Entertainment Now | June 24 - 30, 2023 By Adam Thomlison TV Media Q: What's Joel McHale doing now? I haven't seen him in any- thing since "Community." A: The short answer is that he's been having fun while he looks for his next "Community." And there's a chance he's found it. Joel McHale is still best known as the superficially charming, fast- talking Jeff Winger on the cult-fa- vorite 2010s sitcom "Community." He has a healthy sideline as a comedy talk show host, thanks largely to his long run as host of E!'s "The Soup" from 2004 to 2015. But that gig ended in 2015, the same year as "Community." Since then, McHale has tried leading a few new sitcoms and a couple of hosting gigs, while filling the rest of the time with truly fun- sounding movie roles (for example, he played his former "Community" co-star Chevy Chase in the 2018 comedy-history movie "A Futile and Stupid Gesture"). So far, none of his lead or host- ing roles have lasted. For example, he had a sitcom in 2016-17 called "The Great Indoors" and a talk show called "The Joel McHale Show With Joel McHale" in 2018, but both were cancelled after a season. But he's broken the one-season curse with two new shows at the same time: his new sitcom, "Ani- mal Control," which was recently renewed for a second season on Fox, and the baking competition show he hosts, "Crime Scene Kitchen," which debuted its sec- ond season earlier this month. Getting a renewal for "Animal Control" is kind of a big deal. Fox largely chose to step away from scripted shows in its upcoming 2023-24 season, which had to build in the midst of the writers strike. Renewing "Animal Control" is a big commitment to staying in the Joel McHale business. The love that people still have for "Community" has also contin- ued paying off for McHale. For ex- ample, when all production was shut down during the pandemic, he and fellow "Community" alum Ken Jeong did a podcast together, virtually, where they just chatted and answered fan questions about the show. And he appeared on an episode of Jeong's own sitcom, "Dr. Ken," in 2016. Q: We watched a movie about large robots battling creatures from under the ocean. At first it looked like "Pacific Rim," but it had much lower production value. What was it? A: What you watched was 4 | Saturday morning 06/24 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 (N) Innovation (N) Mission (N) Hope-Wild (N) Lucky Dog Did I Mention Paid Programming Paid Programming 4 4 WRTV 6 WRTV Week In Review (N) Good Morning America (N) Good Morning America (N) Retirement Hearts of Heroes Free Enterprise Retirement Vets Saving Pets Hearts of Heroes 6 6 @ WPTA WPTA Saturday Morning News II (N) Good Morning America (N) Good Morning America (N) Wildlife Nation oh baby!
