The Gay and Lesbian Entertainment Critics Association (GALECA.org • Facebook • Twitter), comprised of over 130 professional critics and entertainment journalists nationwide, today released its choices for the best in movies and television of 2015.
I'm gonna make this nice and simple: if you're not watching the HBO comedy series THE COMEBACK, you should be. The sitcom stars Lisa Kudrow as Valerie Cherish, a former A-list actress who agrees to document her attempt at rediscovering fame by being the subject of a reality show. It's genuinely hilarious and full of heart – and boasts an extensive list of guest stars, to boot (I'm looking at you, Sean Hayes and Seth Rogen). If you don't believe me, maybe you'll listen to the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, which just recognized the series with an Emmy nomination for Lisa Kudrow for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series.
Deadline has confirmed that Malin Akerman and Kellan Lutz are set to return for the new season of Lisa Kudrow's THE COMEBACK on HBO. The pair will reprise their roles of Juna and Chris, respectively. Production for the series' return is expected to begin shortly.
Lisa Kudrow (Emmy(R) winner for 'Friends') stars as the embattled Valerie Cherish, a fading TV 'It Girl' who was once so desperate to stay in the spotlight that she allowed cameras to follow her every move as she appeared on a new sitcom - with disastrous results.
Robert Michael Morris and Mel Rodriguez have joined the cast of the new FOX comedy series RUNNING WILDE. Additionally, David Cross will reunite with 'Arrested Development' co-star Will Arnett and executive producers Mitch Hurwitz and Jim Vallely for a recurring role.
