Quotes:

Harry Goldenblatt: Oh, I get it. We got kind of an ass-white couch situation here.

Linda was not on it

Hi! This comment is not about the series nor this episode, I'm just writing because I expected to see Linda Evangelista playing the saleswoman. I waited till the end of the episode just to see that, in fact, the actress who plays that role is not Linda. Sure, she is a model (I've seen her on some magazines) and actually she really looks like Linda, but there are plenty of models who look like Linda just because she was one of the best models of the 90's. If you read the end credits you'll see her name is Greta Cavazzoni. I wonder why the guys at IMDb had mistaken this, and what Linda or Greta would be thinking about this if they knew... funny, isn't it?
