It’s been two and a half years since the last episode of Fox’s thriller television series “24,” but the show is evidently still fresh on liberal comedienne and former “24″ star Janeane Garofalo’s mind.
In an appearance on the January 3 episode of the “Going Off Track” podcast, Garofalo said show creator and executive producer Joel Surnow picked certain cast members to make liberals — particularly Hillary Clinton — look bad.
“That was actually a joke I think Joel Surnow was trying to plant,” Garofalo said. “He hated my politics and Air America. He’s a real right-winger. He actually worked with the Republican Party producing propaganda campaigns with them.”
On “24,” Garofalo played FBI agent Janis Gold, a character who would often voice displeasure with the use of torture as an anti-terrorism tactic.
“Actually, Rush Limbaugh and Lynne Cheney would visit the set and stuff like that,” she continued. “But he wanted to make me look like a weak ‘liberal’ on the show. My character got yelled at a number of times by [series protagonist] Jack [Bauer]. Then it got sidetracked by the writers’ strike. He didn’t get to play out the whole thing he had in mind for my character, because there was a writers’ strike. … Joel Surnow I think wanted to humiliate me.”(continued)

Janine and Hillary have cankles in common.
Posting those photos of Buffalobutt was just a ploy to frighten us, wasn’t it?
Well, it worked.
Why is that thing hired?
They tried to write her into the Seinfeld script as his girlfriend once. That lasted through about three commercials.
Par for the course for her. Every show she’s on, the producers are personally out to get her. In his book about his time on “Saturday Night Live,” Jay Mohr describes how she wouldn’t work with the writers to come up with sketch ideas and compete to pitch them, like everyone else did. But when she didn’t get enough air time to suit her, she complained to the media about how the people on SNL were all sexists who didn’t want to put women on the air.
Oddly enough, immediately after she left, Cheri Oteri, Molly Shannon and Ana Gasteyer all came on the show and became major players with a lot of air time, despite being female. Of course, they were all actually funny, which is probably the real issue.
You could put that picture in the Dictionary, right next to “skank”.
Would Laz Hit-it ?
She could have just said: "No thanks".
The only way I would consider hitting that is with a double-tap.
Janeane Garofalo is a ploy to scare men into homosexuality.
Big 24 fan, and nearly forgot that idiot decorated a season.
I saw that episode. Don’t remember details, but Kilmeade did shred her IIRC.
About the time I was beginning to get disenchanted with Sean Vanity, but still hanging in there, I heard him one day broadcasting from the 2004 democrap convention. Vanity was interviewing all his “good friends” like Charles Rangel. On one occasion he managed to snare Jereen for an interview. It was painful to hear. He kept asking her, now that she had met him in person, to admit that he was not a bad guy. She finally kinda gagged out an admission that he was o.k. Probably drank a bottle of liquid Drano to cleanse her mouth once she got away from Vanity.
I thought the same thing. I suppose Surnow twisted her arm and made her sign a contract for millions. Maybe he waterboarded her. (snicker) But now I'll be sure to watch those episodes. It will be worth it seeing Garafolo looking like the inept liberal tool she is in real life.
One of my favorite themes of the show was CTU's medical. Once sent to that infirmary, a character's chances for survival were next to zero.
Looking at the photos pasted into this thread, it’s clear she was interested in having makeup applied professionally.
Shouldn’t this greasy tramp be thankful she had a job on a mainstream TV program in the first place?
What is she doing now? Disinfecting needles at the local tattoo joint?
The sad...and amazing...thing is that there was a time when she was beautiful.Bordering on stunning,in fact.Of course she's probably *always* been disease ridden and ugly on the *inside*.
Notwithstanding her weapons-grade moonbattery, there have been a few movies here and there that I liked Garofalo in.
That said, I see that I’m not the first person for whom “greasy” is the first thing I think when I see a picture of her. The poor dear just seems intrinsically unable to clean up nicely.
