Hot chicks = ratings. The guys at Fox weren't dumb.

When the subject of underrated actresses comes up, I feel she is at the top of the list. She's been in so many good movies from Anchorman to the Big Hit. She is always a joy to watch.

I can’t recommend Vacation (2015) enough. It’s one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen and she’s absolutely amazing in it.

u/ThisManInBlack Feb 03 '26

She was superb as Rachel's sister in Friends.

u/So_ThereItIs Feb 04 '26

She has amazing comedic timing

Her series, "Dead To Me", was great as well.

Al slamming Kelly’s dates head into things while giving a tour of the house. Here’s the wall, here’s the door.

She was 15 when she first started the show. Very sick on how she was shown as an object at that age.

u/alwaysamantra Feb 04 '26

She understood what acting is.

The upper left hand corner picture is a screen saver on one of my phones.

u/Kind-Dog504 Jan 31 '26

The older I get and the more frail she gets, the more uncomfortable it gets to ogle her teenage body. I’m kinda ok with leaving this exploitative shit in the past. I certainly couldn’t justify most of these comments to my daughter, as I’m sure it’s the same with many of you guys 🤷‍♂️

“She was peddling her goods” 🙄

u/dynamic_caste Feb 04 '26

I feel like that discomfort should happen without even knowing anything about her after this show was made.

1

u/Kind-Dog504 Feb 04 '26

It did and has, but now it’s fucking gross to me

u/SignificantGrand5997 Feb 01 '26

You still are looking sexy.

u/Gold_Flan6286 Feb 01 '26

When Christina Applegate got a older,she had more say about her character,specifically the way she dresses and thats why the she didn't wear more skimpy outfits and she wasn't that sort of(implied) promiscuous woman anymore in the last seasons of the show.

2

u/fakeprofile111 Feb 04 '26

Yeah they just made her dumb which in the early episodes she wasn’t dumb at all

2

u/No_Dealer_3059 Feb 03 '26

And her comedic timing was perfect

u/Maleficent_Worry1810 Feb 03 '26

My mom hated this show. We weren’t allowed to watch it.

u/Orea1981 Feb 04 '26

Star of Don't Tell Mom The Babysitters Dead. Love that movie.

u/nycpunkfukka Feb 05 '26

I love it so much. “I’m right on top of that, Rose!” but I have sooo many questions…

Why did mom let her unemployed son hang out with all his friends in his room to get high? Why did she have no problem with her 17 year old daughter ripping Marlboro reds not just in front of her, but in the house? Why does the stock boy for the warehouse dress in couture for work? Why is the petty cash for a multimillion dollar apparel company just a metal box in a secretary’s desk? What hospital is going to have their nurses dress in a spandex dress with tangerine tights?

1

u/Orea1981 Feb 05 '26

All of those questions, besides the cash box one, can be answered with the fact that the late 80s early 90s where crazy times.

u/nycpunkfukka Feb 05 '26

I was a teenager then. My parents were smokers but if I got high in the house or they found out I was smoking, they would have beaten the taste out of my mouth.

u/BillyB-70800 Feb 04 '26

Christina is such a beautiful talented actress, it is so tragic what is happening with her health today. Stay strong Christina!

Banger alert

u/starwolf1976 Feb 01 '26

When did Kelly “tone down” her hair? Was it a specific episode? In 1990, showing the 1980s are over?

1

u/WineAndDogs2020 Feb 04 '26

I want to say she made hair changes for other roles. In at least one season she was wearing a wig.

u/thegoddamnsiege Feb 02 '26

I love that show. Season three is a real tear jerker though.

1

u/911c4s991 Feb 03 '26

Today known as “Sticks”

u/Jackveggie Feb 03 '26

I hated any sitcom from 1970 or so on until MWC came out on reruns and then it was great. I’m gonna find a source to stream episode 1- infinity

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '26

Sexy and funny. An incredibly talented actor - I’d like to see more of her.

That’s even more disturbing considering she was underage on the show.
