Pulling A Levy...

I was thinking someone needs to write a new vehicle for Judy Greer.


After several memorable comic turns in supporting roles in films like Adaptation and Elizabethtown, she hit a home run as Kitty the nympho secretary in Arrested Development.





I mean, she pulled a Levy (as in Eugene)...come on!










Then along came Love Monkey, but it crashed and burned. Sigh.

Now I find out Greer's starring in a new series/pilot for Fox entitled Miss/Guided where she apparently plays a guidance counsellor who returns to work at her old high school.

Here's hoping it scores a high grade....


On the Canadian front, another actress I was thinking about is Gabrielle Miller....


She's more than mastered the funny in a sweet and quirky yet attractive kind of way in Robson Arms and as Lacey in Corner Gas...but I'd love to see her try to go edgy and sarcastic in a sassy sexy way a la Sarah Silverman or Julia Louis-Dreyfus.


Just for fun, ya know?


What other comic actresses or actors out there would you like to see get a show or try out a different type of role?

Not so ugly betty! Well honestly, dunno. Just seems strange watching comic actresses in a serious role.

Like giving Adam Sandlar a serous role. Then again, Will Smith pulled out portraying Mohammed Ali.

Hmmm

Judy Greer as Kitty killed me. "Say goodbye to THESE, Michael."
