New “Nash Bridges” Is In The Works
I’m not sure this bodes well for the USA Network as my mom will be so excited by this announcement. After all, not many advertisers are wanting to appeal to 76-year-olds. Yet, here we go:
Variety confirms that a revival of “Nash Bridges” starring Don Johnson (pictured above) is in the works at the cable network.
The original series ran for six seasons on CBS, and it was my mom’s favorite-closely followed by “Walker, Texas Ranger.”.
The new show will be co-created by Johnson and as of right now, he is the only original cast member attached to the project.
“Nash Bridges” centered on Johnson’s character, who eventually rose to become the leader of the San Francisco Police Department’s Special Investigations Unit. The series also starred Cheech Marin, Peggy Sandow, James Gammon, Jodi Lyn O’Keefe, Jeff Perry, and Jaime P. Gomez.
In the past few years we’ve revived “Hawaii Five O” and “MacGuyver.” Does anyone in Hollywood have an original idea anymore?
