Comedian and filmmaker Jeff Garlin recerntly chatted with USA today about his upcoming movie, Dealin' With Idiots. On how he decided to star in te film, he revealed: ' When I rewrite is when I start figuring out who I want; when I'm initially writing it, I generally don't think of anybody. And I think I pretty much got everybody that I wanted. I mean, I shot it in 12 days, so it's not a big time commitment. Yes, you're not making a lot of money, but it's not a time commitment.'
The network announced today the renewal of the critically acclaimed comedy series Maron for a second season with 13 all new half-hour episodes, up from 10, scheduled to premiere in 2014.

The upcoming broadcast season is undoubtedly going to be a good one. At least a whole lot better than the current slate of programming (most networks have ditched their 2012-2013 additions). NBC, CBS, Fox, and ABC have managed to enlist some major talent to headline their new shows for the 2013-2014 lineup, and are now in the process of announcing their pick-ups. It's a rarity for execs to land such names as Rebel Wilson, Gillian Anderson, Robin Williams, Allison Janney, Anna Faris, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Greg Kinnear at all - let alone all for new series in one year. And so, below are the top ten just-ordered network shows with the most potential!
