- Here’s some details on the AOL chat happening tonight, the hour prior to the show’s premiere:
If Clerks was your kind of comedy, be sure to check out our chat with actor-director Kevin Smith. One of Tinseltown’s savviest young showmen, Smith has scored with such diverse hits as Chasing Amy, Mallrats and Dogma. Now he’s returning to his creative roots with a new, animated TV version of the zany project that started it all — Clerks. Ask him all about it (and find out about his recent foray into fatherhood), Wednesday night at 8:30PM ET.
You’ll need to go to keyword “LIVE†to participate in the chat. For those of you who can’t make it, fear not, we’ll have a full transcript for you right here at News Askew.
- ABC may not seem to be supporting the Clerks show TOO much, but they’re trying at least a bit here. Their official website’s got Jay & Bob at the top of the page, though, at presstime, the link doesn’t seem to want to work…
- Kevin appeared on Howard Stern this morning, alas it was too early and we missed the chance to grab audio but luckily Ming was up. You can download the clip right HERE! Anyway, Kev called in around 6:35 and chatted for about 15 minutes. Here’s our scooper’s summary of what went down:
I missed the first 5 minutes but awoke to Kevin talking about the Clerks TV show with Howard. He addressed all of the bad reviews of it saying it got good internet reviews and horrible newspaper reviews. Howard asked Kevin if it was possible that the show sucked, Kevin admitted it might. Then Howard asked about the controversy, Kevin told his story again but then Howard asked about him and Linda. Howard asked Kevin if there was anyone in Hollywood that doesn’t hate him. Kevin then told some of the episodes plot and convinced Howard to watch it. Finally, Howard made Kevin aware that they were going up against the Knicks game.
- And finally, a scan of TV Cable Guide from Syracuse, New York.
