Dixie Carter goes off on a pageant bimbo in a DESIGNING WOMEN episode. I never cared for show and couldn't understand why the reptilian Dixie never favored eye make-up, but she works it in this clip.
I never liked that show, and I dislike Dixie as much for her grating acting style as for her off-screen Republican politics. Lifetime plays DesWo back to back w/ the Golden Girls, like it's some kind of gay hour of power. Designing Women _wishes_ it could get within a mile of the Golden Girls, qualitywise. It cannot!
I used to think Dixie was a scream in the first season, and that rant (which WAS from the first season) was one of my favorites (that, and "I want to thank YOU, Ray Don!") However, the whole "soapbox-rant" thing got REAL old, REAL fast...and she just sounded like a bitch after a while.
(I got tired of hearing about her fucking yoga, too...)
