Oh, absolutely! If songs on the show are recorded, that's the next best thing to a solo album, for sure, plus with the added benefit of the privilege of
seeing him on our TV screens (every week!) performing songs that he wrote. It's really a great situation. It will give him a great deal of visibility, as both a songwriter and a
musician/musical artist, so I really hope the pilot/series gets picked up by the network. I'm crossing my fingers, toes, arms, you get the picture. That I still want a solo album, does not diminish my excitement for this project. I am
very excited about the possibility of it happening! It sounds like a wonderful opportunity for Darren (and such a great thing for his fans, especially those who have not been able to attend his events and miss seeing him)!

Yes, everything Lilikoiluv said! A project where we see Darren every week on our TV sets, where Darren may compose his original music, where we see and listen to Darren performing his original music, where we see Darren's acting = BLISS!

I completely agree with this! It's really nice to see that the network believes in Darren.
Lilikoiluv wrote:The fact that Lin found the listing that had the "Producer" listed (again, to you Lin) makes me think that perhaps the premise of the show might have come from and been pitched by Darren perhaps?
haha! that little purple guy is your go-to guy when it comes to your admiration of Lin's detective skills.
I've been thinking the same thing too, Lilikoiluv.

Unless he is actually one of the producers too. Then he may once again have a lot on his plate.
Yes, it remains to be seen, assuming the project gets a green light by the network, how involved Darren will be as a producer.
So does anyone know when the networks make their announcements of what pilots/series they pick up? Is it just before the Fall?
