OK – I know NBC has been on a really bad run lately – but things are definitely looking up!
I just received an email alert from the Hollywood Reporter announcing that Christina Ricci has agreed to star in…
wait for it…
wait for it…
GIRLFRIEND IN A COMA
After 87 years, NBC finally has a show to be proud of.
Bob Greenblatt has proven his brilliance and I can’t to hear what’s next:
Could it be – “My Boyfriend’s Got A Nail In His Head”?
“Dad’s Bleeding From The Ass… Again”
“What’s That Thing On Molly’s Face?”
The possibilities are endless.
All joking aside… Here’s who is really in a coma:
Jill Kennedy – OnMedea
I would like to see “My Boyfriend’s Got A Nail In His Head”!
This sounds snarky but isn’t – why doesn’t NBC just get out of scripted series altogether? Just have a lineup of competition/live sports/reality/variety/game shows? Lower ratings but much cheaper than scripted anyway?
You do have to realize that NBC comes from the same corporate management that brought us Catwoman and Wolverine in Les Mis. I understand Manka Brothers, the largest media company in the world, is about to launch a hostile takeover of Comcast.
Being here in the east, with 2 feet of snow on the ground, NBC is showing weather, non-stop…maybe that will become the new programming paradigm
Ricci has little to do with it. NBC saved itself when it finally got rid of Jeff Zucker. Now he’s at CNN. Let’s see how long before he runs that into the ground … get your stopwatch ready.
Christina Ricci is out! She didn’t make it past the table read.
