Well, Isn't That "Convenient" For You...And The Clock.

Friday Fun in the form of Ben Stiller laying down the ground rules to Vince Vaughn's team in a scene from 'Dodgeball'...



"Ball me, Blazer."

Because it makes me smile...


In other news, Hollywood Reporter reports a slew of stars have signed on to be in new tv pilots, including Oscar winner Marisa Tomei (Oscar winner...remember that?)


She's been tapped for the title role of CBS' comedy pilot "The Rich Inner Life of Penelope Cloud," about a successful writer struggling to come up with the follow-up to her acclaimed first novel. Sounds like must-see TV for every scribe out there.




And Moon Bloodgood is not only presently shooting a new pilot for NBC entitled 'Journeyman' (though it's a drama about a man who travels back in time to alter and fix the lives of people in trouble, but by recalibrating the past, he sometimes affects the future - sounds a lot like Daybreak), but is also a co-star in an upcoming theatrical release called 'Pathfinder' (kind of a Conan the Barbarian/Beastmaster sort of thing).

Just for those keeping score...

Dear Mr. Dixon,

Thank you for your very informative and detailed overview of the acting talent assembling for the television season.

I'm sure it was merely an oversight that you failed to include Donald Sutherland, Elias Koteas, Ving Rhames, Bobby Canavale, LL Cool J, Stephen Dorff and Hugh Jackman.

However, it's good to know that even professional screenwriters like yourself understand that most people do not watch television for the articles.

Yours truly,

A Fan
