TV Guide: Aug 21-27

House Fox’s best new show in a long time is on the cover, specifically Hugh Laurie & Sela Ward with the title House Exclusive! The accompanying article is 7-pages long. Sela Ward has been hired for the next thirteen episodes of season 2, yes I know she’s a show killer but let’s hold out hope. The producers vow not to turn the drama into a soap opera but they want more sex. LL Cool J appears in the first episode as a dying criminal.
Hugh Laurie is happy to be in a California studio after his last movie “Flight of the Phoenix” that was filmed in an African desert. He did dread an auditioning process called “putting yourself on tape”; it requires an actor to commit a few pages on tape with only hope that whoever watches it is in a good mood. A few months later he gets a call back and auditions for Bryan Singer, weeks after that he gets the job.
During the pilot Laurie brought his own unique cane and broke it two days later, he also walked into a glass door. Everyone loved the pilot and the show was picked up for thirteen more then a full season worth of episodes. Season 1 House DVD is out and Hugh Laurie also has a novel called The Gun Seller.
Good Things To Read Inside:

  • Friday will have a Monk flashback episode to his youth.
  • Series Finale of Six Feet Under.
  • Kelly Martin is back in another Hallmark Mystery Woman
  • On the set of a Sopranos wedding.
  • David Boreanaz had an attitude about Angel with the producers of Bones, is Amy Grant fat I can’t tell because the picture is small not that I care if she is, the set of Two and a Half Men is full of farts, ex-General Hospital star Sarah Brown joins the cast of Cold Case, Greg Grunberg of Alias is quitting.
  • Susan Sarandon plays pranks on people in front of Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum in NYC.
  • More 9/11 documentaries, good!
  • Top ten scene stealers.
  • Top twenty catchphrases, No. 1 is wrong another show made it famous before Seinfeld, No. 6 is just dumb.
