The other day I planned a Brooklyn Blogfest planning meeting at the Brooklyn Lyceum except we couldn’t get into the Lyceum because it was filled with Bored to Death actors and production crew.
I guess I shoulda checked with the Lyceum first.
For the past few weeks they’ve been shooting that popular (and I imagine very funny) show written by Jonathan Ames in Park Slope. I imagine it’s been a good thing for the Lyceum. In fact, I hear the new floor in the downstairs “auditorium” has something to do with Bored to Death.
Bored to Death: we love you.
Since we couldn’t get in, we had our meeting sitting on the stoop of the Lyceum. While we talked technical details of the upcoming Blogfest, the show’s stars Ted Danson, Zach Galifianakis and Jason Schwartzman came out of the building. Exciting. Is that a cool cast or what. Extras dressed as The Green Hornet and Ghostbuster entered our frame of vision as well. It was really hard to concentrate.
Really hard to concentrate. We were trying to have a serious meeting about Blogfest and all these actors were distracting us.
Yeesh.
Our producer said it was like some kind of vaudeville routine. The whole thing was kinda funny.
