HBO'S JULIA SEASON TWO
Two of our favourite HBO shows are finally coming back and beside Gilded Age which returns October 29th, JULIA is also coming back with season two but November 16th when it will premiere with three new episodes and other five will air weekly till late December. Sarah Lancashire is back as the acclaimed chef Julia Child and David Hyde Pierce as her husband, Paul as you can see in the first trailer today. For the viewers in UK the series will again air on Sky and on Foxtel in Australia.
IN THE SECOND SEASON
first
three episodes will be set in Paris and the French Riviera while Julia
grapples with her rising fame and celebrity with her show up and running
on the air, and with a weekly cooking program virtually unheard of at
the time. After spending some much needed time in France while preparing
for her second season of her cooking show The French Chef, Julia visits
a wide variety of renowned restaurants and chefs across both the South
of France and the U.S in Washington D.C. and of course, Boston. Social
issues prevalent in today’s social landscape are mirrored in Julia’s
journey as she and her team spearhead female-driven public television.
WHO IS IN THE CAST?
Also back in the cast are Bebe Neuwirth, Brittany Bradford, Fran Kranz, Fiona Glascott and Robert Joy while Rachel Bloom will join the series in the recurring role of Elaine Levitch, a dynamo who comes to WGBH by way of CBS to work with Julia on The French Chef. Stockard Channing, Craig Bierko, Judith Light, Isabella Rossellini, Tosin Morohunfola and Christian Clemenson all have guest roles in the new season. It has been a year
and a half since the first season aired in spring 2022. They have used a
real 1,000 years old market in France to shoot the scenes where Julia
is shopping for groceries while on the trip there.
How you feeling this morning. see, this is a feel-good show but it's full of conflict. making the right dish, creating a tv program even the publishing world presents challenge. Characters are wonderful, how they use food as metaphor of love, friendship even sex. it's why this feels more genuine than the faux feminist pamphlet "Lessons in Chemistry".
ReplyDeleteBetter, thanks for asking, I knew propolis would help me clear up the mucus but it will take a few more days to clear it all out. How are you?
DeleteThis is why I was shocked it good no awards, not even nominations even though it is deeper than most other shows we get. I thought that it being on HBO would help, but alas.... How da phook can you not give Lanchashire at least an Emmy or Globe nom???
PS try to catch new Frasier on CBS linear Tuesdays, it is marvelous and has this warmth and love that we get from Julia. It is very oldschool and very our posh world mixed with modern times. All characters are extremely likeable.
I need to sign up for HBO. I was using someone else's account until we had a falling out, so I'll need to subscribe. I need me more Julia!
ReplyDeleteYou need both Julia and their Gilded Age!
DeleteIndeed!
DeleteI am ready for both
