New David Cross and Bob Odenkirk Project in the Works
posted by RichmanVA
It looks like David Cross and Bob Odenkirk may be returning to HBO with a new series entitled David’s Situation. David Cross recently talked to MTV about the project which is still in the pilot stage. Here’s what he had to say:
“Bob and I are going to shoot something for HBO, a pilot, which was something we wrote. It’s based on Bob’s idea, but we both co-wrote it and I’ll act in it.”
“It’s a sitcom. It will follow a traditional sitcom feeling, but will also feel like a big sketch, even though the characters will remain the same each week. Hopefully, we’ll shoot it this April.”
“I’m playing me. I’ve left Hollywood, I’ve had it with Hollywood. I now write for in-flight magazines, and I’ve moved to a gated community in an unknown suburb; you don’t know where it is or what part of the country. I have two roommates - one is extreme right wing, a cranky conservative pro-America guy. The other is this left wing, hippie, liberal-activist guy. And I’m right in the middle.”
“They are both ridiculous, and crazy stuff happens, but in the reality of this world it’s not that crazy.”
Mr. Show and Arrested Development are two of my favorite shows, so I would be super stoked if this got picked up and we all get another weekly dose of David Cross in our lives.
