IFC debuted this series called "Framed" on Dec. 14, but I just got around to watching the first episode.
The show pairs an athlete with a celebrity. The athlete becomes the actor and the celebrity becomes the first-time director for a short film. Neat concept.
Emmanuelle Chriqui, aka Sloan, was first up with Baron Davis of the Golden State Warriors. Together, they produced a pretty funky little short. However, IFC's site doesn't have the video available and YouTube searching only resulted in this clip from the half-hour show.
Still, check it out, and look IFC's Web site for future airings. She did a pretty good job with the story pitch.

Entourage marathon on tonight...I'm watching the eps for the billionth time. On "The Day F***ers" episode when Turtle tells Drama he can't wear the bunny suit, Drama tells him to close his eyes like he did when he had sex with an ugly girl in high school. In the original ep, he clearly says that her name is Judy. Tonight, it was (badly) changed to say Trudy, and then when Turtle asks, "You thought Judy was ugly?" it was changed to, "You thought she was ugly?" Any idea why the change was made? I know you did a story on where they got the real names, so I'm wondering if someone complained about their name being on the show (you know, because it was associated with being ugly in this example). Any ideas?
