Administrator Toups Posted May 12, 2012 Author Administrator Share Posted May 12, 2012 “Next Caller” — What happens when a foulmouthed satellite radio DJ – played by the multi-platinum selling artist and outrageously charming Dane Cook (“My Best Friend’s Girl”) – is forced to share the mic with a chipper NPR feminist? It’s anyone’s call in this sharp new comedy from producer Stephen Falk (“Weeds”) and Emmy-winning director Marc Buckland (“Grimm,” “My Name Is Earl”). It’s her first day in New York City, and 26-year-old Stella Hoobler (Collette Wolfe, “Young Adult”) is ready to take on the world. After a stint on public radio, she’s been hired to co-host the no-holds-barred show “Booty Calls with Cam Dunne.” Smart, spunky and passionate, Stella is determined to elevate the show beyond its boy’s-club-locker-room humor into a respected debate about men, women and the state of human relationships. But there’s a problem: Cam! She’s going to find out the hard way that he’s got no intention of sharing the spotlight, especially with someone like her. It’s going to be a tense fight, but with the station’s one rule being “make some noise,” Cam and Stella could be a winning combination – as long as they don’t knock each other out on their way to success. Jeffrey Tambor (“Arrested Development”), Joy Osmanski (“True Jackson, VP”) and Wolé Parks (“Premium Rush”) also star. The series is created and executive-produced by Stephen Falk (“Weeds”) and directed by Emmy Award-winning director Marc Buckland (“Grimm,” “My Name Is Earl”), who also serves as executive producer on the pilot. “Next Caller” is produced by Lionsgate Television and Universal Television.

Members wingwalker Posted May 13, 2012 Members Share Posted May 13, 2012 This one, on one hand as potential to be good. It has a big name star (Dane Cook) and has a theme similar to Friaser (both being set in a radio station), which appeals to me, but I feel it should have been multi-cam instead.

Members wingwalker Posted October 13, 2012 Members Share Posted October 13, 2012 NBC has canceled the show before it even aired. After filming 4 episodes of the show NBC didn't like the direction it was headed in. http://www.deadline.com/2012/10/next-caller-cancelled-nbc-series/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
