TV Guide reports that Aaron Sorkin (Sports Night, The West Wing, Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip) will be returning to television: Sorkin tells TVGuideMagazine.comthat – like his previous series Sports Night (set around an ESPN-style sports news show) and Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip (set around a Saturday Night Live-esque sketch comedy show) – [...]
Shepard confronts the behind-the-scenes puppeteer “Elusive Man” who blends the habit of Cigarette Smoking Man from The X-File s with the look of Alec Baldwin in 30 Rock — and the voice of President Bartlet from The West Wing . (more…)
Aaron Sorkin--who brought us the reliably Democratic The American President, The West Wing, and Charlie Wilson's War -- has spent the last couple years working on adapting odd-ball non-fiction to the silver screen: He wrote the Facebook movie and the...
Martin Sheen and Stockard Channing who played President Jed Bartlet and First Lady Abbey Bartlet on The West Wing urge support for passage of the health care reform bill tomorrow (video above). Somehow I don’t think there’s much of a chance that Crazy Pete will change his vote if I call his office.
To those that say it’s waaaaaay to early to be proclaiming our favorite show of 2009 2010, this TV Addict says: Have you met the titular characters of the Mat Nix’s (BURN NOTICE) new hour-long FOX action comedy hybrid JACK AND DAN? Because according to The Hollywood Reporter, joining Bradley Whitford’s (THE WEST WING) drunken, [...]
I have to be honest, the more I think about Tony Blair as EU President, the more I like it. Love it, even. Deep down, I think we can all admit that we've missed him dearly. I don't know how likely the eventual appointment is but Gordon Brown looks reasonable in maturely campaigning for Tony Blair to be EU President while David Cameron's comments will surely be seen as childish. To reduce the former...
RIP Larry Gelbart (1928-2009) I had the amazing pleasure of being able to work with Larry Gelbart this summer on his last project before he died last month at the age of 81. I was asked by a casting director that cast me in Without A Trace if I would participate in a reading of Larry’s new television pilot at the Writer’s Guild. He said it would be a day of rehearsal and a day of performance...
Filed under: Other Comedy Shows , Programming , Celebrities , Reality-Free I was looking forward to Matthew Perry's new Showtime show The End of Steve , a drama about a radio talk show host. Unfortunately, Showtime wasn't looking forward to it as much as I was and didn't pick up the show. Instead, Perry is going to produce, co-write, and star in a new comedy about a sports arena manager who finds...
With 3-D all the rage, MGM announced over the weekend that Joss Whedon’s original thriller, The Cabin in the Woods , will be delayed from February 5 2010 to January 14 2011 to allow it to be upgraded to a three-dimensional chiller. According to Shock Til You Drop , the film, co-written and directed by Drew Goddard ( Cloverfield ), will require six months for the conversion. The movie stars Bradley...
Let me start by confessing that every morning, I watched Bravo's back-to-back episodes of The West Wing . That means I get a dose of Bradley Whitford every weekday. Then, there's Burn Notice , created by Matt Nix . I don't miss any of those shows either. So, the news that Bradley Whitford is signed for Jack and Dan , Matt Nix's new series for Fox, was happy indeed. My reaction was enthusiastic optimism...
I LOVE The West Wing! Since I can't seem to write anything I like here, I'm referring you all to a show where the writing was spot-on every week. This clip requires no prior knowledge of the series except that Martin Sheen plays the president and Rob Lowe's character was mad they were out of crab puffs by the time he and the rest of the President's staff got to this reception. (Forgot about the funny...
