I ran across this charming impromptu interview with Blake Shields, where I have no idea, but when I can answer. Seems that K-Ville had just be picked up by FOX and Shields had just found out. Ah, memories. Memories of a time when the world seemed fresh and new, before the writer’s strike, and before K-Ville disappeared.
I wonder…will K-Ville be released on DVD? I know that other shows with less than perfect one-seasons are out there, so I do hope that K-Ville will get it’s just due and receive a lovely DVD packaging. It’s just too bad that the season was cut short so abruptly, and without any kind of closure ( as I don’t recognize that horrible “Ride Along” episode as any kind of finale whatsoever). I do so wish that the production could have at least lasted for the full 13 episodes rather than the ten we got.
Anyhoo, this interview makes me really appreciate Blake Shields. If you need a reminder, Shields played (so sad to write that in the past tense) Glue Boy, or Jeff Gooden. Huh, never did find out why the “Glue Boy” nickname…nor did we ever find out why “Love Tap.”
So watching this interview, I wonder why Shields hasn’t been cast in a comedy as of yet? Actually, maybe he has, but all I know him from is Sleeper Cell (a great, great show on Showtime, if you didn’t get a chance to see it, check out the DVDs for the two seasons it lasted, although Shields is only in the first season). He is very funny in this interview, and I may have a new crush!
Too bad I cancelled my MySpace account, or I’d befriend him.
This is probably one of the worst vid clips I will ever post, promise. The audio is totally out of sync, and I apologize, but still Tawny Cypress is so pretty. It’s kind of a shame that we never get to see her dolled up on K-Ville.
I really do hope that we will get some background story on both Love Tap and Glue Boy. For example, those nicknames…Huh?
If the FOX discussions boards are to be trusted, it seems as though the “Flood, Wind and Fire” episode was a hit Monday night. There was a consensus among the six, count ‘em six, posts that the FWF episode was by far the best of the season so far. It’ll be such a shame when K-Ville goes into re-runs. That is if FOX lets it go into reruns, and doesn’t decide to air “Temptation Peninsula: Escape is Futile, but Possible”.
I am trying to watch the episode on line on the FOX website, but when I opened it, Firefox quit on me. So I will try again, because now that I have read that others thought it was so good, I must watch it. That and the fact that I write this little blog.
Here’s a little background on Tawny Cypress. From IMDB.

It is also listed that her mom was Hungarian and German, and dad was an African- and Native-American with a touch of European. Anyway you look at it, it was a great recipe for Tawny. She is beautiful. And the posters on the IMDB discussions boards agree…and want her to return to Heroes.
Sure, K-Ville enjoyed a short run on FOX during the
ill-fated fall television season of 2007.
After being interrupted by the Writers' Strike, K-Ville was cancelled,
but that doesn't mean we don't see new "K-Villes" come and go every
season…This blog explores not only life after K-Ville, but also those
television programs that either exploit current events or last one season or
less.
