On Sunday night, A Series of Unfortunate Events was up against Sesame Street, Carmen Sandiego, Songs of Parkland and Star Wars Resistance for Outstanding Children’s Program at the Creative Emmys. There could only be one winner and it was not Neil Patrick Harris.
A day after his loss he wrote, “A Series of Unfortunate Events lost at last night’s Emmys to Sesame Street. I’d say I was bummed, but Catherine O’Hara told me: losing an Emmy to ‘When You Wish Upon A Pickle’ is in many ways, a funnier way to end the story. I like that. #befitting #countolaf @netflix @TheEmmys”
Is it just me or does he sound bitter? He has 5 Emmys, how many more does he need? How many actors wish they had just one. He needs to remember that.
Mark Cuban was seen in handcuffs being escorted away by two police officers. Does that mean the mogul is going from the Shark Tank to the drunk tank? Nope, it was just Cuban, Nathan Fillion and Richard T. Jones having some fun behind the scenes of the season premiere of The Rookie.
You can see the Mavericks owner twice Sunday, September 29th on ABC. First on the business reality show and then on the police procedural. Where he might or might not be arrested.
Before George Wendt did whatever he did on Cheers, he was a salesman in Gift of the Magi. He looks the same now as he did when he was 31 in that 1980 short.
ABC found an interesting way to get us to watch their shows this season. Several of their series are staging reunions the week of October 7th.
For example, on October 9th, The Goldbergs is bringing Cheers’ Kirstie Alley, Rhea Perlman, John Ratzenberger and George Wendt to a bar again. Two days later, Diedrich Bader is reunited with his castmates, Drew Carey, Ryan Stiles and Kathy Kinney, from The Drew Carey Show. That Sunday, we get a Castle reunion on The Rookie when Nathan Fillion gets to see his old pals Seamus Deaver and Jon Huertas again. I wonder where Stana Katic is? Too soon?
We also will see reunions from Girlfriends, Charmed, Blues Brothers 2000, Wet Hot American Summer and Crazy Rich Asians.
To the executive who came up with this brilliant idea, I have two words for you. They are thank and you. I can’t wait to see all the reunions. Then again, I already watch most shows.
