i was surprised that i actually really liked this tbh-

shelley long was phenomenal in this and i won’t listen to any other opinions she was so underused by hollywood

side note there was this one scene like after their first movie came out where lucy’s outfit and hair was giving SO MUCH sally albright energy and it was amazing- sally albright before sally albright
