CANNES,
"Doing a series with The Movie Network and Movie Central is the best it gets in this country," said series creator Ken Finkleman. "No commercials and a small staff dedicated to the originality and quality of their shows who trust the creators rather than the stock market-like movement of the numbers."
"Movie Central is proud to bring Ken Finkleman's new series, Good Dog, to pay television," said
"The Movie Network is thrilled to have greenlit Good Dog," said
Meet George. He's so "high concept" he's got his own TV show. About him. And his life. Well, a version of his life. And what a life it is...he's totally neurotic and dating a gorgeous woman half his age, and the sex is amazing. It's a very hot May-December relationship. Did we mention she has two young children who live with them? That's high concept. Except it's not. Hot. And neither is his friend Doug, a "yes man" who bears the brunt of George's neuroses. Speaking of, George wants to call his show "Embrace Your Enthusiasm." As long as he can clear it with that
Good Dog is Executive Produced by Shaftesbury's
