At the risk of overdoing our love for Amy Schumer, whose Comedy Central show returned last night with an almost flawless string of hilarious, incisive sketches, here’s the one with the most star power and the most pointed message. In this sketch, Schumer happens upon Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Tina Fey, and Patricia Arquette having a picnic to celebrate the death of Louis-Dreyfus’ sex appeal. “In every actress’s life, the media decides when you finally reach the point where you’re not believably fuckable anymore,” Louis-Dreyfus patiently explains to a confused Schumer.
It’s a fairly straightforward takedown of Hollywood’s blatant double standard when it comes to men’s and women’s roles, but it’s peppered with sharp one-liners about hypothetical film projects that are absurd but not entirely unbelievable—like, for instance, Jennifer Lopez getting cast as Mrs. Claus.
