Title: Danneel to appear on new VH1 series! (Free Radio)
Description: Update: Airdates/times added!


Paula - October 29, 2007 06:18 AM (GMT)
I noticed a new credit for a guest spot on a show called "Free Radio" has been added to Danneel's IMDb profile and did some investigation. The show will apparently be premiering sometime in the first quarter of 2008. Here's some info I've found on it so far...

QUOTE
FREE RADIO (8 episodes)

"Free Radio" is a half-hour improvised comedy where the worlds of celebrity, mediocrity and talk radio collide. It is a comedic, behind-the-scenes look at a struggling Los Angeles radio station and its dysfunctional staff, led by Lance, the dimwitted, laughably ignorant, yet inexplicably popular host of "Moron in the Morning." Celebrity guests from film, television, music and stage join Lance every week in the booth as they promote their latest projects while enduring his clueless questions and oblivious take on the world. Lance is played by improv comedian Lance Krall ("The Joe Schmo Show").

It says Danneel will be playing herself in episode 7 of the series. I really hope the info about Danneel appearing is legit (since anyone can submit info to IMDb and it's not always right), because this sounds like it'll be funny!


Edit: See my post below that includes premiere/airdate info.

Edit 2: Scroll down for my post with links to view the trailer and/or premiere episode online, as well as a screen cap of Danneel!

Sweetness! More Danneel time!

For some reason the title make me think of Radio Free Rosco, I doubt anyone knows what that is here though. lol

aww wow! thanks for posting.. will keep a close eye on utorrent and other sources for this one!

if it's on.. can someone please record? :lol:

Paula - October 29, 2007 06:57 PM (GMT)
I'd be happy to record/upload clips of the show for the overseas folks who won't be able to see it, but the device I used to use to input video into my computer isn't compatible with my new computer. Their website has a Vista software upgrade, but it doesn't seem to work. When I try to rip video, the screen goes blue and the computer resets itself. <_<

So until I'm able to work around that, I'm out of the TV pirating business. lol

But there is a good chance it will be available on VH1.com. I think they put a lot of their programming online now. Otherwise I'm sure the Danneel fan sites will have it.

yaaaaaaaay

Looks like this will be premiering on February 8th. Danneel is supposed to be in episode seven, so assuming it's a weekly series, that puts her airdate at about March 21st. Still some time away, but it's something!

twinzz-evelien - January 5, 2008 01:58 PM (GMT)
whoops..i had totally forgotten about this one -_-

thanks for the reminder

VH1 has put out a press release on the show...

'FREE RADIO,' VH1'S NEW IMPROVISED COMEDY STARS LANCE KRALL PREMIERES FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8 WITH BACK-TO-BACK EPISODES STARTING AT 9:30 PM*
Released by VH1

[NOTE: The following article is a press release issued by the aforementioned network and/or company. Any errors, typos, etc. are attributed to the original author. The release is reproduced solely for the dissemination of the enclosed information.]

'Free Radio,' VH1's New Improvised Comedy Stars Lance Krall Premieres Friday, February 8 With Back-to-Back Episodes Starting at 9:30 PM*

Series Features Special Appearances by Kiefer Sutherland, Ray Romano, Tony Shalhoub, Fred Willard and Many More

Catch A Sneak Peek Of The Premiere Episode On VH1.com Beginning Friday, February 1

NEW YORK, Jan. 30 -- How does a dim-witted intern become a radio superstar? Find out as VH1's new improvised comedy series, "Free Radio," chronicles the Cinderella story of Lance, a radio show intern, who answers his call to greatness by jumping in to host a popular morning show, when the real host defects to satellite radio. Lance's hosting effort (full of botched celebrity interviews, on-air tantrums and all around buffoonery) is so spectacularly awful that ratings actually go up.

In addition to the rise of our hero, Lance, (played by Lance Krall of "The Joe Schmo Show" and "The Lance Krall Show") "Free Radio" follows the dysfunctional staff at KBOM, as they try to adjust to life with their new unlikely star. From the frustrated station manager, James (played by Brian Huskey) to co-host, Anna, (played by Anna Vocino), they all put up with Lance for the sake of ratings, dubbing his new show, "Moron in the Morning."

The half-hour series, "Free Radio" premieres with back-to-back episodes Friday, February 8 starting at 9:30 PM*. As an improvised comedy, it offers a fresh alternative to the typical sitcom, showing just how far real A-List celebrities will go to tolerate a complete moron. Celebrity guests from film, television, music and stage join Lance in his booth to promote their latest projects and endure Lance's clueless questions and oblivious take on the world. Hollywood luminaries from "24's" Kiefer Sutherland to three-time Emmy Award winner Tony Shalhoub ("Monk") to "Jack Coleman ("Heroes") and Ray Romano, are subjected to the idiot storm that is Lance and "Moron in the Morning." While runaway celebrity interviews make up the bulk of the show, "Free Radio" also goes behind the scenes to depict our loveably dim hero's struggle to deal with his newfound fame and earn the respect of his co- workers.

Catch a special sneak peak of episode one on VH1.com beginning Friday, February 1 -- eight days before the on-air premiere. VH1.com will be home to exclusive video content throughout the season. Additional episodes will be available on VH1.com the night following each episode's on-air premiere. VH1 Mobile will also offer select "Free Radio" video throughout the season.

"Free Radio" was created and is executive produced by Lance Krall and Rory Rosegarten. Jim Ackerman serves as Executive Producer and Mike Riley as Supervising Producer for VH1.

VH1 connects viewers to the music, artists and pop culture that matter to them most with TV series, specials, live events, exclusive online content and public affairs initiatives. VH1 is available in 90 million households in the U.S. VH1 also has an array of digital channels and services including VH1Classic, VH1 Soul, VH1 Mobile, VH1Games and extensive broadband video on VH1.com.

Ooh, back-to-back episodes means Danneel's episode will be airing even sooner! :P

twinzz-dorien - January 31, 2008 06:33 PM (GMT)
:P thx for posting paula!

(what r back to back epis??)

Paula - January 31, 2008 06:39 PM (GMT)
"Back-to-back" means one after another... two in a row, I think, in this case. (Though it also applies to marathons where a bunch of episodes play in a row - they're back-to-back-to-back-to-back or whatever. lol)

twinzz-dorien - January 31, 2008 06:40 PM (GMT)
oh right! (whoops LOL)


Paula - February 10, 2008 05:55 AM (GMT)
I watched the premiere of this last night (very strange show, rather annoying...) - in the opening they do a little montage with quick flashes of random guests, and I spotted Danneel! The show sucks (so far?), but I'm still excited to see her on it. lol

You can view the premiere episode on VH1.com (here) - the montage Danneel appears in is at about -5:20, though it probably goes too fast for you to see her (I put it in slow motion on my DVR).

Or you can catch it at the end of the "super trailer" on YouTube:

Here's a screen capture...

(Capped from YouTube, so the quality sucks, sorry.)

twinzz-evelien - February 10, 2008 08:10 PM (GMT)
this might come as a shocker but i totally noticed her in the fast forward part of the trailer LOL...

Paula - February 11, 2008 01:22 AM (GMT)
Yeah, so did I, which is what made me go back and play it in slow-motion on my DVR. I knew I saw her in there somewhere! lol

Elle - February 11, 2008 10:37 PM (GMT)
She looks so adorable in that pic! :lol:

Paula - February 12, 2008 07:31 PM (GMT)
I know, the look on her face cracks me up. The host is no doubt doing/saying something stupid. (I don't know if you watched any of the episode I linked, but he'd a freaking tool! lol)

annemiek - February 12, 2008 07:37 PM (GMT)
LOL i couldnt watch the ep coz its only viewable inside the US it said but I watched the promo and (dont hate me..) but I love stuff like that...LOL I really hope Danneel's ep will be on YT or something...gotta see it somehow! :)

Paula - February 12, 2008 10:10 PM (GMT)
I'm sure it will make it onto YouTube or something so you can see it. If not we'll figure out a way for the non-US people to see it.

Oh, and nothing against people who actually like the show. I'll give it another chance. I was tired/half asleep when I watched it and maybe just not in the mood for that kind of thing, and some shows take a few episodes to really find their footing. Hopefully I'll take more of a liking to it by the time Danneel appears. I can see the potential there, but the lead guy/host was just sooo grating that I could barely stand to watch it. lol

twinzz-evelien - February 14, 2008 11:53 PM (GMT)
LOL@the huge headphone! :lol:

Paula - February 15, 2008 05:01 AM (GMT)
By my estimation (unless they do more back-to-backs [just one is airing this week] or skip any weeks), Danneel's episode should be airing on March 7th.

Paula - February 17, 2008 08:27 AM (GMT)
So I watched the show again this week and enjoyed it a lot more than last week. I laughed out loud a few times. So that's a good sign! Hopefully Danneel's episode will be good. B)

twinzz-evelien - February 18, 2008 07:08 PM (GMT)
maybe it'll be hilarious by the time Danneel comes though haha

twinzz-dorien - February 18, 2008 07:21 PM (GMT)
this is, to my opinion what's gonna happen when it airs:

- episode airs

5...4..3...2..1

youtube: free radio, danneel harris

- see video here LOL

twinzz-dorien - February 18, 2008 07:47 PM (GMT)
someone who works on the show is on myspace...i send him a message asking him if he knew whne danneel's episode was airing :P

hope he replies soon!

Paula - February 19, 2008 01:49 AM (GMT)
^ I bet he says March 7th. :P

UGH, CRAP. I just realized - I'll be in Orlando then! Ugghhh. Guess I'll see it when I get home. -_-

twinzz-evelien - February 19, 2008 09:05 PM (GMT)
you won't have a tv in orlando? :huh:

Paula - February 19, 2008 10:35 PM (GMT)
Well yeah, the hotel room will have one, but in my experience hotel TVs have a very random assortment of channels and it's nearly impossible to find the ones you're looking for. And the show airs at I think 9:30 Orlando time - highly doubt I'll be back at the hotel yet at that time on Friday night. lol

Maybe I can catch one of the later reruns if I can figure out where VH1 is on the TV. Otherwise it will be waiting for me on my DVR when I get home.

twinzz-dorien - March 11, 2008 12:20 AM (GMT)
hey guys

thought some of you (who can actually watch it LOL) might wanna know the airing dates

Paula - March 14, 2008 10:54 PM (GMT)
I don't really know. I'm sure the Danneel sites will have it uploaded ASAP. If not, I'll see what I can do.

annemiek - March 14, 2008 10:56 PM (GMT)
I'll be trying all my resources from 5am too *g*....I hope someone uploads....if so, ill let ya know

annemiek - March 15, 2008 10:29 AM (GMT)

twinzz-dorien - March 15, 2008 11:20 AM (GMT)
