Administrator Toups Posted May 12, 2014 Administrator Share Posted May 12, 2014 The Last Man On Earth: Discussion Thread THE LAST MAN ON EARTH – From writer/producer Will Forte (“Nebraska,” “Saturday Night Live”) and directors/producers Chris Miller and Phil Lord (“The Lego Movie,” ”21 Jump Street”), THE LAST MAN ON EARTH is a new single-camera comedy about the life and adventures of the last man on earth. The year is 2022, and after an unlikely event, only one man is left on earth: PHIL MILLER (Forte), who used to be just an average guy who loved his family and hated his job at the bank. Now, in his RV, Phil searches the country for other survivors. He has traveled to every city, every town and every outpost in the United States, Mexico and Canada, and has found no one, which leads him to the painful realization that he is almost certainly the last living being on the face of the earth. Sure, there are some positives that come with being the last person on earth. You can go live in the White House if you want. You can park in handicapped spots without an ounce of guilt. You can decorate your home with priceless works of art. You wanna wear a pair of tighty-whiteys and nothing else every single day of the year? Not a problem. THE LAST MAN ON EARTH is a comedy about a man trying to make lemonade out of the most soul-crushing lemon there is. But if anyone can do it, Phil Miller can. He’s not about to give up now. He is sad and so, so very lonely. But he’ll get through this. Because there’s a small kernel of hope that somewhere out there is another survivor. And maybe one day, they’ll run into each other. That would be a good day. And if that survivor happened to be a woman? Well, then that would be a great day. THE LAST MAN ON EARTH is produced by 20th Century Fox Television. The series is created and written by Will Forte. The pilot will be directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller. The series will be executive-produced by Forte, Lord, Miller and Seth Cohen.

Members wingwalker Posted May 13, 2014 Members Share Posted May 13, 2014 http://youtu.be/K_xNvdptsXY WTF? This is going to get canceled. How is this even a show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 13, 2014 Author Administrator Share Posted May 13, 2014 I don't think they shot the pilot yet since it says "the pilot will be directed"? Also, there's no other cast involved yet. This is probably just a teaser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 13, 2014 Members Share Posted May 13, 2014 I'm with wingwalker. Unless he were to stumble into a colony made up exclusively of women -- and he'd have to, or else he isn't the "Last Man on Earth" -- then I can't see how this will sustain itself as a sitcom. Right now, it's coming across more like a really long (and really boring) SNL sketch than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
