longer than you've been alive!)

[WI_DEM]

36. What do these attractive women see in him? and it's not because

he's fat that he can't get a good looking woman. I've seen plenty of guys who are overweight with good looking girlfriends, but they usually are men who have good personalities and a good sense of humor to compensate. What does Rush have except a big mouth and a weakness for prescription drugs and Viagra?

[Beelzebud]

47. He has millions of dollars... It's not that hard to understand...

[sgxnk]

37. i think

in general that people tend to ascribe the same personality/character traits to an actor that their well known character has. ESPECIALLY with an actor who is relatively unknown apart from that one role

and i am as privy as anybody

for example, the actress who played Scully on x-files? the actor, jillian anderson is dumb as a box of rocks

but since her character was smart, it's easy to assume that the actor behind the role has similar traits

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

38. Read all posts in the thread--apparently this may be a big joke.

[DeepModem Mom]

40. Could be -- although the writer calls it "Trophy Time"....

as in "trophy wife," so I think she's playing it straight.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

41. But if you read the whole article, "trophy" show refers to the fact that

it was an awards ceremony, and Rajskub was the opening entertainment act.

[Feron]

42. I think she was making a joke

I remember seeing of picture of Rush kissing her on the cheek and she had a grossed out go away look on her face. It was plainly obvious she didn't like him. In fact, I think that picture was posted on this board. It wasn't too long ago.

[Doctor_J]

44. I think they were glomming at some right-wing function lately

a Heritage Lie-fest or some other such thing.

[rniel]

48. Who plays brainiac Chloe on Fox series "24"

Brainiac!!???

She sounds about on par with Brittany Spears to me.

[otohara]

49. She's Going to Him Global Warming is Real

be prepared to be dumped or browbeaten by fat fuck, mary lynn

[jackstraw45]

51. Time to buy Phizer stock?

Viagra sales must be through the roof!

:puke:

[feminazi]

52. Please, she has to be joking.

"She called herself a blank slate politically and said he tells her that we're waging "a war on war about a war and we have to go to war so we don't have to go to war."

The above comment makes me think she's kidding, but maybe it's wishful thinking on my part since I love her Chloe character.

:shrug:
