Odd that this gem was left out of Ebert's Overlooked Film Fest. | I should have known that that earlier report of Tori Smelling's fall sitcom was a sign of bad things to come. Check out these her-end-dusly proposed crop of new shows headed for cancellation this fall:
- a 4th Law & Order and a 3rd CSI. PLEASE, STOP!!!
- a Macaulay Culkin shitcom about a brother and sister reunited after growing up in different foster homes. BORRRRRRRRRRRING!!
- Chris O'Donnell in somethang called The Amazing Westerbergs. What's amazing is that the boy wonder is still employed.
- Ricki Lake stars as a single mom who runs a bar. Sometime the bar eats you and sometimes Ricki Lake will eat the bar.
- The American version of The Office. Can't be good. I scream Blasphemhy!!
- Apparently Major Dad, Gerald McRaney, has been demoted to Commando Nanny. Maybe there'll be a movie (ala Freddy vs. Jason) where he'll square-off against Hulk Hogan's Suburban Commando.
- D.O.T.S, a comedy about meter maids. 5 bucks sez one of the character's name is Lovely Rita.
- Jeff Goldblum is a financial consultant in therapy. Golblum + anything = CHAOS (theory)
- Hub, a drama about an airport with Heather Locklear. This may turn out to be better than that new Speilbergo/Hanks shitflick (please, do yo self a favor and watch the trailer).
- Worst Irony Award: Blind Justice, about a seeing-impaired cop.
- Jason Alexander plays writer and popular ESPN commentator Tony Kornheiser in a CBS project. Probably the only new show I'll end up TiVoing.
- A UPN drama about lesbian private investigators called Nikki and Nora. Hopefully taking hot baths together will help them gather all the clues they need.
- I saved the breast for last: a remake of Mister Ed with MIA Twin Peaks uber-hottie, Sherilyn Fenn and George Jefferson. Wow, looks like originality is at all time high.
