Sassy Secretary: Difference between revisions

* Vicki Lewis ("Beth") on ''[[News Radio]]'' reportedly feuded with Kathy Griffin because of her similar redheaded character on ''[[Suddenly Susan]]''. It is worth noting that Griffin's character, while a complete ripoff of Lewis's from the standpoint of personality, is not actually a secretary.

** And Vicki Lewis is actually talented and funny.

'''Beth:''' Tell me about it. }}

** She shouldn't have been so upset about one character being like her character, so much as for most of [[The Nineties]] approximately 80% of the shows on NBC were about [[Follow the Leader|single people working at a media outlet in a big city]]. They all had a character that was exactly like hers.

* Whenever Picard adopts the persona of Dixon Hill in the holodeck on ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'', he gets his own [[Sassy Secretary]].

* A rare male example: Dennis Finch (David Spade) on ''[[Just Shoot Me]]'' (though he denies being a secretary, at least at first).

** Oddly enough, Russell Dunbar (also Spade) has his own rare male example, Timmy, on ''[[Rules of Engagement]]''.

* John Inman in ''[[Take A Letter Mr Jones]]''

 

* Eva from ''[[Grim Fandango]]''.

'''Eva:''' It's my boss's whipping boy, Manny. }}

 

'''Eva:''': No, calls stopped coming for you the day you left. They're STILL sending you that lingerie catalog, though. }}

 

'''Eva:''': I'd have more work to do if you had more clients. }}
