Reggie Watts finds humor in everyday absurdity RACHEL HERGETT for the Chronicle

B

ecoming an author has never been one of Reggie Watts life goals.

“I don’t read books,” the musician, comedian, former “Late Late Show with James Cordon” bandleader and all around cool dude said over the phone this month. “I haven’t read a book since 1998.” And yet his first hardcover hit the shelves this week. “Great Falls, MT: Fast Times, Post-Punk Weirdos and a Tale of Coming Home Again” was released on Oct. 17 by Tiny Reparations Books, a division of Penguin Random House. Watts refers to the book, a memoir of growing up in Montana and beyond, as a “mem.” “I ‘mem-ed’ it up a couple years ago when my management was like ‘you should write a book,’” Watts said. He wasn’t immediately excited by the prospect, but eventually gave into the idea of telling his own story. “It’s easiest to write about oneself,” he said.

Reggie Watts’ “Great Falls, MT: Fast Times, Post-Punk Weirdos and a Tale of Coming Home Again” was released on Oct. 17 by Tiny Reparations Books, a division of Penguin Random House.

The self-professed weirdo was “existing” when he answered the phone to talk about “Great Falls, MT” and his upcoming Bozeman show. Watts will perform his unique blend of improvised musical comedy at the Elm in Bozeman on Monday, Oct. 23. While the idea of telling the truth (or not) in comedy has been in the spotlight recently with revelations that stories from Hasan Minhaj’s comedy specials had some element of fabrication, Watts doesn’t try to change the plot of his life for an audience. “I think I’m telling the truth when I’m telling stories about my childhood,” Watts said. “I’m sure there are embellishments that I’m unaware of, but I’m not purposely trying to make mine more exciting.” Stories from the “mem” are corroborated by longtime RACHEL HERGETT, FOR THE CHRONICLE friends, and Watts is sure they Reggie Watts performs at the Elm in happened much as his memory recalls. Bozeman on Dec. 21, 2022.

RACHEL HERGETT, FOR THE CHRONICLE

Reggie Watts performs at the Elm in Bozeman on Dec. 21, 2022. He will return to the Elm on Monday, Oct. 23, fresh off the publication of memoir “Great Falls, MT: Fast Times, Post-Punk Weirdos and a Tale of Coming Home Again.”

“Generally the truth is far more fantastic than what you make up,” he said. On stage, Watts is hard to pin down, flowing from observation to a musical reaction and back again. “If there’s something in the air or something hits me right before I go on stage, someone says something, then I’ll use that in the moment,” Watts said. Because of the improvisational nature, even Watts doesn’t know where the show may end up, where the mood will take him. “I want to have a great time and I want to tap into something that starts to resonate,” Watts said. “I’m up there and I say things or I’m doing something and it starts to build on itself. I just go in the direction

that it seems to want to go.” Sometimes a story, like those he tells in “Great Falls, MT,” sneaks in. “If it’s a longer show and I’m feeling a little bit more historical, then I’ll definitely go there,” he said. Mainly though, Watts relies on the “power of absurdity” and the vastness of his own imagination. “Everything is so infinite,” he said. “The way that you can look in it — you can always find a new angle on something. That’s the thing that fuels my entire show, is being able to have the flexibility to see things in multiple ways so I can find things that resonate with over half of the people.” More WATTS I D14

“Master Gardener” (Oct. 26)

“American Horror Stories: Huluween” (Oct. 26)

American Horror Stories, a spin-off of Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s award-winning FX anthology series “American Horror Story,” is an anthology series featuring a different horror story each episode. The series now returns with four new episodes full of dark and twisted tales for “Huluween.”

Narvel Roth (Joel Edgerton) is the estate gardener of the beautiful Gracewood Gardens, owned by dowager Mrs. Haverhill (Sigourney Weaver). The two have a discreet romantic understanding while the meticulous Narvel works endlessly to cultivate a constructed paradise. Asked to apprentice Haverhill’s orphaned grand-niece, Maya (Quintessa Swindell), the pair’s frosty introduction blossoms into a passionate affair. Ashamed of his gang-affiliated past, Narvel reluctantly shares his secrets with Maya, triggering a series of events that threatens to expose the secrets of the prestigious gardener.

Checking in with

ELIZABETH BANKS

“Shoresy” - Season 2 (Oct. 27)

This Canadian comedy series follows the foul-mouthed, chirp-serving, mother-loving, “Letterkenny” fan favorite character, Shoresy (Jared Keeso), and the Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs of the Northern Ontario Senior Hockey Organization (The NOSHO), as they continue their quest to never lose again. (ORIGINAL)

Anyone who was surprised at first that Elizabeth Banks became a game show host must be even more stunned that she has stayed with it for so long. Following the recent box office success she had as the director of the movie “Cocaine Bear,” the actress is continuing to preside over the ABC revival of “Press Your Luck,” which recently began its fifth season on Tuesdays. The program has been a summer staple in recent years, but having new episodes available came in handy for the network, which delayed the series’ return to have it as fresh content during a fall television season that has been impacted significantly by entertainment industry strikes. Banks still puts forth high energy — and an enjoyable dose of sass — as she guides three players through each week’s hourlong game. They take spins on a giant board listing prizes and cash awards, trying to avoid hitting a so-called “Whammy” when they choose to stop; if they do land on one, they lose the winnings they’ve accrued up to that point. The contestant who wins the initial round gets to proceed to a session that makes even bigger rewards available. Banks’s involvement in “Press Your Luck,” of which she’s also an executive producer, is indicative of the variety she has said she wants to maintain in her work. She has long spoken about creating opportunities for herself, and she’s surely destined to get more of those in the directing realm, given that “Cocaine Bear” became part of the national conversation during its release and grossed nearly three times its budget at the box office. She also will voice Pebbles in “Bedrock,” a projected, animated Fox series (which she’ll also executive-produce) that will offer an adult take on “The Flintstones” – so it seems one can bank on the notion that TV won’t be losing Banks soon.

“Susie Searches” (Oct. 27)

In this comedic mystery drama, an awkward college student seizes the opportunity to bolster her popularity and her under-the-radar true-crime podcast by solving the disappearance of a classmate. Kiersey Clemons, Alex Wolff and Jim Gaffigan star.

Birthdate: Feb. 10, 1974 Birthplace: Pittsfield, Mass. Current residence: Los Angeles Marital status: Married, has two sons Other television credits include: “Mrs. America,” “The Boys,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “Wet Hot American Summer, Ten Years Later,” “Stand Up 2 Cancer,” “Saturday Night Live,” “The Muppets,” “Moonbeam City” (voice only), “Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp,” “Phineas and Ferb” (voice only), “Robot Chicken” (voice only), “Family Guy” (voice only), “30 Rock,” “Modern Family,” “Comanche Moon,” “American Dad!” (voice only), “Scrubs,” “Without a Trace,” “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” “Sex and the City,” “Third Watch,” “All My Children” Movie credits include: “Cocaine Bear” (as director and producer), “The Beanie Bubble,” “Call Jane,” “Charlie’s Angels” (also director and screenwriter), “Brightburn,” “The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part,” “The Lego Movie,” “The Happytime Murders,” “Pitch Perfect 3” (also a producer), “Pitch Perfect 2” (also a producer), “Pitch Perfect” (also a producer), “Power Rangers,” “The Hunger Games — Mockingjay: Part 1” (and “Part 2”), “Magic Mike XXL,” “Love & Mercy,” “Every Secret Thing,” “ Walk of Shame,” “Little Accidents,” “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,” “People Like Us,” “What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” “The Hunger Games,” “Man on a Ledge,” “Our Idiot Brother,” “The Next Three Days,” “The Uninvited,” “Zack and Miri Make a Porno,” “W,” “Definitely, Maybe,” “Fred Claus,” “Spider-Man 3,” “Spider-Man 2,” “Spider-Man,” “Invincible,” “Slither,” “The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” “Seabiscuit,” “Catch Me If You Can,” “Swept Away,” “Wet Hot American Summer,” “Shaft”

‘Godzilla’ roars again in a high-tech, big-budget update Bryan Cranston, David Strathairn and Godzilla ... all notable performers with many screen credits. Put them together, though, and you’re likely to get reaffirmation that size does matter. That’s just the way the 2014 version of “Godzilla” plays out, as TNT shows it Sunday, Oct. 22 (followed immediately by the clearly cut-from-the-same-cloth “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” and “Godzilla vs. Kong,” making that quite a roaring day). It takes a while for the title creature to show up, but once he does, Bryan Cranston no one else in the film can hold a candle to him. That is, except in “Godzilla” the other monsters he has to fight, and their presence positions him as more a hero than a villain (not unlike many of the classic Japanese “Godzilla” movies). Two other fearsome beings also bring Godzilla onto the scene. They’re known as MUTOs – even their name suggests they won’t be a lot of fun, at least for those physically threatened by them – and their life source is anything radioactive, causing alarm for the nuclear engineer played by Cranston. They’re about to give birth to many little MUTOs, and if that happens, goodbye, Earth. The problem is how mankind can destroy them without destroying itself in the process. Enter Godzilla, and that’s where the movie really kicks into high gear, with the special-effects maestros taking over ... and letting the battling behemoths pretty much level San Francisco as their fight rages on. It’s inevitable that’s how this “Godzilla” story will wind up, and director Gareth Edwards delivers the goods on that count. What’s disappointing is how many good actors are left on the sidelines in service of letting the monsters take center stage. Not only are there Cranston and Strathairn, but also Elizabeth Olsen, Juliette Binoche (yes, that is correct, Juliette Binoche was in a “Godzilla” movie), Sally Hawkins and Ken Watanabe. They all do enough to justify their paychecks, but it’s actually co-star Aaron Taylor-Johnson who gets the most sustained opportunity to show his stuff.

Bruce Willis OF MOONLIGHTING ON ABC Q: Did Bruce Willlis ever do another series after “Moonlighting”? A: Not in terms of being a regular cast member, but he did have another significant TV role afterward … and it’s on display often, given how frequently the series in question is still shown. He guest-starred on “Friends” for three episodes in 2000 as Paul, the disapproving father of Ross’s (David Schwimmer) considerably younger girlfriend Elizabeth (Alexandra Holden), and the two men eventually came to a meeting of the minds thanks to certain information Ross had about Paul (which the latter man didn’t want revealed). Willis earned a Primetime Emmy Award for the portrayal, marking the second one he won, his first having come for his work as wisecracking sleuth David Addison on “Moonlighting.” He also did guest shots on such shows as “Ally McBeal” and “Mad About You,” but movies had the bulk of his creative attention after he scored an enormous hit with the original “Die Hard” in 1988. That being said, the actor also hosted “Saturday Night Live” a couple of times, and he was the good-natured target of a “Comedy Central Roast” in 2018, with his ex-wife Demi Moore and “Moonlighting” leading lady Cybill Shepherd among those who took humorous shots at him. As is traditional for such events, though, Willis got to even the score with his own remarks at the end of that show. Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who played Willis’ younger self in the 2012 movie “Looper,” was the host of the “Roast.”

“Shazam! Fury Of The Gods” (Oct. 23)

“Hot Potato: The Story of the Wiggles” (Oct. 24)

Charlton Heston’s “Soylent Green” offers food for thought

BY JAY BOBBIN

One of the best movies of Charlton Heston’s later career, the 1973 sci-fi drama “Soylent Green” leads off the final night of Turner Classic Movies’ Star of the Month tribute to the actor Wednesday, Oct. 25. Since it’s set in 2022, some viewers may get a rueful chuckle out of its portrait of a densely polluted, overpopulated New York … but there’s also something quite moving about its rumination of the world the way it used to be. Heston plays a policeman whose investigation of a tycoon’s (Joseph Cotten) murder exposes him to the good life the slain man lived. That encompasses such then-novelties as fresh beef and strawberries, some of which the cop spirits away to share with his friend and assistant – or “book,” in the parlance of this tale. That role marks the final performance of Edward G. Robinson, who’s thoroughly moving and simply wonderful here. Leigh Taylor-Young, Chuck Connors and Brock Peters are among other familiar faces on hand.

Putting on a spectacular performance, the North Carolina native is in the midst of his best season yet. Coming off a breakout year in 2022, Byron won twice, including five top-five finishes, 11 top 10s and one pole, improving his overall ranking and finishing sixth place on the year — a career best. Steadily improving, this season Byron has six wins on the year (as of Oct. 2) with four of those victories coming on a pass for the lead in the final six laps of the race — including breaking double digits by reaching career win No. 10. Adding to an already impressive year, Hendrick Motorsport reached its 300th victory, marking a major team milestone and becoming the first organization to achieve this feat. Going into Miami, Byron will be aiming to make his first Championship Four appearance, a milestone that will surely etch him and the iconic No. 24 car into the history books. The NASCAR Cup Series playoffs continue this Sunday, Oct. 22, live on NBC at Homestead-Miami Speedway as William Byron continues to defy the odds, proving he is a force to be reckoned with.
