Dan Bucatinsky on if ‘The Comeback' Season 3 could happen
We cherish this idea. Twenty years after HBO gave viewers the beloved sitcom 'The Comeback,' starring Lisa Kudrow, fans may be in store for a Season 3. Kudrow, 61, played sitcom vet Valerie Cherish — a woman desperate to revive her career. The original show aired in 2005 before returning for Season 2 in 2014. Now, Dan Bucatinsky, who played Billy Stanton, Valerie's publicist who couldn't control his anger, is getting candid on the possibility. Advertisement 8 Lisa Kudrow on 'The Comeback.' 'I would love it,' the actor, 59, exclusively told The Post at the 2025 Astra Awards. 'I would love it. It gets talked about all the time. So just know — I hope so.' Although there has been no official word from the network if a reboot is in the cards, Bucatinsky, Kudrow and the rest of the cast would be game.

'If there are talks happening, I can't answer, but we talk about it all the time and we all would love it.' The sitcom also featured Damian Young, Lance Barber, and Robert Bagnell. Robert Michael Morris, who played Kudrow's hairdresser Mickey Deane, passed away in 2017 at age 77. Advertisement 'We worked together a lot over the years,' Bucatinsky reflected. 'But certainly shooting 'The Comeback' was one of them. I think one of the scenes I loved the most with her, was going into her trailer in Season 2 when Billy has just had it and is quitting and throws his phone across the room.' 8 Dan Bucatinsky and Lisa Kudrow attend the premiere of HBO's series 'The Comeback.' Getty Images 'That was a really iconic moment for a publicist who could never really keep his rage to himself,' he went on. 'We had a really good time doing that.' Kudrow was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series in 2006 for Season 1, and again in 2015 for Season 2.

Penske Media via Getty Images 'There's always a meeting, every now and then, where we put ideas on the table,' the director, 70, told Variety in honor of the 20th anniversary of the program earlier this month. 'It has to be a really intricate combination of things to get us both to the place where we think, 'Oh, God.' We laugh at anything; Valerie could be funny anywhere. But the thing we're always looking for is, what would make an event worthy of Valerie coming back? So we're constantly meeting — 'Hey, what about this?'' In 2025, Kudrow feels the show would resonate even stronger with those trying to make it on reality television. 'It's much more identifiable,' the 'Friends' star admitted. 'I've seen 'Housewives.' We have another point of reference for a woman and what she's willing to do. Every one of those Housewives, they know what they're doing; they're playing a role in order to get their brand out there, and it's a means to an end.' 8 Dan Bucatinsky in 'Hacks.'

Max 'I loved working with Corey Hawkins on '24:Legacy,'' he shared. 'I'd love to work with him again. But Lisa Kudrow has been a friend and partner of mine for 20 years. So, I always love working with her again. I've really been lucky to work with a lot of great, strong women and I hope that continues because I'm a fan of so many. Kristen Bell. I would love to work with Kristen.' Bucatinsky recently worked on Season 4 of the hit HBO series 'Hacks.' The show stars Jean Smart as stand up legend Deborah Vance and Hannah Einbinder, a comedy writer. Advertisement 'It was the relationship that I was able to form with Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder,' the producer gushed about his favorite part of joining the cast. 'That friendship is one that I will cherish. Getting to know them off camera, then getting to play with them on camera is a dream. So much of my job on that show was playing the guy whose job it was to wrangle these two forces. I am a father of two, so I was playing dad a little bit on the show as well. But the gift really was being part of that community that felt really strong both behind the scenes and in front of the camera.' 8 Miranda Otto, Dan Bucatinsky in '24: Legacy.' ©20thCentFox/Courtesy Everett Collection The trio's time on set included many chats in the greenroom. 'We would hang out in this little greenroom area at our chairs,' Bucatinsky reminisced. 'We would talk. We would keep each other warm. We would go get tea. We would go get snacks. We would ask each other for advice about everything. Recommendations of movies and documentaries and doctors. And talk about our kids and our pets. And it was really an opportunity in between scenes to really get to know one another.'

JFK Jr.'s nephew Jack Schlossberg slams Ryan Murphy's 'American Love Story', says family wasn't consulted
John F. Kennedy Jr.'s nephew Jack Schlossberg isn't feeling the love for Ryan Murphy's upcoming series American Love Story, which will dramatize the high-profile marriage and untimely deaths of JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. On Thursday, Schlossberg spoke out against the FX limited series in a video posted to his Instagram Stories as he drove on the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway, saying that his family was never consulted about the project. "Lately, my news feed has been filled with pictures of my uncle, John F. Kennedy Jr., a great man," Schlossberg said in the video. "For those wondering whether his family was ever consulted, or has anything to do with the new show being made about him, the answer is no, and there's really not much we can do." Schlossberg went on to explain that "the right to privacy, which includes the ability to control your own name, image, and likeness, doesn't survive death in the state of New York. And for that matter, he's considered a public figure, so there's not much we can do." But, he said, "I hope those making this show about him take seriously what he stood for in his life, all that he achieved in it, and that they donate some of the profits [from] what they're making to the John F. Kennedy Library." Schlossberg went on to note that he's not against a project that celebrates JFK Jr., as long as it's done with the right intentions. "For the record, I think admiration for my uncle John is great," he said. "What I don't think is great is profiting off of it in a grotesque way." Representatives for Murphy and FX didn't immediately respond to Entertainment Weekly's requests for comment. First announced in 2021, American Love Story will follow the courtship and marriage of JFK Jr. and Besette. According to an official description for the series, "What started out as a beautiful union for the young couple, widely regarded as American royalty, began to fray under the stress of the relentless microscope and navel gaze of tabloid media. The pressures of their careers and rumored family discord ended with their tragic deaths when his private plane crashed into the ocean on a hazy summer night off the coast of Massachusetts." Last week, Murphy shared a first look at the series and revealed the cast: Paul Kelly will play JFK Jr. and Sarah Pidgeon will play Besette. Other stars include Naomi Watts as JFK Jr.'s mother, Jackie Onassis, and Grace Gummer as his older sister Caroline Kennedy. "We started shooting this week in New York City and can't wait until you see the romantic and tragic love story between America's prince, JFK Jr., and fashion icon Carolyn Bessette — out Valentine's Day week of 2026," Murphy wrote in an Instagram post. "I am thrilled to introduce you to Sarah Pidgeon as Carolyn and Paul Kelly as John F. Kennedy Jr. Over a thousand actors auditioned for each of these roles, and we absolutely found the perfect choices." Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

Russell Fenton @EmmyTheLab/YouTube This week's Pet of the Week winner is Emmy, a Labrador retriever who has a heartwarming relationship with an unexpected person—the mail lady. While many dogs are famously cautious of the moment mail is delivered, Emmy is delighted. "Every day, Emmy patiently waits on the front lawn for her favorite visitor: Kristy the mail lady," owner Russell Fenton told Newsweek. With gentle enthusiasm, Emmy climbs into the vehicle to receive her daily treat from Kirsty. "It's a sweet and calm routine that's become a beloved part of the neighborhood," Fenton said. A heartwarming video captured the special moment, shared on Emmy's very own YouTube channel that already has over 155,000 subscribers—proving just how much her heartwarming routine resonates with pet lovers. Finalists Pictures of Jazz the dog living her best life. Pictures of Jazz the dog living her best life. Manuela Friedman Our first finalist this week is Jazz. Almost one year old, she was rescued by her owner at just 10 weeks after being discovered on the side of the streets in Torrington, Connecticut. "When I saw her scruffy face, the feathery ears, and her blue and brown eye, I just melted and applied immediately, a day later she was mine," owner Manuela Friedman told Newsweek. Since then, Jazz has filled the family with joy. "She is such a spirited and smart dog, friendly to everyone she meets," Friedman said. Her favorite things to do include chasing squirrels, chipmunks and going to visit the neighbors who are all enamored with her. "It is amazing, but somehow people are really drawn to her, strangers stop and want to touch her, give her compliments, and feel happier after getting a little puppy love from her," the owner said.

David Markley Next up this week is Baxter who was found abandoned at a local Walmart when David Markley's sister picked him up. "He was about 7 weeks old and he was very hungry she fed him but could not keep him because she lived in an apartment and already had a dog," Markley told Newsweek. He had recently lost his beloved dog of 15 years, Yogi, but when his sister called and asked for help with Baxter, he couldn't refuse. "She brought him to the house and of course my wife and I fell in love with him and he has been with us for almost two years now," Markley said. "Baxter loves to be loved and gives it right back tenfold." Pictures of Romeo the Goldendoodle. Pictures of Romeo the Goldendoodle. Tim Nicholls Last but not least this week is goldendoodle Romeo, also known as Romeo Lloyd Nicholls, RLN, Romes, Romey and Bunny. "We chose him—or he chose our son—from his siblings as he seemed the most lively yet laid back, curious and sweet," owner Tim Nicholls told Newsweek. Eight years later, Romeo is still as lively as he was as a puppy, and a much loved part of the family. "You know he loves you as he jumps up to hug you hello and he loves everyone," Nicholls said. Romeo also has a habit remarkably similar to that of Emmy—he loves to say hello to delivery drivers. "Romeo manages to jump in the back of the Amazon truck on most days and has a particular obsession with USPS vans. When one drives by, he simply stops and stares intently until the van has disappeared," Nicholls said.
