Savage says of his Fox show What Just Happened??! with Fred Savage, premiering Sunday: "Not a lot of people get to say this, and I know how rare this is, but we are really shooting the show that we pitched, which is an after-show about a show that doesn't exist, that I host. The first minute or two minutes of our show is the final scene from that week's The Flare. It always ends in some moment of suspense or terror or excitement, and so the scene ends, and it minimizes in the corner of the screen, and then it goes right into our show. It's spinning on a lot of different elements: A little bit from the aftershow world, and a little bit from the late-night world, a lot of elements from early Letterman and Conan, where they'd go out and do remote pieces out in the field. We're squeezing a lot of show into 22 minutes." ALSO: Savage wants fake sci-fi show The Flare to become a real show.
