if we have to co-cast Nick and Sarah, that's harder.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:21 (nineteen years ago)

i still go with steve buscemi.

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:21 (nineteen years ago)

i am all for hot doug's, very very much so.

i like the catherine keener idea for sarah too.

shit, there was something i was watching the other day with an actor who looked a little like nick, but i have a horrible memory for things and won't be able to recall.

mein gott, xpostiness. i was the one that proposed carmine, but i don't know the show, i just saw the picture that amanda posted!

JuliaA, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:21 (nineteen years ago)

I accept Marcia Gay Harden. I know nothing about her vibe, but I trust horseshoe's abilities in this area.

Jenny, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:22 (nineteen years ago)

you just aren't played by Steve Buscemi, though, Kevin. there's nothing to be done about it.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:22 (nineteen years ago)

yes julia gets full credit for spotting cunningham in the laverne and shirley group photo.

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:22 (nineteen years ago)

Is there something about Catherine Keener that I don't know? I guess maybe I keep associating her with the character from "Your Friends and Neighbors" and there's something really horrifying about that being Sarah.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:22 (nineteen years ago)

Carmine loves to sing showtunes too. John IS Carmine.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

Marcia Gay Harden's vibe=smart and elegant. I wanted a bit of Holly Hunter for the Southern-ness, but that might just be me exotifying you, Jenny.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

well then i want lorne greene.

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

or dick van patten.

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

KitCat, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

Catherine Keener in Walking and Talking is what I'm thinking for Sarah, Amanda. she's pretty much the opposite of her character in Friends and Neighbors in that.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

I AM GOING TO GO TO MY DEATHBED SCREAMING ABOUT THE VIBE!!!!

ILEpitaph

and think catherine keener is all wrong for sarah. Catherine Keener is not sweet on kitties. You know what I mean?

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, I like that movie, where she sniffs the sponge. Haha. I always liked that movie. Still, I disagree with Keener/Sarah.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

CATHERINE KEENER IN WALKING AND TALKING IS IN LOVE WITH KITTIES!!!

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

Fancy!

I want to have the Ric Ocasek cameo.

Casuistry, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

man, you people. with your own opinions-having. I should have withheld the list until I was done.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:26 (nineteen years ago)

for the Southern-ness

Ah, see, I am not Southern. I lived in the south but only for five of my 34 years.

Jenny, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

William Hurt is Dan.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

okay, then, it's good that I dropped Holly Hunter. (actually I'm not sure if she's originally Southern either! I've just been exotifying the wrong people!!!)

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

I may get flak for this, but Cameron Diaz for Sarah? (vs. Keener re kenan's point)

Eazy, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:29 (nineteen years ago)

Tell me more about Carmine. I never watched Happy Days or Laverne and Shirley or Welcome Back, Kotter! or Three's Company or Joanie Loves Chachi or whatever the hell he was on.

jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:30 (nineteen years ago)

um, see, the thing is I hate Cameron Diaz? and Sarah is pretty? so no. I'm sorry to be a bitch like this, but no.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:30 (nineteen years ago)

Holly Hunter was born in Conyers, GA, according to the huge list of Personalities I'm currently editing.

jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:30 (nineteen years ago)

I decided. I would like to be James Spader, plz.

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

I couldn't be happier with Ruffalo, btw.

jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

i don't know much of anything about classic tv either. i had to look up terri alden, who is "less ditzy than her predecessors".

JuliaA, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

I'm glad, John! there is, dare I say, a vibe!

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

Carmine "The Big Ragu" Ragusa (Eddie Mekka) Shirley's on and off again boyfriend, and high school sweetheart. Carmine's occasional lady companion was wealthy divorcee Lucille Lockwash, which made Shirley jealous. "The Big Ragu" is a part-time boxer who owns a dance studio and dreams of making it big as a dancer/singer. In the final episode of the series, he auditions for the Broadway musical Hair and wins a major role.

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:33 (nineteen years ago)

Kenan, you can be Spader, but I'm not sure I see it--is there a particular role you're thinking of?

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:33 (nineteen years ago)

it's the secretary, isn't it kenan.

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)

spader is always just a little unctuous

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:35 (nineteen years ago)

for Nick=Jason Schwarzmann or Benicio del Toro or Paul Rudd????

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

or someone else???? Sarah, help!

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

I am officially stressed out by this undertaking.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

Not to interrupt, but which is preferable: "the first female president" or "the first woman president"? Is it just me, or does the latter sound outdated?

jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:43 (nineteen years ago)

I like "woman president" better. female just sounds clinical to me.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:44 (nineteen years ago)

are those the only two options?

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:44 (nineteen years ago)

Just pick a short Jewish actor for me who is not Danny Devito or Jason Alexander, or otherwise fat & bald pls. Otherwise I get Goldblum.

Jordan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:45 (nineteen years ago)

my friend brett is on tastebudchicago.com today.

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:46 (nineteen years ago)

ew, Goldblum. nobody deserves Goldblum.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:46 (nineteen years ago)

What? Goldblum is awesome!

are those the only two options?

What do you suggest? "Dos-equis"?

jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:47 (nineteen years ago)

goldblum has buggy eyes.

JuliaA, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:48 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, i don't know. i guess those are the only two options.

i choose woman as well.

kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:48 (nineteen years ago)

I am just instinctively grossed out by Goldblum. have you ever seen David Duchovny playing him on SNL's Celebrity Jeopardy? that's how I feel about Goldblum.

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:48 (nineteen years ago)

oh shit! i want norm macdonald to play me!

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:49 (nineteen years ago)

YES, KEVIN, THAT TOTALLY WORKS!!!! I KISS YOU FOR SAVING MY PROJECT!!!

horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 21:49 (nineteen years ago)

Benecio Del Torro seems too... sweaty to be Nick. He's also got kind of a shady vibe whereas I think Nick is all sweetness and light.

I cannot imagine Nick mumbling, "Give me the fucking keys you fucking cocksucker what the fuck?" for example.
