That funny, tall pasty ginger we love so dearly, Conan O'Brien, has sold a comedy project called Fat Chance to TBS. The project being developed by Conan O'Brien's company Conaco and Warner Horizon Television is a half-hour sitcom about two best friends whose lives are impacted when a beautiful woman (Alex) enters it.

One friend, Chance Hubbard is overweight while his BFF, Rollie is apparently 'incredibly good-looking'. There is no word as of yet who the actors are playing the characters but if Conan is behind this it's worth seeing in my books.

The show is being executive produced by Jeff Ross (of Conan fame) and David Kissinger who you may know from Eagleheart, Andy Barker and P.I.

Tony Kaye's Detachment is coming soon to theaters as well as VOD and DVD. Woot! I admittedly have an Adrian Brody 'jones', so I have been awaiting some word on this since it played the Tribeca Film Festival last Spring. Both star and director (whose American History Xreinvented Edward Norton and is a modern classic) got very good notices.  

The 'film' is directed by John Luessenhop whose last film was the better than expected Takers, although The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D will suffer from a complete lack of Idris Elba. Rather than another remake, this one is a sequel to Tobe Hooper's 1973 'gore classic' and continues the escapades of Leatherface several decades later, while ignoring all of the sequels and remakes and anything that happened in between. The cast includes horror veteran Bill Moseley, Trey Songz and Gunnar Hansen, the original Leatherface.

Shannen Doherty looked absolutely breathtakingly beautiful on her wedding day in her Monique Lhuillier wedding gown. Even she couldn't deny its beauty:

"There was no question. The moment I saw it, I knew it was my dress," Doherty says of her first Monique Lhuillier gown, which featured a sweetheart bodice and a garnet sash. "I felt like a fairytale princess."

Shannen also jumped on this latest celebrity trend of having three wedding dresses during her wedding (think Kim Kardashian and Shannon Tweed Simmons). Her second Lhuillier gown: "was blush with lots and lots of tulle" and the third dress (knee-length) was probably the most sentimental:

"I took the lace from my mom's wedding gown, designed a dress and had it made,"  "It was my get-down and be-sexy bridal dress!"

The groom, Kurt Iswarienko also changed each time Shannen did. But not his suit, just his tie which was all his own idea. Actually that's pretty cute if you ask me.

London Boulevard is the directorial debut of screenwriter William Monahan (The Departed) and based on a novel by Ken Bruen. It's the story of a man newly released from prison (Colin Farrell) who falls in love with a reclusive young movie star (Keira Knightley) and finds himself in a duel with a vicious gangster (the incomparable Ray Winstone). Aside from the fact that Knightley's character was written as an older woman, they did a pretty good job of adapting the book. Take a look.

If you like Brit gangster flicks, and I love them, then you'll enjoy this. It's had a rough time getting US distribution but IFC Films has finally picked it up. It's actually playing on VOD right now (which is where I saw it last weekend. I've been waiting for this for ages!), but it will get a theatrical release starting November 11. London Boulevard also stars Eddie Marsan, Ben Chaplin and Anna Friel.
