DVD Playhouse--July 2009

DVD Playhouse—July 2009

By

Allen Gardner

Do The Right Thing: 20th Anniversary Edition (Universal) Spike Lee’s groundbreaking fable about race relations in an ethnically mixed Brooklyn neighborhood during a sweltering New York summer remains as potent, timely and prescient as it was in 1989. Lee is among the cast, which also includes John Turturro, Danny Aiello, Samuel L. Jackson, Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee, and Rosie Perez (to name a few), that provide the tableaux-like framework for this stunning work. Criminally ignored by Oscar (it wasn't even nominated for Best Picture, but did garner nods for Supporting Actor Danny Aiello and Lee’s screenplay), it endures as a timeless classic. Also available on Blu-ray disc. Bonuses: Commentary by Lee, Ernest Dickerson, Wynn Thomas, Joie Lee; Documentary; Deleted and extended scenes; Featurettes. Widescreen. Dolby and DTS 5.1 surround.

Inside track: Emmy race for lead actor in a comedy

4 July 2009 6:58 PM, PDT | From Gold Derby | See recent Gold Derby news

Last year's champ, Alec Baldwin ("30 Rock"), will probably face off again opposite perennial nominees Steve Carell ("The Office") and Charlie Sheen ("Two and a Half Men"), who've never won, and three-time champ Tony Shalhoub ("Monk"). That means there will be room for two more nominees. If an Emmy god exists, one of the picks will be Jim Parsons ("The Big Bang Theory"). The other? Maybe David Duchovny ("Californication"), who was robbed of a bid last year. Lee Pace got nominated in 2008 but probably won't be back considering that the canceled "Pushing Daisies" has wilted.

** Nominee last year * Top 10 semifinalist in 2008 Lead Actor In A Comedy Series

(Front-runners)      

Alec Baldwin, "30 Rock" ** (Winner, 2009)

Zach Braff, "Scrubs"

Steve Carell, "The Office" **

Kevin Connolly, "Entourage"

David Duchovny, "Californication" *

Johnny Galecki, "The Big Bang Theory"

'The Guild' Going for Three

5 May 2009 3:17 PM, PDT | From CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news

Microsoft has committed to funding a third season of Felicia Day's Internet video series, The Guild.

Day created The Guild in 2007 and delivered a first season, online only, that was supported by an audience willing to compensate the filmmakers through PayPal contributions. Last year, Microsoft and Sprint jumped on board the project. Sprint is also returning as sponsor for the third season.

The partnership gives Microsoft first distribution rights to air episodes of The Guild on Xbox 360 and MSN's Live Marketplaces and on Microsoft's Zune media player.

Day is again writing and starring in the 12-episode third season. Production is expected to start in June. Day said she plans to promote the new season at Comicon in July.

Day, also an actor, has guest starred on House, Monk, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She also appeared in the 13-episode of Joss Whedon's Dollhouse that Fox decided not to air,

USA Hands Out a Series Order for White Collar

24 April 2009 5:51 AM, PDT | From MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news

USA Network has added another series to its growing lineup. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the network has issued a series order for White Collar.

The series, created by Jeff Eastin, revolves around the odd-couple pairing of a con man (Matthew Bomer) and the head of the FBI's white-collar crime unit (Tim DeKay). Tiffani Thiesen and Willie Garson will also star in the series.

The series was given a 13-episode order, along with the 90-minute pilot, and it was said that the show could be paired with Psych, since its lead-in show Monk is going into its final season.

Catching Up With... Felicia Day

22 April 2009 7:30 AM, PDT | From Pastemagazine.com | See recent PasteMagazine news

As a television actress, Felicia Day's biggest roles have included eight episodes on Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer and single guest spots on shows like House and Monk. So if there's any question as to whether acting for the computer screen can lead to stardom, one need look no further than Day's 422,000 followers on Twitter. The mathematics/violin performance major at The University of Texas has starred in two of the biggest Internet series, Whedon's Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, where she was caught in a love triangle with Neil Patrick Harris and Nathan Fillion, and her own creation, The Guild. The latter was pitched as a TV pilot, but the networks saw the idea of a beautiful girl's addiction to online gaming as too niche for broadcast. She boiled it down into three-minute segments for online viewing, and it's since won multiple awards and millions of fans.

Are Amy Poehler and Tina Fey secretly channeling Valerie Harper and Mary Tyler Moore?

10 April 2009 4:24 PM, PDT | From Gold Derby | See recent Gold Derby news

Are you among the viewers who felt, like some TV critics, that the pilot episode of "Parks and Recreation" didn't live up to its promise? Relax. Give these proven geniuses a break. "Parks and Recreation" is by the same wizards who gave us "The Office" (Greg Daniels and Mike Schur) and "Saturday Night Live" (the white-hot Amy Poehler) — who need a little time to tinker with the gears of their Porsche. TV series with this potential payoff don't come around very often. It's worth hanging in there to see where this baby goes — and how fast it takes off. I have a hunch it will. Let's assume it does and then let's assume Amy Poehler gets nominated for best comedy actress this year at the Emmys. There's a very good chance that could happen considering that the contenders will be chosen by a popular ballot and the number of nominees

Sharona's returning to USA's 'Monk'

26 March 2009 11:28 PM, PDT | From Hitfix.com | See recent Hitfix news

  USA Network confirmed on Thursday (March 26) that Bitty Schram will return to "Monk" for its eighth and final season. It won't be a long return, though, for Schram's Sharona. The character is only slated to guest star on a single episode. Sharona was the nurse and Girl Friday to Tony Shalhoub's Adrian Monk for the show's first three seasons. Schram and the show parted ways due to a contractual dispute. Since leaving the show, Schram has appeared on episodes of "Kitchen Confidential," "Thief" and "Ghost Whisperer." On "Monk," it was said that Sharona moved back to New Jersey with...

Monk: Sharona (Bitty Schram) Returns for Last Season Episode

26 March 2009 11:49 AM, PDT | From TVSeriesFinale.com | See recent TVSeriesFinale news

USA's Monk may be leaving the air after its eighth season wraps up, but there is a bit of good news in store for longtime fans.

Monk centers on Adrian Monk (Tony Shalhoub), a brilliant San Francisco detective who has a breakdown following his wife's murder. After a three-year absence, Monk returns to the force to help do what he does best: solve crimes. Of course, for someone suffering from severe Ocd, that's no easy task -- but it's usually Monk's Ocd that ends up helping him solve the case. Series performers also include Jason Gray-Stanford, Ted Levine, Traylor Howard, Stanley Kamel, Bitty Schram, Emmy Clarke, Kane Ritchotte, and Hector Elizondo.

The show premiered in 2002 and was a surprise hit for the USA Network. One of the most endearing aspects of the show was the close relationship between Monk and his practical nurse/assistant, Sharona Flemming (Schram).
