- Take a peek at a few photos from the recent Columbus, Ohio SModcast with thanks to Mike for sharing from his personal collection. Looks like a nice venue there.
- Our pal the Buddy Christ once again shows up at the workplace — This time, however, someone has decided to fight back with a biblical quote of their own. Good stuff.
- Jason Lee’s “Memphis Beat” is now airing Tuesdays on TNT. Chicago Now had the opportunity to conduct a phone interview with the great Mr. Lee recently about the program, where he plays a detective who literally sings the blues during his off hours. Some snips of interest:
NBC surprised everyone when it canceled “Earl.” How did you feel about it?
I definitely miss Earl and working on the show. It was a shame the way they canceled it. We didn’t get to finish the series. I was devastated; we were all confused. But I guess life goes on and now here I am working on something entirely different.
Do you guys still get to see each other every once in a while?
Yeah, I see Ethan [Suplee] quite a bit. He was a friend of mind sort of from “Mall Rats” basically. And so we got to work on “Earl”-came full circle, just about 15 years later.
Well its good to have you back.
Oh, thank you, thank you.
And “Memphis” couldn’t be more different really.
No, I mean, as an actor you look forward to that, I guess. It’s like you don’t always expect what’s coming and interesting things really come your way and kind of surprise you.
