Paramount returning to TV production with 'Beverly Hills Cop'

[Iowan]

And it looks like the first project is a weekly version of 'Beverly Hills Cop' for CBS. That said, here are some questions:

1. Who would be the distributor of this new show for syndicated repeats should it prove to be successful?

2. Would CBS Television Distribution eventually lose some certain shows? Or will it be like MGM losing it's own library to Ted Turner?

Didn't they try (and fail) to turn Beverly Hills Cop into a weekly series in the 80's?

I thought it was either "Down and Out in Beverly Hills" from Fox's first year, or "Beverly Hills Buntz". Dunno.

Probably Trifecta (which distributes the Paramount feature films now on broadcast/basic cable)

I read it fast and thought it said "BEVERLY HILLBILLIES". That may have been funnier.

You might have created the next great drama/comedy: Beverly Hillbillies Cop 90210
