Sad to hear about Fran Drescher. She did a good voice over in Hotel Transylvania, maybe she could do more.
ReplyDeleteshe always has great sitcoms, delightful nonoffensive, not stupid ones like most others, and yet they get cancelled even though they have audience around the world. Her previous sitcom LIVING WITH FRAN was also lovely.
DeleteSo sucks that they canceled Fran's show. Loved it. I laughed out loud and enjoyed the actors. Cannot understand why it's gone.
ReplyDeleteTotally bummed.
I hear they always do that at TV Land, kill the good ones, save the bad ones... They're cleaning some space for Kirstie Alley's new sitcom, but everybody says they should've killed SOUL MAN, not HAPPILY DIVORCED.
DeleteI never even heard of Soul Man.
Deleteme neither.... I only watch Fran and Betty White there :)
DeleteBetty White cracks me up.
Deleteshe's hilarious!
DeleteI have never seen Fran's show, but it always makes me wonder why they pull a good show that has a decent following. 2 seasons in and I'm sure it could have pulled in more viewers as time went on. I don't think I'll be watching Kirstie Alley's new show. For some reason, that woman irritates me to no end!
ReplyDeleteyep, especially since Fran is popular all over the world and her sitcom was sold in many countries. Most countries around the world prefer the kind of warm, family, nonoffensive humour as in her sitcom or in Tim Allan's shows...
DeleteWOW, I can't believe people would actually tune in to watch anything with Fran. I would rather poke a stick in my eye than watch the annoying Fran. Plus, you need an extra strength pair of ear plugs to drown out her offensive voice and laugh.
ReplyDeleteoh, puhlease, Debs :P Fran is such a delightful woman, and not just as an actress. She is ageing so gracefully and most ladies respect her for being a role model in that aspect.
DeleteObviously I'm in the minority Dezzy.
Deleteyou are sooo :P
DeleteThat is shocking that Happily Divorced has been cancelled!
ReplyDeletethe whole world is shocked!
DeleteOn the Milky Road sounds like a deeply moving film. Monica is quite a beauty and that outfit is gorgeous. Best wishes on a win at Cannes for this one!
ReplyDeleteyep, it will be visually stunning as well, last week they shot a scene at one of our mountains in which she runs over the hills in a wedding gown, dives into a lake and then turns into a butterfly :)
DeleteThat's poetry in film:)
Deletemost of his films are like that
DeleteHmmm, "Eat, Love, Pray" with camels?
ReplyDeleteand this actress is as irritating as that one was :)
DeleteMaybe Westword will be a HUGE hit, and Abrams can be persuaded to keep his hands off Star Wars. Yeah, probably not, but we can dream. :)
ReplyDeleteNow Tracks looks really interesting. Can't wait to hear more about that one.
I really don't know why he gets all the sf projects.... I didn't like what he did with this year's STAR TREK :( Ruined it with boring story and focusing on Cucumberpatch instead on the crew :(
DeleteMonica.....I need a sit down!
ReplyDeleteIt's a day for my boys today here at HOLLYWOOD SPY :)
DeleteUnfortunately we didn't get Fran Drescher's HAPPILY DIVORCED Down Under. Shame. I've always liked her.
ReplyDeleteYou might still, those sitcoms are sold even after they're cancelled.
DeleteThat Monica Bellecci a stunner, not5really sure how they can make a series about Westworld, surley each episode is gonna be full of the same old stuff????
ReplyDeleteI knew Monica would stun you, Ray!
Deletewe need to boycott television... altogether now. who is that lovely woman "Monica Bellecci"... why have i not seen her before and if i have why don't i remember?
ReplyDeletewhat the what? Jeremy, you haven't heard of Monica? She starred in Oscar nominated MALENA, and many other films. Married to famous Vincent Cassell, whom she's currently divorcing :(
DeleteI'd like to see Tracks!
ReplyDeletecould be a fun one!
DeleteToo bad. I love Drescher.
ReplyDeleteBellucci is so beautiful and talented.
we love her too!
DeleteI too admire and enjoy Fran's sit-coms ~ Too bad on that cancellation ~ Tracks trailer, what a journey ~ I don't think I am ever adventurous to make that journey ~
ReplyDeleteit seems they are trying to take away from us all of the positive and decent sitcoms :(
DeleteI loved watching her on the Nanny
ReplyDeleteone of the best sitcoms in history
DeleteI'm not sure how Westworld would go as a series. I'm curious enough to watch it though. ;)
ReplyDeletehope it's good
DeleteMonica didn't even ask if she could borrow that dress. Now what will I wear grocery shopping tomorrow? :P
ReplyDeleteDamn, that is a gorgeous photo...
she's a thief, I say, a thief! Your hubs will be more sorry for the missing dress than you, methinks :PP
DeleteFantasy Island in the west-world setting. Hmm, I liked the movie, but I find I rarely like an entire series made from one movie. Or a book.
ReplyDeleteI became a Yule Brenner fan with that movie.
......dhole
he was quite an interesting actor
