...sense. Later she had plastic surgery, three fraught marriages, a substance-abuse problem (alcohol) and two show-biz siblings, Jack and Lottie, with a talent for scandal. Instead of ensuring iconic immortality by dying young, Mary outlived her fame, ending up as cranky and isolated as Sunset Blvd.'s Norma Desmond--a role she was offered but turned down...
...level of humor). Admittedly, as the effete Toddy, Ross signals half his jokes and is forced to deliver some of the show's worst groaners--in response to Victoria's "I don't want to be a man anymore", he replies "Neither do I."

Protective of the 23 citizens who have already spent a half-year in a closed, dark room, Judge Norma Holloway Johnson refused the lawyers' request, saying if Clinton can take vacation, he can talk to the grand jury. And at the end of the day, there were widespread leaks throughout the city that Monica had offered Starr examples of hypothetical statements in which Clinton had tried to guide her comments...
