  • Eugene Levy accepted the Newport Beach Film Festival's Lifetime Achievement Award and though he couldn't give his acceptance speech in person due to Covid-19, that didn't stop a few of his close friends from surprising him with a tribute video. Along with his "Schitt's Creek" co-stars and children, his friends Steve Martin, Martin Short, Jennifer Coolidge also shared in the celebration.

      Yep, that and when Steve Martin riffs about how honored he is that he doesn't even have to be there. "To be able to tribute you, and not really have to do much, or go anywhere, just stay home, is such a thrill." PRICELESS!

THAT's what makes him a great man, the rest is just "glitter" :)

    Well done Mr. Levy, this award is so deserved!
    "I wouldn't rule that out" - I've seen a few interviews with Dan, too, and it seems he's gradually softened to the idea that there might be more Schitt's Creek to come. He started out saying it was absolutely over and the story was done, but then every time I saw a new interview he seemed to get a little more into the idea or writing more. I'm certain they must have come up with some great ideas since then, especially after the little online special they all did in character.

    So funny in everything he does. Huge fan since Earl Camembert on SCTV. Congrats to him.
    (Also how great was it to see Chris Elliott with the big Letterman beard!)

    Jason Biggs' bit intercut with the "Happy Birthdays" was absolutely genius

    So fantastic - and seeing John Candy over his shoulder is a perfect addition to this video.
