Whether it be Happy Endings, Benched, or a myriad of really funny web videos, we’d hope that you’re familiar with the great Eliza Coupe and get ready for some series of her own.
ABC Studios and ABC Signature Studios have signed a deal for Coupe to develop her own projects.
Hopefully, we’ll get to see what Coupe is cooking up before too long, especially since we feel Benched was cancelled way too early.
While Friends of The People is premiering tonight over at truTV, USA is also having their own series premiere of Benched.
While a comedy following lawyers might be not enough to get you hooked, a star lawyer fallen from grace/a high rise to being a public defender starring Eliza Coupe and Jay Harrington also featuring the likes of Maria Bamford and Oscar Nunez should be enough to get you to watch this premiere.
So, check out/set your DVRs (in case you want to catch premiere of Friends of the People that airs at the same time) Benched at 10:30PM on USA Network.
USA Network might have a great new comedy series on its hands with the upcoming Benched following the fall of a high powered corporate lawyer to being a public defender. The cast is pretty stellar with the likes of Eliza Coupe starring and a supporting cast including Oscar Nunez and Maria Bamford.
Also, this preview clip showcasing one, fine meltdown from Coupe might just have us hooked. Benched premieres Tues. Oct. 28th at 10:30PM on the USA Network.
In the latest episode of Emily Heller’s tarot card “reading” web series The Future at Above Average, Emily takes a little bit of hallucinogenic courage via mushrooms before taking on her latest client, the very funny Eliza Coupe. Unfortunately, one of the last things you want to see on shrooms is tarot cards.
This week, Eliza Coupe joined Pete Holmes on a couch and gabbed it up on The Pete Holmes Show. This interview makes us think that more interviews should been done in pajamas or just be gabbin’ rather than reading questions off a blue card.
Rob Gleeson & Eliza Coupe to Join House of Lies
The very funny Rob Gleeson and Eliza Coupe (Happy Endings) are the latest to join Showtime’s House of Lies for recurring roles, which already has a stellar cast in Don Cheadle, Ben Schwartz, and Kristen Bell.
So, maybe we should all check out the third season in Jan. 2014.

Here’s another case of an indie comedy getting another delightful ensemble of a cast that has the potential to be a dark horse of a movie if it ever see a theatrical release.
This sort of makes us curious if indie comedy are greenlit, not so much on the main cast, but on how many cameos of really funny people they can get attached on their project nowadays.
