It’s being reported that Taylor Negron, an actor who consistently maintained a recognizable face in some of the biggest films and televisions in Hollywood history – including Friends, Seinfeld and the 1980s film Fast Times at Ridgemont High – has passed away at the age of 57. Negron died just yesterday (Saturday, Jan. 10), and was found by his cousin, Chuck Negron. The actor was famed for playing Allesandro in the famed 90s series Friends, which starred Lisa Kudrow, who just finished up playing Valerie Cherish in HBO’s The Comeback. Read More »
Back in 2005, fans of Lisa Kudrow immediately found themselves thrilled at the fact that the former Friends star was returning to television as Valerie Cherish in HBO’s The Comeback. And while it only lasted one season, that didn’t stop fans from clamoring and yearning for more of the oh, so persistent actress. Well, nine years later, they finally got their wish when HBO decided to revisit the series for an eight-episode, second season which ended earlier tonight with Kudrow’s character winning herself an Emmy for her new show Seeing Red – created by her Season 1 “nemesis” Paulie G (played by actor Lance Barber). And while she’s not necessarily present to accept the award, it seems that when she episode ends she’s right where she wants to be. Lisa Kudrow recently spoke with MStars News about Season 2 of The Comeback, her role as Valerie Cherish and even her thoughts on whether or not she’d be into doing a Friends movie and reprise her role as Phoebe Buffay.

As The Comeback is now over halfway through Season 2, the Lisa Kudrow-led HBO series has finally shown just what Seeing Red has in store for Valerie Cherish.

At least, so says the New York Times reporter who was to document the production of Seeing Red this past Sunday’s episode, “Valerie Is Taken Seriously.” Read More »
Actor Damian Young finds himself in an interesting situation on HBO’s The Comeback. As we watch Lisa Kudrow’s Valerie Cherish continues to forge onward, hoping for the project of her dreams, she still has to head home at the end of the day and have a life outside of Hollywood – yes, there are such things. Which is where her husband Mark (played by Young) comes into play. Above all, even the craziness that comes from Cherish’s career and the ever-interrupting nature of Jane and her crew, it seems safe to say that Mark and Valerie have a rather rock solid marriage.

Season 2 of HBO's The Comeback returned to the network just last week (Sunday, Nov. 9). Earlier tonight, episode 2 aired and displayed the return of Jane! Played by actress Laura Silverman, Jane stood as the eyes and ears of The Comeback (in the show) throughout Season 1 - somewhat acting as the audience to a degree. During tonight's episode, we find her character rather reluctant to get back into the swing of things, mainly due to the harsh reality of Hollywood. Regardless, either with her immense charm or unbelievable persistence, Valerie manages to bring Jane back to the team to shoot some BTS (that's behind the scenes!) footage of her new series Seeing Red. Laura Silverman recently spoke with MStars News about the return of The Comeback, the genius behind Lisa Kudrow and Michael Patrick King's writing and her future own plans! Read More »
