I think Christine Ebersole is a great singer but I dislike when shows do stuff like this. It always comes off as the actor/actress singing, not the character.
I think they did this once in the first season too, and it had the same effect.
Christine Ebersole's voice is way to good for this kind of thing——these out-of-nowhere of talent showcase bits never work well in the middle of a scripted show unless it's a guest star playing themselves.
If a main character is going to sing, and the actor has a heavenly voice, then the character needs to be a professional musician——not the founder of a sock empire.
And then Maribeth Monroe's singing as Christina wasn't really that bad. She should have faked doing it bad like Lucille Ball would have done. Just because Christine Ebersole is so awesome doesn't mean Maribeth Monroe can just sing her best in this role——I mean, unless we are *supposed* to be thinking: Hey. Christine's singing isn't half bad.
