Entertainment Now | January 18 - 24, 2020 Sunday morning | 7 By Michelle Rose TV Media We have lift-off: NASA has big plans for the new decade, includ- ing a return trip to the moon (the last moon landing was in 1972) with an eye toward a mission to Mars. But if this week is any indica - tion, the 2020s may prove to be a big decade for space on small screens, too. While all sci-loving eyes are on Patrick Stewart and streamer CBS All Access this week — "Star Trek: Picard" debuts Thursday, Jan. 23 — HBO is also shooting for the stars but is aiming for laughter with its new space- themed series. "Avenue 5" premieres Sunday, Jan. 19. The series is set a few de- cades from now, when space tour- ism has taken off and following an unprecedented era of space explo- ration. This one is more satire than sci-fi — think "Star Trek" meets "The Love Boat," with hints of "Veep." The action largely takes place on the titular cruise ship. And if the dialogue and humor re- mind you of the Julia Louis-Drey- fus comedy, there's a good rea- son: former "Veep" showrunner Armando Iannucci is at the helm of "Avenue 5" off screen, while Hugh Laurie, who had a recurring guest role on "Veep," is at the helm on screen. Laurie is best known for portray- ing the cantankerous title charac- ter on the Fox medical drama, "House, M.D." But his lengthy film- ography provides ample proof of comedic chops that were honed (or suitably showcased) on classic Britcoms such as "Blackadder" and "Jeeves and Wooster," to name a few. The actor stars as Ryan Clark, the captain of the luxury space cruise ship, which quickly experi- ences technical difficulties during its voyage. Clark and the rest of the staff — including Zach Woods ("The Office") as the head of customer relations — struggle to keep passengers calm. Add an out-of-touch bil- lionaire (Josh Gad, better known to parents as the voice of Olaf in the "Frozen" movies), and a boozy former astronaut (Ethan Phillips, aka Neelix in "Star Trek: Voyager"), and the situation is ripe with chaos and (hopefully) comedy. Gadot's TV gigs: Can't get enough of that "Wonder Wom- an 1984" trailer? Currently in post-production, the film is due out in theaters on June 5. In the meantime, Wonder Woman her- self, actress Gal Gadot, has 01/19 7 AM 7:30 8 AM 8:30 9 AM 9:30 10 AM 10:30 11 AM 11:30 12 PM 12:30 S1 S2 WTTV 4 Paid Program A.
