Blind Items Revealed
October 8, 2013
This A- list mostly television actress who has been on my television every day in a new commercial was asked by a fellow actress on the same network for some help with her own show that has been struggling. Our A lister has of course she would be happy to help and then does absolutely nothing. The A lister knows the show is going down and doesn't want to be associated with it.
Zooey Deschanel/Mindy Kaling
What is she supposed to do? I don't get it.
ReplyDeleteSad. I really liked the Mindy Project.
ReplyDeleteWow. Enty doesn't like Zooey, does he?
ReplyDeleteShhh, @writergirl, that kind of talk gets your comments pulled!
DeleteLol @Seven! Still having issues?
DeleteGuest star on it maybe Sugar? Not much else she could do besides get some of her acting friends to guest also.
ReplyDeleteFrom Wiki:
ReplyDelete"On November 21, 2013, Fox announced that The Mindy Project would take a mid-season hiatus, before returning on April 1, 2014, with all new episodes.[4]"
@Sugar, I think it's a matter of saying she'll guest star to draw some publicity without any intention of following through.
ReplyDeleteIs the Mindy Project really going to get canceled? I really like it, too, Miss S. I'm pretty sure that Mindy and I would be friends in real life.
Enty doesn't like any female actresses who are doing well in life :(
ReplyDeleteHey @aemish is the area of Florida you live in supposed to get snow and sleet tonight?
ReplyDeleteEnty used to love Zooey. She was one of his favorites. WTF
ReplyDeleteHey Reno! What did you think of the wedding???
DeleteFar be it for Zooey to want to be associated with helping out a friend in the business. She is getting on my nerves.
ReplyDeleteRelax. This is gossip, not gospel. It's probably not even true.

DeleteHey, @Sandy *wave* :) I hope not! But apparently we had some last week, my friend said her backyard was covered in little golfballs of ice :/
ReplyDeleteYES!
ReplyDeleteVIP: 874 Kristin: 1
Zooey will just be playing the same-ish character, wouldn't she? How would that help? It's too bad - Mindy's show is actually way better than Zooey's.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Mindy's show is really good this season and New Girl has fallen flat since they paired up Nick and Jess.
DeleteZooey could say she'd guest star but FOX makes that call. It doesn't seem to happen a lot - Tina Fey never guests on Parks and Rec, Community, etc. Networks kinda keep people to their own shows, especially when both are filming at the same time. Except for the crime shows where crossovers occur. Zooey could and should at least like tweet about the Mindy Project or something similar, though. No risk for her there.

DeleteI know a lot of upper Florida is expecting some tonight especially in the Panhandle. Flights have already been canceled.
ReplyDeleteApparently Kristin and I get to guess right and first on days VIP is on casting calls.
ReplyDeleteAhh, got it. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI've met her. She's super sweet and very gracious. I do know she refused to do press for a certain movie because she hated the director. But I do know that the director was horrid and didn't quite have his act together. I like her. She's fun to be around.
ReplyDelete@writergirl, do you mean Zooey? I hope so. I love the Zooey and I'd be happy to be not alone in that fan club.
DeleteYes Zooey.
DeleteAlso I don't know what Zooey could do for Mindy anyway. Zoey is not an exec prod on her own show. Mindy has more pull than Zooey. Mindy's viewership is low. Zooey is not the answer to Mindy's problems and Mindy would know that.
Deletewhich one, Writergirl? Zooey or Mindy?
ReplyDeleteWell I'm not in the panhandle but I am at the beach.. the ocean breeze usually spares us the weather people on the other side of the ditch get **fingers crossed** (that's what we call the intracoastal)
ReplyDeleteJust glad to see this wasn't Kaley Cuoco for once.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice afternoon.. I'm off to be PTA mom for an hour **wave**
ReplyDeleteShe is not good enough for The Mindy Project!
ReplyDelete@Sugar I watched Juan Pablo last night. I'll catch up with the wedding prob tonight or tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteWe are getting ready for snow in approximately one hour here in Eastern NC. Schools and such are closed today and tomorrow.
ReplyDelete*SideEyingDerek* Still love ya though!
ReplyDeletehaha@Reno---Katy Perry and "The" Zooey----they look alike too!
ReplyDeleteEnt also said Parks and Rec would be canceled. And they were renewed.
ReplyDeleteOh well...with the way the weather has been constantly changing I'm just glad I didn't catch anything. One day 45 and cloudy and long sleeves and coats. Then 2 days of warm then back to chilly or cold.....
ReplyDeleteNew Girl and Mindy are really the only shows on TV these days that make me laugh out loud. Oh and Community. Love me some Community.
ReplyDeleteNew Girl is lame. Mindy should get her pal Lena Dunham to come in and save the day ; )

ReplyDeletewow I've heard a few things about the not so nice anymore Zooey.......but then again women who stand their ground and refuse to be walked on are always considered to be bitches now aren't they
ReplyDeletedouble standard for sure
Say what you mean and mean what you say is my motto-I've also been considered unfriendly since I don't always say yes to every favor ask
but if I say yes I do what I say I would as much as I can........
I read this in reverse since Mindy has the far more superior show.
ReplyDeleteKarma might get Zooey. On their last airings, her show only had 700K more viewers than Mindy. It's not like hers is doing much better. Personally, I love both shows, but Mindy has been killing it this season. If I had to choose one to lose, it would be New Girl.
ReplyDeleteNew Girl is nothing special this season, Mindy however, is hilarious. I just am not a fan of the cutesy/wide eyed schtick, I prefer Mindy's real woman and real issues persona.
ReplyDeleteI guess yesterday's blind about a B lister wasn't Zooey since here she's A. Altho ratings seem to shift depending on which Enty is writing!
ReplyDeleteAnd according to him, Zooey was a favorite but has gotten increasingly bitchy. Who knows?
You're probably right msgirl.
DeleteI've been a fan of The Mindy Project since day 1. Chris Messina is everything. And Mindy is awesome too.
ReplyDeleteZooey is not a nice person - shame Mindy asked the wrong person for help
ReplyDeleteThey could do a crossover. Mindy>>new girl
ReplyDeleteThey could do a crossover. Mindy>>new girl
ReplyDeleteMindy's show is AWESOME! Hysterically AWESOME! I quit watching New Girl because of that tired-eyed looking doofus on the show she started dating.
ReplyDeleteI read it in reverse because I would never think Zoey is an A actress. I would think Mindy was A though.
I'm not buying this one.
ReplyDeleteI think they're even friends.
Mindy does not need help. Her show has been fantastic.
New Girl has fallen flat. Did they go through a change of writers? It's a great cast. One only has to have seen Happy Endings to see how much they are not utilizing Damon Wayans Jr.
I will say the last episode was a step back in the right direction. I'll give them that.
I do want to know why The Zooey is not loved anymore on CDAN.
ReplyDeleteOlive, I can only speak for myself, but I never was a fan of Zooey D. I liked her in Elf, but that was it. I can't stand seeing a grown woman dressing like a 10 year old girl and playing that whole wide-eyed ingenue/I'm so "cute" role. It's silly.
ReplyDeleteThat's Zooey being "adorkable."
ReplyDeleteInteresting because The Mindy Project has been WAAAAY better than New Girl this season.
ReplyDeleteKaling's show is unwatchable and should have been canceled after its first season.
ReplyDeleteDeschanel's show is nearly as bad, but she has tons of goodwill for some reason. As she has a good (if undeserved) thing going, I don't blame her for not involving herself in Kaling's sinking ship.
Rumors are rampant Zooey has turned ultra-bitch. I think her little girl shtick is tired and played. She's nearing 40. She needs to grow up a bit, she has yet to evolve from one-trick pony. Mandy, on the other hand, is exceptionally talented and bright. I love Mindy Porject, but if it falls, she will undoubtedly rise again with something else. She is just so likable and nice, proving that you don't need to be a bitch to succeed. No excuse, Zooey.
