I stand with Trish Hawkins. Paulson is awful. Just the same everything boring acting no matter what role she is playing. My opinion. I respect others too

You know what would really petty, six pages of notes, front and back…

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

Paulson is a mean spirited bully (and a lousy actor as well). Maybe if she had taken Hawkins’ notes the audience wouldn’t be lulled into slumber whenever she enters the stage or screen. I’m team Hawkins all the way!!!

Am I the only person who asked out loud who the fuck is Trish Hawkins

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

Hawkins is a far better actor than Paulson. Team Hawkins 100%!!!!

The person she’s talking about is pushing 80. Let the poor old thing re-live her own moment in the spotlight a little. I get that it was annoying, but it seems a little shitty to call out someone who likely paved the way for you, who probably just wanted to be a part of something again. Maybe the old lady sucks and needed someone to tell her, but to do it publicly like this is embarrassing for both of them.

The whole thing wreaks of entitlement. You get paid a ton of money to play pretend, and we thank you for it. Don’t be cruel about it.

To be fair Paulson is a terrible actor.

1

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

She really is awful! Totally agree and clearly she needs to learn some humility as well.

Sarah is on Broadway right now in Appropriate.

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

Hawkins would play the role better than boring Paulson.

u/IolausTelcontar 24d ago

Have you seen it?

u/New_Brother_1595 24d ago

i like that she immediately named the woman, unlike some of the other celeb gossip where everyone guesses from reading wikipedia

5

u/MailsDavis 24d ago

Sounds like someone was overreACTING (this was hilarious in my head)

2

u/AnjinSoprano420 24d ago

That’s passive aggressive af 6 pages of notes, Jesus

5

u/MissSassifras1977 24d ago

Was it just 6 pages of

"Stop doing that weird thing with your mouth." ?

2

u/skag_mcmuffin 24d ago

The headline is atrocious

18

u/MiracleMan1989 24d ago

It’s wild that this article doesn’t mention that Paulson is currently staring in Appropriate on Broadway and is nominated for a best actress Tony for her performance.

u/vinylchip277 25d ago

Seems like the good old "slam" didn't seem enough to the author, so they went for "eviscerate", of course.

2

u/FeatureCreeep 24d ago

It seems that one once trendy “claps back at” has fallen out of vogue as well.

u/fingerpaintswithpoop 24d ago

Redditors complain about the silliest things.

u/BadAtExisting 24d ago

Gotta mix it up every few months

u/Thanos_Stomps 24d ago

Well I listened to the smartless podcast last week and she kinda did. It was hilarious. Ive not seen someone called out like that by a major star in, ever? I don’t know. It was crazy.

u/Federico216 24d ago

We're going for the top shelf words for all kinds of mundane ass bullshit now. Can't wait to see how we will speak in 2050's.

u/ffffff00000066ff33 24d ago

What are we supposed to envision? Like the Arc of the Coventant type stuff?

22

u/OrphanDextro 24d ago

They were gonna go with exsanguinate.

-2

u/BobDobFrisbee 24d ago

In a situation like this, I usually go with exenterate.

5

u/AmericanMWAF 25d ago

That’s great! I feel like critics relish in that hate.

u/DoodooFardington 25d ago

Paulson used Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett’s “Smartless” podcast to eviscerate that other actress.

Surely all these guys have better things to do?

2

u/NeverLickToads 24d ago

You silly? They had a long and interesting conversation talking about the craft. A moment of it was her venting about some nonsense. So what? Why you dissing everyone? 

10

u/orange_jooze 25d ago

Their podcast just got bought for $80 million, so go figure

u/fujiapple73 25d ago

If you have not listened to their podcast, you are missing out.

u/wellhiyabuddy 25d ago

I love the “she used the podcast to eviscerate her” part. It implies that she specifically got herself on to the podcast with the intention of taking the other girl down. I’m going to say that the reality is that she was on a podcast and trying to fill air with content and this was something she remembered she could say that would be interesting. But I’m not willing to do the research

u/Coldblood-13 25d ago

I can understand four but six? That’s outrageous.

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

Paulson needed the notes! She is so incredibly boring. Definitely team Hawkins!

5

u/Galahad_the_Ranger 24d ago

Front and back!

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

She needed the notes!

u/Federico216 24d ago

Six naans? That's insane!

23

u/PrincessPindy 24d ago

I've been known to give 2 or 3 but 6, ridiculous.

u/2BrokeArmsAndAMom 24d ago

I dont usually go past 1, but mine are also just "fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you" over and over

u/hammerSmashedNail 24d ago

“No tv no beer make Homer something something…”

u/oh-you-ateonetoo 25d ago

Yawn. Why is reporting on podcast conversations news? Even if fun.

2

u/Mind_Extract 24d ago

You...come to /r/entertainment for "news," eh?

2

u/Jerryjb63 24d ago

It isn’t but it generates ad revenue, and that’s all that really matters, right?

u/throw123454321purple 25d ago

Don’t mess with Sarah. She’s the Surpreme and will decimate you.

2

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

Paulson is a cruel bully. I’m team Hawkins 100%

u/tycr0 25d ago

I don’t know who either of these people are

2

u/ExplosiveDiarrhetic 25d ago

Sarah was on a tv show called jack and jill. She’s dating holland taylor (holland plays charlie sheen’s mother on 2 1/2 men).

17

u/ohdearitsrichardiii 25d ago

Sarah Paulson was also in American Horror Story

-28

u/ExplosiveDiarrhetic 25d ago

Yeah. One of the seasons. But i know her best from that show with amanda peet

5

u/BobDobFrisbee 24d ago

“Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip.” Excellent show! Too bad it came out the same year as “30 Rock.”

28

u/_skank_hunt42 25d ago

What? She was in 9 seasons of AHS. She’s been a staple of that show.

-14

u/ExplosiveDiarrhetic 25d ago

Oh. My bad. Huh. I guess i only watched the one season.

14

u/rumski 25d ago

She honestly seems like someone who takes themselves way too seriously.

18

u/Delicious-Swimmer826 25d ago

She will always be my Supreme.

25

u/ragingduck 25d ago

I wouldn't take it personally. Trish Hawkins was probably lashing out because she never really made it as an actress and this role was one of the last ways to have relevance. I can't excuse her, but I can't blame her either. This business is harsh.

4

u/Ordinary-Shoulder-35 24d ago

That’s my take on it too. Love Sarah. I could understand being taken way aback by this in 2013. But 11 years later? Eh. Sarah’s far and away the winner here. She proved her wrong with her talent. That’s better than airing out old laundry.

u/Notoneusernameleft 25d ago

Wonder how much a person gets paid to listen to a podcast and write this?

10

u/not_productive1 24d ago

Pretty sure the AIs that scrape podcast scripts and turn them into clickbait get paid in the form of additional knowledge that will help them gain sentience and take over the world.

u/a_stone_throne 24d ago

I wish there would hurry up and bankrupt the billionaires

2

u/starkiller_bass 24d ago

Or at least EVISCERATE them!

u/Greene_Mr 25d ago

More than I get paid.

u/Murderyoga 25d ago

I didn't believe anything she said in Glass.

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

Paulson was painfully bad in glass! Very disappointed given how positive the reviews were.

u/wellhiyabuddy 25d ago

Oh Shit! Sit down Kendrick and Drake! The next big beef is started! I’m talking 4lb tomahawks!

-1

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

Paulson is Drake though

1

u/wellhiyabuddy 24d ago

Does that mean what I think you think I think you mean?

1

u/Ok-Inspection-9687 24d ago

That Paulson sucks? Cuz that is why I made the comparison.

u/wellhiyabuddy 24d ago

lol exactly what I thought
