EXCLUSIVE: Boy-centric Disney XD has picked up to series Crash and Bernstein, a live-action comedy with puppetry. The multicamera show, created by Eric Friedman (Disney XD’s I’m In The Band), centers on 14-year-old Wyatt Bernstein, the only son among four kids, who finally gets his dream of having a loud-mouthed brother when his puppet, Crash, comes to life. Crash, played by Emmy-nominated puppet master and filmmaker Tim Lagasse (Sesame Street) brings Wyatt some much needed “boy reinforcement” amidst a household of sisters. The series, produced by It’s A Laugh Productions, Inc., will begin production in May for a fall premiere. “It offers a fresh take on the typical buddy comedy and brings together an everyday kid and his ‘know no limits’ puppet as they navigate life’s adventures,” said Adam Bonnett, SVP, original programming for Disney Channel. The pilot for Crash and Bernstein was directed by Bruce Leddy (Mad TV).

XD doesn’t come in a jar; XD comes from who you are…
Disney Channel FTW!
Congratulations, Eric Friedman!! This is well-deserved. Bravo*
Adam is funny. Does he write the shows, too?
Rooting for Fritz to be picked for Wyatt. He IS Wyatt. He would add such fun to this show and this show would be an amazing opportunity for Fritz to experience Disney XD. He got to tour the set of “Zeke and Luther” Very cool. “Crash and Bernstein” looks like lots of fun. I do not want to bore you, and FRITZ would not bore you! He is wicked-funny!
