Watch Hillary Clinton Make a Painful Cameo in the Season Premiere of Murphy Brown

 

The classic sitcom Murphy Brown made its return to television this week and its season premiere included a special appearance.

The scene begins with Murphy Brown (reprised by Candice Bergen) that she is interviewing a job applicant to become a secretary for the studio. Little did she know that the job applicant was none other than Hillary Clinton.

“Hello, I’m hear to interview for the secretarial position,” Clinton told a completely stunned Brown.

“God,” Brown reacted. “You look just like-”

“I know, Hillary Clinton. I get that a lot,” Clinton responded. “But my name is spelled with one ‘L.'”

The two of them then sit down, with Brown warning Clinton that it’s a “demanding job,” which didn’t scare the former Secretary of State, saying she isn’t afraid of hard work and that she’s “qualified and ready on Day One.”

“And I also assume you’ve had previous experience secretarial experience?” Brown asked.

“Absolutely,” Clinton replied. “For four years, I was the secretary… of a very large organization.”

“And you have all the requisite skills? Computer? Email?” Brown followed.

“Emails… I do have some experience with emails,” Clinton joked.

Brown called Clinton “impressive” and “maybe overqualified” and told her she had to think it over. And before leaving, Clinton gave Brown her business card, which had her email address.

“Hillary@YouCouldHaveHadMe.com,” Brown read from the business card.

The scene ends with Clinton smirking as the elevator doors in front of her.
