Best Good Girl: Annie Edison, Community
Quirky, smart, funny Annie--what an interesting character. On paper she seems so unlikeable but her type-A compulsions are balanced by insecurity and innocence that make her endearing. At the same time, she has an aesthetic appeal that the men in her study group can't deny. I find the wardrobe choices for this character to be spot-on: prim cardigans over floral-print dresses, Annie's femininity is in stark contrast to Britta's overly-cool, feminista-chic jeans and t-shirts.
Best Over-the-top-Summer-Programming Wardrobe: The entire cast of Mistresses
First of all, the promos are hilarious: four hot women, arms around one another, walking on a beach and staring at the sunset as the wind blows their differently-colored gowns, and waves come crashing in. The show premiered this week, and fulfilled completely the ridiculous promise of its commercials. The show describes itself as "a provocative and thrilling drama about the scandalous lives of a sexy and sassy group of four girlfriends, each on her own path to self-discovery." This morning's Washington Post review of the premier describes it as, "a surfeit of glossy little passion plays about women in their late 30s or early 40s wearing designer heels and committing designer adultery." Hey, at least I'm not watching The Bachelorette.
