With Game of Thrones ending with it’s 8th season next year, HBO has announced that a group of writers has been pulled together to work on any idea that may have potential. The writing crew has several movies under their belt so it will be interesting to see what they come up with.
As interesting as this is, it can be surpassed by Jeff Goldblum and Danny DeVito starring together in a new TV comedy. The comedy has no working title and the plot is lackluster with these two having been a music duo but broke up. Fast forward to the present and they have to reunite due to circumstances. Yes, they are idiots and the supporting cast will play into this.
