The most hilarious thing about the whole busy bee incident is the fact that the dog didn't ever really seem to care about the bee in the first place. In the airport they were waving it in front of her - and she didn't even look at it.

"This is least like a bee of the ones we have here..."

This was really a great movie. If you've been to or watch the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show every year, you ABSOLUTELY have to see this movie. The depictions were spot-on accurate:

1) Fred Willard had the Joe Garagiola announcer routine absolutely nailed. The other, serious guy played off him perfectly too.
2) Parker Posey and Michael Hitchcock as the yuppie couple with Beatrice the Weimaraner that first saw each other at Starbucks - not the same Starbucks, but from two Starbucks across the street from each other. That whole scene "Busy Bee" scene from the hotel from where she threatened to report the maid to INS to when she went to the pet store to get the Busy Bee replacement was a riot.
3) Michael McKean and John Michael Higgins as Stefan and Scott, the gay couple who owned the Shih-Tsu. I'd read that Higgins actually showed dogs to research the role and won a few times. He totally had it down. He also had a lot of funny lines, like when Scott goes into the deli to get meat for the dogs, asks the butcher for a pepperoni and says "Can I just hold it?" Or when Stefan recounts how he met Scott.
Stefan: "Scott and the Borzoi had the same prance...it was like they were two members on the same body:
Scott: "I once knew a guy with two members on his body. We dated for like half an hour. It was EXHAUSTING."
4) Jennifer Coolidge as the lesbian Anna Nicole Smith character. How does she get her lips like that?

It was a little odd that the relatively flattest characters were the ones played by Christopher Guest and Eugene Levy, who wrote the movie.

Best in show....well I'll be danged. My wife keeps suggesting it and I keep shrugging it off, I'll have to give it a watch now. It would seem I should quit black balling so many of her picks. I'll be damned if 90% don't end up being good flicks, much to her delight proving me wrong BTW :)

Hotel manager: Okay, I have you down for a queen...
Scott: And just what are you suggesting mister?!

This thread seems to be missing posts. Either that or I'm insane. I remember commenting about the movie Drop Dead Gorgeous in here....but that whole conversation is gone?

You're insane :knob:

You're thinking of the Spinal Tap thread.
