Nikki Finke & Bryan Lourd, Together In Song
Hey Morgan!, the Matt Shakman-directed musical that opens at the Black Dahlia Theatre in Los Angeles on October 15, has released a sample song (audio below) that conveys a real insider’s take on the Hollywood agency game. The song, “(I Gave My Heart To) CAA”, is a catchy tune from the show that captures the frustration of a young woman’s attempt to rise to the rank of agent. Written by Matt Fogel and Isaac Laskin, the song drips with sarcasm. But how can you not like a tune that works the names of Nikki Finke and Bryan Lourd into its lyrics? But call a fact checker –because the heroine sings of wanting to be an agent at CAA so she could rep Michael Bay. Of course, Bay is repped by WME, but that doesn’trhyme.

Bravo Sets Real Regular folks of Atlanta Premiere Date
The Chew Jeers for the Chew due to its unappetizingly overstuffed premiere.Want more Cheers & Jeers? Subscribe to TV Guide Magazine now!Even though among its five cohosts oddly didn't attend the opening of ABC's The Kids-killing chat 'n chew - Mario Batali briefly came out via satellite in the charitable organization golf tournament in Jersey City - the table still felt way too overcrowded. In this culinary fake in the View, More to Wear's Clinton Kelly made an appearance irritatingly shoehorned into the Whoopi Goldberg sassy-moderator role. And merely just in case you missed the fact "all around health expert" Daphne Oz is Dr. Oz's daughter the initial ten occasions they stated it, the truly amazing physician themselves switched up for just about any "surprise" cameo to declare how proud he's of his lately youthful girl (she lost 25 pounds, and her weight-loss secrets were also packed lower viewers' throats).Meanwhile, Top Chef's Carla Hall and Iron Chef's Michael Symon (all of whom introduced their moms for the show) tried to out lower-home each other: Symon cooked cheap-and-easy pork and beans, while Hall introduced the thought of "Gon' Bes": quality quality recipes gone wrong that, she assured us, are "gon' be OK." Sooner or later maybe we'll be capable of exactly the same in regards to the Chew, if they'd like to trim your body body fat within the cast, lessen the cornball forced merriment and throw a few less elements into the proverbial pot.What's your consider the Chew?Subscribe to TV Guide Magazine now!
