who has time for broadcast network television
It sounds like a total rejection of the pilot they created.Lol, well for a sec I was gonna say fuck this...then I read that they're just changing showrunners.
Dammit rats. It was a good show. 😭

And it had Ian McShane!
Here is 1500 words on it from Daniel Feinberg, The 10th Anniversary of NBC's 'Kings' and the Death of the Ambitious Broadcast Drama.
The question is whether it was simply because the results were looking too bad so far, or whether they were good enough but it was just too controversial of a pilot.
Weird, I read that thread title as "Y: The Last Man Cancelled." The re-read the beginning and saw it was "Cast Unveiled"...then finished reading it and saw it was cancelled -_-
So totally confusing to read. I really enjoyed the comics so hope it gets a solid adaptation it deserves.
It's going to be a garbage adaptation like Preacher, so delay it forever.
Opinions and all, but I really like preacher.It's going to be a garbage adaptation like Preacher, so delay it forever.
No problem - Slayven just took care of the thread title and I updated the OP.Can someone please fix the thread title? The update is completely wrong.
Thanks, I almost had a heart attack reading it, I'm really looking forward to the series.No problem - Slayven just took care of the thread title and I updated the OP.
Best single season show ever? Best single season show ever.
Still hoping for the day that I find a genie lamp so I can resurrect Rubicon in all its glory.
FX has given a status update of its adaptation of DC Comics' Y: The Last Man by Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra.
John Landgraf, Chairman of FX Networks and FX Productions, said that the project was in pre-production. "We've seen five, six scripts. We haven't schedule it because it hasn't gone into production. We changed showrunners and did a big reboot on it. But that seems to be going well."
This comes after Eliza Clark replaced Aida Mashaka Croal and Michael Green as showrunner last year. The pair served as writers/EPs/showrunners on the pilot but exited over creative differences in April, two months after the pilot had been picked up to series.
The Diane Lane-fronted series traverses a post-apocalyptic world in which a cataclysmic event has decimated every male save for one lone human. The new world order of women will explore gender, race, class and survival. Barry Keoghan, Imogen Poots, Lashana Lynch, Juliana Canfield, Marin Ireland and Amber Tamblyn also star.
Clark, Jacobson and Brad Simpson of Color Force (Pose) and Vaughan executive produce. Melina Matsoukas (Insecure) directed the pilot episode and also serves as executive producer. Nellie Reed serves as Producer. FX Productions produces.
Wait, "Diane Lane-fronted"? Sounds like York's mom is going to play a much, much bigger role than the comic. Do they have anyone cast for Doctor Allison Mann yet?
Yeah agreed 100%. Just let it goSeems like the right move, but it'll be shocking if the show survives this much upheaval during development. Not impossible, but seems unlikely now.
The IP is cursed, I been hearing about a Y live action version since the early 00sthis is shaping up to be quite the clusterfuck
Barry Keoghan was a great choice for Yorick
There have been so many set backs and stalls on this production at some point you have to wonder whether this show will ever see the light of day.
I'm surprised that no one has started a conspiracy theory that Disney brass don't want to make this series because the publishing rights to the original graphic novels belongs to DC and not Marvel.
In the age of the truly baffling Snyder Cut 'movement' it seems an easy sell.
