Celebrities Act out On AMC; 'CELEBRITY CHARADES,' AMC's New Star-Studded Party Event, Premieres June 20 at 9 PM ET/PT
JERICHO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 9, 2005--AMC:
-- Executive Produced by Emmy-Award(R) Winning Actor Chad Lowe, Acclaimed Actor/Director Bob Balaban and Academy Award(R) Winner Hilary Swank
-- Celebrity Participants During the Five Episodes Include Stanley Tucci, Lorraine Bracco, Julianna Margulies, Bebe Neuwirth, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Billy Baldwin, Hank Azaria, Rosie Perez and Carson Kressley
Witness the fierce competition, frenetic action and impulsive fun when celebrities give their best "over-the-top" performances for a good cause as AMC hosts a star-studded party in its latest original series, CELEBRITY CHARADES. Executive produced by acclaimed actor/director Bob Balaban ("Gosford Park"), Emmy Award(R)-winning actor Chad Lowe and Academy Award(R) winner Hilary Swank, the series puts a new spin on the familiar as celebrities get their game on to mime movie titles for their individual charitable causes. During each half-hour episode, games are played, dinner is served and the guests mingle and talk between rounds. CELEBRITY CHARADES' five new episodes will air as a special AMC event on five consecutive nights beginning on June 20, 2005 at 9 PM ET/PT.
CELEBRITY CHARADES invites viewers to a celebrity party held in an intimate New York City loft apartment where Balaban and Lowe welcome their friends - among them fellow actors Stanley Tucci, Lorraine Bracco, Julianna Margulies, Sam Rockwell, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Griffin Dunne, Billy Baldwin, Kristen Johnston, Hank Azaria, Rosie Perez, Carson Kressley, designers Cynthia Rowley and Isaac Mizrahi, and singer Vanessa Carlton - to play three rounds of "running charades." Each of the new episodes offer viewers an inside look at the personal relationships amongst the celebrity friends as the camera captures conversations, antics and inside jokes the group shares with one another over dinner, and continues to reveal throughout the game. The stars also speak about the charity they are playing for and why they support the worthy cause, through individual or group interviews.
THE RULES OF RUNNING CHARADES:
CELEBRITY CHARADES employs two teams, with five celebrities on each team. Teams are placed in separate rooms, while a neutral player gives one member of each team the same clue to act out. Each movie title clue is thematically linked to a movie-related topic. The first team to correctly guess all ten charades and their overall theme wins the game. A tiebreaker clue is enacted if both teams are even. On the lower third of the screen viewers will see fun facts and trivia about the current clue and can keep tally of each teams correct answers via a running score card.
Adam Kassen and Mark Kassen of Trigger Street Independent produce the show. Lowe and Swank executive produce the series via their Accomplice Films banner.
Producer/director/actor/writer Bob Balaban produced "Gosford Park" which won an Academy Award(R), Golden Globe Award, British Academy Award, New York Critic's Award and SAG Award. He has appeared in over 50 movies including "A Mighty Wind" and the soon to be release "Capote." He produced and directed the hit play "The Exonerated," and produced, directed and wrote "The Last Good Time," starring Armin Mueller-Stahl, Maureen Stapleton and Lionel Stander," which won for best director and best film at the Hamptons International Film Festival, and directed "Parents," starring Randy Quaid, Sandy Dennis and Marybeth Hurt. He directed the pilot for the long running series, "Tales From the Darkside" and last year produced, directed and starred in "Sex and the Suburbs," a pilot for Fox FX. In addition to his work at AMC, he is producing and directing "Hopeless Pictures," an animated series for IFC.
Born in Dayton, Ohio, Chad Lowe has appeared extensively in film, television and theater. In 1992, he won an Emmy(R) for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for "Life Goes On." Notable television guest star appearances have included such top rated dramas as "Law & Order SVU," "Without A Trace, CSI Miami, "Medium," and a recurring role on "ER." Feature film appearances include roles in "Nobody's Perfect" and Adrian Lyne's "Unfaithful." He recently appeared off Broadway in "The Exonerated." Chad recently directed two episodes of "Hack" for CBS, an episode of "Law & Order SVU" and his short film "The Space Between" is screening at international film festivals.
He is in preproduction on his feature film directing debut, "Beautiful, Ohio" based on a short story by Ethan Canin. Lowe is starring in the upcoming Hallmark Channel film "Fielders Choice" airing on June 18.
Hilary Swank joins her husband, actor Chad Lowe and their friend Bob Balaban, to executive produce this series. Swank has earned lead actress Oscars(R) for her portayal of the title character in Clint Eastwood's "Million Dollar Baby" and for her revered performance as 'Brandon Teena' in "Boys Don't Cry." She also recently starred in HBOs "Iron Jawed Angels" for which she received Golden Globe and SAG Award nominations. She will be seen next in Brian De Palma's "The Black Dahlia."

-
It was last night? Did I miss her? I'd really like to see that.
-
she wasn't on Monday's episode.
i taped last nights, but haven't watched it yet. anyone know about Tuesdays episode?
-

-
I watched the beginning but just to make sure Vanessa wasn't on. She wasn't.
-
I dont get AMC!!!!! :cry: I'm sooo sad!!!!!!!!!
-
haha...i just watched last nights show the whole way, even though she wasn't on it. it's such a fun show.
i'll be watching tonight even if she isn't on
i saw a commercial for tonights episode, it mentioned a few names and "others" so still not sure if she's on tonight.
-

-
??how do you that she will be on tonight??
because i'm watching it right now
oh...and as for the upload part...seeming how i'm recording on VHS, i'd need to convert it to digital in order to upload it.
if someone has an easier way, bit torrent for example, that might be a tad quicker.
-
oh...i get it.... you live in New Jersey!! Im three hours behind... Tell us how it was when its over
-
the show was great. she did a good job (even though I think she kinna messed up the end) :lol:
V even mentioned how her label basically did nothing to promote Harmonium. :lol:
-
please try and upload them!!
-
please try and upload them!!
shit...i thought I could convert it, but i dont have the rigth cable I need, but I can probably get it tomorrow.
like i said, if someone has bit torrent, they may be able to download it faster than i can convert it.
-
i enjoyed it verrrrrrrry much, it was a really clever and classy show.
v had an awesome sense of humor, especially the joking pole dancing reference...

steveau said 2gb...unless that's just the overall size of the actual mailbox and not the max file size allowed.

Thanks dude!

no problem.

why aren 't any of the links working for me :cry: :cry: :cry:
-
Thank you so much, Brian and Steveau! I just got done watching it. Vanessa is definitely the "pimp" of charades, lol.
-
:lol:
you're welcome
-
Hehe, a pimp, indeed! She's adorable.
I thought it was annoying that some of the people didn't know who the hell she was. I was thinking, "Well, who the hell are YOU?!" :roll: :lol:
-
I loved how she talked about her label...Her face was just...You could see she was trying to not sound rude about them....
-

I KNOW! Exactly what I was thinking. I didn't know a lot of the people on the show. And they should KNOW vanessa :evil:
-
Yeah...I don't want Vanessa to JUST be known for ATM, but you'd think everyone would know her because of that song!
I hear far too many people say, "Who's Vanessa Carlton?" these days. We must show them the way! lol.
-

I got asked thta today at work.
I just shook my head and called him uncultured ;)
-
It really is sad that people don't know her. I bet she'd have a much larger fanbase if more people knew who she was. I've been spreading the word as much as I can though. I love Vanessa! She was so pretty and cute on CC. The losers from that show better have gone out and bought her cd!
-
Well most people know her as "The Thousand Miles Chick" which really kinda sucks because that kinda shows her as a one-hit wonder (even though she's had other "hits" but that's the most famous) and a washed-up singer who never came back... but she is still out there and is a real artist, and I mean everytime I've had my friends listen to her they've been pleasantly surprised, and they all bought the cd. I mean, her music is amazing. People should know about it. And I'm happy that she says this third album will be known, so people can realize her awesomeness :D .
-
I still haven't gotten to see this show yet, but this is a little unfortunate how her name is not getting out there to a lot of people. I really hope what she says about her next album comes true, that everyone is gonna know about this one! :D
