1097852 I wanted to call it "Kenny Mayne has a TV show but it is only on the internet." No one ever listens to me. <object width="440" height="361"><param name="movie" value="http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/player.swf?mediaId=3695015"/><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"/><embed src="http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/player.swf?mediaId=3695015" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="440" height="361" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object> That said, I am happy with the outcome. I got to work with my old pals Josh Shelov and Todd Pellegrino and my new pal, Ted Butler. I also got to work with many, many other good people. Far too many to chronicle right here. In short, the show _"Mayne Street":http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/video/videopage?categoryId=3670864_ is like a poor man's Larry David episode. I'll be Larry David though not as dark. The show people hired real actors who really acted. We had script run-throughs, a makeup girl and sometimes they had craft services. The real actors helped the show a lot. Usually when I put together the so-called Mayne Events (lame name also) we just grab random people off the street and tell them to say incredibly funny things. When we do this we always hope that Leonardo Dicaprio or Tom Cruise will walk down the street but that hardly ever happens. In the case of Mayne Street, Leo and Tom didn't walk by, but we'd already signed up some gifted people. I might be misspelling some of the names of the actors but the guys overseeing this blog will probably correct me. Then again this is a blog and that means spelling doesn't matter. Sentence structure doesn't matter either. Nothing matters. If it mattered it would be called writing. But iT is Just a bLog. Here are the many misspelled names of the fine players. There's Jon Glaser who is mentioned first because I'm told he's like a legend among comic actors who haven't yet signed huge production deals. He plays Video Cowboy, my camera guy. Allison Becker plays my producer, and she is far funnier than most of my regular life producers, nothing against them at all. Plus she's better looking. My regular producer guys are named Ben and Drew. We have our own Ben on the show. That's Ben Schwartz who plays a weird boss. Aubrey Plaza has a pretty weird name, I know, but she's lovely and funny. She plays another weird boss. It could be argued that this “Mayne Street" thing made her what she is because right after she finished shooting with us she became a big Hollywood star. You'll see her in an upcoming Judd Apatow movie, if that's how you spell his name. Lastly, of the main players, there's Jordan Carlos. He plays a production assistant named Jordan. I don't know if the writers had created a guy named Jordan and were just waiting for an actor named Jordan to take the part or if they hired Jordan and then were too lazy to make up a character name for him. We were blessed with the opportunity to work with some fairly famous people as well. Former Sopranos Dominic Chianese, Tony Sirico and Steve Schirripa will appear along with the good cooker Bobby Flay in our finale. But that's getting ahead of ourselves as we haven't even debuted. (Whoever the guy is who is spell checking...please really try hard in this section just in case the guys listed really are crime family members. I don't want to get killed over a letter or two. Just not worth it.) This should have you really excited to watch our television show on the internet. If it has any success it will probably go directly to ABC television at which point most all of us will be replaced. It was a great run while it lasted. true 2008-11-03T16:54:03Z 71417 1 2008-11-11T10:20:16Z
