Hans Rosemond (aka Lloyd on STBD) turned 30 this weekend, which -- as is expected around "major birthdays" -- led to a bit of soul-searching on his part. Having recently turned 30 myself, I know the drill: 1) Realize Orson Welles directed Citizen Kane when he was 25. 2) Realize you haven't, and you're 30. 3) Drink a lot. Old Is the New Young Traditionally, actors tend to be a few years older

The good news: on my way home from business in Connecticut, I'm staying overnight at the home of Dan Stripp (aka Jack Boyd on early seasons of Something to Be Desired). The bad news (for STBD fans): There will be no Jack Boyd holiday cameo filmed here. Sorry. Unless you're REALLY good. But even then, probably not. Maybe.

I stumbled across a blog by Ken Levine, a veteran TV writer (MASH, Cheers, etc.). In his most recent post, he discusses the making of his favorite MASH episode, "POV." The story was told entirely from the first-person POV of a wounded soldier, who encounters all the show's regulars as they work to heal him. In the preceding post, Levine includes an excerpt from that episode's script, as well as

Erik Schark (aka Rich on STBD) and Rick Hertzig (aka Glenn) each noticed this bit of news today: Something to Be Desired is featured on Yahoo video's homepage, in both the "Channels" AND "Featured Videos" section -- which we think is very cool. Interestingly, it just so happens that the main video being featured today on Yahoo is iJustine's new "MAC Workout" video. That means STBD and iJustine -

The "Light-Up Night" episode was a great opportunity for us to showcase Downtown Pittsburgh in all its festive holiday glory... and to wrap up a loose end or two. The Making of "Light-Up Night" involved: - 7 scripted pages - 5 improvised scenes - 60 minutes of raw footage - 2 shoots over 24 hours - 2 voiceovers - 12+ hours of editing Fun Facts, Scene by Scene: * Caroline (aka Ann Turiano

Today is a travel day for me, even as I edit STBD 5-10. Oddly enough, I'm about 3 hours away from having it done, but I have to leave for the airport in an hour (hello, Thanksgiving week travel delays)... which means the episode will be completed somewhere between Pittsburgh and Fairfield, CT, and uploaded as wifi allows. For all intents and purposes, I expect to post the episode around 9 PM,

Several of the STBD cast members will be on-hand for a live, semi-improvised shoot during Light-Up Night this Friday in downtown Pittsburgh. Rumor has it that veteran podcaster C.C. Chapman might be in town from Boston that night and making an STBD cameo appearance as well. If you'll be downtown for light-up night, keep your eyes open for Caroline, Tabitha and the rest of the STBD cast! Say

The "Car Trouble" episode is a classic example of the STBD cast being able to create a solid episode even everything else goes wrong... The Making of "Car Trouble" involved: - 9 scripted pages - 2 largely improvised scenes - 48 minutes of raw footage - 3 shoots over 24 hours - 12+ hours of editing Fun Facts, Scene by Scene: * This episode wasn't even supposed to happen.
