The Comeback

description

"The Comeback" is a television series that aired on HBO in 2005 and 2014. It follows the story of Valerie Cherish, a washed-up actress who tries to revive her career by starring in a reality show. The show is shot in a mockumentary style, with the cameras following Valerie around as she navigates the ups and downs of her life.

The first season of the show was well-received by critics, who praised its unique format and Lisa Kudrow's performance as Valerie. However, the show was cancelled after one season due to low ratings. Nine years later, in 2014, HBO revived the series for a second season, which continued Valerie's story and addressed the changing landscape of reality television.

In the second season, Valerie lands a role in a new HBO drama series, but struggles to balance her personal life and career. The show received positive reviews for its exploration of themes such as aging, fame, and the entertainment industry. Despite this, there are currently no plans for a third season.

Bunheads

2011
Comedy & Humor
If you have missed a chance to be hooked up with Gilmore Gilrs, the new ABC's dramedy Bunheads is exactly what you need. The first episode of Bunheads has left such a feeling that if there were a little bit more of GG-like moments in Bunheads, the CW lawyers would inevitably file the suit against ABC. And that is not surprisingly taking into consideration the fact that the TV show was created by the same Amy Sherman-Palladino who created splendid Gilmore Gilrs. It is felt throughout the sharp dialogs, giddy repartees, deeply portrayed personalities and perfectly constructed dance scenes. The astonishing dancing ingredient of the Bunheads, is of course not only the personal merit of Sherman-Palladino, but Sutton Foster and Kelly Bishop. Both of them have quite serious dancing background. Another Sutton's and Kelly's merit is drollery atmosphere which these two awesome women create around themselves. Kelly plays Fanny Flowers, a small town dance studio owner, while Sutton portrays Michelle Simms, a cute dancer being caught in the lower point of the career, when series of questionable decisions had led her out of Las Vegas dancing scenes to small rural town Paradise, California where she met Fanny. There are more pry personalities in the series like talented and perfectly shaped Sasha (Julia Goldani Telles) and purposeful Bettina, aka Boo (Kaitlyn Jenkins). All the characters feature inexpressible chemistry between each other, and the spirit of the show is sweet, pleasurable and cuddlesome.

Breaking In

2021
Comedy & Humor
Previewing "Breaking In" for the press, star Brett Harrison suggested, "If you like "The A-Team", you'll like "Breaking In". If you like "The Office",'you'll like "Breaking In". And if you like breaking-in, you will like "Breaking In!". Harrison's observation proved strangely prophetic in at least two ways: First, the new Fox comedy does combine comic elements from "The Office" with "The A-Team's" dark, sarcastic point of view. Office humor"”there's just no such thing as too much. Second, the weak attempt at humor in Harrison's last line is sadly characteristic of the writing for "Breaking-In." Apparently, the B&E crowd lobbied for its own version of appointment viewing. Who knew? Although it's becoming this season's standard"”bad guys gone good, the premise nevertheless has promise. Five exceptionally skilled and highly specialized burglars team-up to operate Contra Security, a consulting firm that tests companies' security systems by breaking into them. Borrowing liberally from "Leverage" and "Breakout Kings," this wickedly bland team includes a hacker, a bad girl who can pick any lock, a semi-skilled con man, and a mysterious boss. First episode ratings may prophecy the sitcom's fate. Scheduled right after a big-big episode of "American Idol", "Breaking In" carried approximately 19 million viewers into its time-slot; by the end of its half-hour, 12 million of them had tuned-in elsewhere.
