IT WAS WITH TREMBLING FINGERS that Recharger dug this week’s issue of Time Out New York from a garbage can on Third Avenue, spine-thrilled with antipation for the Sandra Oh interview on page 72.Yet, the drums in his blood were quickly quieted by the Canadien Goddess’s bland comments on her smash TV show, Grey’s Anatomy. Though Oh expresses anger at not being allowed to have an abortion on TV (“You can’t even say the fucking word”), she quickly backtracks with “that doesn’t deny the exceptional power of the medium and what you can do in small steps that have a tremendous impact.”
Except that abortion has been big in movies and TV since Warren Harding was bonking his mistress.
Recharger would still cross frozen wastelands for one sniff of Sandra’s big toenail, and he generously assumes she was tired, or tummy-sick (weirdly, even though it was a phone interview, Time Out reported she was eating cheese toast), but he hopes, with his last doggy breath, that before the next interview, she loses the faux-outrage and gets really pissed--like when she flattened Thomas Haden Church’s nose with a motorcycle helmet. That was cool.
