Get Your First Look at Season 3 of Black Monday
April 30, 2021
News
andrew rannells, black monday, casey wilson, don cheadle, regina hall, season 3, showtime, yassir lester

One of the wildest and darkest sitcoms on television, Black Monday, is set to return for its third season near the end of May as well as kick it into the 90s. Maurice and the rest of his ragtag stock market troublemakers are back together again (and so is all the chaos that follows them). They are spectacularly dressed in 90s style from head-to-toe though.

In fact, there’s never been a better time to see the absurdity of pure capitalism at work than now, which makes Black Monday kind of a perfect show for these times.

Get your first gander of Season 3 of Black Monday with the official trailer here, then look for the season 3 premiere on Sun. May 23rd 10PM on Showtime.

We sincerely hope that, at this point, there’s something that you’ve come across in the work of Casey Wilson that you’ve loved. Happy Endings, Hotwives, Bitch Sesh, and so much more have brought Wilson to have such an extensive, cherished career ini comedy. Thus, she wrote a whole collection of essays about her time through all of it that’s lovingly called The Wreckage of My Presence. It’s set for release on May 4th, but you can (and should) pre-order here.

Of course, she’s going to do a book tour, but as a certain pandemic is still happening, it’ll have to be virtual. However, that’s an opportunity to support many lovely bookstores/venues/festivals as well as source out a very stacked collection of special guests as you can see below.

4/29 with June Diane Raphael
5/4 with Kristen Wiig via Skylight Books/Dynasty Typewriter
5/5 with Ziwe via Greenlight Booksttore
5/6 with Adam Pally via Sixth & I
5/12 with Jessi Klein and Andrew Rannells via Chicago Humanities Festival

Just from those few dates, that’s one hell of a book tour and you should go to any or all of these book release events for The Wreckage of My Presence.

The Pack Theater’s awesome biographical sketch show Biodome has a very, very special guest this month: Casey Wilson (Happy Endings, Hotwives). As always, the Biodome team (Sam Brown, Jed Alcantara, Niv Brook, Elizabeth Hayhurst, Jesse Arlen Klein, Angela McLafferty, Elyssa Phillips, Cameron Rice, and Jasper Sams) does a bang up job making sketches of various stories of the lives of their guests and this should be a pretty swell one (just listen to Casey’s ep. of Need to Fail).

Biodome with Casey Wilson will happen this Fri., Oct. 11th at 9PM at the Pack Theater and (as always is the case with the Pack), admission is pay what you can.

Hulu Developing ‘Unhinged’ from Casey Wilson & June Diane Raphael

Hulu Developing ‘Unhinged’ from Casey Wilson & June Diane Raphael

One way or another, we will get another TV show with Casey Wilson and June Diane Raphael involved. 

You’ve seen Wilson and Raphael go at each other in Hot Wives and now they have teamed up along with accomplished veteran comedy writer/producer John Riggi (30 Rock, The Larry Sanders Show) to make a show following a suburban middle-aged woman, potentially played by Casey, who has had enough with society’s roles for women and opts to lash out. 

Called Unhinged, it would pair up nicely with Difficult People over at Hulu.

(via Variety)

Not only is it a sitcom following an ex-convict, but one that ends up being an in-home health aide.

The great comedic forces of Elizabeth Laime, Casey Wilson, and June Diane Raphael are coming together for an intriguing addition to ABC’s comedy development slate. Laime is writing what is called Crystal and Wilson and Raphael are attached as producers, which serves as good cause to keep a close eye on this project.

Hopefully, we won’t be getting our hopes in vain like we did when ABC had a pilot with June Diane Raphael, Kristen Schaal, and Jenny Slate.

One of the best satires of reality TV is back in a whole new city just like the Real Housewives series has done time and time again.

Look for a whole new set of hotwives with the returning cast of Casey Wilson, Dannah Phirman, Danielle Schneider, Andrea Savage, Angela Kinsey, and Tymberlee Hill returning as Phe Phe from Hotwives of Orlando on Aug. 18th on Hulu.

Scheer-RL Visits Casey Wilson and Eminem’s First Time on TRL and That Time P. Diddy Tried To Run a Marathon

Paul Scheer’s recreation of some of the craziest episodes of MTV’s Total Request Live continues on Scheer-RL with awkward conversations between host Carson Daly and guests who had, at the time, never been on TRL before like Celine Dion and Eminem paired with Mark Wahlberg. There was also a time where P. Diddy ran on a treadmill during an interview in preparation for running a marathon.

On top of that, Casey Wilson plays Celine Dion, Terry Crews and Katie Lowes play P. Diddy and Britney Spears, and Randall Park and Joe Lo Truglio play Eminem and Mark Wahlberg, which turns out to be as ridiculous and great as you think it would be.

Last week, we reported the good news that Hotwives of Orlando was getting a second season over at Hulu. At the time, we were under the impression that there was going to be a whole new cast, but, Casey Wilson, who plays one of the central Hotwives, revealed on Late Night with Seth Meyers this week that the cast is returning and only their characters will be different for Hotwives of Las Vegas.

So, that means the fantastic cast of Casey, Danielle Schneider, Kristen Schaal, Tymberlee Hill, Andrea Savage, and Angela Kinsey are all returning. 

We’ll be looking forward to “no drama” very soon.

Hulu’s ‘The Hotwives of Orlando’ Premieres July 15

Erinn Hayes makes a great addition to what we had a feeling would be a great pilot from Casey Wilson and June Diane Raphael, which one of a few projects that is making a solid case for NBC’s development slate right now.

Another such NBC pilot is one with Casey Wilson is starring in it, which we think is a solid move on their part.

Based off how much their names have been in the trades and the deals they have signed, it was only a matter of a little time before the great June Diane Raphael and Casey Wilson sold a pilot to a network especially with the deal that had ABC in place.

Along with Jonathan Groff (Happy Endings), Raphael and Wilson now have sold a pilot as well as have a movie coming out in Ass Backwards.
