Allison! Dunno if anyone has said it but you and Jim Parsons could play family of some sort in a movie or series etc…

She is a national treasure and even though I’m in my thirties, I still want to be CJ Cregg when I grow up.

Oh yeah let’s talk about Drop Dead Gorgeous, one of these teen irrelevant movies thats trendy on tiktok, because why would we talk about her incredible performance in the 5 Oscars masterpiece "American Beauty" 🙄
the fact you all always praise the movies who are trendy instead of the quality ones
this society is weird…

Drop Dead Gorgeous is one of my favorite movies (why is it never streaming in the US?!) and it is also where I met & fell in love with Allison Janney. She is such an incredible actress & she's just amazing in everything she is in. She steals every scene. It makes me so happy how much she loves Loretta & filming the movie. Now I'm going to go watch my DVD of Drop Dead Georgeous because it's the Most Smartest thing I can do 😊

I met Allison Janney at the stage door for 9to5 the musical in LA during its pre-Broadway run there. I worked up the nerve to ask her sign my playbill with “most smartest.” To my delight, she was thrilled to write that and laughed with joy that I wanted her to. She was so kind ❤

She lost me at comparing what’s happening in today’s government to a FICTIONAL television show. Bill Clinton was president when this show was on. How many times was he mentioned in Jeff E’s list??

Allison Janney hyping "Drop Dead Gorgeous" should help it get to streaming! Iconic film! Allison deserved 12 Oscars for it alone.
