I'd like to draw your attention to a very funny new potential series premiering on the web. Kevin O'Rourke, who was the delightfully devious Scott Sherwood on Remember WENN and Mark Blum have founded www.testtube.tv, which plans to present series concepts in an internet form of five minute increments. The first series, Art in Heaven, began last night. Art was created and written by Rupert Holmes (who also created WENN) and stars O'Rourke, with his associate portrayed by WENN alumnus Christopher Murney and also starring Maddie Corwin and Matthew Arkin. "Art" is a low-level deity assigned to help with the overflow from "up there" and Corwin is his client. The first episode is basically a teaser for what's to come and has some smart and funny lines (Murney gets the best one).

The next episode is scheduled for next week.

This is a shoestring venture for O'Rourke and Blum, so if you enjoy the series, please leave feedback and show there's interest in more episodes.

(The shows are in QuickTime format. They're working to get an alternative form for people who may have trouble with QT, but, again, there are budgetary constraints.)

Actually, yes, I was introduced to him on the set of REMEMBER WENN back in 1998.

That reminds me - have you seen The Aviator? I darn near did a double take in the scene where Katherine Hepburn meets Spencer Tracey - Spence is played by none other than our own Mr. O'Rourke!

I haven't seen The Aviator but have heard about the cameo. Since James loves aviation pics, I'm sure we'll see it someday.
