It gets old


Aubrey Plaza's thing is to look like she's better than everyone, bored by everything, and hating everyone.

To me, it's gotten old, in the same way that it's gotten old that Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chole from 24) always plays a hostile, bitter drone.

I was so looking forward to seeing Mary Lynn Rajskub in a new role in the movie Firewall (2006) with Harrison Ford, but she was just bitter again.

Also with Lewis Black, the anger thing I think has been played out. We get it, you cast all your comedy in the pretense that you're angry.

It's the same thing with Aubrey. I was hoping that seeing her on The Daily Show that it was all an act, and that I would get to see a new side of her, like haha it's all a joke, here's the real me. But she did her thing again.

I think she's in a rut with her role choices, or just has a limited range.
