SIX DEGREES: Tivo Alert – “Gym Teacher” on tonight at 8p EST/ 7p CST

Gym Teacher

Our friend Caitlin over at PaulDinello.net wanted me to remind everyone that the Nickolodeon movie “Gym Teacher”, co-starring Amy Sedaris and directed by Paul Dinello, is premiering tonight at 8p EST/ 7p CST.

So don’t forget to watch!


EDITED TO ADD: I’m totally horning in on DB’s post here, but I just have to profess big love for this photo. It’s the one CC Insider used for its Gym Teacher story, and it’s delicious. – Ms I

    It sounds like Paul Dinello might even have a cameo in this:

    TV Guide: How was working with the very funny Amy Sedaris, who plays the lustful principal?

    Meloni: Have you ever seen the Mona Lisa? It’s a work of art. I am president of the Amy Sedaris fan club. I’m also a member of the fan club of Paul Denillo [sic], who directed the movie and played the woodshop teacher. They were Strangers with Candy people, so I knew they would have a unique comic sensibility.

      The woodshop teacher instead of the art teacher? Darn. Lol.

      Still I’m looking forward to watching this.

        I missed the firs half of this movie. I recognized them right away when I saw them. But maybe even though he isn’t the art teacher, he might be gay. Has the principal had a history of alcohol and drug abuse? I missed this, but it will be rerun tomorrow at 8pm.

          Haha Paul was actually in it quite a bit more than I thought, for a “cameo”. They didn’t say anything about the principal’s past, but she was hilarious.

          I really enjoyed the whole movie, because it had a very SWC-movie feel to it, due to the fact that Paul directed it. And there were some very SWC style jokes in it. I was rather surprised at how “adult” some of them could have been taken.

      I had the movie on, but I wasn’t paying attention to it at all.
      But then, I heard a raspy, Jellineck-esque voice, and I turned my head and there he was! Paul Dinello! So I screamed, did a happy dance, and went back to my homework.

    That’s Amy on the right side of the picture there? If so, I barely recognize her, and think she looks like Cheri Oteri from SNL.

    Thanks for the reminder though! I haven’t watched Nickelodeon in ages.

    ^it’s not like Amy would want to look normal!

    I forgot about this, just like I forgot to watch Conan last night (but I’ll look for that later.)

    I might miss the beginning of this unless people around me actually stay on their set timetables…nevertheless yay! I’ll get to find out which channel Nickelodeon is! I hopes it’s awesome!

    It’s upsetting, campus cable doesn’t include Nick.

    Hahaha… it looks like Amy is wearing her Jerri Blank fat suit.

    Hopefully I can find this online somewhere (we don’t get Nick here…).

    is anyone watching this?!
    Amy Sedaris is just so awesome!
    I really just love her expressions…some of the are Jerri Blank-ish, but I really like her take on being a crazy authority figure.

        I loved the SWC references too! I’m not gonna lie, I definitely squeed a few times, and my sister looked at me like I was a basket case. Lol.
