Season 1 of Lookinglass To Have 11 Episodes

Entertainment Weekly and Deadline are reporting that the debut season of Lookinglass, which was originally supposed to have 13 episodes, has been trimmed to eleven. This is fairly common for midseason replacements, and has nothing to do with what they expect of the show, but is instead related to the network’s scheduling needs.

The obvious good news is that we now know how many episodes we’ll get! The EW article mentions that Fox will be announcing their midseason schedule in the coming weeks, so hopefully we’ll get a premiere date soon.

In the meantime, here’s a great shot of Tim with actor Paolo Maiolo, filming episode 6 last week in Vancouver.

And this shot from Amanda Detmer, filming a scene with Tim and Rob Kazinsky.

The Bizarro Jerry is one of Paste’s 10 Best Seinfeld Episodes

Chris Morgan of Paste Magazine has ranked one of Tim’s Seinfeld episodes, “The Bizarro Jerry,” third on his list of the show’s ten best episodes!

3. The Bizarro Jerry

Bizarro Jerry

This episode is silly in many ways. After all, Elaine finds herself in a bizarro world with its own Jerry, George, Kramer and Newman. Kramer starts working a job for no reason. Jerry dates Man Hands. George finds himself going to secret model parties. Yet, it all works. Kramer’s storyline is hilarious. The bizarro thing is out there, yes, but if you are willing to accept it, it’s hilarious and delightfully weird. The show had earned this chance through years of shrewd character development, and they made the most of the opportunity.

For the full list of the 10 best Seinfeld episodes, check out the article here.

(Thanks to Kevin McClave for the heads-up!)
