A “Schitt’s Creek” Coffee Table Book Is Coming from Dan and Eugene Levy
If there’s still a “Schitt’s Creek”-sized hole in your heart after the beloved series came to an end last year, series creators and stars Eugene and Dan Levy (who played Johnny and David, respectively) have a collectible item in the works that every Rose family superfan needs in their home. The famous father-son duo is teaming up on “Best Wishes, Warmest Regards: The Story of Schitt’s Creek,” an upcoming coffee table book that will be released in October but can be preordered now.
The book will feature character profiles for each member of the Rose family, played by the Levys and Catherine O’Hara as the family’s matriarch, Moira, and Annie Murphy as Alexis, Entertainment Weekly reports. It will also “highlight major moments” from all six seasons of the iconic series, from Moira’s endorsement of Herb Ertlinger Winery, the first kiss shared between Patrick (Noah Reid) and his future husband David, Moira’s local production of Cabaret, and the Rose family Christmas episode.
It will, of course, pay tribute to some of the signature Rose family staples, from Moira’s wigs to David’s black-and-white sweaters, along with behind-the-scenes moments and memories from the cast, a deep dive into Moira’s eccentric vocabulary and vocal affect, and more info about Alexis’s many wild encounters with Hollywood A-listers.
In a statement to EW, Running Press and Black Dog & Leventhal publisher Kristin Kiser shared, “We are thrilled at Black Dog & Leventhal to be part of the phenomenon that is Schitt’s Creek,” adding, “What a treat for acquiring BDL publishing director Becky Koh and the rest of the team to get an up-close-and-personal peek into Dan and Eugene Levy’s singular creative vision. ‘Best Wishes, Warmest Regards’ will feature all the heart and humor, sweaters and wigs, and magnificent bon mots that have made ‘Schitt’s Creek’ such a beloved and award-winning show.”
Available for preorder now through retailers like Bookshop, Indiebound, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Hudson Booksellers, Books-A-Million, and more, the official release date will be October 26, 2021. Until then, you can always stream your favorite episodes again and again on Netflix and hold out hope that a rumored movie or reunion will somehow become a reality.
