If you are looking for a comedy, or a film that deals with what goes on before a tv series hits the air, I can recommend Jake Kasdan's The TV Set. It's a very amusing tale of the rather sad and twisted world of tv writers, execs, and actors (and to a small degree, tech people). A lot of the people in it are really good, and it features some of my favorite actresses (Judy Greer, Lindsay Sloane, Justine Bateman) and the charming Ioan Gruffudd (as a poor guy who's brought in from BBC America to class-up the network). But the undeniable star of the show is Sigourney Weaver. She's perfect. I'd presume she'd be in the running for some end of the year acting honors. She should be. It's a great comic performance.
