Idle TV Thoughts

I know there still aren't that many people who've seen Popular (at the very least, I was pleasantly surprised by Leslie Grossman's cameo in the New Normal pilot, since none of the reviews I'd read mentioned it), but I'm kind of surprised that there isn't more Internet-talk regarding the journey from the Glamazons worshipping Gwyneth to the lady herself becoming an auxiliary member of the Ryan Murphy Players. Did he just sort of will their collaboration into being as an extra-vocal fan?
