Exclusive: Corbin Bernsen (Clipped) has wrapped production on Woodstockers, an indie TV pilot for which he wrote the original draft, in which he stars opposite Stephen Tobolowsky (Nobody Wants This).
The original logline for the dark generational comedy teased the story of “two guys who went to Woodstock in ’69 and never left,” with Bernsen and Tobolowsky respectively playing friends Lenny Baker and Cal Reddick. But per Bernsen, who relocated to the Hudson Vally six years ago, “Early on I had the good fortune to connect with Michael Lang, one of the original organizers of Woodstock, and quickly discovered a deeper story about the 60’s and a generation who espoused ‘Love and Peace,’ but failed in their early attempts to ‘change the world.’ At the same time, I witnessed a new generation dusting off the “hippie” mantra and giving it their own spin.”

For TV shows like Breaking Bad and The Sopranos, it can be tough for viewers to find an episode considered "terrible" because that's how fantastic those series are. However, there are a plethora of other popular and acclaimed shows with one bad seed within a library of many great episodes. It proves that not every show, no matter how beloved it can be, is completely perfect.
These particular episodes have become infamous for being a far cry from the brilliant storytelling the rest of the series had. These episodes can feel like unnecessary filler, unhumorous adventures, or creations whose sole purpose is to rile up the fanbase. Some episodes are even series finales, which can leave a noticeable stain on the show's legacy. From the Game of Thrones ending to Stranger Things' backdoor pilot for a spin-off, viewers have nothing but bad things to say about these episodes of otherwise incredible shows.

In the earliest episodes of Rick and Morty, nearly all of the action was focused on the two titular leads, but as the seasons have rolled by, Morty’s teenage sister Summer has become a considerable presence on the show in her own right. She’s worked for the devil, become the queen to a bunch of aliens, had an incest baby with her brother and single-handedly killed a group of bad guys trying to “do a Die Hard.”
Spencer Grammer is the woman who has given the teen her voice — as well as helped further hone that voice after all these years. I recently spoke to Grammer about Summer’s most badass moments, how she’s found herself becoming as vulgar as Summer and the lines she knows every Rick and Morty fan wants to hear (they’re also very vulgar).
What drew you to voice acting?
It’s sort of a sad story.

When Adult Swim aired the 22-minute pilot of Rick and Morty on December 2, 2013, the first episode from the series adaptation of some unnamed asshole’s crass, chaotic Back to the Future parody came with a promise – “A hundred years Rick and Morty!” At the time, the star power of Community creator and Rick and Morty co-head Dan Harmon was hardly enough to ensure a century’s worth of episodes from a series that had just premiered on a random Monday night at the beginning of winter, but, within the first few seasons of Rick and Morty’s evolution into Adult Swim’s flagship series and the internet’s most talked-about sci-fi comedy phenomenon, Adult Swim made the wise decision to book Harmon and his forgettable partner through a full ten seasons and 100 episodes.

Spencer Grammer, Harland Williams, Will Friedle, Harry Lennix, Juliana Harkavy and John Dimaggio are among the performers comprising the ensemble voice cast of the animated sci-fi comedy movie Isla Monstro.
Hailing from multimedia company Abyssmal Entertainment, the feature has completed production and launches promotion at San Diego Comic-Con with a booth and a panel taking place Saturday. The project is directed and animated by Steven Shea (Surviving Supercon), who co-wrote the script with James Schrader, and it is currently seeking distribution.
Isla Monstro centers on ne’er-do-well Duke (voiced by Schrader), who falls off a cruise ship and awakens on an abandoned, top secret government island that is rampant with mutants and monsters left over from a failed “super soldier” mission from the 1980s. Duke concocts a scheme to convert the island into a high-class resort getaway with the creatures serving as staff, which does not please the U.S. government.

Harmon commented on moving on without Roiland in a new interview with Variety. He addressed the challenges that Rick and Morty was facing with Season 7 because of the behind-the-scenes issues and the show's main characters getting recast.

When we first reconnect with Frasier Crane in the “Frasier” revival, the character is thriving. Since his departure from Seattle at the end of the original “Frasier” series in 2004, he has become a household name, having hosted a popular TV talk show for years in Chicago. And although he remains unlucky in love, Frasier exudes more confidence than ever before when we see him in the Boston-set update.
“He’s certainly refined and more comfortable in his own skin,” Grammer says of his on-screen alter ego, first seen on “Cheers” in 1984. “He’s a fuller man than he used to be. He knows more. He’s wiser.”
The same might be said for Grammer. Of course, he isn’t really Frasier, but having played the character for four decades, their paths are inextricably linked. Ask Grammer about how he personally has evolved over that same time frame, and it’s...

While, Hulu is not as flashy as some of the other streaming services like Netflix, Max, and Disney+, it has a solid library of shows that are both originals and licensed through various studios. Regarding sci-fi shows, Hulu doesn’t have any big names like 3 Body Problem or Westworld, but it makes up for that by carrying some great new and old shows like Devs and The X-Files, which were loved by millions of people. So, we thought of making a list of the best sci-fi TV shows you can find on Hulu right now.

Copying the plot, themes, and style of Back to the Future too closely can detract from the viewer's immersion in the story. Rick and Morty, Doctor Who, and Avengers: Endgame all draw inspiration from Back to the Future in different ways, exploring the consequences of time travel. While many films and TV shows pay homage to Back to the Future, they also strive to create their own unique story and develop their own characters.
Back To The Future has inspired many films and television shows that came after it, and due to the iconic nature of the film, it's easy to spot when a piece of media is doing more than just referencing the work. Paying homage to a beloved film is a time-honored tradition, and there's nothing wrong with intertextual references in film, it's what creates the vocabulary of cinema.

Season 7 of Rick and Morty adapted several opening title gags into episodes, but there are still untold gags that the cast would like to see adapted in the future. Some of the untold gags mentioned by the cast include Sensei Jerry and Butter Morty, which they find intriguing and want to see explored in future episodes. The closing gag in the credits featuring Rick, Morty, and Summer being chased by a Cthulhu-like creature has sparked theories, but it has already been adapted into a comic, making it unlikely to be explored in the show.

Holiday sitcom episodes bring warmth and a sense of community, allowing characters to grow closer within their little world. Unconventional holiday episodes, like Rick and Morty's "Ricktional Mortpoon's Rickmas Mortcation," can be hilarious and fit seamlessly into a sitcom. Sitcoms like The Office and Friends use holiday episodes to explore different cultural perspectives, creating laughs and finding common ground among friends.
While numerous hit TV sitcoms have included multiple holiday outings across their seasons, some shows' Christmas episodes stand out tall among the rest. Over several decades, countless sitcoms have included holiday specials during their runs, with some episodes focusing on the holidays themselves or the build-up to the festive days. With the themes of the holiday, their annual rewatchability, and typical focus on exciting ensembles, it's unsurprising that some holiday episodes rank among the best of certain popular sitcoms.

Through its first six seasons, identifying who voiced one of the many aliens, critters, or goobers on Rick and Morty was a pretty easy thing to do. That’s because, in addition to performing as the titular lead characters, co-creator Justin Roiland also embodied most of the show’s strange background players.
Following season 6, however, Roiland was fired from the series due to receiving domestic battery charges (later dropped) and multiple allegations of sexual assault. With Roiland gone, multiple actors have stepped in to fill the roles of Rick, Morty, and the whole other host of characters from the Adult Swim hit’s increasingly large constellation of galaxies, timelines, and multiverses. Even without the personnel change midway through, Rick and Morty‘s cast of voice actors was already pretty confusing beast to make sense of. So let’s try to do exactly that.

Rick and Morty creator Dan Harmon has an idea about what could potentially trigger the ending of the popular adult-animated sitcom.
After nearly a decade since Rick and Morty made its series debut in Dec. 2013, the Adult Swim series still shows no signs of slowing down any time soon, as it prepares to enter its seventh installment this October. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Harmon revealed that if it’s only up to him, he would like Rick and Morty to run for 100 seasons because "it’s designed to." When asked about his thoughts on how the show would wrap up the titular duo’s storyline, Harmon revealed that Rick and Morty’s adventures could possibly end once Morty becomes an official teenager.

Dan Harmon’s hit adult-animated series Rick and Morty may potentially make its way to the big screen in the near future.
Since debuting in 2013, Rick and Morty has continued to be one of Adult Swim’s most popular and acclaimed animated shows to date, amassing multiple awards including two Emmys for Outstanding Animated Program. That’s why, it would certainly not be a surprise if the titular fan-favorite duo would follow in the footsteps of The Simpsons and South Park, and star in their own movie someday. In a previous interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Harmon confirmed that prior to the WGA strike, he had a “serious conversation” with Warner Bros. to discuss the possibility of developing a Rick and Morty movie.

Rick and Morty is back with more of the same deranged interdimensional adventures but some notably different voices in the new trailer for Season Seven.
The clip offers the first glimpse at Rick and Morty following the ouster of creator/lead performer Justin Roiland, who was fired in January after it was revealed that he’d been charged with domestic violence (those charges were ultimately dismissed). At the time of Roiland’s firing, Rick and Morty’s network, Adult Swim, announced the show would continue without him, even though he...

“Rick and Morty” has dropped a Season 7 trailer that features the new voices for the duo originated by creator Justin Roiland.
“Rick and Morty are back and sounding more like themselves than ever! It’s Season 7, and the possibilities are endless: what’s up with Jerry? Evil Summer?! And will they ever go back to the high school?! Maybe not! But let’s find out! There’s probably less piss than last season. ‘Rick and Morty,’ 100 years! Or at least until season 10!” the official season description states.
Roiland, who has voiced both titular characters since the long-running animated series premiered back in 2013, was charged with felony domestic violence related to an incident that first surfaced in a January 2020 criminal complaint.
Following the news, Adult Swim cut ties with Roiland but noted that the show would continue without his involvement. In February, an individual with knowledge of the matter told TheWrap...

Rick and Morty is returning for its seventh season on Adult Swim this fall. The cable channel has announced a premiere date for the episodes, the first not to feature the voice of series co-creator Justin Roiland.
In August 2020, Roiland was arrested and charged with felony domestic battery and false imprisonment. NBC News reported the charges early this year, before the pre-trial hearing. Multiple people came forward with their own allegations of abuse, including a female writer on the show's staff who claimed sexual harassment. Adult Swim severed ties with Roiland. The felony charges were dropped due to insufficient evidence, but the cable channel has not brought Roiland back. His characters have been recast with unknown soundalike actors.

It's been a while since season 6 of "Rick and Morty" concluded, and a lot has happened in the meantime. Most notably, news came out that the show's co-creator and most prominent voice actor, Justin Roiland, had been charged with domestic battery and false imprisonment in May 2020. Since then, there have been a number of other sexual assault allegations made against Roiland, as well as news that he was involved in a settled sexual harassment lawsuit back in 2019. In the end, Roiland was removed from both the cast and creative team, with Adult Swim announcing that his characters would be replaced with soundalike voice actors.
Outside of Roiland's absence, there are plenty of other concerns and questions "Rick and Morty" fans have had over the past year. How will the show deal with this new evil Rick? Is the show really going to embrace a serialized structure, as Rick's final monologue implied?...
