BONES


Booth and Brennan question Morgan Fairchild's CEO character.


Time to question Morgan Fairchild again ...
   


She does not seem particularly cooperative.


 

Watch for Morgan in the hit FOX series BONES, Episode 7.3, entitled 'The Prince in the Plastic', to air on Thursday, Nov. 17, 2011 at 9pm.
Synopsis: As all expectant parents do, Brennan and Booth turn their minds to toys in "The Prince in the Plastic." Unlike most parents-to-be, however, their toy thoughts are mixed with murder when a body is connected to a toy company (and to its CEO, played by guest star Morgan Fairchild).


Doesn't she just look guilty?

 
 

WORKERS COMP

Independently Produced Comedy Pilot Gears For Production

By NELLIE ANDREEVA | Wednesday March 9, 2011 @ 3:39am PST
 

It's pilot season, and a slew of comedy pilots are getting ready for production. But a  half-hour project called Workers Comp is taking a different route to the small screen. First, it was written by two 19 year olds: Castille Landon and Harrison Sanborn.  Within weeks of them completing the script, the pilot was funded, with David Sauers (Taking Woodstock) and former Universal Studios legal exec Mark Wooster producing. It has now been fully cast and is set to begin production April 10 in Tampa, Fla. Morgan Fairchild leads the cast of the pilot, which also includes Robert Carradine, Charley Koontz, Castille Landon and Jennifer Lee Wiggins. Workers Comp is a workplace comedy about a family insurance business owned by Joan (Fairchild) and the often bizarre comp claims they are forced to manage. Fairchild is with Rebel and McGowan Mgmt; Koontz with Pakula/King and McGowan Mgmt; Carradine with Fortitude; and Wiggins and Landon with Liquid LQ.

We are promoting participation."
 


(Ann Curry, Tim Russert and Morgan)

Tim Russert was one of the kindest, most interesting people
I've had the pleasure of knowing.  The world of politics
and the world in general has lost a great soul.
