George Clooney is the executive producer of TNTs new pilot Delta Blues, a show about an unusual Memphis cop who happens to be an Elvis impersonator and lives at home with his mother. Jason Lee, who had the leading role in 'My Name is Earl' but you probably will know him from 'Alvin and the Chipmunks' better, will be main character Dwight Hendricks. Alfre Woodard was chosen to star on the new show, but I'm unclear on who her character is.
Now, I have some concerns. TNT is well know for producing quality drama television series: Saving Grace, The Closer, & Leverage (just to name a few) but this new show Delta Blues doesn't seem to fit in the 'drama' category. Jason Lee is the leading man for crying out loud, that has comedy written all over it! TNT hasn't let me down yet and hopefully they won't start now!
