The funny ladies of Hacks are back and serving up some glam at the season five premiere of Hacks. You probably didn’t even make it to the end of that sentence before scrolling down to see whatever the hell it is that Hannah Einbinder is wearing, but we are sober professionals here and we will scroll slowly, deliberately and with purpose.

HANNAH, NO! Continuing to scroll soberly and sedately…

This is fantastic. The lady knows how to do low-key, unfussy glam. Our only complaints are that it would look better with the jacket closed and that messy hairstyle doesn’t suit her. And now…

Man, that’s bad. It doesn’t suit her at all; an observation backed up by the near total lack of styling. And look, slapping on some colorful makeup and diamonds isn’t going to make this dress any less hideous, but it would at least feel like a total look. She looks like she’s trying this on for later. We can’t decide what’s the worst part; the 1980s bedroom color, the insipid little bows, or the scalloped bust. Hannah, you deserve better.
