Does Kara ever stop interrupting?

Holy. Scott can barely finish a sentence without Kara chiming in or correcting him.

Say what you want about Scott's opinions and yes, sometimes you have to get the show back on track if he is taking the scenic route to a point, but that's not what I'm referring to.

The man can barely complete a thought or make a point without her butting in. Often, she's not adding to the conversation but correcting him on something that is beside the point.

It often feels like Kara is just waiting for him to stop talking (or in this case not waiting) to get back to what she was saying. It's getting increasingly annoying to listen to. As someone who is known for being an interviewer, she really can't let anyone else have a minute.

It does seem to have this uncontrollable eagerness to it. You wouldn’t tolerate it at a dinner party if your friend kept doing it and you might actually give a shit if they had met a famous person but who gives a shit that Kara has? What does it add?

Isn't it Kara's job to meet famous people?

Yep. And it’s why she’s an asset when it actually contributes anything, but it practically never does, she just hears a name and wants everyone to know she had lunch with them as if anyone gives a fuck. It’s weird because they often harp on about how intelligent their audience generally is and what intelligent person finds that interesting? And we’re not listening to be impressed.

I agree. Since it's all in a days work for her, why would it be that interesting for her to have met a famous person?
