Blunt Talk Teaser Trailer Starring Patrick Stewart

Although Starz has yet to build up the same stable of original programming as HBO, Showtime or Netflix, they have had a few interesting shows thus far including Party Down, Spartacus, Boss and Black Sails. Now they are adding another half-hour comedy to their line-up this year called Blunt Talk, which is created by Jonathan Ames (Bored to Death) and executive produced by Seth MacFarlane. The show stars Patrick Stewart as a drug-addled British newscaster who moves to L.A. to host a talk show. It looks to combine elements of Californication and The Newsroom, focusing on a pretty loathsome main character with potentially hilarious results. Blunt Talk premieres sometime this summer; check out the first trailer after the jump and let us know what you think.

    I hate it whenever something that looks like it might be good is coming to Starz, as it means it most likely won’t get more than one or two seasons before it’s prematurely canceled.
