'Community' Cast Transformed Into Puppets in Upcoming Episode

The cast of 'Community' as puppets in the episode 'Intro to Felt Surrogacy'.

The idea of acting out trauma with puppets has turned into an entire episode of Community, which will feature the core cast members in puppet form as the study group works through the aftermath of an awkward outing in the woods.

The cast and producers brought the puppets out on stage last night at the Paley Fest television festival in L.A., according to The Hollywood Reporter. The puppet episode will also feature a previously announced guest appearance by Seinfeld alumnus Jason Alexander, who plays a friendly mountain man. The episode, "Intro to Felt Surrogacy," will air in April.

The Feud Between Chevy Chase and 'Community'

The producers and cast also addressed the possibility of extending the show to a fifth season. Star Joel McHale, who plays Jeff, said that a renewal is the kind of news "no one ever lets you know . . . in advance." Yvette Nicole Brown, who plays Shirley, said there's plenty to be proud of even if Community doesn't get a fifth season. "The show has made it four years, and that's  great thing," she said.

The rest of the current season will also introduce Jeff's father (James Brolin), explain the origins of the study group and feature an episode written by Jim Rash, who plays Dean Pelton and also won an Oscar for screenwriting for The Descendants.

When he's not cooking meth as Walter White on Breaking Bad, Bryan Cranston likes directing sitcoms: the menacing star of AMC's hit show steps behind the camera to direct an epsiode of The Office this season, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Cranston will direct an episode called "Work Bus" that's scheduled to air October 18th. He's previously taken the reins on installments of Modern Family and Malcolm in the Middle (on which he played the father), as well as Breaking Bad.

Office co-star Rainn Wilson let word slip on Twitter yesterday when he posted a photo of himself posing with Cranston and wrote, "Free meth for 'The Office!' (look who's directing)." Cranston has won three Emmys for his work on Breaking Bad and is currently nominated for Best Actor in a Drama.

The Office returns September 20th on NBC.

HBO Cuts 'Game of Thrones' Episode With Bush's Head

HBO has cut the Game of Thrones episode featuring an image of George W. Bush's severed head from all digital platforms and is holding off shipments of the Season 1 DVD box set that revealed the decapitated cranium, reports Deadline.com.

"We were deeply dismayed to see this and find it unacceptable, disrespectful and in very bad taste," said HBO. "We made this clear to the executive producers of the series who apologized immediately for this careless mistake. We condemn it in the strongest possible terms and have halted all future shipments of the DVDs, removed it from our digital platforms and will edit the scene for all future airings on any distribution domestic or international."

Earlier this week, DVD commentary from show creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss exposed the beheading prop. Though it had already existed in plain view, the DVD commentary brought the prop to greater attention. In the commentary the creators claimed, "It's not a choice, it’s not a political statement. We just had to use whatever heads we had lying around."
