Set to shoot later this month, the show reunites Alexander with his former “Seinfeld” co-star Michael Richards who plays Alley’s eccentric driver in the new comedy. Alexander shared, "It is a strange and wonderful thing to be working on a brand new show yet surrounded by familiar faces and friends. I'm looking forward to a fun and fabulous time." The show centers around Broadway star Madison Banks (Kirstie Alley) whose life turns upside down when Arlo (Eric Petersen), the son she gave up at birth, suddenly appears, hoping to connect after his adoptive parents have died. Rhea Perlman (“Cheers”) stars as Maddie’s assistant and best friend alongside Richards (“Seinfeld”) as Maddie’s outlandish driver. “Kirstie” is written and executive produced by Marco Pennette and is also executive produced by Kirstie Alley and Jason Weinberg. Larry W. Jones and Keith Cox serve as executive producers for TV Land. Please log onto www.tvlandpress.com for up-to-the-minute information, press releases and photos.

  • A VIRTUAL CABARET EVENT in Support Of
    A VIRTUAL CABARET BENEFITING THE NATIONAL BREAST CANCER COALITION FUND FROM THE HOSTS OF AND THE NEWGala YORK Sunday, December 6, 2020 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET A LETTER FROM FRAN Dear Friends, Welcome to our first-everVirtual Cabaret Event and an evening of talented performances and tantalizing fun, all for a great cause. This year marks the 20th Anniversary of our Les Girls Cabaret and the 25th Anniversary of our NY Gala, and these two special events have sustained the National Breast Cancer Coalition (NBCC), year after year. When the pandemic hit, I began to wonder if either event would happen. But we found a way. Thanks to the extraordinary efforts of our Event Committee, the encouragement of our sponsors, the personal commitment of our hosts and performers, and the imagination of our production team, we are able to combine both events and once again offer a one-of-a-kind, fantastic evening. We are forever grateful to all of them. Since 1991, NBCC has been at the vanguard of the breast cancer movement, elevating breast cancer to an issue of national significance. NBCC brought about a federal research program that has awarded over $3.75 billion in research grants. We empower women and men, through education and training, to become a unified voice to save lives. And through our Artemis Project®, we lead a collaboration of exceptional scientists and dedicated advocates who focus on research to prevent women and men from getting breast cancer in the first place and stop it from metastasizing and taking lives.

Order; Dissent by Judge KOZINSKI. Prior Report: 125 F.3d 806 ORDER The panel has voted to deny the petition for rehearing. Judge Trott voted to reject the petition for rehearing en banc and Judges B.

The plaintiff there was Vanna White, Wheel of Fortune letter-turner extraordinaire; the offending robot stood next to a letter board, decked out in a blonde wig, Vanna-style gown and garish jewelry.

  • On Richards, Race, and Empathy
    Lanita Jacobs, Ph.D. Word Count: 5318 Anthropology Department University of Southern California 3601 Watt Way, GFS 120 Los Angeles, CA 90089-1692 Office: (213) 740-1909 Email: [email protected] On Richards, Race, and Empathy It has been well over a month since Richards blasted four Black males at the Laugh Factory, one of several clubs I frequent in my research on Black comedy. To be frank, I care less about Richards’ words, the news coverage, and the televised apologies. I sit, poised to write, and find myself in a weary place. Actually, I am weary of race … of what happens when a white man of notoriety goes off about “niggers” and makes a veiled reference to lynching. “So what?” as comic Chris Spencer told me wearily, “Not all white people think that way.” Lest you think I want to engage in one of the safest possible ways of discussing race, let me tell you why I am weary. It is safe to say that Richards lost it. Onstage. And somebody recorded it with their cell phone. And that is, in large part, why you and I are even having this conversation. Having watched comics closely over the past five years, I can appreciate (though not excuse) his tirade as indicative of what happens when a comic’s stage time is threatened. Comics work hard to perform in Los Angeles. The self-described “world-renown” Laugh Factory can rightly boast its title. It’s a great place for a comic to play and those who grace its stage often have to endure the careful scrutiny of club owner and former-comic Jamie Masada.
