day 2.283

even more new tv!
well, at least in theory. hbo has ordered a pilot for tilda, a new half-hour comedy about a much-feared hollywood blogger. and, no, it's not based on perez hilton. it's reportedly based on nikki finke, who founded and runs deadline hollywood. the show will star diane keaton in her first regular tv role. about time. if there's anywhere to transition from movie star to tv star, it's hbo. i think the "box office" part of "home box office" is the stars' way of justifying the change. keaton will be joined by another movie star, juno's ellen page. page will play a young assistant at a hollywood studio. page's character will have to decide whether she wants to continue on the corporate track or follow keaton's tilda, who has taken a liking to her. sounds good, but it will be interesting to see how this idea transitions into a series. but, that's getting ahead of myself. first we have to see if the show even makes it to series (though that's more of a likely than a long shot with keaton attached). just another show i'm looking forward to this fall. where will i find the time?
