Thanks for the new thread.

Just catching up on the Matt sitcom news on NBC, since Lauren has a new deal with them any chance she'll be a part of it?

Occasional Wife might be interesting do we know what it's about?

[tidbit2008]

Not really. And, according to this article, Matthew isn't attached to it.

Despite reports to the contrary, pop star Britney Spears is not a contender for a role opposite Matthew Perry, in a new NBC comedy. A rep for NBC told Access Hollywood that an item in Liz Smith’s column in Variety, suggesting that the pop star was being looked at fora potential sitcom starring the former “Friends” actor, is “untrue.” Smith reported that Perry is “attached” to a comedy going by the title “Occasional Wife.” Smith also reported that an NBC head honcho told her, sometime before Spears’ 2007 MTV VMA’s performance that “there’s something about her that just connects with the audience, and they want her to succeed now in spite of her adversity.” However a publicist for the network told Access Hollywood, the report is false.

Oh right, I thought it meant Britney was not doing it.

I'd love it if Matt and Lauren could do something together, on screen

[tidbit2008]

Well, maybe I did read it wrong

If it's Matty and Lauren it might not be bad

[ellie_dakota]

Wow, Mandy, you've been busy! Thanks for all the info.

[Brenda Corinthos]

I would love to see Matthew in another project and think he and Lauren should work opposite each other more.

[tidbit2008]

Works for me

[ellie_dakota]

Me too.

[KervyQT16]

He and Lauren were cute on the show.

And yes, I was busy. Thank you IMDB for actor love.


Mandy

[tidbit2008]

Our buzy bee

[ellie_dakota]

That was funny, especially after he screwed up the name of the show.

[tidbit2008]
