Rush

Peter Oberth — Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:57:46 +0000

USA’s new original series RUSH stars Tom Ellis (“Miranda”) as renegade physician Dr. William P. Rush, a “medical fixer” who privately caters to the elite of Los Angeles for a hefty price tag… but he didn’t always practice this type of medicine.

A few short years ago, Rush was a top attending surgeon at a prominent LA hospital. Working alongside his father, Dr. Warren Rush (Harry Hamlin), and his best friend, Alex (Larenz Tate), Rush’s career was on a promising track. On top of that, he was in love with his beautiful colleague Sarah Peterson (Odette Annable). But one fateful night, his world came crashing down. His position at the hospital was terminated, his relationship with his father combusted, and Sarah left him. Through everything, Alex was the only one to stay by his side. Shortly after, Rush began a private doctor service, treating his less-than-squeaky-clean clientele with no judgment or attachment.

The series picks up six years later, Rush’s unorthodox business thriving with the help of his savvy assistant Eve (Sarah Habel). And with Sarah in Los Angeles once again, Rush tries everything in his charming bad boy arsenal to get her back. It’s challenging to pursue an ex while on a strict regimen of substance abuse and navigating the medical needs of actors, gangsters, life coaches, bounty hunters, musicians, and other troubled inhabitants of Los Angeles. When Alex risks his career to help Rush out of a bind, their friendship is put to the test. To set things right, Rush opens a door he wanted to keep shut; reaching out to a well-respected physician - his estranged father.

From Fox21 (“Homeland”) and writer/director Jonathan Levine (“Warm Bodies,” “50/50”), along with Gina Matthews and Grant Scharbo (“Missing,” “13 Going on 30”) and Executive Producers Adam Fierro (“The Shield”) and Craig Wright ("Dirty Sexy Money," "Six Feet Under").

Doctor’s Orders – You’ve been working too hard, and it’s time to focus on you. You know better than to argue with Rush, so sit back and relax – and let us treat you a little bit.

If you find yourself needing a little more support, you can always find your friend #RUSHonUSA, Thursdays at 9/8c.

Thundershorts

Peter Oberth — Thu, 07 Aug 2014 16:43:27 +0000

It's never been tried before, but what if there were funny videos... online? Thundershorts, a unique, free streaming video site, is now live from SnagFilms, the award-winning video platform and 2014 Webby® finalist. Featuring original comedy shorts and episodes, the new site will initially debut seven exclusive series: “American Viral”, about one family’s outlandish attempts to recapture its YouTube fame; “Teachers Lounge”, featuring a bevy of A-list cameos, “Gabe & Max Need Help” which finds longtime friends and comedians Gabe Delahaye and Max Silvestri in couples counseling led by Kumail Nanjiani, “Don’t Walk,” a hilarious real-time adventure taking place entirely on New York City’s street corners, and three series starring up-and-coming comedy stars: “Timeless Seasons”, “Augie, Alone” and “Loo Makes It Big”. The series, available to viewers at no cost, will premiere exclusively on Thundershorts.com and all SnagFilms supported devices, including their award-winning, multi-platform app.

The initial slate of short-form comedy includes:

“American Viral” (Season One, 5 episodes, 4-7 mins. each) – In the vein of dysfunctional ensemble comedies such as “Arrested Development” comes this zeitgeisty sitcom about a family desperately trying to recapture the fame they achieved when a YouTube video of their son went viral. To that end, the shameless patriarch, Roger Busk (Michael Showalter), will stop at nothing to exploit his family. Showalter is well-known to comedy fans for his stints in the sketch comedy troupes and TV shows “The State” and “Stella”, as well as for writing and starring in cult-classic Wet Hot American Summer and his smash web series “Michael Showalter Showalter”; he also wrote this summer’s They Came Together, starring Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler. Co-starring Zandy Hartig (They Came Together, “Children’s Hospital”) as Mimi Busk, the series also features Janeane Garofalo (“Inside Amy Schumer”, Bravo’s upcoming “Girlfriend’s Guide to Divorce”), actor/director David Wain (They Came Together, Wet Hot American Summer) and Steve Agee (“New Girl”, “Community”). “American Viral” was created and directed by Shandor Garrison, AnnaRose King and Jennifer Suhr and produced by Carolyn Mao.

“Teachers Lounge” (Season One, 10 episodes, 4-7 mins. each) – Ever wonder what goes on behind that mysterious “Teachers Lounge” door? This summer, pull up a small, uncomfortable metal chair for this hilarious, fly-on-the-wall look at the goings-on of a New York City elementary school. Created by and starring comedians Ted Alexandro (“Late Night with Conan O’Brien”, “Inside Amy Schumer”) and Hollis James as a music teacher and janitor, respectively, the series follows their interactions with bizarre coworkers, including teachers and administrators played by A-list comedians Jim Gaffigan, Dave Attell, Jim Norton, Todd Barry and Michael Che, with Janeane Garofolo as…the PA Announcer..

“Gabe & Max Need Help” (Season One, 4 episodes, 4-6 mins. each) – Where do friends turn when they have problems? Most wouldn’t jump right into therapy, but for longtime friends/comedians Gabe Delahaye and Max Silvestri, couples counseling just seemed right. Join the best-friend couple and their therapist (Kumail Nanjiani, “Silicon Valley”, “Portlandia”, “Veep”) as they tussle with hot-button relationship issues such as yogurt thievery. Gabe & Max was created by NY-based comedian Silvestri, a creative consultant on Funny of Die’s “Billy on the Street”, soon to be appearing in FYI’s “The Feed” with Marcus Samuelsson and Gail Simmons, and named by New York Magazine as one of the “Ten Comedians People Find Funny”; and Delahaye, an LA-based writer/comedian who has written for and appeared on Videogum, This American Life, McSweeny’s, Gawker, Funny or Die and Comedy Central.

“Don’t Walk” (Season One, 9 episodes, 1-2 mins. each) – Each episode is a mini-sitcom that takes place on a New York street corner during the time the "Don’t Walk" sign is illuminated. Following the main character (Max Silvestri, “Gabe & Max Need Help”), a guileless, friendly Midwestern transplant who is deathly afraid of jaywalking, “Don’t Walk” takes us along on the journey to his first day of work. Every street corner in New York is a new world populated by strange characters and unexpected adventures. “Don’t Walk” was created, written and shot by

New York writers Kemp Baldwin, Gates Bradley and Mike Laskasky.

Thundershorts will also be the exclusive home to three series welcoming up-and-coming comedy talent: “Timeless Seasons”, “Augie, Alone” and “Loo Makes It Big”. “Timeless Seasons,” created by and starring Sundance Institute fellow Hannah Bos, Tonya Glanz (“The Good Wife,” “Nurse Jackie”) and Amy Heidt (“A Problem Like Maria”), is home shopping network meets David Lynch meets your new scrapbooking stepmother. In “Augie, Alone”, created by and starring award-winning NYC writer Lee August Praley, we follow the titular character as he traverses the inanities of everyday life and records it all, mostly alone. With her heart in the arts, her head in the clouds and a passion for attention, “Loo Makes It Big” is brought to life in glorious Technicolor by comedian / filmmaker Marcie Hume. One way or another, Loo is going to be a star, a bright shiny star!

The first episodes of “American Viral”, “Teachers Lounge”, “Gabe & Max Need Help”, and “Don’t Walk” all premiered on June 26, with remaining Season One episodes debuting on a weekly basis after June 26. All other Thundershorts Exclusives launched on June 26 for binge-viewing.

The World Wars

Peter Oberth — Mon, 12 May 2014 15:51:14 +0000

An assassination in Sarajevo sparks a global war. For the next 30 years, deadly fighting rages across Europe, Africa, China and the Pacific.

Hitler. Churchill. De Gaulle. MacArthur. Patton. Stalin. Mussolini. We know them as legends. But they first learn what it will take to rise to greatness as young soldiers, fighting for their lives on the frontlines.

This is the story of a generation of men who come of age in the trenches of World War I, only to become the leaders of World War II. The lessons they learn on the frontlines shape them as they rise to power—and haunt them as the deadly fighting breaks out again. Some become heroes, forged in courage under fire. Others emerge as the most infamous villains the world has ever seen.

Theirs is one story—the story of a 30-year global struggle. A fight that will either save the world—or destroy it.

Narrated by two-time Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner (The Hurt Locker, The Town), this three-night event series features gripping dramatic scenes, stunning CGI visuals and interviews with contemporary leaders, including John McCain, Colin Powell, John Major and David Miliband, along with noted historians from around the world. The World Wars is a mini-series event that takes viewers on an epic and groundbreaking ride through the bloodiest century in history.

HISTORY has partnered with QuizUp, the biggest trivia game in the world, to provide fans with 300 brand new questions associated with the show and the chance to enter to win a grand prize that will be announced on May 17 when the new quiz makes its debut! You can download the app (https://quizup.com/en)and starting playing May 17th!

Chrisley Knows Best

Peter Oberth — Fri, 14 Mar 2014 15:09:05 +0000

Todd Chrisley stars in the USA Network new reality series CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST, which makes its series debut on Tuesday, March 11 at 10/9c on USA.

The patriarch of the Chrisley family, Todd is a self-made millionaire and successful entrepreneur. Born in Georgia and raised in Westminster, SC – Todd and his wife of nearly 18 years, Julie, raise their five children in the suburbs of Atlanta. Todd Chrisley isn’t your typical father. Brash and outspoken with a razor sharp southern wit and remarkable ability to dish insults, he keeps the family in line through his tough and at times brutally honest form of parenting. Todd runs his family just like his business – with an iron fist – and micromanages every move and expenditure made by each member of the Chrisley clan. A “patriarch of perfection,” Todd believes that he has all the answers. As Todd often jokes to his children, he’s “already been there, done that, and got the tee-shirt.”
