variety is reporting that wb pictures is remaking the tv show “chips” for the silver screen. wilmer valderrama has been chosen to fill erik estrada’s pants…I mean, boots. did you know that ponch’s full name is francis llewellyn poncherello? somehow “officer francis” just isn’t as intimidating as ponch.
no word on who will play ponch’s partner, jon baker, but I have come up with some suggestions for all the casting directors who read this blog (mary jo slater):
james van der beek
jon heder
seth green
benjamin mckenzie
matthew lillard
heath ledger (I think he’s too hot to play jon, because ponch is the ladies’ man, but maybe he can play jon gay, like in brokeback mountain)
Personally, I’d like to see Heath Ledger in the role. I’d like to see him in ANY role, really. Benjamin McKenzie would be a good choice too, looks wise, and because we share the same birthday. I’ve never seen him act though (I’m probably the only person in America who has not watched “The O.C.”).
nope, you are not the only person in america who hasn’t watched the oc. I haven’t either.
but I think I might be the only person who doesn’t love raymond.
I haven’t watched the OC either. Gallagher’s eyebrows frighten me. Like they could reach out of the TV and grab me. Like the girl in The Ring. and I don’t love Raymond either. 🙂
Nope! Jeff and I HATE Raymond! Ali does too.
