Hacks delivered some major fan service in the show’s latest installment which saw Deborah (Jean Smart) and Ava (Hannah Einbinder) attempt to win the good favor of a fellow comedian by posing as a lesbian couple.
In the episode, “Montecito,” Deborah catches up with her psychic as she orchestrates her MSG gig, and was told she would be wearing white for the event. Deborah surmised this meant a suit set previously worn by Carol Burnett. The catch? Fellow comedian Kelly Kilpatrick (Cherry Jones) was in possession of the outfit, and she has a long-running beef with Deborah for making jokes about her being a lesbian.
