Television is taking a turn for the remakes, looking to resurrect another classic television show for a new generation. Sources are claiming that remake of Dallas is in the works, with none other than Kiefer Sutherland being considered for the lead!
But he won't be playing JR EWing, don't worry. No, that coveted role can only go to one man - the one who originated it! Sources reveal that Larry Hagman, now 79, would be reprising his role as the scheming oil tycoon, and other original cast members, like Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray, have also been approached to return for the remake.
As for the younger blood, we hear Jennifer Love Desperate and Lost actor Josh Holloway are being considered as stars. (Oh, how excited Jennifer must be!)
We think it would be very hard to capture the magic of the original, but worse ideas have been tried!
We give kudos where kudos are due and we're giving several to Miz Jennifer Love Hewitt who starred in a ridiculously powerful episode of Law & Order: SVU last night.
Jennifer played a rape victim who has been repeatedly abused by the same man for 15 years. The motivation of the episode was to educate people on rape kits and how important it is to make sure they are processed in time, so they can be used against rapists.
The Amanda Knox Story will feature Pain-in-the-Ass as the title character, an American exchange student accused of murdering her roommate while abroad in Italy! The real life Knox is currently serving a 26 year jail sentence.
We're sure this girl's story will be done justice in the way only a Lifetime original can!
Not to mention with the aid of Pain-in-the-Ass' truly shiteous nuanced skills as an actress!
The comedy, which was created by Walter Becker - the director behind the masterpiece Wild Hogs - and Nancy Drew writer Tiffany Paulsen, is allegedly being pitched as a "female" version of The Big Bang Theory.
Ha! And we thought Ghost Whisperer was the bottom of the barrel!
Does every show you do have to be a rip-off of a better one that's already on the air, bb?
We think someone better stick to Lifetime original movies!
Joey Lawrence is releasing a new album and he wants to tell you all about it!
He says:
"It's called "Stuck with Me." It reminds of me of the theme of Friends. And I'm making a brand new record that will drop early next year. It is right there with the first Justin Timberlake CD.
"I haven't done an album since 1997, but it sold six million copies and fans have always asked me for more. And I would not have waited this long and gone down this path again if I didn't think we had something."
The Friends theme? Seriously?!
Yeah, we bet people want this as much as they want a hole in the head new music from Jennifer Love Desperate!
Check out this BIZARRE news report about a brand new plastic surgery procedure known as Vampire Filler, which uses BLOOD to erase wrinkles!
BLEGH! Too weird.
We can't wait until Jennifer Love Desperate starts promoting this shiz! Lord knows she'll be clutching her Twilight dolls and calling herself Bella Hewitt Swan while she gets it injected into her face!
Earlier we reported Amanda Bynes spent her weekend in Atlantic City and a passerby's spotted her stumbling and reeking of alcohol. Apparently she even lunged at the dude's Dad!
We don't yet know if those allegations are true, but we did find pics of the She's the Man star swimming with new friends!!
In a fresh pic circulating the internets, Mrs. Bynes and her now iconic wig were seen chillaxing in a hot tub on Father's Day with about ten other folks, most of whom wore nothing but a swimsuit and a super-confused facial expression!!!
Maybe they were perplexed as to why Amanda took both her iPhone and camera into the jacuzzi with her!?
We hope she didn't drop those valuable gizmos!!
The most freaked out bystander of them all? Ch-ch-check her out...AFTER THE JUMP!!!
