High points:

- High/Low game.

- Betty White.

- Montage featuring the song "Classical Gas".

Low Points:

- Bad acting (Michelle Pfeiffer couldn't even shed a tear in what should have been the most emotional scene.).

- Bad writing (She couldn't shed a tear because the situation didn't seem real. People don't usually have elaborate speeches prepared every other second, and they certainly don't come up with them on the spot.).

- Rita Wilson (Noone gets that worked up over toilet paper, and it's very hard to start crying hysterically in the middle of a workout about someone else's marriage ending - they're called endorphins, they make you happy, and they're hard to overcome.).

Overall:

- I was expecting a LOT better.
