Him & Us

Summary:
Network: ABC
Release: Fall 2006
This comedy follows the life and entourage of a larger-than-life rock star named "Max Flash" and his entourage of staff/friends. Freddie, Max's agent has been his protector and manager for over 25 years.

Cast and Crew:
Ashley Williams, Kim Cattrall, Michael Trucco, and Anthony Head star. You remember Williams from "Good Morning Miami" and most recently as Victoria on "How I Met Your Mother". Everyone knows Kim Cattrall from "Sex and the City". Trucco is from "Battlestar Gallactica" and Head was Giles on "Buffy".

Elton John (yes "the" Elton John), Charles Shyer, and Michael Edelstein. Elton John is the mind behind this show. He has adapted his life for television. Shyer was the director on "Alfie" with Jude Law, and Edelstein was EP on "Desperate Housewives". There are also some producers from "Sex and the City" working on the pilot as well.

Our Take:
This is one heck of a cast and production team. There has been considerable buzz due to Elton John's name being attached to this project. Ashley Williams is cute as a button and is a good actress to boot, and Head is very solid as well. Kim Cattrall is wonderful and Trucco was good on BSG. We don't see one thing wrong with this show on paper, and considering the buzz around the industry we think we might have a hit in "Him and Us".
