Double Time

Jane Lynch adds nothing to an episode, she usually detracts. Her over the top acting ruins scenes. And I would never see her as a double for Steve Martin.

This is a surprisingly good role for Jane Lynch and continued the trend of this show just working. It has some buzz, but I think more people really need to get on board with it.

The addition of the always smug and abrasive Jane Lynch was not a bonus for this episode. Her presence is an irritant and doesn't add anything indispensable to the plot.

I did like Jane Lynch turning up as Sazz Pataki, Charles stunt double in his old cop show Brazzos.

It added some character moments to Charles and how his previous marriage fell apart.

You do wonder if his new found relationship with Jan might be disrupted by Sazz.

One thing for sure, Jan was never ever going to be squeaky clean. Then again not many are in the Arconia.

The only bum note was that the building committee could so easily revoke Charles, Oliver and Mabel's residency.

The penultimate episode sets whing nicely up for the finale by providing an important twist.

We forget that stunt double only sort of have to look like the actors they are doubling for. I think Jane Lynch could pull that off. She is a phenomenal talent, even if her acting is one note. That said, the plot thickens as the folks are bringing too much attention to themselves. That Nazi who runs the meeting should not have gotten away with that--for heaven's sake, it's New York. Whoever it is that has already made his/her point about Selena Gomez, she's not playing Ophelia in Hamlet or Mrs. Miniver. You want her emoting all over the place? She fits into the trio and is going to take a step back when with Martin and Short. I am so excited to see the season finale.
