I’ve been waiting for something new from these two pros. I’m a big fan of good movies and good tv, and with the Kopelsons involved, I know I’ll be watching something really good!
Thanks Bonnie your parents must be pleased you can barely read and write. Those three idiots will ruin what seems like a good idea.
Anybody remember “Profit” on Fox starring Adrian Pasdar? Hopefully they can take this type of show and put it on Cable and it will flourish. Looking forward!
Ay yi yi…
Worked for these two years ago. There’s a reason you haven’t heard from them since 99′ and it’s because of loglines like this.
Trey is a great writer. I love the Kopelsons. Glad they have come out of retirement. It will be wonderful to see some well produced entertainment coming from them. I used to see all there movies when I was a kid. Go Anne and Arnold! Thanks for the update.
It’s just that hard to get things made…
Ha! Retirement… The money fox sinked on their deal could balance the budget. Must be tough going from plush Century City digs to sharing office space with Kinkos and Petsmart.
Whatever happened to their big budget underwater movie Riptide? Or the one with the talking animals?
