April 4, 2022

Many of you reading this grew up with her loud and proud characters on SNL. While Mary Katherine Gallagher did help launch Molly into the national spotlight, she has done so much brilliant work since then including her roles as a very dedicated mother in Other People, The Other Two, and The White Lotus. Molly also seems far from done being in her prime whether that involves playing a mom or not in either a comedy or a drama or something else altogether.

So, naturally, you might be interested in a memoir in the many winding roads she has had in comedy and entertainment. Hello Molly!: A Memoir is that very book and Molly is embarking on an in-person book tour right now. The LA date, presented by one of LA’s favorite bookstores, Book Soup, will not only have Molly sharing her journey with the book, but also feature the one and only John C. Reilly in conversation at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre on Wed. Apr. 20th at 7PM PT.

Tickets are $38 and you’ll get one hardcover copy of Hello Molly!: A Memoir plus a signed bookplate. Go get ’em here.

Showtime Orders Up Astronaut Workplace Comedy “Moonbase 8” With Armisen, Heidecker, and Reilly

Joining in with Space Force and Avenue 5, there is going to be another space-centric workplace-ish comedy, time time coming from Showtime. Entitled Moonbase 8, it comes from the minds of series stars Fred Armisen, Tim Heidecker, and John C. Reilly and Jonathan Krisel who was instrumental to Baskets and Portlandia behind the camera.

Is it a trend of not-so-distant-future live action workplace comedy that is coming? It might be too early to tell, but three of them (and countless others that are undoubtedly in development) certainly signals networks sharing in a vision with their programming/development slates.

The quartet of Armisen, Heidecker, C. Reilly, and Krisel does excite us to think of a subtle, yet out-there comedy that tangles with the strangeness, in their own niche of strangeness, of attempting to go to the final frontier. Moonbase 8 is set to premiere in the fall and, with A24 attached, we can’t wait to see what super-stylish look they come up with for this.
