Crackhead (HBO, 5 episodes) Drug-addicted party-animal Frankie has blown it all up - her inheritance, her relationships, and most recently, her sister's house. It's time to go to rehab. Creator and star Holly Hervey is outstanding in the lead role as Frankie in this New Zealand comedy. Also watch out for Sara Wiseman and Errol Shand who both work at the rehab centre Frankie arrives at.The filmmakers really want to shock the Crackhead audience. Just minutes into episode one Holly’s character Frankie is on a wild night at a club. She ends up making out and vomiting into a toilet at the same time. That might draw a vidid picture for people trying to imagine that. Surprisingly in the show we get to see it in detail. The Comeback (Series 3, HBO Max, 8 episodes) The third and final season of the HBO Original comedy series The Comeback. Two decades years after its debut, the series returns with Lisa Kudrow reprising her Emmy-nominated role as actress Valerie Cherish. And what an awkward character she is. Homebodies (SBS, 6 episodes) This is a bold, surprising and heartfelt Australian family drama that explores the courage it takes to accept the ghosts (literally) from our past.The series stars Claudia Karvan (Bump, Puberty Blues, Love My Way), Luke Wiltshire (Boyish and With Love, Lottie) and Jazi Hall (Playing Gracie Darling), and follows Darcy (Wiltshire), a trans man who reluctantly returns to his regional hometown to care for his estranged mother Nora (Karvan). Roxie Mohebbi is great too as Dee’s childhood friend who features in perhaps the short series’ most interesting storyline. The Other Bennett Sister (Foxtel/Binge, 10 episodes) The series features characters from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. The story begins at Longbourn, the Bennet family home, where Mr and Mrs Bennet preside over a lively household of five unmarried daughters: Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty, and Lydia. As society’s pressures mount, the Bennet sisters navigate the glittering yet precarious world of Regency England, where marriage is both aspiration and necessity.Andrew dismissed this as one of James’ standard British petticoat dramas…but guess what, he liked it too!Watch this for Ella Bruccoleri is Mary Bennet, Ruth Jones is great as Mary’s mean mother and Richard E Grant excellent as usual as the befuddled father who sadly lasts only two episodes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Comeback is back, and Michael Patrick King is here to talk about it. The co-creator and director joins Newsweek's H. Alan Scott to break down how he and Lisa Kudrow arrived at the idea of Valerie Cherish being cast in the first sitcom written by AI, what it means to finally see Valerie in the real world without cameras, and why they only return to the show when there's a seismic cultural shift worth exploring. He also gets into the origin of his creative partnership with Lisa, what makes her performance genuinely one of a kind, and why, after 21 years, this feels like the right moment to say goodbye to Valerie Cherish.

Dan Bucatinsky has been in Valerie Cherish's corner since the very beginning, and he's here to make the case for why she's always been a heroine, not a punchline. The actor and producer behind Billy, Valerie's manager, joins Newsweek's H. Alan Scott to talk about what makes this final season of The Comeback so emotionally satisfying, how the show manages to tackle AI without an agenda, and what it really means that Valerie is finally going head-to-head with the one person who knows her best. He also opens up about his decades-long creative partnership with Lisa Kudrow, the beautiful way season three honors the legacy of Robert Michael Morris (Mickey), and why, even as the cameras stop rolling on Valerie Cherish, he's not entirely ready to call it goodbye.

She's back, and she needs to be heard. Lisa Kudrow joins the Newsweek's H. Alan Scott to talk about The Comeback season three, the one we didn't know we were waiting for but absolutely needed. We get into an evolved Valerie Cherish navigating AI, a gut-punch tribute to Robert Michael Morris and what it means that Val is suddenly the one in the room who has it most together. As Kudrow puts it, "everybody is in that place that Val was 20 years ago"—and she's not wrong. Plus: that ‘Friends' moment, and why Stage 24 will finally have its hit TV show. This one is heartfelt, funny and essential listening for any fan of the show.

Demi Moore och Pamela Anderson har gjort storstilad comeback. Och det genom att medvetet använda sig av mode och skönhet som en sorts PR-strategi. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Demi Moore och Pamela Anderson är förvisso väldigt olika sinsemellan, men båda har blivit enormt uppmärksammade för sin stil, på olika vis. De har skapat rubriker som: ”Så blev Demi Moore en ny modeälskling vid 61 års ålder” och ”Pamela Anderson har en ny signaturlook – ingen makeup”. Det har gett resultat. I år har båda dessa kvinnor gjort succé i modevärlden och har använt uppmärksamheten för att få fart på sina karriärer – som går som smort just nu.Spaltkilometer av hyllande texter har skrivits om Pamela Andersons mod att under modeveckorna i vintras visa upp sitt osminkade fejs och ingen verkar idag kunna få nog av att titta på Demi Moore i det ena eleganta designerplagget efter det andra.I veckans program pratar vi med Göteborgs-Postens kulturchef Johan Hilton om den satiriska komediserien The Comeback från 2005, en samtida klassiker. I den spelar Lisa Kudrow den avdankade sitcom-stjärnan Valerie Cherish. Hon har inte haft en framgångsrik roll på många år, men nu ska hon göra comeback i en ny sitcom. Det går sådär...Vi pratar också med musikjournalisten Tina Mehrafzoon om den brittiska artisten Raye, som efter år att motgångar nu har fått sitt stora genombrott. Så sent som i mars i år slog hon rekord i antalet vunna priser på Brit Awards och men hennes genombrott har kallats för en av pophistoriens allra bästa comeback-berättelser. Och så pratar vi med den australiensiska filmkritikern Michael Adams om hur dålig en dålig film egentligen kan bli.Veckans gäst är Hedvig von Mentzer, journalist specialiserad på skönhet.

In the decade that “Friends” was on the air, from 1994-2004, Lisa Kudrow experienced the heights of fame and success that come with starring in a smash-hit show with legions of fans worldwide. But Kudrow’s boundless curiosity and creative instincts have led her far beyond the world of the show, to writing and producing, and starring in independent films. In the course of her career, she has created a gallery of complex, original, captivating women, from Phoebe Buffay in “Friends” to Valerie Cherish in “The Comeback,” Fiona Wallice in “Web Therapy,” and Lucia DeLury in “The Opposite of Sex.”Kudrow joins the show to discuss “Space Force,” the new Netflix comedy series co-created by Steve Carell (who also stars) and Greg Daniels, about a four-star general being tapped to form a sixth branch of the US Armed Forces. Kudrow also discusses what it was like to be an actress in the nineties, why she’s never precious about her writing, handling setbacks, and her relationship to success.

This episode we're book-clubbing the unique HBO show, The Comeback! Starring Lisa Kudrow, The Comeback is all presented as "raw footage" from a fictional reality TV show following actress Valerie Cherish's return to acting in a sitcom. We focus more on spoiler-free review this episode, since this show has become more of an underground cult classic because it was too ahead of its time. We break down the many similarities between this show and one of the most famous shows of all time: The Office. In the spoiler part, we discuss the arcs of specific characters and the very interesting final sequence of the series. Recorded 5/6/2019.
"Jane? Jane? Sound familiar?" Jane Benson returns to Valerie Cherish's life because she needs to. She needs the money, first of all, but she also needs an opportunity to tell the truth about Valerie. The truth, however, is something Valerie does not always need to see, especially if it makes her look ugly or old. But what if it's seen as brave?

How exactly did Valerie Cherish get back on TV after almost a decade of circling the drain? The first episode of Season 2 does an amazing job of navigating the narrative nuances that take Valerie from desperately seeking stardom to nailing an audition at HBO playing, well, herself. This is truly her Comeback. Get in touch! Email: inthedetailspod@gmail.com Twitter: @colindrucker YouTube: www.youtube.com/colindrucker
At the end of the first season of "The Comeback," Valerie Cherish is on top of the world--or so she thinks. Her time in the spotlight fades out steadily--but not immediately. Valerie tries many different things to stay relevant before "Seeing Red" propels her into stardom again. This week, we'll take a look back at her other failed attempts at reality television, a brief time on Broadway and even an entrepreneurial effort with an old friend. But first, I queen out on Toni Collette, Regina King, Faye Dunaway, and of course--Brenda Vaccaro.

We've explored many ways to answer the question, "Who is Valerie Cherish?" and this week, in the Part 3 of Cherishing Valerie, we're talking about the side of Valerie that comes out under pressure, who she is at home with Mark, Paulie G's effect on her, when we see her inner child emerge, and finally, why so many people love Valerie--especially gay men.

The only way to really get to know Valerie Cherish is through the people in her life--who she is with them and who they let her be. In Part 2 of "Cherishing Valerie," we're going to meet three key co-stars of her comeback: Juna, Mickey and Jane. They each bring out a different side of Valerie and each give her something important.

In many ways, "The Comeback" feels like a documentary about fame, how addictive it is, and the lengths fading sitcom actress Valerie Cherish will go to get it back--to be relevant again. To be heard. In Part One of a 3-part series, I explore the world of television Valerie came from, including some kooky parallels with another canceled workplace comedy of the early 90's, what might have happened after "I'm It" went off the air, and the addictive reward system built into reality television and reflected in the first episode of "The Comeback."

ESOPUS inaugurated a collaborative series with the newly renovated Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, Queens, with a screening and in-person appearance by actress Lisa Kudrow and her producing partner Dan Bucatinsky. In 2005, Kudrow and Michael Patrick King co-created "The Comeback," a penetrating and often brutal satire of reality TV, sitcoms, and show business in general, which aired on HBO for one season (and which was featured, along with an interview with Kudrow and King, in ESOPUS 15: TELEVISION). The program opened with a screening of the series’ first episode, after which Kudrow, who was nominated for an Emmy for her brilliant portrayal of the show’s protagonist, Valerie Cherish, discussed the conception, execution, and untimely demise of the critically lauded series (which was finaly ultimately resurrected by HBO in 2015 for another acclaimed season).
Shawn Hollenbach and Sue Funke have known each other for well over a decade from their time on the stand-up comedy scene. Shawn's also been the person who got Sue her job at Logo and A+E Networks (he'll claim it was all her resume, but he's too kind.) Listen as they discuss behind the scenes Drag Race information, the vulnerability of Valerie Cherish and the most important news event he wathed unfold on TV.
With the Season 9 premiere just around the corner, we get to know the queens a little better in a new segment called "Give Her Another Take!" Before taking a closer look at Eureka O'Hara, Farrah Moan, Trinity Taylor and Shea Coulee, we queen the F out on "The Comeback" and the brilliant NUANCE of Valerie Cherish.
In this episode Ru and Michelle are joined by Dan Bucatinsky. We discuss the Comeback, HBO, the evolution of Valerie Cherish, working with Lisa Kudrow, being killed off of Scandal, Jeff Perry, It Gets Better, being married to Dan Roos, and the cookie dough generation. This episode is sponsored by Squarespace and Bevel.
Laura Silverman plays Jane on the HBO series, "The Comeback" which had its season finale on Dec 28. The series was created by Michael Patrick King and Lisa Kudrow. I realize that not everybody who reads this is old enough to remember how most of us came to know Kudrow. For those not in the know, Kudrow played "Phoebe" on the acclaimed series "Friends." In "The Comeback" she plays Valerie Cherish, an embarrassing actress with a thirst for the big time, even when it wants nothing to do with her. Once a star, and not so much anymore, she tries to revive her career by doing a documentary about her life. She hires a student film crew and has the highest of hopes in pitching the final edited documentary to Bravo. Jane was the producer of this tanking documentary. She's mostly heard off camera, being snapped at by Varelie. This series was first filmed in 2009 and was canceled after one season. Behold, the suits wanted it brought back and it airs a second and final season in 2014. In season 2, Jane has since grown into a serious documentary filmmaker. But Valerie is back at her door. With one last request. Should we mention that Laura Silverman is also Sarah Silverman's older sister? In this conversation, Laura and maDCap chat about various topics: her background in Bedford, NH, her early literary days and the "O'Connor Cons," and of course her character Jane on HBO's The Comeback. https://twitter.com/LauraJSilverman

When life hands you lemons, put 9 contract extensions in a bowl for Shan. Inspired by another triumphant episode for Sarah's broken bird queen, she invites Bravoholic pal and writer girl Tom Smyth to the cloffice, in order to fully unpack all things Orange County and more. Before that happens, however, they had to react to the And Just Like That Finale (spoiler alert!), what Mary's return to Salt Lake means for friends-of the world over, and yes, oh yes, so much about Shan. Orange County giveth and giveth more: Shan's definition of friendship as a selectively silent vessel and her spiritual kinship with Valerie Cherish, what's really underneath Emily and Heather's upset (and Tamra's slowly building narrative against Madame Chateau Dubrow), what Gina's boundaries re-set says about the sometimes-performative nature of Housewives friendships, and a connection between Heather's shocking reveal about John Janssen's interest in the limelight and the difference between privacy and control.
