...Michael Richards, as you may have seen in ‘Hitch’ he is a very adept physical comedian, combined with his verbal chops. He’s joined by one of the few sitcom wives with any personality, Leah Remini and the legendary Jerry Stiller??father of Ben—as her live-in father. This weeks’ episode marked the departure of Nicole Sullivan, who plays dog-walker (and senior-citizen walker Holly) for a co-starring role on the new show “Hot Properties,” a show about...

You can’t help but feel that something is at stake in the limitations of Stiller??s characters; in Zoolander, everyone is inside on the the joke, whether it be Jerry Stiller??s prostrate-troubled modeling agent or the rock band of Finnish dwarves that live at Owen Wilson’s pad. As a result, the film becomes just one damn thing after...
