These two co-stars are both foreign born. They are on a hit show that is not seen everywhere. Kind of a syndicated thing. They both have various side projects and they both have cheated while working on their side projects. A divorce is coming. Soon.
shows still are syndicated or is this something like GOT?
ReplyDeletethrowing out Gabriel Byrne and Jessalyn Gilsing The Vikings
ReplyDeleteDamian Lewis/Helen McRory? are they working together....
ReplyDeleteBut Enty is hinting they are married to each other.....so throw that guess out
ReplyDeleteAre they cheating *with* each other or *on* each other? Who's married?
ReplyDeleteI'm confused.
There's no excuse for me not knowing Gabriel Byrne is on a show.
ReplyDeleteIt's about Vikings--you root for the Eagles. I don't blame you, you thought it was a football show :D
ReplyDeleteAnna Paquin and Steven Moyer maybe?
ReplyDeleteAnna Paquin & Steven Moyer?
ReplyDeleteLOL!
ReplyDeleteNext time I need an enabler, I'll hit you up.
Maybe this is what enty means by "kind of a syndicated thing":
ReplyDeleteWhile that old syndication model still exists, streaming services such as Amazon, Netflix and Hulu are quickly supplementing and even replacing cable network and local TV stations as buyers of content.
HBO is just adjusting to this new reality by syndicating its shows to Amazon instead of (or in addition to) cable channels.
True Blood, which has never been syndicated anywhere before, is probably the most lucrative of all the titles headed to Amazon.
gabriel byrne used to be so hot.
ReplyDeletenow he's not. sigh.
the show might be talk show-ish. I just can't think of any couples.
ReplyDeleteGabriel byrne
ReplyDeleteOnly was in vikings for a few episodes of season 1, the show is in its 4th season. Jessalyn is not in this season. Maybe linus roach or clive standen and morgane polanski?
Martin Freeman/Amanda Abbington - Sherlock costars(she has reoccurring role). Both side gigs....not married but together 15 + years so what's the common law term if exists in the Uk!!:)
ReplyDeletehttp://www.express.co.uk/celebrity-news/470101/Martin-Freeman-hints-that-he-may-have-already-be-married-to-partner-Amanda-Abbington
ReplyDeleteDing Ding. I live in the UK and its assumed they are- Freeman also gave the above interview stating he wouldn't say "they weren't" and to "leave it a mystery".
+1--- i never never never got these two together..esp. long term...
ReplyDelete+2 great job tricia13 understanding that mess.
ReplyDeleteFreeman is on Fargo SBS Abbington is also on Mr. Selfridge ( or was) with a couple other things they each have done as well.
So is the new normal going to be 13 blinds and 3 reveals?
ReplyDeletenevermind- 4 reveals today.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a stretch. No it's more likely a couple who are current costars on a show not seen by everyone or on a limited channel, I think. Not a couple who were formerly costars on a defunct pay cable show that may stream (don't know , didn't watch it when if was on cable either). Just seems overly worked?
ReplyDeleteByrne was killed off the first season, Gilsig was killed off last season.
ReplyDeleteAlso how could they both have current "side projects" where they cheat if the show has been off the air for years ? It's a current show for sure.
ReplyDeleteSince it is such a "stretch" what is your answer?
ReplyDeleteEnty means those types of shows like Hercules, Highlander, Zena Warrior Princess that were shows currently airing but were in syndication. Syndication doesn't always mean old shows, it's talk shows, game shows, & any other type of shows that don't have a specific network they're on. The shows are individually sold to local networks like Baywatch was. If a show is a huge success the producers & production company can usually make more money from having a syndicated hit than from putting it on a network like NBC.
ReplyDeleteI think NBC was the network that approached the producers of Baywatch to buy the show back when it was a giant hit, but they were turned down because they made more money from syndicating it. Most shows in syndication don't do well, except for talk shows & game shows. That's why most people try to go through a network. There's a higher chance of the show being a success through that system instead of individually selling to each local market yourself.
I think you are missing my point. I know what syndication is, however there are new approaches to syndication by selling to say, Netflix, hulu, Amazon, etc.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard anyone call selling a show to Amazon or Netflix as "syndication." That word/term has a very specific meaning in Hollywood. It has to do with local TV stations or selling the rights to an old show to a cable channel. Technically I guess it would be syndication, but that's not how the word is used when it comes to Netflix/Amazon Prime.
ReplyDeleteCan broadcasting syndication evolve like the rest of the world? Or should we just keep it in a box, like you keeping it?
ReplyDeleteIt's not me keeping it that way. It's Hollywood as a whole. They use different words, some of those words didn't exists a few years ago. "Streaming" had a whole other definition way back when, now it's a word used with Netflix & Amazon. Syndication is used for TV, Cable, but I've never heard someone use it for online services like Netflix or Amazon Prime.
ReplyDeleteThey're two different businesses run in different ways. Netflix doesn't run it's business like Hollywood runs their business. They have completely different ideas of what's a hit & what's not & they have different terms that reflect the differences in the business models. Syndication is an old term that's used for the older business (TV/Cable.) Those businesses are now considered old, they might be going away if you believe Wallstreet, so to reflect that Netflix/Amazon/Hulu aren't the same as network & cable channels they use different terms. When I've heard the heads of streaming services talk they seem to like using different terms because they consider TV/Cable dying mediums, so they don't want their business lumped in with a dying medium. They want to be viewed as new & cutting edge. The future. So why would they want to use a term that's used for a medium they don't consider themselves a part of?
It's like newspapers vs websites/blogs. A ton of the "blogs" aren't what a blog was originally supposed to be. Now they're basically online news papers or magazines. But at some point they decided they didn't want to be lumped in with newspapers & magazines because they're dying. So they use different terms when talking about their businesses.
I ranted a little too much on this! Sorry but I've grown up in Hollywood, my dad ran a studio, my mom was an actress, my husbands in PR. When any conversation heads in the direction of talking about the business part of showbiz I'm pretty passionate about it & go on too long like this! :)
When I attempted to read your reply but I totally fell asleep.
ReplyDeleteWhat I meant is, yeah, you're pretty insane. It's just a blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm insane because I can type fast & had 5 minutes to spare? That's how long it took to type that. It's a subject I'm very familiar with, so I wrote an answer to your question. You said something idiotic so I wrote a reply that pointed out why what you posted was wrong. The insane person is the one that says something that's wrong & insults the person that's telling them why they're wrong. It's tremendous weakness & insanity to attack people that you can learn something from. You said something stupid & instead of going "Well now I know why I was wrong" you insult to make yourself not feel like the moron that you are. Good job idiot!
ReplyDeleteYeah, you're not insane at all... Get a life weirdo.

ReplyDeleteCalling someone an idiot on a tabloid blog is a really lame, just because you cannot open your eyes to a new concept. No one cares about your family's professions. And I am not wrong and I cannot learn anything from you.
"While that old syndication model still exists, streaming services such as Amazon, Netflix and Hulu are quickly supplementing and even replacing cable network and local TV stations as buyers of content. CBS, for example, recently turned The Good Wife into a $2 million per episode asset by selling reruns of the show to Amazon, Hulu, the Hallmark Channel and local TV stations. HBO is just adjusting to this new reality by syndicating its shows to Amazon instead of (or in addition to) cable channels. (Worth noting: HBO competitor Showtime has been in the SVOD space for a while now, putting library shows such as Dexter, The Borgias, The United States of Tara and The L Word on Netflix as well as Amazon Prime.)"
