Sundance Plays Odenkirk’s “Pity Card”

Filed Under Movies

Bob Odenkirk's The Pity CardReader Sean Smith dropped word that Bob Odenkirk’s short “The Pity Card”, a segment from his television pilot “Derek and Simon” is now up on the Sundance Website. Watch Pity Card here. The short revolves around the discomfort after a first date at the Holocaust Museum with a girl who was unaware of the Holocaust. (The creative tab for the movie player says, perhaps a little defensively, the girl was based on a real person.) Zach Galifianakis also appears in the short, sharing about how a variety of diseases aren’t so bad to have. HBO appears to have been the original target for “Derek and Simon”, but they aren’t making any more. Reparations for failing to make a fifth season of Mr. Show must be repaid someday, HBO. Tick-tock.

Rumor has it Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin may appear on Saturday Night Live. She might play Tina Fey as she appears in the American Express commercials.

Tina Fey will pen a book of humorous essays for Little, Brown & Co. Her deal will involve a donation to the charity Books for Kids (who probably couldn't read Fey's book 'til they're older).

If you're ever driving through Georgia, you may want to stop by the Laurel and Hardy museum in the town of Harlem. Oliver Hardy was born in the town in 1892.
