Wernick adds, laughing, Perhaps The Real Egomaniacs Here wouldve been better.
[Beware of spoilers beyond this point.]
Youre going to leave me all alone here with less-angry Rosie ODonnell?
My preferred choice wasCriss Angel, Mindfreak.
It was nonstop fun for everyone except the person on the brunt of the joke.
God Bless Gina Carano for being such a good sport, says Reese.
