## Halle Berry

You are Halle BERRY, not Halle BIEBER.

## Allison Janney

Holy crap, Janney, your pants have more windows than an apartment building.

## Katharine McPhee

Oh, my God, it's like she's MAKING it show off her navel. You know how hardly anyone uses true cursive anymore -- or as Gilderoy Lockhart says, "joined-up writing"? I feel like hardly anyone uses joined-up dresses anymore.

## Katharine McPhee

It had potential, too, if it were a whole dress. But she looks like a commercial for the color wheel. "Don't be Pantone deaf."

## Anna Faris

I am not of the mind that white works very well on her, but whatever, I'll take it. It's fine. It's FINE. Don't spill anything.

## Josh Duhamel

I have no idea what he was doing there -- people smarter than I am will tell us in the comments -- but HELLO. Come more often.

## Morgan Freeman

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/wenn21349779.xml)

He produced "Madam Secretary," so of course, he had to put on his aviators and be Morgan F'ing Freeman.

## The Talk

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/wenn21349773.xml)

"YOU THINK BABA WAWA RETIRED, BUT THAT'S JUST WHAT WE WANT YOU TO THINK. STAY VIGILANT, WHOOPI."

## Mark Harmon

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/wenn21349762.xml)

I know it's been a long time since *Summer School*, but it still startles me that Mark Harmon is aging.

## Maggie Q, Dylan McDermott

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/spl758828_025.xml)

I like her suit. She's actually decent in the "Stalker" clip, too. Will we have a date, Q? WE'LL JUST SEE.

## Emily Wickersham

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/spl758828_007.xml)

I gather she is on NCIS: Original Flavor (aka New JAG). Her dress is kind of cute, and kind of adjacent to a maternity apron.

## Renee Felice Smith

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/wenn21349785.xml)

SHE is on "NCIS: The Second," and I find her outfit hilariously "Hey Guys Is This An Okay Zooey Deschanel Costume For Halloween?"

## Daniela Ruah

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/wenn21349782.xml)

And SHE is ALSO on NCIS 2.0, and her dress makes her torso look like a poorly masked vigilante on a fluffy kids' cartoon about owls who are spies. Does Special Agent Oso need a nemesis?

## Bebe Neuwirth

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/spl758828_017.xml)

She's in "Madam Secretary," which is a relief, because it means they can't suck her into "The McCarthys" as Laurie Metcalf's shrink Lilith. The memory of her from Cheers will NOT BE TAINTED.

[Fugs and Fabs: CBS UpfrontsHalle Berry just out-dueled Katie Cassidy for Worst Pants. As for what's on the network, it's all MYSTERIES all the time. Extant: This is a summer show. Halle Berry gets pregnant on a solo mission in space that had a very attractive secret she doesn't want anyone to know. Goran Visnjic plays her husband, who has made them a robot son. So it's alien babies mixed with artificial intelligence and a healthy dose of whether humanity is cruising for extinction. It could be worse? It MIGHT be worse, but at least it's a concept I can see playing out over, say, 10-13 episodes. Stalker: Maggie Q heads a unit tasked with investigating stalkers... and it will shock you to know that SHE HAS ALSO BEEN STALKED. Dylan McDermott is the cocky Cop With A Shady Past who comes to her unit and teaches her how to looooove. Or, you know, he just shows up and impresses her even though he's a man-whore. Scorpion: The smartest man in the world assembles a team of genius friends to help Robert Patrick and the government; also maybe makes inroads with Katharine McPhee in a bad wig (or at least I hope it's a wig). This one feels like Speed meets The Big Bang Theory, and turns INSANE toward the end when planes start flying into things, which is also kind of what I hope happens on The Big Bang Theory soon. Madam Secretary: Tea Leoni, a former CIA agent, gets recruited to replace a dead Secretary of State, and LET ME ASSURE YOU, her tough-talkin' non-glam demeanor is going to MAKE SOME WAVES. Sometimes when I watch Tea Leoni talk, it's like she's trying really hard to limit how much she actually opens her mouth. NCIS: New Orleans: I got about fifteen seconds into this and couldn't keep going. I quit right after Scott Bakula made some droll comment to Mark Harmon about how The Old Ways Still Work In N'Awlins. I'm out, although to be fair, I was never going to be in. The McCarthys: This Boston family just can't seem to stay out of each other's business!!! And one of them is GAY!!!!! Loud laugh track, overly shouty performances, stilted staging, and Laurie Metcalf. \[Photos: Getty, Splash\]![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/wenn21349745.xml)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fugs-and-fabs-cbs-upfronts-05-2014/)
