Hey readers,

I was going through some old stuff and came across my scripts from my old television show that was on NBC Saturday nights at 8pm.

I had shot a total of 5 episodes of the sitcom as a recurring character ‘Bennett’ at the youth center which the show revolved around…It was executive produced by Bill Cosby and shot in New York City…

I was in about four or five scenes per episode. I had a lot of fun, lot of late nights (the Gosselin Kids have it easy!)…and when we weren’t filming, we were running around throwing spitballs at each other…

I remember one of the stars…S.Epatha Markerson walking around cutting pieces of apple for everyone…She was really nice…

On a typical day, I’d get to the studio, go through warddrobe, hair and makeup, rehearse quietly to myself, go to lunch, maybe shoot promos for TV Guide – then on Friday we shot the show twice before a live studio audience – And the director took the best take out of the two run throughs…..I remember the next day, after an episode would run, people would come up to me and say — “I saw you on TV last night — How did you get on the show?”… I’d gotten the role after appearing on another popular show the year before – and the producers remembered me and called me to come back and do a new show…So I didn’t have to audition or anything…

I can’t find anything on this show on the ‘net, so I figured Id try to capture its glory on the website…

Here’s to the cancelled sitcom “Here & Now” NBC, Saturday’s at 8pm…
