"Hulu is an exciting possibility," Robert Mills, EVP, Unscripted and Alternative Entertainment, Walt Disney Television, said. "You can certainly experiment with all sorts of different long form Bachelor programming. You're not hamstrung by running time or even standards. It's definitely exciting.

DEEDS (HBO Max, New!) - Kristin Davis is attached to star in a proposed single-camera comedy at the streamer about "a desperate realtor (Davis) who embarks on an increasingly dark path when she's forced to team up with a drug-addicted, sociopathic, young couple who soon discover that in the world of high-end, LA real estate, when it comes to immorality and cutthroat behavior, they're outmatched." Michael Davidoff is penning the project with Dave Fleming and Calamity Jane's Ellen Pompeo and Laura Holstein executive producing alongside Davis and Davidoff. (Deadline.com)

(Deadline.com)

NEIGHBORHOOD, THE (CBS) - Creator Jim Reynolds has announced his exit from the series after three seasons. "I am very proud of The Neighborhood and have given everything of myself over the last three years to make this the best show possible," he said in a statement. "I am so happy that the show has found such an enthusiastic audience and that it will live on. At this moment, in light of everything going on in the world, I had concluded that I am not the right person to continue to tell these stories. I am excited to see the show thrive and wish everyone involved the very best." (Deadline.com)
