Today's Blind Items

What B- list movie and television comedy actor is currently having to reshoot many scenes from a recent movie. He has been doing so many drugs on his film that he has wildly different looks from one scene to the next depending on when it was shot. It has become so bad that more scenes are being written into the movie for other actors in an attempt to create a story without using many of our comic actor's scenes and story line.

  1. I don't think that he would qualify as B-.

  2. Why not?
    He is in a franchise, Get Smart and he is on an Emmy award winning TV show as an actor and producer.

    Anywayz it's just a guess.

  3. Jack Black?

    i'm taking the "wildly" reference as some sort of clue but i have a tendancy to read too much into things ;)

    ReplyDelete
  4. Yeah - I think Seth is a great guess. I also still think he was the answer to that blind about the guy who lost a lot of weight doing too much coke... :) That one never got revealed, right?

    ReplyDelete
  5. Great guesses on Jack and Seth but have they done anything on TV?

  6. my first guess was steve carrell, too and i have no idea why. it would make me sad if true!

    Oops - Rogen.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I like the Seth Rogan guess, too. He has lost a lot of weight and I could see that leading to a continuity problem in a movie.

    ReplyDelete
  11. My first guess was a Seth, but Seth Green. The blue mohawk look always made me wonder if he was getting a little goofy.

    Steve Carrell is way higher than B-.

  12. i'm jumpin on the seth train. (for tv, he was on 'freaks and geeks').

    According to IMDB Rogen is currently filming (Green is too but a tv show). I'm on the Rogen bandwagon too. I also think Carrell is too big of a name for B-.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Rogen got his start on TV but is famous because of his movies. And he can definitely open a movie on his own name, which would make him a B or B+.

    David Spade is currently shooting an Adam Sandler vehicle.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Black's done a bunch of tv over the years but i guess he's not known for both really

    Rogen's probably the liklier culprit

    ReplyDelete
  16. the guy who was in that aptow movie with the voice of the gossip girl and dating dax (he goes to hawaii to get away from the break-up,and see's her there. anyone?!). both names slip but he's on a tv show and does movies.

    ReplyDelete
  17. can't be steve carrell. he isn't B-.
    i hate seth rogen but i'm not even sure HE'S B-.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Oh I had no clue Seth Rogen was on TV. Thanks, okay then I will change my answer to him then and also because as mentioned earlier he was the guess of the BI in which the actor was doing coke in order to loose weight and make him a box office leading man

    ReplyDelete
  19. email- Jason Segal who is currently filming 2 movies.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Jason Segel! I think that's a good guess.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I agree with the Segel guesses. He's looked like quite a mess in most of the pics I've seen of him.

    ReplyDelete
  22. nooo.... :( something about him just... i think he is quite attractive. And I am not too proud of it.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Rogen or Segel seem like the best guesses. More Rogen than Segel, since he's been in more hit movies and I do feel he was the answer to the blind about the actor taking coke to lose weight. fyi-BOTH Rogen and Segel were on Freaks and Geeks, but Segel has more TV presence with HIMYM

    ReplyDelete
  24. Segel for the win.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Bothe Segel and Rogen were on Freaks and Geeks and Undeclared. Though, I can't see either of them being B-. Butm I can see both of them doing drugs. I just didn't think either of them were stupid enough to let drugs interfere with their careers. I truly think we haven't got this one yet.

    ReplyDelete
  26. When does Enty start revealing blinds? :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. Doubt it's Rogen. One movie's in pre-production, and the one that's filming is a voice over.

    If I had to choose between the two, I'd go with Segel.

    ReplyDelete
  28. @ SG - July 4th. Just 3 more days!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Uh oh. Segel doesn't look good here. http://www.aceshowbiz.com/images/events/ALO-010251.jpg

    I really like him, too.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I say David Spade or Jason Segel.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I sure hope it's not Jason Segel. I'm with you, linnea.

    Besides, would Enty write a bad blind on someone who does full frontal male nudity?!?!?!?!?! Say it ain't so, Enty!!!!! (on Saturday!)

    ReplyDelete
  32. Lizzy - that picture was taken on 2/22/08. This BI says currently.

    ReplyDelete
  33. My guess is Segel too. If true, it's a shame because I like him too!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I hope it is not Jason Segal, but since he is currently in both movies & How I Met Your Mother, he fits.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm going to guess Tracy Morgan. He's in NYC filming with Sean William Scott and Bruce Willis and he has a pretty extensive history with substances. Just a thought! :)

    ReplyDelete
  36. Steve Carrel is way too stable to do drugs. And higher than B- too.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Just a quick add-on...movie is called A Couple of Dicks...picture of Michelle Tractenberg in the random photos below

    ReplyDelete
  38. Tracy Morgan makes sense, but he isn't a B- list movie actor, IMO.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Rogen is at least a B+ as he's opened multiple movies now. And honestly, I'd put Segel at a B at least. Maybe it's because I just really don't want it to be either of them, but I just don't think it's one of them. I mean, Segel always looks like a mess. That's just kind of his charm. I like the Spade guess.

    ReplyDelete
  40. what about Ryan Reynolds? He isn't A list yet, and did that 2 Guys, A Girl and a Pizza Place show in the 90s

    ReplyDelete
  41. What about Adam Brody? He's filming with Bruce Willis in NYC

    ReplyDelete

    I don't think it's Segel. There have been a number of photos released from the set of "Gulliver's Travels" (the film that he's currently working on) and he looks the same as he always does.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I hope it's not Jason Segel, I love him, and I think Enty really likes him as well. I'd consider him to be more B than B-, but who knows.

    What about Jeremy Piven? I wish we had a network vs. cable clue.

    ReplyDelete
  44. How about John Krasinski? He's in NY shooting a movie with Meryl Streep & he looks like he's lost a lot of weight recently.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Throwing Bradley Cooper out here, who did that one sitcom Kitchen Confidential a few years back. He's looked a little rough lately (but certainly not unhealthy).

    ReplyDelete
  46. Kitchen Confidential didn't last that long. I wouldn't say that's B- list TV. He's also not in any projects that are filming right now, per IMDb.

    I used to think Bradley Cooper was so hot, but he's been looking kinda gross lately.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Segel is way more likely than Rogen. Seth Rogen is higher than B- at this point.

    I hope it's neither tho =[

    I love them both

    ReplyDelete
  48. I can't wait! Thanks Karmen!

    I'm jumping on the Seth train. He says he doesn't like working out and all of that but somehow he lost an incredible amount of weight in a short period. I don't think he would be dedicated enough to actually work out and lose it.

    ReplyDelete
  49. What about Jason Lee? He's filming "A Couple of Dicks" right now.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Anonymous5:31 PM

    I am on the segal bandwagon. He looks have been really erratic on hymim this season. Rogen can open movies on his own meaning b+ at least.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Jim Carrey is a junkie

    ReplyDelete
  52. The Pivert doesn't have project that's in filming right now.

    Hope it's not John Krasinski.

    ReplyDelete
  53. My 1st thought was Segel but I really don't want it to be him. I don't think he's dumb enough to waste his career on drugs...the guy's on the line of A list if you look at his acting & writing.

    So I'm going with Tracey Morgan. I also really like him but not as much as Jason!

    ReplyDelete
  54. The first thought was Tracy, but I think he is more B list thing anything. Refuse to believe it's him or Jason Segel.

    I like the Adam Brody guess a lot.

    ReplyDelete
  55. whiteloreleisaid...My first guess was a Seth, but Seth Green. The blue mohawk look always made me wonder if he was getting a little goofy.

    "Getting"? Seth has always been a "little goofy". Which is why I love him soooooo much!

    I don't think it's him, howevs.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Of all the guesses thusfar, only David Spade would qualify as a B-. Everyone else is much higher.
    Seth Rogan lost weight the wrong way, I agree, but this a different druggie.

    ReplyDelete
  57. David Spade always looks the same though, and he has for years.

  59. Amymarie, it's just our resident troll. He just came out of hibernation, so he's particularly hungry for attention. :)

    .S. Plus, don't you think Seth G. is just a MAJOR pothead? LOL! After all, he's bffs with Mila Kunis and Macaulay Culkin, and we know they walk around in a haze of smoke.

    Ladies (and probably a few gents), it's clear that the only course of action is to kidnap Jason Segel and lock him away in an isolated cabin in the woods so he can detox. Do I have any volunteers to help me give him some tender loving care while he's recovering?

    ReplyDelete
  60. mooshki, if you ABSOLUTELY need someone to help you out I guess I could take the night shift.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I'll sign you up, Linnea. :)

    ReplyDelete
  62. TheAM - Ryan Rynolds was going to be my guess, too, especially with the "wildly" (Van Wilder) reference. However, I now like Segal better for this, there was a blind a while back about him doing blow on the street outside a restaurant while waiting for his car to be pulled around by a valet. (at least it was thought to be him)

    ReplyDelete
  63. i noticed that jason segal seemed to have gained some weight over the past couple of years. i like him, but he has looked a bit puffy this past season.
    spade always looks the same, as does green and reynolds.
    seth rogen did have that huge weight loss and was looking pretty hot, but i don't know what he looks like now.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Seth Rogan could have the body of a greek god, and I still wouldn't like him.

    ReplyDelete
  65. what about michael cera for this one? he's done tv (arrested development) and has had b list success with superbad and nick and norah. he was in year 1 with jack black and he's been looking really strange lately. almost sickly...

    ReplyDelete
  66. stiffkittens - thanks for the detective work!

    ReplyDelete
  67. i agree with DNfromMN.

    In the newest season of How I Met Your Mother his looks change on every single episode. There's no continuity at all.
