From Deadline Hollywood: “HBO is teaming with Will Ferrell and Adam McKay’s Gary Sanchez and actress Lizzy Caplan to develop a comedy series project based on actress/writer Julie Klausner’s memoir I Don’t Care About Your Band.” Whoa!

Party Down Season 2

The second season of Party Down begins tonight on Starz. Which is great news for the 10 people who actually subscribe to Starz. But for the rest of us, there is still good news, which is that you can watch the first episode online RIGHT NOW! It’s our party, we deserve to enjoy it. (Get it? You SHOULD get it!)

Are you watching Party Down yet? This Friday, the funniest show currently on TV has its Season 1 finale. Here’s a clip of Jennifer Coolidge (Bobbie) explaining why she accidentally made “that Nazi thing” out of a tray of appetizers:

Party Down, guys. Every single person who has watched it because I told them to has loved it and thanked me. Watch it, then tell other people to watch it, and then bask in the thanks! (Just do not watch with your parents.)

Party Down: The Original Pitch Video

In celebration of Party Down‘s Season 2 renewal, here’s the video that co-creator Rob Thomas made to pitch the show to networks before it was eventually bought by Starz. It has a lot of familiar stuff from the pilot, but in some cases, different actors (including Andrea Savage from Step Brothers in the role now played by Lizzy Caplan). Supposedly, they made this at Thomas’s house during the writer’s strike.

Party Down Is Probably Coming Back For Season 2

Co-creator Rob Thomas says in an interview that the best new show on TV, Party Down, looks like it will be renewed for a second season. First Eastbound And Down, now this. Good triumphs over evil, but only on pay cable.

It’s Time To Start Watching Party Down

Are you not watching the Paul Rudd-produced Starz original series Party Down? The one about the struggling actor cater waiters in LA, where each episode takes place at a different party? It’s okay, I was once like you until last weekend: thinking that a show on Starz couldn’t be that good because it was presumably rejected by HBO and Showtime, or thinking that a show that was available for free in its entirety online before the first episode even aired couldn’t be that good because we all like our comedy shows like we like our men or women: hard to get.

Or maybe you really love Paul Rudd, and were worried that if you actually watched the show and didn’t love it, something in your heart might change, a nearly imperceptible but un-ignorable switch would suddenly be pulled, and you could never appreciate PR the same way you did before. (Probably not, because that’s just my kind of crazy.)

ANYway, if you, like me, have neglected watching Party Down on any of the approximately 18 platforms upon which it is available to you, in some cases free of charge, don’t beat yourself up. It’s not too late to catch up on the funniest new show since Eastbound And Down. You should just trust me, but if all this isn’t enough, here are some overly sincere and gushy reasons why.
