Brightmoor crew sells puppet pilot to TBS

 

You may remember a while back when you told you guys of Sean Combs executive producing a series from Chris Powell called Brightmoor which was described as being almost a South Park that takes place in inner city Detroit. Welp, Chris is back with another sold pilot ALSO taking place in Detroit, this one is for TBS and it’s called The Big D.

The show is being co-produced with King of the Hill’s Chip Hall, and it ‘s a buddy/puppet comedy. Deadline.com broke the story and this is what they had to say about it:

Set in inner-city Detroit, The D follows 25-year-old CP and his best friend Reggie Bo — who is essentially an inner-city version of Elmo — as CP fights to earn the respect of his legendary gangster father while at the same time surviving in America’s most dangerous city.

The series has been ordered for presentation by TBS, and I think this series would be an excellent companion piece for American Dad! which right now is the only show I really watch on the network. The D could change that for me.
