Neil voicing character in CBS Christmas story

By Rach | Published Fri Nov-6-09 -

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Neil will voice a character in the CBS Christmas animated telling of “Yes, Virginia”, along with Jennifer Love Hewitt and Alfred Molina. The story is “animated telling of the story of an 8-year-old girl in late 19th century New York seeking the truth about whether Santa Claus exists”, and will air on CBS on December 11th.

Pre-Emmy Roundup: Saturday

Once again there are various Neil focus pieces floating around: Time Magazine, the Hollywood Reporter, and Entertainment Weekly’s Popwatch previews the piece in this week’s print issue (which you can see scans of here).

“If I don’t win, it’ll be fantastic,” he says. “I’ve got tons of jokes ready for that. If I do win, I think I have to go do the press gauntlet midshow, and then they’ll cut to me back there saying, ‘Our next two presenters are…’ I thought about calling [Malcolm in the Middle’s] Chris Masterson and seeing if he would sub in for me, as me, while I went to the gauntlet, and not even make a reference to the fact that he’s not me. Just have him keep going. Because I get told I was wonderful on Malcolm in the Middle almost as much as I get told I was wonderful on Doogie Howser.“

His appearance on Ellen yesterday is now on YouTube, you can listen to him chatting on On Air With Ryan Seacrest, and you can also watch another red carpet video from the Pepsi Max CBS Premiere Party here.

And if you have time to kill, AfterElton.com has a Neil Patrick Harris online jigsaw puzzle, and RightCelebrity presents the argument for Neil being The Sexiest Man Alive.

Batman, the Emmys & more

By Rach | Published Tue Aug-4-09 -

We’re back! Sorry for the extended hiatus, catching up after holidays is always hard work!

Many thanks to Vanessa for getting in touch about this – Neil’s episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold (“Mayhem of the Music Meister”) is set to air in Australia this Saturday (August 8th) on Channel 9 at 8.35am/9.35am depending on your time zone. The episode is listed on both yourtv.com.au and Channel Nine‘s website, so it seems pretty accurate. The episode has so far only aired at Comic Con and isn’t set to air in the US until “sometime in the fall” so if it’s correct, Australia are getting a treat!

There’s been some controversy over the last day or so about the announcement of the decision to present some of the awards at this year’s Emmys before the ceremony airs on TV. The LA Times reports on what Neil and executive producer Don Mischer had to say about that at this year’s TCA Press Tour. Neil is currently still in Montreal shooting “Beastly” and so appeared at the Press Tour via Satellite – EW.com’s Michael Ausiello reports on what went on during the Emmy segment.

And we’ve finally had some confirmation on Neil’s part in “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”. Cinematical.com talks to the people behind the movie here – How I Met Your Mother writers Chris Miller and Phil Lord. He will indeed be voiceing Steve the Monkey, “Flint’s monkey who has been hardwired with a speech device. However, he usually only runs around saying his own name.”

Thanks to entwashian from LiveJournal for allowing us to use her lovely scans in the gallery – you can see them here.

CBS Watch Magazine is available as a free subscription from the CBS Watch Magazine website if you live in the United States. If you don’t (like us!) then you’re (officially) out of luck, though there are a number of copies available on eBay.
