It turns out that hitting an iceberg is not the worst thing that Captain Victor Garber can hit in Titanique.
The actor wrote on social media, “Serving face, literally!
“In Thursday’s showstopper moment, I launched the wheel into the air… and my nose caught it before my hands did! Turns out, being gay doesn’t give me catching superpowers. So, I gave myself a little ‘ouchie’ (okay, maybe a concussion) Out of the show ’til tomorrow. Catch you soon, my loves!”
Just like Céline Dion sang in Titanic, his heart will go on. Well, actually, his head will because the captain will go down with his ship.
Do you know what CBS needs? They need another NCIS, just like Elon Musk needs more money. They don’t. But that is not stopping them from making another one. So this season, we are getting NCIS: NY.
CBS has already announced that NCIS: LA’s LL COOL J and Hawaii Five-O’s Scott Caan are going to star in the eighth NCIS. Today, they announced that Jennifer Beals of The L Word will be joining them.
Beals plays Assistant Special Agent in Charge Robyn Wells, the director of the NCIS New York field office who leads with her intuition and is widely respected by her team.
The new series will focus on legendary NCIS Special Agent Sam Hanna (LL COOL J) who returns to his hometown of New York City to the NCIS field office, partnering with a roguish agent (Scott Caan) and helping lead a new team as they are tasked with high-stakes missions to defend one of the most vital cities and ports in the world.
Mariska Hargitay has been nominated for an Emmy nine times and won once. This year, the National Academy of Arts & Sciences is giving her a different honor. They asked her to host television’s biggest night, and she said, “YES!”
“Bringing important stories into the light has been the heartbeat of my career. It’s my great honor to host the 78th Emmy Awards — in the 100th birthday year of my beloved NBC — and celebrate this extraordinary community of storytellers,” said Hargitay. “Whether it’s an actor or a director, a costumer or a sound designer, we are all so privileged to take part in creating television that unites us. Regardless of how, where or when we watch, we are together in our laughter, our tears, our love of stories — and our delighted anticipation to see what happens next.”
I have to admit, I find her an odd choice, given that NBC is full of Saturday Night Live alumni, including Tracy Morgan, Jimmy Fallon, and Seth Meyers, who have their own shows on the network. But then again, who doesn’t love Mariska? I am sure she will do a great job.
The nominations will be announced tomorrow, and the winners will be announced on September 14th.
