He said, ‘I just want to congratulate all of you and everyone who deserved the nomination, got a nomination.’ And Brad’s face just went like, ‘did he say what I think he just said?...

Top Hollywood publicist and executive Joy Fehily has resigned from her post at public relations firm Pmk-Bnc, individuals familiar with the move told Variety.
Fehily steps down in the midst of a five-year deal with the show business institution, insiders said, which reps A-list actors and below-the-line talent as well as huge brands like American Express. She will move into a consulting role with as many as 40 accounts that will remain at the agency — and become a manager for longtime client and “Family Guy” creator Seth MacFarlane, his production company Fuzzy Door and his charitable foundation.
Fehily, who will remain at the company the company through the end of July, and Pmk-bnc chairman and CEO Cindi Berger confirmed the news but did not comment further.

SyFy apparently has been stashing all the money it makes from professional wrastling since the network announced (I refuse to use the word "unveil," it sounds ritualistic, creepy, and moist) its new lineup, consisting of more original content than they've ever hosted before. Well, they use the hyperbolic "in history" which I just don't think should be used for a network that wouldn't even be able to drink for another three years if it was a person. Let's take a few choice bits from the press release and then flip through the new shows.
The press release starts with: "Continuing the sizzling momentum of the Syfy global brand evolution, which has sparked imagination-driven hit series and double-digit growth in younger, upscale audiences as well as diverse new business ventures..."
Can momentum really sizzle? I mean, strictly from a science point of view, momentum is the product of mass and velocity...

Syfy, which is meeting advertisers today at its upfront presentation in New York, continues to be focused on launching a single-camera comedy series. After developing half-hour projects for the past year, Syfy has narrowed the field for a potential pilot order. It includes supernatural comedy In the Dark, which joins Three Inches, a half-hour version of Syfy's hourlong pilot, and previously announced Me and Lee. In the Dark follows a misfit group of third-tier ghost hunters whose misguided efforts tend to highlight their incompetence rather than paranormal activity. From Universal Cable Prods., In the Dark is being written by Michael Davidoff and Bill Rosenthal, who are exec producing with Dan Taberski through Idiot Box Prods. In Three Inches, professional daydreamer and underachiever Walter Spackman is struck by lightning and develops a unique "super" power -- the ability to move any object using just his mind ... but only a distance of three inches.
