Here is a longer synopsis:
Jimmy hasn’t had any time to socialize or make friends since Hope was born, so when he meets another single dad at the grocery store, he immediately sets up a play date. But when Jimmy finds out that Virginia is his new friend’s housekeeper, Virginia insists that Jimmy cancel the outing. In an effort to keep the peace, Jimmy and his friend arrange a dinner at the Chance house.

FOX has renewed its freshman comedy “Raising Hope” for a second season.
The news, confirmed to the site exclusively this evening, will be formally announced during the network’s session at the TCA Winter Press Tour tomorrow.
Winter’s Bone has been nominated for a British Independent Film Award in the Best Foreign Film category. The winners will be announced on December 5.
Amigo was screened at AFI Fest 2010 the other day. Hollywood.com has a few pictures. Hollywood Reporter caught up with Garret at the event and got him to share a few details about the upcoming guest stars on Raising Hope, Amy Sedaris and Jason Lee. Hit the link for the spoilers. Here’s another interesting snippet:
Dillahunt has his eye on Dexter and Boardwalk Empire as TV shows he’d like to appear in, but there’s another he wants to try out.
“I’d say [Starz’s] Spartacus, but I don’t want to have to wear a loincloth. I’d be pale and hairy. Who knew Spartacus shaved down so much, right?” Dillahunt said with a laugh.
Was he surprised by Raising Hope’s full-season order?
“Not really. I think it’s a really good show. In this climate, there’s no telling what’s going to happen, but I thought it deserved it. I’m happy about it. And I don’t die in it,” Dillahunt joked. [THR]
Tyler Shields did another photoshoot with Garret, this time also with Izabella Miko (that’s Carrie from Deadwood) and Ali Cobrin. You can see the pictures here.
And another clip from Oliver Sherman showed up on YouTube. It’s a scene with Garret and Molly Parker. The film has been added to the Whistler Film Festival lineup and will be screened there on December 4 (see listing).
Two new interviews this week. A few snippets are below and you can follow the links to read the rest. The pictures are from Raising Hope 1×08, “The Sniffles,” which airs on November 8.
MG: Congratulations on Fox giving the show a full season order, what can we expect from the rest of the season? GD: I am really happy about that. It is the kind of show that will build a following. People are going to want to buy the box set of this show. I am really happy that they recognized that and they are grooming us for a long life. We are shooting our Thanksgiving episode right now. We did a Halloween one. We also have a Christmas episode in the pipeline. It is not all baby jokes [laughs]. You really get to know this family. Everyone takes stage at one time or another. There are all kinds of stories to be told here. Keep tuning it and keep telling your friends. (…)
MG: What else do you have in the works? GD: Well “Raising Hope” is taking up a lot of my time but I do have a couple of films. I actually just saw them at the Toronto Film Festival. I ended up doing “Hope” because I wanted something can could help me pay for my film career. The kind of movies I like, get drawn to and get offered are usally low budget affairs. Even though I love them, I also need to pay the rent. Thank God, I have found this incredible comedy. It could end up being the best job of my career. One of the films is called “Oliver Sherman” and the other is called “Amigo”. “Amigo” is a John Sayles film about the Philippine-American War. They are actually having a screening in LA on Nov.6th at the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. “Oliver Sherman” is with me and Donal Logue and Molly Parker. It is about a couple of veterans and dealing with coming home. I am really proud of that one. [MovieMikes.com]
How does it feel to star on one of the few new shows this fall that has actually been successful?
The word of mouth seems really good on the show. It feels great, I feel proud. I don’t think I’ve ever been on a show that has been as universally praised. Even Deadwood was more of a cult following. (…)
Do you have any scenes that you’re particularly fond of?
Well, one of my favorite ones to work on — besides just about any scene from Deadwood — was my scene with Brad Pitt in Assassination of Jesse James. That was just a fun day.
That’s a film that continues to gain stature as the years progress.
It’s sort of enjoying retroactive respect. I think it’s beautiful and I think it will remain one of my favorite projects that I’ve ever been involved with as long as I live.
And what about a scene that you weren’t in?
You know one scene I always think about is in The Godfather, when Marlon Brando’s in the hospital. Al Pacino arrives there and enlists the help of the baker to protect his father. The two of them stand outside and the baker fiddles with a cigarette lighter, but Pacino’s hands are rock steady. That’s when we sort of realize that he can do this. [Movieline.com]
