Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

1 Apr

Mad Men returns this weekend and even though the show has been wrapped for sometime there’s a couple of treats from costume designer Janie Bryant and all round Mad Men queen Kiernan Shipka. Plus some cancellation sadness mixed in with show renewals and a tee I definitely need in my life.

 

The Variety Emmy Studio was a stylish affair and a very happy one for some reunited actors including Masters of Sex duo Lizzy Caplan and Allison Janney. This photo looks like the happiest place in the world.

Kiernan Shipka has posted a bunch of old Mad Men photos to celebrate its return this weekend; this is both wonderful/super cute and also inadvertently makes me feel ancient. The adorable wins out over the age thing.

 

I love seeing sketch to screen shots and Janie Bryant’s work on Mad Men is always exquisite. Looking forward to all the costuming treats from the final episodes.

 

Vincent Kartheiser showing off some excellent photobomb skills at the Mad Men Black & Red Ball. 

 

The Looking cancellation sadness is still very strong and I don’t think this photo is helping much there.

 

Making things a little better is Lennon Parham’s Playing House season 2 table read offering.

Gillian Jacobs has gone all Three’s Company and she’s making it work.

 

Not everyone gets to do their homework in front of giant Lenin mural. The perks of working on The Americans (which also got renewed this week!).

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

25 Mar

Season and series finales (*SOB*), new season prep, mocked up album artwork and promotional tours are all part of this week’s busy “Behind the Insta-Scenes.”

 

Kroll Show ended its third and final season last night; there are photos from Nick Kroll, Jenny Slate and Chelsea Peretti in this week’s edition and I’m going to miss Farley, PubLIZity, Too Much Tuna, Ruth Diamond Phillips and many other wonderful beautiful fuck ups from this show. One part of the above collection of Kroll cast and crew that has me getting emotional is Jenny Slate’s ‘First Lady of Kroll Show’ sash.

https://instagram.com/p/0nc9bfOqdB/?taken-by=jennyslate

 

Jenny Slate posted this glorious photo of an important moment in the history of Kroll Show. Excellent red lipstick points also awarded.

 

Look like dis! Farely, I heart you.

 

And now a season finale which is now the series finale and I’m super sad about today’s Looking news. Yes, they’re going to get a special to wrap it up so that’s something, but not the something I was hoping for despite the teeeerible viewing figures. Here is Patrick’s big Felicity moment.

 

The big Mad Men goodbye has only just begun and I am so not ready for it. What I am more than ready for is all the sartorial offerings from January Jones and the rest of the cast. So here for this monochromatic look and for Jones’ Instagram game.

 

Actual crying at this mocked up album art for Marnie & Desi in total She & Him fashion despite how much he protests against this comparison. The music on Girls and especially the tracks from the closing credits has been A+ this season and thankfully did not include this duo (Marnie by herself and particularly in this finale is strangely bearable).

 

Earlier this evening I wrote about how thrilled I am about The X-Files returning and David Duchovny shares a flash from the past to say the same. Hopefully there will be some updated versions of these kinds of shots when they return to the set.

 

In other TV news it was announced today that Masters of Sex will be back for season 3 Sunday, July 12 and costume designer extraordinaire Ane Crabtree shows a sneak peek into her design/inspiration process with Libby Masters herself, Caitlin Fitzgerald.

 

The big Game of Thrones season 5 promo push continues with Maisie Williams taking over the Entertainment Weekly Instagram account before her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! 

 

Bonus Maisie Williams from the official GoT account posing with both Arya and Sansa Funko Pop figures. If only the pair would be reunited on screen soon.

 

Netflix launched down under in New Zealand and Australia this week with some of the stars of their original programming on hand to celebrate including Orange is the New Black’s Uzo Aduba and Yael Stone here with Netflix Daredevil newbies Charlie Cox and Deborah Ann Woll.

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

18 Mar

Season finales, editing food breaks and a whole lot of PaleyFest and SXSW style shots are part of this week’s TV Instagram roundup.

Let’s get to it!

https://instagram.com/p/0IZuOjux_4/?taken-by=dansackheim

 

Dan Sackheim is directing the season finale of The Americans and while his series of shots pretty much gave nothing away (except for an all important turtleneck Philip costume choice), I have a feeling some airport shenanigans are going to take place. The giant plane logo being the giveaway. I would make an excellent spy.

https://instagram.com/p/0MKEgypQ9L/?taken-by=mindykaling

 

Continuing the theme of good gift givers, Stephen Colbert adds his name to the list. Now I really want fancy ice cream in funky packaging.

https://instagram.com/p/0N7McctoMO/?taken-by=amypoehlersmartgirls

 

This is cute. Real life couple feels.

https://instagram.com/p/0SoKmiDFtz/?taken-by=gillianjacobs

 

Gillian Jacobs retains her TV Ate My Wardrobe Style Queen crown in Novis at SXSW. I haven’t seen the new Community yet, but I’m pretty certain I will be very into the stripe sweaters Britta will no doubt be sporting.

 

So here for all things Amy Schumer related. Red dress yes.

 

Gina Rodriguez and Yael Grobglas are PaleyFest cuties and this week’s episode of Jane the Virgin somehow made me ship Petra and Rafael. I blame the dog.

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

11 Mar

Welcome to another midweek edition of Behind the Insta-Scenes with a Gossip Girl reunion, snowy weather, guest stars and a lot of very funny people.

 

Beyoncé tickets are her birthright and Gina’s flawless style is giving me denim jacket and striped skirt ideas.

 

Rumor has it that Kelly Rutherford and Matthew Settle have done what Rufus and Lily could not; I am a sucker for cast members being romantically entwined or besties after a show is dunzo. Here they are joined Caroline Lagerfelt who played Rutherford’s on screen mother and CeCe was not one of Rufus’ biggest fans. It looks a lot cozier IRL.

https://instagram.com/p/0Ed_Fft6v6/?modal=true

 

After appearing at the Night of Too Many Stars live telethon Abbi and Ilana are hanging out with Jon Stewart again – this time at The Daily Show.

 

Jane the Virgin returned this week with yet another fabulous fantasy infused setup.

 

The final season of Kroll Show continues to draw all the names in comedy and some super slicked back hair from Aziz.

https://instagram.com/p/z1SWgnuqTP/?modal=true

 

Adam Pally is a very good gift giver. Their coat and scarf game is also v. strong.

 

Spring is upon us but not before the snow has one last final hurrah. Here is the very pretty and albeit very cold looking trailer area on Elementary.

 

DVD sets that don’t come with any episode commentaries don’t quite fulfill their boxset potential; this is not the case with Looking as Frankie J. Alvarez captures one session in action.

 

And here is Daniel Franzese post recording session and a very busy day. Franzese is killing it as Eddie on Looking this season and here is the excellent Buzzfeed article he mentions in the caption.

https://instagram.com/p/0CCrPcP__S/?modal=true

 

Taking the crown for guest star related joy from The Mindy Project is The Good Wife with Lawrence Gilliard Jr. and Arvin Sloane (Ron Rifkin).

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

4 Mar

Guest stars, saying goodbye, a premiere date for one of our favorite shows and more behind-the-scenes action in this midweek TV Instagram roundup.

 

The answer to “Where is Clyde?” is quite easy this week.

https://instagram.com/p/zspjsbCtGc/?modal=true

 

It turns out that people don’t hate laughing as the numbers for Last Man on Earth’s debut are rather good. Hopefully it continues this way as I enjoyed the heck out of these first two episodes and Will Forte is still a dreamboat even with the super grizzly beard (his beard level in the photo above is pretty great).

https://instagram.com/p/zvmXoOzRFa/?modal=true

 

On Monday Netflix announced when season 3 of Orange is the New Black will be available (June 12) allowing us to plan ahead and book the day off work. The cast of OITNB has a huge presence on Instagram and Dascha Polanco went for this cute inventive way to announce this date.

 

Slightly less artistic but still getting the message across is Laura Prepon with hashtags at the ready. And the bonus news for Alex/Piper fans – or anyone who watches the show really – is that Larry will not be showing up.

https://instagram.com/p/zwHIs3pQ1m/?modal=true

 

LAURA DERN IS MINDY’S OB/GYN?! Yeah I’m pretty excited about this and the guest stars on The Mindy Project this season have been A+ (which is why so many of them have featured in this column).

 

There is so much bad photoshop used on both TV and in movies when it comes to splicing two photographs together and it has a habit of taking you out of the moment (see also using promo photos for what are supposed to be framed family shots and The Americans triumphs in this area by not doing this). Not so on Looking and I totally believe that this is a photo of Doris and Dom from their teen years and not two separate photos of Lauren Weedman and Murray Bartlett. Dom + Doris = ❤

 

This episode (and season) of Looking is fantastic and so here is bonus dudes being all adorable photo.

https://instagram.com/p/zxwsF0tMy3/?modal=true

 

Yep Damon Wayans Jr. is leaving New Girl and I agree with Hannah Simone. I also think this might be another jumpsuit I might like.

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

26 Feb

A very busy Behind the Insta-Scenes this week with Oscars action, Mindy Project guest star heaven, the end of Parks and Rec (*sob*) and other set shenanigans.

 

Winners and losers hanging out together all smiles at the Governors Ball. Yes I yelped with happiness when Questlove appeared on stage during “Everything is Awesome.”

 

The only caption this needs is swoooooooooooooooooon.

 

A Gossip Girl reunion we didn’t know we wanted at Elton John’s annual AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party.

 

What to do between parties? Grabbing a burger with Jonathan Groff in a tuxedo sure sounds like a great idea. Just don’t spill any sauce on that white shirt.

 

Halloween in February for Looking with an excellent and high on the cringe factor episode. Bonus points for costumes which actually looked homemade rather than the TV version of homemade.

https://instagram.com/p/zV1KvAJQz8/?modal=true

 

The Mindy Project excels in the guest department and what could be better than a very beardy Stephen Colbert as a priest?! Not much.

 

Parks and Recreation finale sadness combined with how much I heart this cast equals all the feelings.

 

Ben Schwartz has been posting Parks and Rec behind the scenes photos for the duration of season 7 and this is definitely one of my all time fave Jean-Ralphio moments.

 

Splendid dresses and posing skills from the ladies on Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

 

Even spies still want to grab a quick cup of coffee.

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

19 Feb

Saturday Night Live celebrated its 40th anniversary with a 3-hour plus show including many famous faces and it was well documented behind the scenes thanks to numerous Instagram posts. This is a SNL “Behind the Insta-Scenes” special with shots from during the show, in the audience and at the after party.

 

Prince continues his tour of making famous people lose their shit (see also the Golden Globes and Grammys) and Questlove captured this amazing shot of both Prince and the amount of people taking his photo at the post show bash.

 

Maya Rudolph was on stage with Prince during that performance and I like to think this giddy shot is a delayed reaction to this. This also sums up how I feel about Maya Rudolph; she is magic.

http://instagram.com/p/zLJYoKJLOl/?modal=true

 

This is one of many photos Taran Killam shared (and they’re worth checking out) from his SNL 40 experience and it is right in the midst of the action.

http://instagram.com/p/zLNcz-pLHp/?modal=true

 

And here is an adorable one from when it was all over.

 

An Ally McBeal reunion and Lucy Liu picked her date well.

 

That’s a pretty good seat Lucy Liu has and she captured the crazy crowded SNL stage.

 

Bradley Cooper looks a lot like He-Man in his Californians getup backstage with Kerry Washington.

http://instagram.com/p/zJXcZei1HA/?modal=true

 

The 70s and Gilda Radner look suits Emma Stone.

 

Thankfully there is not a selfie stick in sight.

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

12 Feb

Behind the Insta-Scenes has guest stars aplenty and hanging out on set (in more ways than just mooching around) from a variety of shows such as Jane the Virgin, Orphan Black and Broad City.

 

Bellamy Young captures Scott Foley looking good in a hoodie on the set of Scandal. From the caption I guess we have to assume that sadly there won’t be a Mellie/Jake interaction.

 

The Mindy Project continues to kill it in the guest star department with Laverne Cox appearing in a later episode as Tamra’s cousin Sheena. I cannot wait.

 

Gina Rodriguez celebrated her one year anniversary since auditioning for Jane the Virgin with this shot and sweet sentiment. I need those candles in my life.

http://instagram.com/p/yxblS6t6mP/?modal=true

 

Yep (although not currently Friday, still wonderful).

 

Nick Kroll guest starred on Brooklyn Nine-Nine and it is as brilliant as Kroll’s excellent beard.

http://instagram.com/p/y84FKCAVEp/?modal=true

 

Behind the scenes green screen magic or in this case black and white magic from The Flash’s Grant Gustin.

http://instagram.com/p/y0Ep3CjFrk/?modal=true

 

I also love Gilliam Jacobs’ Clare Vivier bag.

 

Diane Kruger continues to win Instagram and this time it is not Pacey related.

 

Helena’s creepy trinkets anyone?

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

5 Feb

Welcome to another edition of “Behind the Insta-Scenes” and this week we have show crossovers, some sunshine, Parks and Recreation flashbacks, production art and a hilarious Broad City video.

http://instagram.com/p/ynZ4QKgVC6/?modal=true

 

Another Flash/Arrow visit is in the pipeline and here’s Brandon Routh taking a visit to Star City for some suit assistance.

 

Ben Schwartz continues his Tuesday trip down Parks and Rec memory lane and this week he revisits the days of Entertainment 720. Woah those panda sneakers and major desk chair envy.

http://instagram.com/p/yp2ujJuqes/?modal=true

 

Kroll Show took a visit to a very familiar looking bar.

 

Niece Denise! A Kroll Show double this week as I can’t resist this much fringe.

http://instagram.com/p/ypycU4mRlu/?modal=true

 

Tracee Ellis Ross is torturing us with this glorious sunshine lunch break photo.

 

This is a very cool custom made prop from the set of Elementary.

 

Ilana is awesome on Broad City, but she is also a terrible person to share a desk with and her colleague Nicole is keeping track of everything. Press play to find out what Ilana has done this time.

 

The highlight from the latest Tonight Show lip sync battle would definitely please Abbi from Broad City.

 

So this is not from a set, but it is far too adorable to keep from these pages. Once again Diane Kruger wins at Instagram.

Behind the Insta-Scenes: Photos from the Set

29 Jan

Welcome to this week’s edition of Behind the Insta-Scenes and it is a mixture of more awards shenanigans mixed in with set antics.

 

Mark Ruffalo couldn’t attend the SAG awards but I applaud his choice of location and pajamas upon hearing the news he had won for The Normal Heart. I love red carpet fashion (as you can probably tell) and yet I would love to see a bed wear approach more often.

 

Abbie’s boot collection on Sleepy Hollow is a sight to behold and envy.

 

Reminding everyone to watch the show by sharing this very cute photo of the Girls ladies is Allison Williams. This doesn’t reflect the emotional state of the characters at the moment, but maybe by the end of the season at least one of them will feel either professionally or personally fulfilled. Maybe.

 

I don’t think there’s much to add to Pedro Pascal’s already perfect caption.

 

Another amazing pair from the SAG awards looking foxy as hell.

http://instagram.com/p/yUvvDBJQ2V/?modal=true

 

Dispatches from Sundance (or returning from) and I am strongly feeling Mindy’s look. Oh and here is the amazing panel they both took part in.

 

The selfie that we didn’t get to see on this week’s Looking in all its glory thanks to Frankie J. Alvarez. I would like a look at all the different versions please.
