MOLLY SHANNON DEFENDS SARAH JESSICA PARKER AMID SATC FLAP: Sarah Jessica Parker may be feuding with former Sex and the City costar Kim Cattrall, but her current costar seems to adore her. “For me, Sarah is just so supportive and so wonderful and we just get along so well,” Shannon told Entertainment Tonight of her Divorce costar on Saturday. “We just get along so well. It doesn’t really feel like work because we have so much in common, and she loves funny women and is just so genuinely supportive and kind, and like a girls-girl. I just feel lucky that I get to work with her.” Cattrall, meanwhile, has been lashing out at Parker for being a “hypocrite” for sending her condolences over her dead brother, and even accusing her of ” exploiting our tragedy in order to restore your ‘nice girl’ persona.” Andy Cohen also came to Parker’s defense, saying on his radio show: “She expressed her condolences on the post … I would not call that exploiting a tragedy. What was she supposed to do? Say something bad? I don’t understand.”

NBC’s like, ‘You know who we didn’t like? Jim.’” But hope isn’t lost yet. He told DeGeneres that if he did get that call, “Oh my god, are you kidding? I’d love to get that gang back together.” Hear that NBC?
