Amazon pilots

Hey Jos,

Amazon heeft 10 pilots online gezet. Met de bedoeling dat geïnteresseerde zenders de series in productie nemen. Zombieland was ook een pilot van Amazon. Alpha House, Betas, Tumbleaf, Annebots, Creative Galaxy, Dark Minions, Onion News Network, Supanatural, Those Who Can't, Positively Ozitively, Sara Solves It en Teeny Tiny Dogs waren de pilots van vorig jaar, waarvan Alpha House en Betas daadwerkelijk in productie zijn genomen. De nieuwe pilots van Amazon zijn:

Drama en comedypilots

The After: Chris Carter’s return to supernatural thrillers is an apocalyptic tale concerning eight strangers “thrown together by mysterious forces and who must help each other survive in a violent world that defies explanation.” (Said explanation may or may not be “aliens.”)

Bosch: Titus Welliver stars in the adaptation of Michael Connelly’s detective series, playing the titular character as he investigates the killing of a 13-year-old boy, while also standing trial in federal court on charges of killing a suspect in a different investigation. It comes from The Wire’s Eric Overmyer, so add an extra layer of corruption and heartbreak to all that.

Mozart In The Jungle: A comedy-drama written and produced by the Coppola-Wes Anderson nexus of Roman Coppola and his cousin Jason Schwartzman, directed by About A Boy’s Paul Weitz, and starring Malcolm McDowell, Bernadette Peters, Saffron Burrows, and Gael Garcia Bernal. While plot details seem superfluous, considering, Mozart concerns the behind-the-scenes goings-on of a symphony orchestra, and early reviews say it’s bizarre and amazing.

The Rebels: Justified and The Following star Natalie Zea escapes to yet another TV show by getting into what sounds like an update of HBO’s 1st & Ten, playing a widow who inherits her husband’s professional football team—even though she doesn’t really know anything about football and is a woman!, etc. etc., shenanigans and misunderstandings, etc. Ice Cube co-produced with former Giants player/Live With Kelly And Michael co-host Michael Strahan, The Break-Up writer Jeremy Garelick handled the screenplay, and Billy Dee Williams got an acting job, at least.

Transparent: A dark comedy from Six Feet Under writer Jill Soloway, this show concerns another L.A. family whose members each have their own deep, emotional issues. If that’s not reason enough to check it out, the parents are played by Jeffrey Tambor and Judith Light. Welcome back, Judith Light! Who’s the boss? Existential angst, that’s who.

Kids pilots.

Gortimer Gibbon's Life on Normal Street: Life is anything but normal for Gortimer & his two best friends as they navigate Normal Street.

The Jo B. And G. Raff Show: Jo B. and G. Raff are hosts of their own TV show. Each day, when it's about to start G. Raff goes missing.

Hardboiled Eggheads: Miles and Kelvin are regular kids and classified special agents correcting the mistakes of science.

Maker Schack Agency: No invention is out of reach for makers Wolfie, Merle and Jo as they create gadgets to help other kids.

Wishenpoof: Bianca is just like any girl...well, kind of. She has "wish magic" – the power to make wishes come true.

The after gezien, aardig spannend!
