files/pictures/picture-35.jpgUPN may be backing out of its plans to produce DOOMSDAY, a new animated series produced by talk radio host Howard Stern. The show would have chronicled the Bradley family who travel in a motor-home across a post-apocalyptic United States in search of a new home and traditional family values. UPN head Dean Valentine told the NEW YORK DAILY NEWS that the first drafts of the show were "decent, but it wasn't great and if you do this kind of show, a show about the aftermath of nuclear war, it has got to be great. I'd like it to work, but you can't put it on if it's not great." New writers may be brought in to revamp the series. North Hollywood-based Film Roman created the series and sold it to UPN.
