We all know that Ted Mosby was played by the sweet Josh Radnor, but he was not the first actor to be offered the role on How I Met Your Mother. The part was originally offered to Jason Biggs, but he turned it down.
“I was offered the role, and it’s probably my biggest regret, you know, on passing,” the American Pie star told SiriusXM’s The Covino & Rich Show. ”I think I was in a phase at the time, it sounds so, so obnoxious to say right now, but at the time, it was like, ‘OK, do I want to do TV?’ I don’t know that I was quite ready to go that route.”
Then he says shortly after he said no, two things happened. The show became a huge success, and he decided he wanted to do television shows.
While he regrets turning it down, he is happy with how his life is turning out. However, if he could go back in time, he would totally do the show.
The DJs also wanted to know if his American Pie lover Alyson Hannigan gives him crap about turning down the role. He says he doesn’t know if she knows that they almost played best friends on TV.
When it comes to if I think he would’ve been a good choice for the part? I am a Biggs fan, but he would have been too much. Neil Patrick Harris was the bigger than the life character, and the series only needed one them. It is better than Ted Mosby was played by someone who is a lot tamer and nebbishy. That is what made Radnor so endearing on the show.
What do you think it would have been like if Biggs played the lead on the sitcom?
Yesterday, The Rock was on The Tonight Show to talk about his bio-pictom Young Rock. Jimmy Fallon mentioned to his guest how good the casting is when it comes to the people who play his parents.
However, if his mother had her choice, she would be played by Jennifer Lopez. Personally, I think Ata Johnson is so much prettier on the inside and outside. Thus, I think that Stacey Leilua is a much better choice.
Don’t believe me that Ata deserves better than J-Lo? Then listen to her play a ukelele for the NBC late night host.
I think she and DJ should go on the road with their act. I would pay to see them singing together as she played the ukelele. Although, they should not have his youngest daughter, Tiana, do the setlist. It would be the same Mohana song over and over again.
Young Rock premieres this Tuesday on NBC at 8p. You don’t want to miss it because the series is as lovable as DJ.
The other day, WXYZ’s Nima Shaffe was going live, when he was interrupted by a kitty. The little guy had something to say, but the reporter kept ignoring him. Therefore, he kept meowing throughout the liveshot.
Well, of course, when the viewers heard the little guy’s squeaking, they wanted to know more about the cat who was making that sound. Therefore, the station went back to Shaffe, and he interviewed his subject. However, the alley cat didn’t want to share the spotlight, and kept trying to get the camera all to himself. But he did not succeed.
Instead, what the kitty will get is a new home. Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office called the Huron Valley Humane Society, and they picked up the baby feline. I am sure the meows man, will find his furever home real soon. Who wouldn’t want to adopt that sweet face?
I actually wish that the station would have adopted him and made him their own mascot. Let him run wild in the newsroom and be a part of the newscast. Who doesn’t need some cuteness when they spend most of their time talking about death and destruction.
The Netflix dramedy Grace & Frankie stars Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda. They are two-thirds of the leading ladies from the beloved movie 9 to 5. Therefore, fans of both have been wondering when Dolly Parton will join her partners in crime again, especially since the show is getting ready to tape its final season.
This morning when the Country legend was on Lorraine, and she let us know if it is doable. “I’ve been trying to do Grace & Frankie for years,” Parton said. “We’ve been trying to write me in somehow. When it is safe for us to do a production…I’ll probably get around to do that.”
There needs to be a way for them to make this happen. Maybe she can get into the sex lube and adult toy business with Grace and Frankie. It could be something that has to do with keeping someone tied up.
Now, can we talk about the three accents we heard during the interview? It was such a drastic difference between Lorraine Kelly’s Scottish accent, Barry Gibb’s Australian one, and Dolly Parton’s Southern drawl. So much so my ears were confused.
Have you ever wondered, is the plural of Lego, Legos or just Lego? I thought it was Legos, but when I did an internet search, I found out it is just Lego.
Seth Meyers called them Legos on Late Night, and fans corrected the NBC host. He responded by saying it is too late to teach him new things. Therefore, he will continue to call them Legos.
Well, Lego responded to all of us, and all of us are wrong. The plural is Lego Bricks. 🤯
I don’t know how to handle this new piece of information. It is a total gamechanger. I feel like I stepped on a bunch of Lego Bricks without anything covering my feet. In other words, I just need some alone time to soak it all in. Does someone have some Lego Bricks I can play with to make everything feel like it did before I knew this fact?
