about us / dan bucatinsky / lisa kudrow / don roos

Is or Isn't Entertainment is a television, film and new media development company started in 2003 by Lisa Kudrow and Dan Bucatinsky, and later joined by Don Roos in 2007. The company has developed several films, television pilots and series, but is best known for their critically acclaimed, award-winning HBO series, The Comeback.

The company partnered with the U.K.'s Wall to Wall Media in 2009, to bring the hit BBC docu-series Who Do You Think You Are? to U.S. audiences on NBC. The show, which follows celebrities as they embark on journeys to discover their ancestry, has been renewed for a third season premiering in early 2012, and recently featured Gwyneth Paltrow, Vanessa Williams, Lionel Richie, Tim McGraw, Kim Cattrall, Steve Buscemi, Rosie O'Donnell, and Ashley Judd in season two.

 

 

In 2008, Is or Isn't launched the web-series Web Therapy, starring Kudrow as Internet therapist "Fiona Wallice," and has featured such guest stars as Courteney Cox, Jane Lynch, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Victor Garber, Selma Blair and Meryl Streep. The series was honored with 2009 and 2011 Webby Awards for Best Comedic Performance, 2010 and 2011 Webby Awards for Best Online Comedy, and three Webby Award nominations in 2010 including Best Writing.

In an unprecedented move, Showtime Networks licensed ten half-hour versions of Web Therapy, and the show premieres July 19th @ 11p.
