Ellen Barkin

It’s a wonder Showtime’s Happyish (previously Trending Down) made it through a first season at all, following the death of Philip Seymour Hoffman and subsequent retooling with Steve Coogan in the lead, but now that persistence seems to have worn off. Showtime has officially canceled Happyish, and we’re only sort of sad-ish about it.

Blumhouse Pictures, the same production company that brought us micro-budget hits like 'Insidious' and 'The Purge,' is revving up for a new horror thriller 'Visions' and is looking to bulk it up with 'The Big Bang Theory' star Jim Parsons, Isla Fisher of 'The Great Gatsby' and Ellen Barkin of 'The New Normal.'
