The gang is back for a second season of “Grand Crew” on March 3, and cast members Nicole Byer, Echo Kellum, Justin Cunningham, Aaron Jennings, Carl Tart and Grasie Mercedes break down what we can expect in this exclusive trailer for the NBC series.
Says Tart, “We heard your messages. We read the tweets. This season we are drinking real wine, so now we are drunk as skunks.”
In a scene from Season 2, which you can watch above, Wyatt (Cunningham) toasts the crew with a glass of water, even though everyone tells him it’s bad luck. Sure enough, he chokes on the water, his stool falls over and his pants split. When he sighs and says, “Someone get me a damn glass of wine,” every one of his friends offers their own glass.

The titular bash in It's a Party never quiet gets started, but the movie clicks from first moment to last. Working within obvious budget restrictions, director Weldon Wong Powers and his vibrant ensemble of comedians, actors and musicians turn a slender, single-setting premise into something dynamic. The movie, which premiered at Cinequest and recently played the Atlanta Film Festival, introduces a terrific collection of performers and could find an ardent following in streaming formats as well as in select U.S. theatrical markets.

Rooster Teeth has a new series within a series set to take advantage of one of the biggest entertainment events of the last decade. The Fullscreen-owned Austin production company will run the sketch comedy and Star Wars spoof series Troopin’ starting November 2015 during its Colton Dunn-hosted show Rooster Teeth Entertainment System (Rt-es).
Created by Lamar Woods and Dunn (who also stars in Rooster Teeth’s recently-premiered feature film Lazer Team), the series-within-a-series Troopin’ introduces viewers to a black stormtrooper named Darnell (played by Ify Nwadiwe) and his wife Shonda (Ashanti Brown). It's set to explore how the hardest part of Darnell's job is dealing with life, love, and his Jedi neighbors (and, surprisingly, not ignorant individuals who were up in arms over the casting of John Boyega as a black stormtrooper for Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens).
"Troopin’ is inspired by old school sitcoms like Good Times and What's Happening,...
