Frasier and Everybody Loves Raymond are two very different shows. While both aired in the 1990s and early 2000s, they appeared on different networks and largely appealed to different audiences. Their subject matters were distinct, too. Frasier followed a radio psychologist as he navigated an upper-crust life in Seattle. Everybody Loves Raymond focused on Ray Barone and his extended family in New York. Still, the two shows have an unlikely connection. In fact, Frasier is partly responsible for getting Everybody Loves Raymond off the ground in a roundabout way.

While Frasier and Everybody Loves Raymond were two different shows, a spec script for one led to the development of the other. Phil Rosenthal, the co-creator of Everybody Loves Raymond, sat down with the Television Academy in 2005 to discuss...

Phil Rosenthal, creator and showrunner of “Everybody Loves Raymond,” has pitched a reunion special for the domestic comedy that starred Ray Romano, Patricia Heaton and Brad Garrett, but so far hasn’t found a home for it — despite the recent success of similar offerings, including the “Friends” gathering on HBO Max.

The producer disclosed his hopes for a reunion on “SiriusXM’s Pop Culture Spotlight with Jessica Shaw,” talking about how he has pitched it to “a couple of different places,” but has not had any takers. The interview is set to air Tuesday at 10 a.m. Et on SiriusXM Stars.

“Here’s what I really can’t believe,” Rosenthal said. “We can tell stories of the things that have happened to us at home, and then show a clip of the Raymond episode that that became, and I think it will be entertaining and funny, and you’ll get...

Max Rosenthal, a Holocaust survivor and father of “Everybody Loves Raymond” creator Phil Rosenthal who became a character in many of his son’s TV projects, died June 26 at the age of 95, his son confirmed.

Max Rosenthal was known for his appearances on his son’s food-focused unscripted series, “I’ll Have What Phil’s Having” for PBS and “Somebody Feed Phil” for Netflix. He had a recurring role on “Raymond” during its 1996-2005 run on CBS as Max, a lodge buddy of Peter Boyle’s Frank Barone.

“As heartbroken as we are, we are so grateful that he was our dad, our grandpa, our friend, our favorite and funniest TV star and the role model for how to live 95 years while being the sweet, gentle, kind, compassionate and really, really funny,” Phil Rosenthal wrote Sunday on Instagram. He called him “the biggest influence in my life.”

The Actors Fund broke ground today on the Hollywood Arts Collective, a $120 million project that will include 151 units of affordable housing for artists, an 86-seat theater, art galleries, rehearsal studios, nonprofit arts office space and a new home for The Actors Fund’s Western region headquarters. It’s expected to open in 2024.

See the virtual groundbreaking here:

Located on Hollywood Boulevard between Wilcox Avenue and Schrader Boulevard, the Hollywood Arts Collective “is exactly what our city needs and deserves: affordable housing for the extraordinary artists who make Los Angeles the creative capital of the world,” said Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti. “And it’s also a performing arts space and center right here in the heart of Hollywood that will showcase what makes this community so special and vibrant.”

“It’s been a challenging year and this project gives us a source of pride,” Garcetti said during the virtual groundbreaking.

The cast of the classic CBS sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond will reunite for the first time since the show ended in 2005 to honor their late costar Peter Boyle and raise money to battle the disease that ended his life.

Ray Romano, Patricia Heaton, Brad Garrett, Monica Horan and Raymond co-creator and Executive Producer Phil Rosenthal will participate in a 90-minute event that will include table readings of popular scenes from the series. (Costar Doris Roberts died in 2016.) Set for this Friday, October 23, at 9 p.m. Et/6 p.m. Pt., the event will benefit the Peter Boyle Research Fund of The International Myeloma Foundation.

Lynn Shelton and Fred Willard both landed Emmy nominations posthumously when they were announced on Tuesday morning.

It marks the first Emmy nomination for Shelton, who scored a nod in the best directing for a limited series, movie or special category for Hulu’s “Little Fires Everywhere.” Specifically, Shelton, who directed four episodes of the limited drama, is up for the episode “Find a Way,” the final installment of the series. “Little Fires Everywhere” got five nominations overall, including limited series and lead actress in a limited series or movie for Kerry Washington. “Little Fires Everywhere” is based on Celeste Ng’s hit novel of the same name, and also starred Reese Witherspoon.

Shelton died of a blood disorder on May 16 at the age of 54. The indie filmmaker was also known for movies like “Humpday” and “Your Sister’s Sister,” but worked extensively in television as well, directing episodes of “The Mindy Project,...

Fred Willard was an actor, a comedian, an improv genius and a gentle soul. The performer, who died May 15 of natural causes at the age of 86, was beloved in the creative community because he offered the rarest commodity in showbiz.

“He was a guarantee,” says Phil Rosenthal, creator and showrunner of “Everybody Loves Raymond,” which featured Willard in a recurring role in its later seasons.

“With Fred Willard, when his face popped up in a show or a movie, you suddenly got a little jolt of ‘This is going to be funny,’” Rosenthal says. “There are way more famous comedians who can carry movies, but you can’t always guarantee that they’re going to be funny. Fred was a guarantee.”

Willard was known for playing dimwitted characters and straitlaced, average guys who would say and do unexpectedly outrageous things.

A review of “No Limit,” this week’s Better Things, coming up just as soon as my name is also Olivier…

“No Limit” is bookended by a pair of doctor visits for Sam. The first is mostly a comedy sketch, as Sam makes things deeply uncomfortable with her gynecologist by joking that there’s only a thin layer of latex separating a clinical exam from a sex act. The second is more serious, though it generates some laughs from the blunt profanity of Dr. Babu (Usman Ally). Sam has had...

You can always count on plenty of plot twists when watching daytime soaps, and that’s also true of the Daytime Emmys, whose 2019 nominations were announced on March 20 live on CBS’s “The Talk.” Check out the full list of nominees here to see who made the cut, and scroll down to find out who didn’t.

These nominations were preceded by the pre-nominations, which were announced in January and included all the actors in each drama category whose work would then be evaluated by blue ribbon panels to decide the nominees and winners. The number-one show in those pre-nominations was “The Young and the Restless,” which had 21 actors cited across seven races. It was shocking then to see that only five of those actors made the final list of nominees.

Happy Friday and weekend, "Bold And The Beautiful" fans. Unfortunately, it's one of those times again where we must inform you guys that your favorite soap opera is taking another break for two whole days this week. I knew something was up when they didn't take Christmas day off. They're totally making up for it to start off New Year's week. That's right, guys. This Monday, December 31, 2018 and Tuesday, January 1, 2019, CBS will not be airing new episodes of The Bold And The Beautiful. Instead, you guys will be served up a dose of reruns.

Happy Wednesday, "Bold And The Beautiful" fans. Today's December 26, 2018 episode featured some very interesting and intense scenes. We finally got to see what has the new guy Reese Buckingham shaking in his boots and why he's really trying to make moves on Taylor. It turns out that Reese owes somebody a whopping $200,000 dollars! That's a lot of money folks, and it's highly apparent that Reese doesn't have it. Reese got seriously threatened by the guy that's been sent to collect on Reese's massive debt. Reese tried to tell him, "You'll get your money," but the guy said it's owed right now. So, that is definitely not a good situation for Reese. Elsewhere, Liam and Hope had some new scenes together. Hope sprung a surprise trip to Catalina Island on Liam. Hope told him, "The flight is already booked, and we're taking off today." Liam was pretty shocked by Hope's surprise,...

We’ve been fortunate lately to find ourselves basking in pop culture goodness—the Emmys, book signings by Molly Ringwald and Allison Arngrim, even jury duty orientation with Judge Lance Ito. But on the Richter scale of legendary celebrity, few create a bigger ripple than Debbie Reynolds. So yesterday was especially good. We were able to see Ms. Reynolds in her one-woman show, Alive and Fabulous, at the El Portal Theatre in Burbank adjacent North Hollywood, California—an opportunity that seems all the richer this morning given the news of Tony Curtis’ death.

Let us start by saying that she was as sparkly and delightful as we had expected. She dazzled in a head-to-toe glittery gold gown (and matching jacket) for the first act. And after intermission, returned in a shimmery blue pantsuit. D’lovely.

And she brought what the audience came to see. A whole lot of song,...
