Watch VEEP Cast reunion tonight for a hilarious special

 


‘Veep’ Cast Reunites For Virtual Table Read To Support Voter Turnout For Georgia Runoffs

Source (Deadline.com)

I was unhappy to see the final episode of hilarious political satire VEEP back in May 2019. One of the funniest comedies I had seen in awhile, and as usual with the finale of all excellent series, it was hard to say goodbye! 

Julia Louis-Dreyfus' antics and spin on being the President and formerly VP, are hysterical and with the equally hilarious ensemble of cast, characters and storylines, VEEP has been sorely missed. Now we have a chance to enjoy them once again! (Maybe only for one live performance episode, but Yay!!!)

Selina Meyer and the entire Veep gang are back! Julia Louis-Dreyfus and showrunner David Mandel have been teasing the virtual read all week which will feature original cast members and a couple of special guests performing the “Mother” episode from Season 5. The event takes place tonight at 8pm ET and helps support voter turnout in the Georgia Senate Runoffs.

This marks another virtual reunion for the Emmy-winning HBO comedy as Louis-Dreyfus and company gathered online in October to raise funds for the Democratic Party of Wisconsin during the general election.

“We’re ready to perform the “Mother” episode for #VeepUncut and #ShowUpForGeorgia while we’re at it,” wrote Louis-Dreyfus on Instagram. “Book your spot at ShowUpForGeorgia.com (link in bio) and support @AmericaVotes’ voter turnout campaign in the Georgia runoffs. Tomorrow night at 8PM ET!”

Louis-Dreyfus points out that the episode for tonight’s table read is available HBOMax. The virtual table read will feature the uncut script from the episode which spotlights a recount in a presidential election — something that is wildly relevant.

Anna Chlumsky, Reid Scott, Sam Richardson, Tony Hale, Timothy Simons, Clea DuVall, Matt Walsh, Gary Cole and Sarah Sutherland, Sufe Bradshaw will join Louis-Dreyfus and Mandel for the table read. to add to all of this greatness, Stephen Colbert, Don Cheadle, Mark Hamill, Paul Scheer, Kumail Nanjiani, Patton Oswalt and Bryan Cranston will also make cameos during the table read.

The event comes ahead of the December 7 deadline to register to vote in Georgia. Other important dates to take note of for the runoffs include early in-person voting on December 14 and January 5, 2021, which is Election Day.

To sign up for the event visit ShowUpForGeorgia.com.

Male Sexiness in this Modern Age: What's a "Real Man" These Days, Anyway?

In the past few years, Hollywood has recast the male Adonis as slim, bookish, and emotionally available. Some men aren’t happy about it. Where does that leave you? On April 13, 2021, Mitchell S. Jackson of Esquire writes: "You might’ve noticed that Hollywood has been remaking, or at least diversifying, the attributes of male sex symbols and, you could argue, manhood itself right alongside them. Exemplars of this en vogue masculinity are less the musclebound, taciturn, and seldom-emotive men of yore but slim, bookish, sometimes awkward, and empathic types, some of whom are daring against gender boundaries: Timothée Chalamet, Harry Styles, Shawn Mendes, etc.  Let’s unpack a bit, shall we? The fact that Hollywood’s new standard-bearers of masculinity are young white men shouldn’t be no big old surprise. (Jaden Smith and Tyler, the Creator touted as equal paragons? Not so much.) This goes back to eighteenth-century art-history pioneer Johann Winckelmann, who extolled th

2021 Oscars - What to expect: 10 Nomination Predictions for Best Picture

With the beginning of every New Year comes much thought, speculation and anticipation about the year’s upcoming Academy Awards nominations. Expectations and forecasts spin around as film lovers around the world are curious which films will be in the running! Theatres and cinemas around the globe have been locked down for most of 2020 and beyond, so very few of the contending films actually had Box Office exposure, if any sort of theatrical release whatsoever. However, most of the predicted contending films have been, or soon will be, aired on streaming sites like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, Disney Plus and some are even streaming for free on YouTube. Additional “predicted to be nominated” films, yet to be released, (Nomadland, Minari and The Father - all scheduled for release in February) may or may not hit the theatres and the accessibility to pre-watch these “predicted to be nominated” Best Pictures will certainly be different for audiences than in previous years.
