Quincy Jones: TV Guide News

  • Rashida Jones, The Office: Is Karen Fated to Lose Jim? | Today's News: Our Take | 4/5/2007
    When last we tuned in to NBC's The Office — which airs at a special time tonight, at 8 pm/ET — Jim seemed to be in harm's way, as Roy, finally clued into fiancée Pam's longings, declared Halpert "a dead man." Subsequent promos have suggested a follow-up more akin to a Law & Order squad-room brawl than our usual fun-loving Dunder-Mifflin gang. Just before TV Guide's Sexy Stars issue hit newsstands, we invited Rashida Jones (aka pages 52-53) to share a sneak peek. Plus, her take on SNL's Office spoof, and the NBC hitcom's parade of big-name directors. TVGuide.com: Tell me about the photo shoot you did for TV Guide's "Sexy" issue....Ras read more
  • In Praise of the SNL Parody | Celebrity Blogs | 2/28/2007
    Hello, all. It's been another great week for The Office and the Office drunk. I'm the redhead at the corner desk. Wild week. Not the typical Meredith-takes-her-top-off wild. Just interesting-and-jam-packed wild. The Office has now crossed a new threshold: An SNL parody! That is a milestone. Rainn Wilson hosted this past week and kicked some major ass. He is one of the most talented actors who I will ever work with. The Office sketch in the opening was pretty cool. Lorne Michaels was more like "Lorne Michaels Scott." No Meredith, but that's OK. (It could have been a guy in drag. I love drag, but I am sure it would have been subpar drag.) Anyway, as a comic actress who has had my own SNL "almost" story, I was really happy to see the Office opening. When I was in Chicago in 1991, I was touring with Second City and I did a show called The Miss Vagina Pageant (directed by Jill Soloway, a writer-producer from Six Feet Under) at the Annoyance Theater, and Lorne Michaels came to see it and ... read more
  • Apprentice's Sean Gets Job and Girl! | Today's News: Our Take | 6/7/2006
    Did anyone warn the candidates on this season's The Apprentice that the British were coming? Because at the end of the day — meaning the 15-week job interview — 33-year-old London transplant Sean Yazbeck was the one hired, presumably by a large margin over runner-up Lee Bienstock. The morning after his crowning, Sean gave TVGuide.com a ring to rehash his winning run as well as answer some burning questions about the show's rather slapdash live finale. TVGuide.com: Congratulations on your hiring!Sean Yazbeck: Thank you very much! TVGuide.com: You did an excellent job of putting together your final-task team, which we all saw was very important. I mean, what the hell was Lee thinking?Sean: read more
  • Elliott Defends Idol Swan-Song Pick | Today's News: Our Take | 5/23/2006
    In the end, for American Idol wannabe Elliott Yamin, it came down to a trio of giant, video-projected percentages: 33.68, 33.26 and 33.06 — the last of which, separated from second place by just 10,000 votes, belonged to him. "I just knew.... I had that intuition that my name was going to be attached to the bottom number," he told TVGuide.com the morning after being sent packing. "And I was prepared for it, so it was easy to take and grasp." As for the oh-so-slim margin of loss to finalists Taylor Hicks and Katharine McPhee, he says, "It was really flattering to have been involved in such a close, tight-knit race."

    Early on in the competition, the 27-year-old Virginian was handed some of the highest praise one could ever expect to hear from read more

  • One-on-One with Love Monkey's Shooter | Today's News: Our Take | 1/24/2006
    In CBS' recently premiered Love Monkey (Tuesdays at 10 pm/ET), Ed alum Tom Cavanagh is flanked by a trio of buds, including Jason Priestley's dad-to-be, Mike, and Christopher Wiehl's onetime baseball stud, Jake. Rounding out the close-knit quartet is Shooter, played by Larenz Tate, with whom TVGuide.com went one-on-one in this Q&A.  TVGuide.com: Some have likened Love Monkey to Sex and the City, but with guys and music. In that scheme of things, who is Shooter — Samantha?Larenz Tate: Yeah, that's what everyone is saying. Our show clearly stands on its own, but if I had to compare, he'd be the read more
