CBS Makes DealsCraig Ferguson and his production company Green Mountain West, helmed by the always delightful Rebecca Tucker, are celebrating this weekend after selling two situation comedy projects to CBS. As Deadline.com first reported, the shows are in development, each headed by an executive producer/writer with previous credits on the network. As is often the case in Hollywood, this is just one step in a long road to getting the shows produced. The deal does not mean CBS has agreed to air the new shows, only that it is putting some financial weight behind them as they are developed. A pilot script for each will be written, the shows could be preliminarily cast and a pilot episode could be shot in the coming months. We’ll keep you posted!
Getting Ready for Craig
Carlisle, Pennsylvania’s The Sentinel and Stamford’s ConnecticutPlus.com are report on Craig’s upcoming stops in the northeast.
Funny FruitAs was noted on the show earlier this week, some of the more exotic fruits on Craig’s desk could be mistaken for other things, including the famous drawn-on hand puppet “Johnny” of ventriloquist Señor Wences. The RSA’s @hoborobot created an image to note the resemblance. And here is a clip of Señor Wences performing one of his classic routines.
Tweetmail Fun
