Sharon Horgan and Clelia Mountford Sign a Two-Year Deal with Amazon Studios
Amazon Imports the United Kingdom Production Company A first-look deal has been signed between Merman and Amazon Studios. Sharon Horgan and Clelia Mountford wisely signed a two-year deal with Amazon. These two provide a unique point of view from the United Kingdom. Horgan and Mountford started the production company known as Merman three years ago. In their short history, the company has built offices Los Angles and New York City. They both provided insight with Business Wire on this recent deal: "Amazon is at the forefront of groundbreaking television and Merman is delighted to be part of their remit to
Robert Kirkman Produced The Walking Dead, and Recently Inked a Deal With Amazon Studios
Amazon Studios has nabbed up the creators to The Walking Dead for a series of new projects. The major film company has recently expanded programming with science fiction, fantasy and horror. Robert Kirkman and David Alpert are the creators of The Walking Dead, Fear the Walking Dead and Outcast. Each of these shows provide a level of artistic expression and creativity, but my point of view on violence in the mainstream is that it is all overkill. In addition to Amazon Studios bringing on Kirkman and Alpert, they also have teamed with their production team known as Skybound Entertainment. Amazon Studios and Business Wire reported: "At

Amazon Studios Gives the Greenlight to I Love Dick, Jean-Claude Van Johnson and The Tick
Amazon Studios has recently announced the reboot to The Tick, a theatrical release to to I Love Dick, and Jean-Claude Van Johnson will be coming soon to Amazon Prime Video. "These pilots were vast in scope, disruptive in tone, challenging in story and sometimes even funny," said Joe Lewis, Head of Half-Hour Series, Amazon Studios. This collection of pilots may have been apart of the most-watched pilot season with Amazon Studios, but they lack a sense of creative depth in my view. A reboot project is not my lead strategy going into a season with original content. The double edge duality of reboots
Julian Fellowes Presents Doctor Thorne by Amazon Studios
Doctor Thorne is Threaded with a Downton Abbey Style of Fabric Amazon Studios & Julian Fellowes Presents Doctor Thorne, based on a series of books by Anthony Trollope. The show stars Tom Hollander, Ian McShane and Alison Brie, will premiere exclusively for Prime members in the U.S. on May 20. The show resembles Downton Abbey in several ways. Julian Fellowes wrote Downton Abbey and Gosford Park, where he won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. The costume department reconnects with historic dresses and outfits, and the actors showcase a classical style. This show, as well as Downton Abbey creates a dialogue between characters that I find to be
Elvis & Nixon Featurette by Amazon Studios
The Most Requested Moment in Photography A picture can be worth a thousand words. In this case, a picture is worth a feature film starring Kevin Spacey and Michael Shannon. The photograph that the Elvis & Nixon took together has become the most demanded photograph from the National Archives. When I look at the black and white picture, the first thing I notice is former President Nixon's standard fake smile, and the sedated look on Elvis' face. The film does an excellent job of showing the bags under Elvis' eyes. It is clear that he was up the previous night, but when
