Tragically, tonight marks the season finale of The Rachel Zoe Project — a show that some believe rivals Mad Men in terms of quality and thoughtfulness. I must say that I sort of fell in love with this series this year, but not because it’s really any good. I just think it’s the richest source of comic material since perhaps season two of The Hills.
Nevertheless, imitating Rachel’s intonations and phrases has become a small hobby of my friends and I, and the other night, jash and I engaged in such mockery on IM. Now, I really don’t like when bloggers post their IM conversations because they are invariably never as entertaining to readers as they are to the writer, but I’m hoping this may be an exception to the rule. After the jump, check out our Rachel Zoe conversation. The copy and paste omitted our IM names, but oddly enough, it actually works better if read as one long stream of Rachel Zoe consciousness.

You sure that’s not just a copy of a script?
I want the last 13 minutes back
3 minutes reading this nonsense
10 minutes to post my comment
ditto Jane.
I, for one, laughed. Maybe it’s cos I WANT to have RZ convos but have no one else who watches it, or maybe it’s cos I can imagine you speaking this…either way, I literally laughed. Bet you could get this onto off-Broadway…
i, for one – maybe two, thought this was brillz.
bra-vo.
As far as rich comic material how could you ever forget your Laguna Beach recaps on tvgasm – quite possibly some of the most hysterical things I’ve ever read. That’s where I first “met” you and I’ve been hooked ever since – I’m so glad we share a fondness for the same tv programming.
Yikes! The haters are out in droves on the site lately!
I thought this was hilarious!
