In the onslaught of series pickups and passes over the past couple of days, it is hard to keep track of the pilots that have not been picked up to series, which are dead and which are still alive. It is still early to tell about CBS, which is not done yet picking up new series (pilots Backstrom and Friends With better Lives are among a number who are still in contention). Additionally, CBS is shopping Beverly Hills Cop, which got a pass from CBS). Here is a rundown of what pilots are still in contention (not for fall) at the other nets:
ABC: Comedy Bad Management is still alive, ABC is looking for a way to make it. Dramedy Murder In Manhattan and comedy Pulling are dead at ABC but are being shopped by producer ABC Studios to cable networks.
NBC: Drama I Am Victor starring John Stamos and comedy Assistance starring Krysten Ritter are alive and will likely be retooled. Also still in contention is the Craig Robinson/Greg Daniels comedy pilot. Another comedy pilot, Brenda Forever, may undergo reshoots.
Fox: Comedy To My Future Assistant is alive and there is talk about switching it from single-camera to multi-camera. Nothing at the CW.

What about Super Clyde? Any news?
ReplyDeleteMost CBS pilots are still alive since CBS is planning to pick up a couple more shows, although it doesn't look great for Super Clyde
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for Super Clyde.
ReplyDeleteThe only pilot I want to see picked up from this list is I Am Victor. I hope NBC make it a midseason show.
ReplyDeleteI've not seen a final decision on Surgeon General I don't think, did I miss it?
ReplyDeleteTruth be told I don't want to watch the series... I hope it is not picked up so Jason Isaacs is available for Game of Thrones casting in a few weeks! XD
There is no news about its fate, so far.
ReplyDeleteOk thanks!
ReplyDeleteIF it is picked up I may check it out for Isaacs anyway, but the premise does not draw me in honestly....
Wait and see I guess...
I was wondering about the Craig Robinson pilot when I woke up (LOL, I had dreams about the Upfronts last night. Oops)
ReplyDeleteLOL I had a dream FOX picked up Boomerang XD
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic actor Jason Isaacs is i don't care what hes in,just that he is!
ReplyDeleteI had upfront dreams last night, too. I dreamed I came to Spoiler TV and that there was a story about USA picking up Happy Endings, which was great, and then that ABC picked up Gothica, but then that they canceled Modern Family (which I love) which was just strange and not believable at all. ha
ReplyDeletesame...
ReplyDeleteHe would be an AMAZING addition to GoT. Any role, he'd OWN it....
