9 Networks… 13 Shows… 17 Actors… Tis’ TV Time!
SPRING/FALL
ABC Fam looks for a series in a country singer’s family life, Adult Swim set to deliver more Dynamite… Black Dynamite, Bravo enters the scripted game with Face Down, Cinemax returns to scripted as well with a show pitched as “Last Tango in Paris” meets “Red Shoe Diaries”, Showtime loads up with two hot new series orders, Two TV heavyweights sign new deals, and Jake Kasdan signs on to helm a new TV pilot. Lastly, this entire post is very David Duchovny-nian… can you tell why?
BBC takes a step back in time for a new period drama, Comedy Central lines up an action/comedy with David Gordon Green & Danny McBride, HBO makes it official with Tea Leoni, and another once-upon-a-cancelled Fox animation thrives again.
Fox gets two second chances; SyFy is readying to take to the seas with Sinbad; HBO eyes fashion with Tea Leoni; ABC orders more of a rookie, an up-and-comer, and a veteran, and while they’re at it, look to bring back a little someone green to the mix!
