《卷土重来》(The Comeback)S02E01《Valerie Makes a Pilot》

HBO在今年五月确认续订Lisa Kudrow主演的概念喜剧《卷土重来》第二季……此时距离第一季结束(2005年)已经过去差不多9年时间。据称第二季被定为「6集有限剧集」,Lisa Kudrow除演出外还参与剧本创作。原版剧集的核心演员Lance Barber、Dan Bucatinsky、Robert Michael Morris、Laura Silverman、Damian Young、Malin Akerman和Kellan Lutz悉数回归。原版剧集以伪纪录片(伪真人秀)的方式讲述过气的女演员Valerie Cherish(Lisa Kudrow)试图东山再起并主演一部喜剧的故事。在第二季中,Valerie仍在追求「重返聚光灯」的梦想,但她在获得一定成就的同时也面临着一系列新问题。Valerie现在正「演出」一部HBO故事喜剧,一个纪录片拍摄团队将用镜头全程记录她的「幕后故事」。原版剧集虽然短命,却获得了三项艾美奖提名,当年令人颇感震撼。

该剧虽然只有六集,但剧情会有完整的起因、经过和结果。 HBO是否续订第三季取决于观众对第二季(复活季)的反应。Valerie(Lisa Kudrow)应该不会在第二季中死亡。

Valerie Cherish is back…for six new episodes of ‘The Comeback.’ Cameras follow Cherish as she makes yet another leap toward TV stardom, this time playing a version of herself on HBO’s drama ‘Seeing Red.’

Valerie previously starred on television sitcom ‘I’m It!,’ which sparked her nickname of ‘It Girl’ when the show was popular…back in the early ’90s. Since those glory days, however, the star’s life has been a different: Cherish — portrayed by Lisa Kudrow — was dying to get back in the spotlight so she agreed to a reality TV series, allowing cameras to follow her every move as she landed the punch-line role of Aunt Sassy on a dreadful network sitcom, ‘Room and Bored.’

‘The Comeback’ is the raw, uncensored footage from those reality cameras. Created and executive produced by Michael Patrick King and Kudrow, the dark comedy explores the madness of the television world, a Beverly Hills lifestyle, and the bravery of a comic-tragic aging actress as her career flounders.

Valerie produces her own pilot for a reality show that she hopes will get picked up by a cable network, but discovers that her archenemy, Paulie G., has his own series in the works with a plot that sounds all too familiar.
