The Robinsons May 17 2005 Update:
Kevin Burns writes:
"The Robinsons: Lost in Space" will not be seen on the WB this fall. The
inability to sign a top-flight show runner before the "up-fronts" in NYC
next week will keep the show on the shelf, at least for the present.
The WB is still very keen on the series and will work with Fox and
Synthesis to find and hire a qualified writer/producer in time for
mid-season.
As far as Jon and I are concerned, we'd rather do the show right -- or not
at all. The WB's decision to wait until we find the right creative partner
is a smart one.
Regards,
Kevin
April 10, 2005 Update:
There was a preliminary screening of the LIS pilot in LA last night. This
is done to get a sense of what the test audience thinks before the final
production airs on TV. Kevin Burns reports that some tweaking of the
pilot still needs to be done, but the response to what was shown was
generally favorable, and the audience liked what they saw. May is quickly
approaching, so the final version must be completed very soon.
