‘I Love That For You’
Showtime’s I Love That For You finally unites the two most ebullient Saturday Night Live stars of all time, Molly Shannon and Vanessa Bayer. Created by Bayer and Jeremy Beiler, I Love That For You tells the story of Joanna Gold (Vanessa Bayer). As a teen dealing with leukemia, Joanna became obsessed with fictional home shopping network SVN and its most winsome host Jackie (Molly Shannon). Flash forward to today and a cancer-free Joanna chases her dreams of being an SVN host. She charms at her audition, but flails her first time on live camera. Horrified of being fired, Joanna claims she has cancer again and uses people’s pity as leverage at the network. I Love That For You is directed by Michael Showalter and produced by Jessi Klein. Basically, it’s a comedy nerd’s dream of a show.
