Entertainment Now | April 30 - May 6, 2022 By Adam Thomlison TV Media Q: What has Hugh Laurie been up to? I feel like I haven't seen him in a while. A: The short answer to your question seems to be that he's having a ball. I don't mean to imply that an ac- tor's job isn't difficult, but a highly respected, A-list comedy star seems to have it easier than most, and Hugh Laurie (best known on these shores as the star of Fox's "House") seems to be using his stature to only take gigs that look like fun. For starters, he's continuing work on his own sitcom, HBO's "Avenue 5," which was created by industry darling Armando Iannucci ("Veep"). Its second season is due out later this year. Laurie also recently wrapped work on two feature-length ani- mated comedies: "The Amazing Maurice," based on a novel by be- loved children's author Terry Pratchett, and "The Canterville Ghost," based on a short story by Oscar Wilde. The latter film reunites him with longtime comedy partner Stephen Fry ("Gosford Park," 2001). Laurie was also recently booked for a leading role in "All the Light We Cannot See," a miniseries ad- aptation of the Pulitzer-winning novel of the same name — a series that's sure to attract awards-sea- son attention. And in case you missed it, he also worked behind the scenes as director and screenwriter of "Why Didn't They Ask Evans?," a minise- ries adaptation of an Agatha Chris- tie novel. (What patriotic English- man wouldn't do that if he had the chance?) That series was released last month on the streaming ser- vice BritBox. These roles cover the full range from goofy to prestigious, and so they're just the kinds of things we should expect from Laurie at a time in his career when he can more or less do whatever he likes. Q: I am curious. Is "Good Witch" ever coming back again? It has been quite a while since it went off the air. A: She's through casting spells on Hallmark's "Good Witch," but star Catherine Bell is up to some- thing almost as unbelievable for Lifetime. Sadly, "Good Witch" has offi- cially been canceled after seven seasons and multiple telefilms and Halloween specials. The show end- ed with its many characters all poised to embark on new adven- tures together, which naturally raised hopes of a spinoff or follow- 4 | Saturday morning 04/30 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 CBS Saturday Morning (N) Lucky Dog Innovation Nation Mission: Unstop.
