That Time an Entire Country Made Fun of a 20Something Monica Lewinsky

... And Hillary Clinton pissed off Tammy Wynette. We're not gonna lie: Episodes 7 & 8 of Impeachment: American Crime Story (titled "The Assassination of Monica Lewinsky" and "Stand By Your Man") were tough to watch. But they're also the first time the show proved its need to exist. Giving Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp, and Hillary Clinton layers and nuances and showing how wide the chasm between their realities and the public's perception of them proved to be, these are powerhouse episodes of TV that all end in the same lesson: Men get to play semantics and smirk, while women get left out to dry. Plus Edie Falco is finally out of bed as Hillary and acting up a storm with her glass of red while Monica takes up handicrafts and Linda watches Saturday Night Live (don't do it, Linda!).
