Adding to the recently announced DOOMSDAY, being co-produced with Howard
Stern, and TIL THE FAT LADY SINGS, being co-produced with Norman Lear, Film
Roman has announced two more prime-time TV shows that it will be taking to
the marketplace this season. THE CABBISONS takes a hard look at today's
society through the eyes of a 1970's sitcom family who are typically
American--except for living in a cab. The Cabbisons travel through the
world in their cab, picking up fictional characters and celebrity fares
along the way. Film Roman joins forces with creators Jimmy Kimmel (WIN BEN
STEIN'S MONEY) and Adam Carolla (radio's LOVE LINES), whose THE MAN SHOW is
about to debut on Comedy Central. THE CABBISONS' first incarnation was on
the Kevin & Bean radio show on KROQ-FM in Los Angeles. DUMONT'S DOUBLEWIDE
is an animated half-hour comedy series about a Midwest family living in a
trailer park populated by eccentrics. The Dumonts muddle through with small
town wisdom, talk show solutions and loving family dysfunctionalism. Film
Roman is currently producing THE SIMPSONS and KING OF THE HILL for 20th
Century Fox Television, THE DOWNTOWNERS for Warner Bros. Network, and is in
post-production on JOHNNY TSUNAMI, a live-action movie for The Disney
Channel currently scheduled to air in July.
