After viewing the first two episodes of Bravo's new scripted series, Odd Mom Out, we officially want to be best friends with Jill Weber (the lead character played by show creator Jill Kargman[1])—and not just because we eat at the same diner (holla Midnight Express!). We've found our TV soul mate in Jill because, in a sea of Upper East Side mom-bots consumed with weekend nannies, vacation homes, and invented charities, she's a hilarious breath of fresh of air just trying to make it through the day with pants on. Here are eight more reasons from the series premiere that prove we're meant to be BFFs...
1. Her first language is sarcasm. Prime example: "We summer on 61st Street between Second and Third," she responds to a fellow UES mom lamenting how difficult it is to keep track of all her summer homes.
2. Her pre-school age daughter describes her as loving "tattoos, underwear dance parties, and bad words." The Upper East Side crowd is horrified for her; while we're like 'when can we hang out?'.
3. She introduced us to "thass." "Thass: thigh plus ass equals thass," she explains, giving us the perfect term for our most hated problem area.
4. She eats carbs, including bread and donuts (a.k.a. "gay bagels"), while her UES compadres treat any starch like it's been licked by someone with the bubonic plague. We'd never turn away the bread basket with you, Jill.
5. Her T-shirt game is on fleek. Case in point: See above. Another favorite was the one branded with "I Love Sleep."
6. She perfectly captured our relationship with spinning, after attending the fictional Soul Wheel for her sister-in-law's self-serving charity event. During class: We hate our lives. Immediately after class: We love our lives! Day after class: We hate our lives again—and can.not.walk.
7. She's not immune to spa treatments. When Jill's in-laws want her to get on board with changing their name from Weber to "von Weber," they whisk her away to an elite Manhattan day spa. We get it—we'd do bad, bad things for a glorious foot massage.
8. Three words: Underwear Dance Party. Again, when can we hang out?
We're dying to see more of Jill's antics throughout the rest of season one, and we'll continue to plot how we can become real-life best friends. Odd Mom Out airs Mondays on Bravo at 10 P.M.
