It’s a Reunion reunion: Mira Sorvino is looking forward to dusting off her prom dress and dropping a few IQ points to reteam with Lisa Kudrow for a sequel to their 1997 cult comedy Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion.
Lisa Kudrow and Courteney Cox are in for a very “un-Friend-ly” reunion on ABC’s sex-charged freshman comedy, Cougar Town.
The former co-stars get back together again when Lisa guest-stars as a mean-spirited dermatologist on an upcoming episode of Courteney’s hit new sitcom.
“They didn’t want to play friends,” executive producer Bill Lawrence told Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello. “[Lisa] plays a dermatologist who is a horrible, horrible person, but [Courteney] goes to her because she’s the best.The [sight] of them playing people who dislike each other intensely was very funny for me to watch.”
Lisa’s Cougar Town episode is expected to air early next year.
The cast of Friends refuses to go away. Despite spending a million years on NBC’s hit Thursday night comedy before saying farewell in 2004, the show’s signature cast continue popping up on our TV screens — and it appears they’ve got one more mini-reunion left in ‘em.
Lisa Kudrow, ex-Phoebe, has signed on to guest star alongside Busy Phillips and former Friend Courteney Cox on the ABC comedy Cougar Town, an ABC spokesperson confirmed on Tuesday.
“If it all works out, she’ll play a dermatologist that my character can’t stop going to even though the doctor is mean to me,” Courteney says of the guest spot, which is expected to air early next year. “She’s the best in town at what she does and I become addicted.”
The pairing of Lisa and Courteney will be the second time the two have reunited for a project in recent months. In June, Courteney played the part of a psychic on Lisa’s Internet series, “Web Therapy.”
Lisa Kudrow has resurrected “Smelly Cat” for charity! The actress best known for her role as Phoebe Buffay on the long-running NBC sitcom Friends played her signature song from the iconic sitcom during an appearance at the “Rock A Little, Feed A Lot” Benefit Concert at Club Nokia in Los Angeles Tuesday night.
Apparently, the poor cat still stinks and we have no idea what they’re feeding it.
Actresses Sarah Jessica Parker, Susan Sarandon and Lisa Kudrow will star in a new NBC celebrity genealogy series, Who Do You Think You Are?, that examines the family trees of stars. The six-episode series, produced by Lisa, is based on a BBC documentary series popular in Britain. Read the rest of this entry »
