Eileen (Angelica Huston) insists on a new name and star for the musical if they are to go forward. Karen (Katharine McPhee) lands a national commercial for orange juice, beating out Ivy (Megan Hilty) which, needless to say, irritates the hell out of her. Speaking of Ivy, she’s taking more medications than she should. Much to his chagrin, Tom (Christian Borle) learns John (Neal Bledsoe) is a Republican, which throws a kink into their relationship. Plus, Frank (Brian d’Arcy James) has a showdown with Michael (Will Chase) after finding out about Julia’s (Debra Messing) affair with him. Once again, we find ourselves in the middle of a soap opera-ish episode but that’s ok, I like it; "Hell on Earth" keeps my interest as we delve deeper into the characters’ personalities.
