About this product

Product Information

Go to any bar in Hollywood and you're sure to find a hard-done-by writer who is drowning his or her sorrows after being chewed up and spat out by the network television system. In THE TV SET, Mike Klein (David Duchovny) seems set to join them. Klein's script for a TV show called THE WEXLER CHRONICLES was inspired by his brother's suicide, and is very close to his heart. After selling the script to PDN, who are headed by a fearsome executive simply known as Lenny (Sigourney Weaver), Klein watches as everything from the casting to the production goes horribly wrong. Klein has one buddy at the network, a Brit named Richard McCallister. McCallister's former position at the BBC leads Klein to believe that some quality control will be exerted over his project, and hopes McCallister will pull it out of the mire of mundanity that PDN thrives on. But he's very, very wrong, and as Klein's dream turns into dust--the show barely resembles anything he wrote--his health takes a turn for the worse and he enters mid-life-crisis mode.Duchovny and Weaver are outstanding in their roles, adding just the right balance of humor and anger to their characters. THE TV SET is ostensibly a comedy, but may make for painful viewing for anyone involved in the industry, or anyone who hates seeing dreams shattered. But director Jake Kasdan (ZERO EFFECT) manages to add a large dose of absurdity to the proceedings, saving it from being too depressing, and making many of the scenes a genuine hoot.

    To me, suicide has always been the premise...

    The main reason I bought this movie, because when I was a teenager and the X-Files was a really cool show, I thought David Duchovny was hot. A secondary reason was when I watched the trailer on youtube, I found that the movie contained one of the best lines I have heard in a long time. "If I don't worry about the content of my show, I'm part of the problem. I'm making the world more mediocre!!" Very true indeed. Also "Frankly, original scares me a little" And "suicide is depressing, to like 82% of people." Really? Of course, most of the best lines have been sardine-packed into the trailer, and David Duchovney does play a very similar role to his character on Californication. If you like the pacing on shows like Californication and Extras, you will probably like this movie. Otherwise, you ...
