It’s a perfect day for letting go
I’ve been listening to The Cure lately, but then again, when haven’t I?
Alright. The second Wednesday has gone by without Eastwick, so it should be returning next week. For those of you who read this and are curious, no it hasn’t been completely canceled yet. The show will still (for now) run through the rest of the episodes which were filmed. If my count is correct, there are six more episodes to be shown, and then that will be it. So it hasn’t been canceled as much as it just hasn’t been continued.
It’s also been brought to my attention that there is an effort in progress to get ABC to pick the show back up. I personally don’t think these online efforts do much, but it can’t hurt to try, right? You can go the the @SaveEastwick twitter page and from there follow links to sign the online petition, or link through to the ABC feedback page and you can write about your desire for the show to continue.
Other than that… I don’t really have much to post here. Henry’s Crime is, maybe, being filmed partially in Buffalo here in WNY. But that’s really got nothing to do with Sara Rue, does it? But this does. Here’s a clip from the last episode of Eastwick, mentioning Keanu Reeves, who happens to be starring in Henry’s Crime. So it all works out then. Cool.
/media/eastwick04.mp4Fun stuff!
First off, from twitter:
RT @SARARUEFORREAL Um !! Lukan B kinda rules! Im just sayin’!! I think he is my biggest fan !! SO SWEET!!! Holy Crap!!!! Thanks Lukan!! AKA-@SaraRueFan cute!!!
I don’t know what prompted the tweet from Sara Rue (if she saw the site or just recent posts on the twitter account, etc. ), but it’s super sweet and super cool of her to say that. To say that this surprised me would be a HUGE understatement, though it was an excellent surprise indeed.
So… Where to start? Well, I guess I already did up there. It’s been quite some time since I last posted anything. I believe two episodes of Eastwick have gone by, both featuring a brief little musical number with Sara and costar Lindsay Price. Here’s a quick sample for those who may have missed it and for some reason haven’t gone to ABC.com to watch it:
/media/eastwick02.mp4I’ve also gone into my archives and decided to share one of my favorite audio clips of Sara. This is from an episode (it’s still an episode if it’s on radio, right?) of Love Line from just over 6 years ago. This aired on September 28, 2003. One of my favorite comedic parts of the show. I hope everyone else enjoys it as well:
I’m not sure about adding an audio section, as I don’t have much that’s audio only, so I don’t know if I’ll find a permanent place for that little tidbit on the site.
I’ve also scanned an article from Parade Magazine that I’ve had laying around for a bit. It’s from 2003, so it’s mostly about Sara’s show ‘Less Than Perfect’. I tried to keep it a decent size and still readable, so hopefully it is. Click the pic to see full size:
And finally, there’s been an official trailer released for the movie ‘Not Since You’. If you have facebook, you can watch it at the Not Since You facebook page. In case you don’t, you can watch a smaller version of the trailer right here:
/media/notsinceyoutrlr.mp4Alright then. I believe that’s enough for now. I have a few other things I could add, but this is enough for today’s post. Don’t forget to watch the next episode of Eastwick Wednesday night on ABC! Until next time…
Eastwick Impressions
I just watched Eastwick, and here are a few things that I thought of it.
The beginning was fun. It was light-hearted, fairly fast paced, and most of the jokes seemed to be crammed into the few minutes that it spanned. Also we got to see Sara Rue, so… bonus.
The rest of the show seemed kind of… I don’t know. It slowed down a LOT after the beginning sequence of scenes. THere were also a few lines that made no sense to me. The one that stands out to me is Rebecca Romjin saying, “What a weird day. Would you ladies like to get drunk?” This stands out because not enough had happened in my mind to consider it a ‘weird’ day, and the ‘drunk’ line makes no sense to me at the point where it’s said.
After this, things seem to go at the same general pace from there on, so I wasn’t very interested. Then again, I’m sure 30 year old males aren’t exactly the key demographic for this show. Here’s to hoping that the show get funnier as it goes, because I’d like to laugh before I head off for bed.
I’m not going to spend more time criticizing the show, because this isn’t that sort of site. So… Here’s a clip from the intro with Sara Rue as Penny and Lindsay Price as, ummm (checking IMDB), Joanna. Hopefully the episode will be available to watch on ABC.com soon, so keep an eye over there for it to show up in case you missed it.

Hey Sara Rue fans! I’ve just added a couple clips from the movie Idiocracy to the site’s video section. I’ve been sitting on this for a while now since she has such a small role in the movie, but I think these are the best clips with her at least talking instead of just being pretty and not saying anything. Here’s one of the clips:
/media/idiocracy02.mp4Don’t forget that Sara is supposed to be on House Arrest with Andy Dick on the 30th. I’ll be posting a link to the video as soon as it is up and probably hosting the video here as well in case anyone loses or can’t find the link.
Also, just for fun, here’s a quick list of releases I’m waiting for. Things that Sara Rue has/will be in but have yet to either be completed, released, written or filmed:
Dream Crushers, Not Since You, Eastwick, and For Christ’s Sake.
A few new pics and reminder
Posted a few new pics in the gallery section. These feature Sara Rue, Lindsay Price, and Jamie Ray Newman (all from the new Eastwick).
Also, don’t forget that Less Than Perfect is starting on Lifetime tomorrow (Monday the 1st). It’s seems that they’re showing two random episodes during the 9AM – 10AM slot, but then will be showing all of the episodes in order during the 6PM-7:PM slot. So, set your dvr/pvr devices, and get ready for some good laughs!
New pictures
Posted some new pics in the gallery. Recent shots from the new Eastwick show Sara was cast as Penny in. A quick sample:
Update: Fixed the images so they’re higher res and look slightly better. They’re not small (one is ~500kb) but I say it’s worth it.
