"Theo" and "George" To Team Up

Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Jason Alexander will play co-anchors on a cable-TV sports show in an upcoming comedy pilot for CBS, the Hollywood Reporter reported today (Friday). Both actors have experienced somewhat checkered careers since appearing on top-rated TV sitcoms, Warner in The Cosby Show and Alexander in Seinfeld. Alexander's casting in a role based on Washington Post columnist/ESPN commentator Tony Kornheiser had been announced in early October ("We have the same hair," Kornheiser commented at the time.) Originally titled Shut Up and Listen, the series is now listed as "untitled." The casting of Warner, whose last series, Malcolm and Eddie on the low-rated UPN, folded in 2000, had been widely rumored. "Malcolm came in and owned the room," Regency TV exec Erin Simon Berenson told the Reporter. "He was so sexy and funny and cool, there was no way not to cast him."

Malcolm & Eddie may have been low rated and not all that funny but it stayed on the air a few season. Jason was better at selling chicken for KFC than doing sitcoms!

Malcolm is playing on a tv show right now on Showtime network called Jeremiah with Luke Perry. I've never seen the show cause i don't have Showtime. I have seen a commercial for the show. Malcolm & Eddie was a good tv show to me. I watched it all the time when it was on. Eddie Griffin is so funny & i'm a fan of his. Angelle Brooks who played on Malcolm & Eddie as a waitress from 96-97 was a cutiepie. I've seen her on The Parkers too as professor Ogilvie's woman & she was in The Brothers movie with Bill Bellamy, Morris Chestnut, DL Hughley. I've also seen her on VIP tv show with Pamela Anderson. I think she was Pamela's roommate on the show. VIP had some sexy women on that show. I didn't know Malcolm & Eddie lasted from 96-2000.

I can`t wait to see it. Malcam Jamal Warner was really good looking, although I haven`t seen any recent pics of him.
