    The Sklar Bros. are Back On Topps


    Randy and Jason Sklar ("Cheap Seats") have returned to the sports world in a new web series for Topps called "Back on Topps." Described as "The Office" meets the "This is SportsCenter" campaign, the series follows twin heirs to the Topps fortune Leyland and Leif Topps, who are forced to work their way from the bottom up in their own family's company after their Uncle Marvin sells Topps to Michael Eisner (a premise based loosely on reality: Eisner did, in fact, buy Topps). Look for appearances by AST faves like Matt Walsh, Jason Nash, Ed Helms, Janet Varney and Eddie Pepitone to name a few, as well as sports figures like Baron Davis, Dennis Rodman, David Ortiz and Johnny Damon.

    "Back On Topps" is playing now on foxsports.com.

    Eddie Pepitone and Baron Davis played together at UCLA when Eddie was a (fifth-year) senior.

    So did Rodman and Walsh shortly before the THREE-PEAT while they were both in Chicago. Street ball.

    The second episode is pretty wonderful. "I think he actually said 'ASA-Possible' which I loved." Who plays the secretary? She's excellent and I'm upset I don't know anything about her.

    Aside from being founder/producer/director of the SF Sketchfest, Janet also hosts Dinner and a Movie with Paul Gilmartin, performs in the improv group Mosey, and (i believe) still puts on the Theme Park show in L.A. with Cole Stratton. Also, if you're looking for more of Janet's work, the Rifftrax Presents Dirty Dancing that she did with Cole just came out about a week ago at http://www.rifftrax.com

    Well done, Mr. Duffy. Thanks.

    Might I add that ESPN stopped showing Cheap Seats during my lunch hour and I am pissed. Can we start a petition to get it back on?

    Here's a story about new kinds of product placement on NPR's Day to Day. Andrew Wallenstein, the reporter (and deputy editor of the Hollywood Reporter), says Back on Topps is "just about the funniest web series I've ever seen."

    Janet Varney was on last night's Entourage, and will apparently be popping back up later in the season.

    It's nice to see that a hot, skinny blonde with a sense of humor can still get a break in this town...

    Check out the always hilarious "Daily Show" alum and "Office" star Ed Helms in the latest episode of Back on Topps.

    And as if that wasn't enough, there are at least 5 references to mid 80's, balding Kansas City Royal's slugger Steve Balboni.

    thanks for watching!
