Run, Lucille Bluth, Run!

Run from that mess known as "90210" before it's too fucking late! Just make sure not to spill a drop of your delicious cocktail. You don't want to waste any of life's precious nectar.

So....Lucille Bluth aka Jessica Walter is just one of the stars of The CW's "90210," which premieres September 2nd. The network has decided not to send out screeners for the show to reporters and critics. I guess it's highly unusual not to send out copies before a show's premiere. This basically means it sucks harder than that slut Kelly Taylor at a frat party.

The network said it's a "strategic marketing decision." They went on to say, "We're not hiding anything . We're simply keeping a lid on 90210 until 9.02, riding the curiosity and anticipation into premiere night, and letting all our constituents see it at the same time."

I haven't seen this fuckery and I already know what my review is going to be: "MORE BRENDA! MORE LUCILLE BLUTH!"

I mean, the poster for the show is a bunch of kids in a pool. Kids in a pool = floating shit. That says it all.

one of lucille's best interactions on arrested development.

Michael: mom would you like something to drink?
Lucille: vodka. on the rocks.
Michael: but its...breakfast.
Lucille: (sneers) and a piece of toast.

If they don't send out screeners to critics (goes for both movies and TV), you can bet it's something they're likely ashamed of and truly not meant to be taken seriously...like "Epic Movie" and "Meet the Spartans".

She needs to run away from this project fast! Long live Lucille Bluth.... "Oh, please. I’ve been drinking since before you were born. So if alcohol’s the reason I’m here, I got news for you, bub, it’s the only reason you’re here, too."

They better follow through with the Arrested Development movie that they have slated, I'm waiting with bated breath. Jessica is hot shit and deserves better material than this 90210 crap.

@ Your Mom...

Thanks for the sanity check. I've given up on scripted television and this is a good example why. I'm going to try "My Name Is Earl. A friend of mine told me I would be able to relate to that show because of my hubby's ex and her baby daddy. The man is lacking some common sense and living in a trailer park ain't helping his influences either.

-----------------------

lol...no problem. My Name Is Earl is a great show that I would definitely recommend--I think you'll enjoy it.

I actually have a feeling the show is going to be better than a lot of people think.

For one thing, the producers of the show also produced Freaks and Geeks, and Life As We Know It....both of which were excellent shows.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MMMMMMMMMM, there could be some potential. On the other hand, those producers have been in Hollywood for several years now and may have sold their souls to the devil by now.
We'll see.

I'm not watching this trainwreck, I'm letting MK and the Sluts fill me in.

Remember that episode of Married... With Children when Kelly was reading TV Guide and pronounced the show "Beverly Hills, ninety-thousand, two hundred and ten" and assumed it was a show about the future?

She's still smarter than this new show.

Don't forget Jessica Lange! Although I think she's close to 60 by now.

I seem to know more "older" Jessicas then younger ones.

they should totally put it off a couple years so it starts on 9/02/10... DUH i mean if they are talking about strategic marketing decisions. we can wait a couple years for this junk if it at least has a perfectly timed opening date. right? right? right.

And yep, I still don't care about this 90210 remake. Any show that prioritizes Jennie Garth over Tori Spelling has no business being affiliated with 90210. Long live the Tori!

She is my favorite. I love her. I saw her profile on milllionaire personals site""""C e l e b C u p i d.c o m""""""" yesterday. It is said she is in relationship with a young handsome guy on that site now. Is she single again?

Poor Jessica Walter. From the inspired genius that was Arrested Development to the shiteous retread that is 90210. Oh well, she's cashing a paycheck.

And am I the only one who finds it odd that an almost 70-year-old-woman is named Jessica? To me that seems like a grandmother named Tiffani or something.
