S2 of Party Down Ends With a Wedding

Tonight marks the end of Season 2 for Party Down, and much like its Season 1 finale, the action takes place at a wedding. And the blushing bride is none other than Season 1 scene stealer, Jane Lynch’s Constance Carmell.

Here’s a preview of what’s sure to be another wild ride for the staff at Party Down!

At this point, fans of the the Starz original series are unsure if there will be a third season (although I’m hoping that changes soon), so this could very well be a series finale.

Be sure to tune in to Starz tonight at 10 pm.

Party Down Finally Makes it to DVD!

Without a doubt, Party Down is one of my favourite comedy series of all time. I’ll even go as far to say that it’s ruined a lot of other comedies for me because most pale in comparison to its wit brilliance. The adventures of the Party Down Catering team are always hysterical and often naughty … this ensemble cast and roster of guest stars always find themselves in the most outrageous situations!

After waiting nearly a year, it’s making its DVD debut tomorrow, April 6th! In addition to all 10 Season 1 episodes, the 2-disc set boasts fun bonus features, including gag reel, outtakes and a behind the scenes look.

If you haven’t seen Party Down yet, what are you waiting for? After all, you only have a few weeks to catch up before its April 23rd return on Starz Network.

It’s Friday – Time to Party Down!

Since its debut earlier this spring, Starz comedy series Party Down has won me over. I’d even go as far as saying this is, hands down, one of my favourite comedies EVER!

For those who have never seen or heard of Party Down (something that you must remedy immediately), it’s about a group of creative types – actors, screenwriters, comedians – that pay the bills by working for Los Angeles catering company Party Down, under the leadership of recovering addict/budding entrepreneur Ron Donald (portrayed by Ken Marino, best known to Veronica Mars fans as PI Vinnie Van Lowe).

With a talented ensemble cast that includes Lizzy Caplan, Martin Starr, Jane Lynch, Ryan Hansen and Adam Scott, this show easily rivals greats like 30 Rock, right down to the revolving door of brilliant guest stars, which have included JK Simmons, Steven Weber, Molly Parker and even Marilu Henner!

Tonight is the season finale, and Kristen Bell – yes, Veronica Mars herself – guest stars! Here’s a clip:

The Season Finale airs tonight at 10:30 pm on Starz.
