Jason (and the whole VM cast!) in "Play It Again, Dick"

[allegrita]

I can't get over how shocked Ryan (or is it Dick? ) looks, when confronted with Jason's physique!

[myimmortal]

Nope, 'cause I had the same suggested videos, and I have NO history of watching that show. Maybe Americans are subjected to worse commercial influences than you Canadians.

Hm, maybe it's because I was logged into my YouTube/Google account, so YT suggested videos related to other videos I had watched recently whereas you and r1015bill got more generic video suggestions?

OK Jason's muscles look almost too big for his body. They make his head look so small!

[r1015bill]

Ah! That might be it. I wasn't logged in.

But wouldn't you think I'd get Veronica Mars stuff or something with the individual actors? I guess I don't understand their algorithm for likely choices.

Great #PlayItAgainDick story from #Buzzfeed. One caveat. No one at Warner Bros is disappointed in gross VM earnings.

Quote from the article -- as if I didn't already love Kristen Bell enough...

Bell’s participation, however, was initially in doubt, given her increasingly packed schedule — and pregnancy. But the actress never imagined a world in which she was not a part of the group’s next undertaking. “First and foremost, these people are a priority for me,” she said. “Working for Rob is a priority for me. And this character is a priority for me. All of those things combined means we can give a little something extra to the people who want it. And if the fans will enjoy it, we’ll keep doing it.”

For Bell, the last year and a half has shown her that — despite the numbers — the fans are voracious, and will welcome a return to Neptune as often as possible. “They’ve now earned a stake in this project,” she said of the ever-growing legion of loyal fans. “Previously we could say, ‘We want to do this,’ but they are the reason we’ve been able to breathe life into this again, so I’d like to know what they want. Do they want us to keep making low-budget webseries like this? Great. Then we’ll do it. Do they want another movie? Great. We’ll do it. Do they want to try and get it on TV again? Great. We’ll do it. When people ask me what I foresee from Veronica, I want to do what the fans want.”

A bit from Rob Thomas' post to Kickstarter backers today...

As you may have already heard, Play It Again, Dick is a digital series that follows Ryan Hansen as he tries to get a Dick Casablancas show off the ground. As Ryan says in his pitch to the CW network:

“It’s like a Veronica Mars that isn’t afraid of sex. Rob always called me the dessert of the show. Why not a show that’s all dessert? We drop all the who-gives-a-damn high school-is-a-metaphor-for-something-or-other and just give the people what they want: Dick!”

And the poster. Love the tag line.

Okay, this show is really promising to be hi-freakin'-larious.

This is a 10 minute interview with Jason, Percy Daggs, and Michael Muhney, from Sydney ComicCon. They talk about a number of things, and just have a wonderful interaction with each other.

Jason mentions (towards the end) that he has a "couple" of indy movie projects going, and also mentions the Hallmark movie, in which he does play a single dad. Certainly looking forward to anything he puts out!

It's like a paean to excess and bad taste, isn't it?!

[Lilly]

I love it!


"Yeah, Dude!"

[darkstarrising]

Tomorrow, tomorrow, we'll get Dick tomorrow....

[librarian_7]

tsk, tsk, tsk. Oh, heck,

[allegrita]

That show is definitely PG-13. Look at the tagline on the poster!
