Here is a budget saving tip for Salt Lake City real housewives. Replace Lisa Barlow and Whitney Rose with a woman: Vanessa Bayer. It doesn’t even matter that, as far as we know, she doesn’t live near Salt Lake City. She is ready. Bayer made an appearance in See what happens live with Andy Cohen promote Barb and Star go to Vista Del Mar, but she also showed her ability to spin convincingly Housewives whole cloth scenes, alone. In a segment called “Clubhouse Playhouse”, Bayer recreated an argument between Barlow and Rose from episode two and, oh my God, she gets their voices right. It turned a debate about free tequila into high comedy. She can and should replace at least a third of the homemakers on this program.
Bayer also dropped the smallest of the Saturday Night Live insight: Ryan Gosling was “so funny during the sketch” where they kissed, Kristen Wiig was the first person to say she was funny when she was still auditioning and Jacob, the Bar Mitzvah boy, is “so similar” to his own personality. The more you know!
