I think Kathy Bates.
Mark A. JohnstonHOST

Mark A. JohnstonHOST
And I'd like to volunteer us as consultants.
Jimmy MulvilleHOST
For the majority of female characters, foregrounds their appearance, whereas males are able to credibly age into positions of personal and public power, normalizing the perception that men are naturally more powerful than women.
Jimmy MulvilleHOST
Fully realized older female leads, e.g. Kathy Bates in Matlock or Jean Smart in Hacks, which is really good, they remain the exceptions.
Jimmy MulvilleHOST
They're not the rule.
Peter FinchamHOST
This sounds like a conversation you could have had 30 or 40 years ago.
Alonso DuraldeHOST
So, I mean, obviously, you know, Sinners notwithstanding, I think that's changing more.

Oh.

Angela
George BrandenburgHOST
Bassett and Kathy Bates are just having the times of their lives on this project.
George BrandenburgHOST
And I just I'm so happy for them for that.
LizaHOST
I don't care.
LizaHOST
It would not have worked without Kathy Bates.
LizaHOST
Yes.
LizaHOST
No one who could have done that, that because honestly, do you care about James Caan in that movie? Cause I don't, I don't care.

Ashley MayesHOST
going the back and forth on the, yeah, I could see where people would do that, but.
Jake MayesHOST
That's fair.
Rebecca SiegelHOST
She had very soft features, sort of a fuller figure, and downturned dark eyes.
Rebecca SiegelHOST
Her celebrity lookalike is Kathy Bates as the unsinkable Molly Brown in Titanic.
Rebecca SiegelHOST
In the 1920s, Murrell kind of became a doctor to the stars, like his medical practice took in actors and athletes, stuff like that.
Rebecca SiegelHOST
I read one very mean comment that said that this was a crowd that could, quote, hardly be called critical or intelligent.
