Cyrus Family Animated Comedy In The Works With NBC

Tish Cyrus aka the manager for Miley Cyrus and founder of HopeTown Entertainment has signed a first-look deal with NBC Universal to develop an untitled animated series.

The Untitled Animation project, which HopeTown will produce alongside Shadow Machine and Bill Schultz, is created by Sivert Glarum & Michael Jamin (King of The Hill), the project was loosely inspired by the misadventures of the Cyrus family and has been described as a modern re-imagining of The Beverly Hillbillies. Tyler Hilton and Jaco Caraco will write original music for the series.

Our Take

Ok, but the only thing I’ll add here is that Michael Jamin has an excellent Instagram handle (@michaeljaminwriter) where he answers questions questions on show business from inspiring writers. I don’t know if this specific project of his comes to fruition, but if it does, I hope it doesn’t star Miley Cyrus. I’ve listened to her voice a lot over the years, and nowadays it sounds like she’s smoked every cigarette every produced.
