If you were to open a time capsule containing all the artifacts of the cynical postmodernism and depraved celebrity trolling of 1995 to 1998, you would also find a VHS tape containing all 3 seasons of The Naked Truth. Téa Leoni plays Nora, a recently divorced former photojournalist who, despite being only 26, was already nominated for a Pulitzer back before her controlling and two-timing wealthy ex-husband destroyed her career. Now she’s trying to rebuild her reputation, but the only job she can get is for a sleazy tabloid run by Holland Taylor’s ruthless Camilla. Brynn, Aaron & Barry hop a fence, pull out the telephoto lens and take a shot at figuring out why this show left the newsstands.
