'TRUTH BE TOLD' SITCOM
CAST PHOTOS REVEALED!
You know your trusted Dezzy loves nothing more than a good multi camera comedy series on the telly, so today we're only talking new sitcoms! Starting with the lovely photos of what seems to be the prettiest cast ever seen in a sitcom from brand new comedy TRUTH BE TOLD (previously known as PEOPLE ARE TALKING) which brings laughs to NBC Friday, October 16th with the delightful cast lead by Mark Paul Gosellaar, Vanessa Lachey and Tone Bell.
THE FEARLESS FOURSOME
The sitcom revolves around two diverse couples - Mitch (Mark-Paul
Gosselaar) and Tracy (Vanessa Lachey), and Russell (Tone Bell) and Angie
(Bresha Webb) - a fearless foursome who are both neighbours and best
friends. As they navigate through life side by side, they can't help but
analyse and obsess about everything. From sex and race to anything else
your parents told you never to talk about, absolutely no topic is out
of bounds for this wildly outspoken group.

Mitch is a college ethics professor, which might explain why he goes through life with a heightened attention to justice. He knows he can't change the world but is quite determined to change his corner of it. At
his side is his beautiful wife of five years, Tracy, who by day is a tough attorney, and by night a nurturing mom to their four year old daughter.
Their best friends, Russell and Angie, live next door. Russell is Mitch's male voice of reason. A stand-up comic, Russell has absolutely no fear when it comes to talking to someone or making a scene in public to
prove his point. His new bride Angie is that spirited, special kind of woman, who while married to a guy that's quite a handful, is able to go toe to toe with him at a moment's notice.

Vanessa Lachey I a double fox. Is she a good actress, Dezzzmeister?
ReplyDeletenot just a good actress but also a very kind, loving and lovely lady privately too
DeleteAnd you are going to introduce her to me?
Deleteonly if you're not afraid of her muscly hunky two times bigger than you husband Nick Lachey
DeleteI'm fearless.
Deleteyou don't say!
DeleteBut I do. But I do. Talk is all I do...
Deleteof course you do!
DeleteWait...did I just read the words "Michael Bolton will star?" Did we go back in time?
ReplyDeleteyep, Bolton as in Long Hair Bolton :)
DeleteShudder sounds odd and quirky, but I think it has potential.
ReplyDeletehope Hammish won't be too irritating because sometimes he sure can be :)
DeleteTruth Be Told has a very attractive cast. I'd like to watch these, although I rarely watch sitcoms. I have a lot of catching up to do TV-wise.
ReplyDeletethe only problem is that TRUTH BE TOLD will air on Fridays, which is the day for LAST MAN STANDING at ABC... and also for UNDATEABLE... hope those three amazing sitcoms won't clash in the same airing times
DeleteLike Medeia I don't watch sitcoms often, but Truth Be Told looks funny. I do wish my neighbours were like those. Mostly, the people who live near me are either drunk, or shooting up heroin. And there's nothing funny about that.
ReplyDeleteMoi got you some teas dahlikink.
Dahlink, why don't you watch sitcoms? I only watch multicamera ones. I think you might enjoy UNDATEABLE at NBC, at least the first season, because it is both warm and intelligent at the same time. I also absolute adore LAST MAN STANDING which is probably the most intelligent one out there, both modern and old school and always gives both opinions on important issues.
DeleteMe too, dear, why can't we have Gosellaar for a neighbour? I swear I wouldn't behave like a peeping Tom... at least not while me is sleeping :) I wish you and me were neighbours, Annzie, we'd sip tea in your garden in the mornings while gossiping the town and organize some parade in the evenings to piss them off big time :)
Oooh, you did, dear? Sending you a smooch!
Our parades would be full of hot, sweaty, half-naked men. But we'd have to import them as the ones living here are ugly :0)
Deletewe will wax and tan the ugly ones, dear, that would piss of their hillbilly wives even more :)
DeleteIt's still weird to hear Vanessa Lachey instead of Jessica. Sigh...
ReplyDeleteand so much better to hear it, if you ask me :)
DeleteI think I like the trailer for Hot and Bothered better, but with such a beautiful cast, we will have to at least give Truth Be Told a few episodes before making a decision to keep or cut it from the lineup.
ReplyDeleteyes, agreed.... I read a short review at one of the biggest sites, I forgot which one, and they gave it one star saying it is such a bland uninteresting cast... and I was like.. what the freakin' hell??? The cast is what will draw me to watching it.... And yet they will find that idiot who leads MODERN FAMILY or Julia Dreyfuss interesting comedy actors??? Or Tina Fey? Or this new Amy Schumer who suddenly appeared out of nowhere... none of them people has any comedic talent nor a bit of charisma in them and yet they're praised and get Globes and Emmys
DeleteSome people don't have a clue (though I actually do like Tina Fey). I don't think this cast looks bland or boring at all! My problem is, I don't have a lot of time for tv viewing, and there are a lot of shows I want to watch. This has to snatch my attention within 2 or 3 episodes or it gets removed from the lineup. Let's hope they have some good stuff packed in those first few episodes.
ReplyDeleteI don't have time either, but I try to have an hour for a daily episode each night after I finish work :)
