Pilot Preview: CBS’ ‘Project Gary’ Gives Jay Mohr a Job
Courtesy of CBS
This week, Vulture's taking a look at the best and worst of the new season's picked-up TV shows. Which are good? Can anything replace Cavemen? And, most important, what's worth a DVR season pass?
Title: Project Gary
Stars: Jay Mohr, Paula Marshall, Larry Miller, Jaime King
Network: CBS, Wednesdays at 8:30 p.m.
The pitch: Jay Mohr stars as Gary Barnes, a recently divorced father of two who must learn to balance his new single life with his neurotic ex-wife. High jinks ensue.
Pilot report: Three months after getting divorced from his wife of fifteen years, Gary, a painting contractor, hooks up with Vanessa (King), a woman whose condo he's painting. After a hot first night, things are looking promising — that is, until Gary's ex-wife Allison (Marshall) shows up in the morning to drop off their two preteen kids. It turns out Gary forgot to mention he was carrying some extra baggage, which sends Vanessa angrily out the back door. In order to get a second shot, Gary must prove to Vanessa that he can have an honest relationship with her by being open about things with his anal-retentive ex. When Gary begins to confess to Allison that he's ready to move forward with his life, she trumps him by revealing that she's engaged — to their former marriage counselor (Miller). Awkward. Luckily, Vanessa takes Gary back, but not without revealing that she's got some baggage of her own: She's a single mom. Guess everyone’s even now! And so this crazy multi-cam family happily ends their day eating pizza together.
Representative dialogue:
Gary: Allison, what are you doing here? It's not my weekend.Allison: All you have in your refrigerator is two beers and a bottle of ranch dressing.Gary: Yeah, I know, I'm running low on beer.
Breakout star: With turns in Nip/Tuck, Veronica Mars, and Out of Practice, Paula Marshall isn't exactly new to prime time — but thanks to her solid deadpan delivery, she makes her character enjoyable beyond the limits of the shrill ex-wife stereotype.
Worth a season pass? Even if the crop of fall offerings is famine-thin, we're afraid not. The kids are props, Jaime King is just another hot chick, and we could barely identify Christopher Guest company favorite Larry Miller in the wreckage. And Jay Mohr? Old dog, old tricks. —Jessica Coen

Justin Timberlake - Timberlake To Pen Perform Ellens Wedding Song
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE has offered to pen and perform a one-off song for ELLEN DEGENERES and PORTIA DE ROSSI's wedding ceremony.
The comedienne-turned-chat show host went public with plans to wed her longtime partner during a taping of her daily show, which aired on Friday (16May08).
The big announcement came a day after California's same-sex marriage ban was overturned by Supreme Court judges, who declared the original ruling was unconstitutional.
And Timberlake was among the first to congratulate the couple when he appeared on the show minutes later.
Laughing off the suggestion that he should marry his girlfriend, Jessica Biel - and make the event a double wedding, the SexyBack singer offered, "No... but I'll sing at your wedding."
He insisted he was deadly serious and said he'd put words De Rossi and DeGeneres wrote to music for the special ceremony, which thrilled the host and her girlfriend, who was sitting in the audience.
He said, "You should have an original wedding song; I think it's only fitting.
"(Write down) everything you want to say to Portia and everything you wanna say to Ellen... and I'll put it to music and it'll be amazing."
