*** This review may contain spoilers ***

I can't believe that no one has mentioned this before, but the SUPER small role of Brendan's friend, Hams, is played by Ryan Reynolds. Did they change his name in the credits as a goof as was his actually appearing on the show!?!?! Huh!?!........ Also, among the 4 girls that are mimicking the 4 ladies on "Sex in the City," Abigail Spencer (Lyssa) and Jillian Bach (Tina) both have had one-time appearances in the show "Gilmore Girls." Another weird thing is that Jillian Bach had a recurring role on Ryan Reynold's show "Two Guys, A Girl, And a Pizza Place." So - are these groups of actors friends or is it something like it dealing with the same casting company? Producer? Agents and/or managers? Huh!?!
