'MISSING' IN ACTION AT CBS

Network orders procedural reality pilot
By James Hibberd
Jan 26, 2009, 12:00 AM ET

CBS might be extending its crime brand into the reality genre.

The network has ordered a pilot presentation of a procedural reality show called "Missing You," in which a team of investigators takes on a different missing-persons case each week.

One of the show's executive producers is '70s teen sensation Shaun Cassidy, who has since gone on to produce such scripted TV fare as ABC's 2005 series "Invasion" and the CBS cult fave "American Gothic."

If the project is picked up, "Missing" will provide a reality counterpoint to the network's scripted crime fare including "CSI" and "The Mentalist."

CBS has toyed with a similar idea before, teaming with Mark Burnett in 2004 to develop "Recovery," a show about the search for kidnapped children.

With CBS' dramas and comedies performing well, and reality competition veterans such as "Survivor" and "Big Brother" continuing to be strong on the unscripted side, the network has been trying to figure out what's next for the reality genre at the network.

Cassidy and "Girls Next Door" producer Ned Nalle are creators and executive producers, along with exec producer James Bruce and Raquel Prods.

Review Highlights of a Biography about Shaun: Here are my first impressions. I saw it and had to set my alarm at 3:45 AM to turn on my VCR, watched it and went back to bed when it was over. I didn't notice what Parker said, because I kept thinking how good he looks. I agree that their success was the combination of those two and only those two.

Pamela Sue Martin mentioned she had seen Parker the day before I met her at the Burbank collector's show in October and that he looks good. Now I wish I had been brave and asked if she took a photo that I could have. :)

It was interesting to hear how Shaun's music got better as it progressed, but it was unfortunate that the sales had to go down. I know about the Longfellow band, but was interested in hearing more about the other one that Patrick mentioned called Jam, which is short for jam, jelly and preserves. Then how his last (and less popular) album Wasp brought Shaun back to his Sunset Strip roots.

I thought it was funny how David Jolliffe said the band faked an encore, so Shaun could get out. It was fun seeing the turning points of Shaun's career from singer to actor to writer to producer. I enjoyed the last part more. Loved the last shot of him in front of his studio door with his children.

I liked how his brother David called him twisted in a good way and wickedly funny. It was fun to hear when David said Shaun spent a lot of time writing in his room when they did Blood Brothers. Ryan mentioned the craziness of Shaun's teen idol days and how hard it was go anywhere during that time. I liked hearing Shirley say that she hopes Shaun can fit her in as a grandmother somewhere.

I thought another memorable moment was when David Eick (I think it was him) said if you want to see Shaun act, you have to ask him to do a pitch, because he has it all and does all the characters. It's funny how Shaun thinks his tombstone will say 'surprisingly good'.

It was a nice retrospective summary for the time limit of less than an hour without commercials. I think Shaun needs more time, a narrator like Bill Mumy would be an added bonus, plus a recent interview with Shaun would be nice.

"Ruby and the Rockits" is a half-hour, multi-camera comedy starring Alexa Vega ("Spy Kids") as Ruby, the teenage daughter of David Callahan (David Cassidy) and niece of Patrick Callahan (Patrick Cassidy), brothers and former teen idols in the band The Rockits. Since David continues to tour and pursue a life in music, he turns to Patrick to help raise Ruby, who joins the Callahan clan consisting of Patrick, his wife and two sons. "Ruby" was written by former teen idol Shaun Cassidy (Patrick's brother and David's half-brother) and Ed Yeager. Austin Butler of "Zoey 101" co-stars. (zap2it.com)

A disclaimer: The scene lines indicated below in caps have nothing to do with the show. These lines were added as I wrote down things I remembered. Also the following events may not appear in the sequence that they happened, so it's going to be like the filming, done in pieces. This is only one fan's perspective and hopefully there will be more.

LOCATION - COZMOOM WEST IN THE NORTH

SCENE - SUNDAY NIGHT

About 70% of the seats were blocked out for the production staff, friends and family members, but I thought we would still get to be closer than about 5th row. Because I saw a few unmarked seats in various rows that were closer, but the usher had her own ideas. Maybe there was a hidden seating chart or something. It was a small studio and about 180-200 people in the audience, so all seats were good. I think there were 3 or 4 rows behind us.

I thought it was fun when they played That's Rock & Roll before Shaun gave his little thank you speech at the end. The audience was standing and dancing, especially our section. After a few lines Shaun said he just now realized what the song was. Then quickly added he would not be singing it. I think he was in production mode.

SCENE - SUNDAY NIGHT, CONTINUED

Another memorable moment was when Shaun was discussing a scene with Alexa, who was sitting on the piano in Patrick's living room area. I think it was a piano. There were three beautiful sets designed by Ryan. L to R, living room, kitchen and nightclub. We were sitting in front of the nightclub, so it was a stretch to see over on the other side. It looked like Shaun was giving Alexa his interpretation of how he wanted her to react in the scene.

Here's another memorable moment. I thought it was fun to see the youngest kid eating cereal on the breakfast table. It looked like he was hungry, because they weren't filming but he kept eating. It reminded me of Mikey from Life cereal.

SCENE - TUESDAY MORNING

The emcee/host guy kept us entertained between shoots. He was funny and looked like the guy I usually see at the car rental place. He kept telling stories, but most were left unfinished when the bell rang that signaled the start of filming. I loved his promises like 8 people would get to go to the backstage party and 2 people would be on the set in the background somewhere. He told us some great stories, too, but half of them were left unfinished, like cliffhangers, when it was time for the filming to begin again. The MC guy kept mentioning pizza, too, which did actually arrive and the boxes slid down each row following the napkins. I took a slice of the pizza, which looked like cheese flavored. It wasn't really warm anymore (since it had arrived according to the emcee 2 or 3 short breaks back), but it was still good. I got the second to the last slice, but there was about three people left. So another box came to finish the row. I wanted water, though. Luckily small half-pint-sized Arrowhead water bottles came next. Those went all the way to the end of the row first and worked backwards until the row was finished. It was very well organized.

On the next break the emcee guy mentioned giving out chocolate. Three bags soon started cruising down the aisles. It took a little while, because everyone was told to hold the wrapper noise during the filming. Once or twice during the filming they said some candy noise was being picked up, so the soundstage must be very sensitive. Also some cell phones that were left on vibrate or silent also had to be actually turned off. (It must have been the production/family/relatives portion, because the fans all had to go through the security screening. LOL!) Then if you're in the middle of unwrapping a candy piece, the emcee guy jokingly said the solution would be to put it all in your mouth. I ended up with a miniature Mr. Goodbar, Hershey's dark chocolate (my favorite one) and a peanut butter cup. I was going to save them in my bag for later, but when the rest of my water was getting warmer, I thought I'd better eat the chocolate during the breaks in case it melted. It felt warm in the room with cooler periods when the lights went down, which felt nice. Since I wore a long-sleeved pink blouse, I did not need a light jacket, which got stuffed in my smaller bag that I brought with me just for the show, since the rules said no large bags and wanted to be safe.

It was fun to see the family and friends gather before the show over on the left and middle sections. With everyone hugging each other, it looked like a family reunion. Shirley made a grand entrance with applause. She started from our side and walked along the front to the other side. She looked wonderful, gorgeous and beautiful, as she always does.

It was fun to see Dave Jolliffe there, too, but it was hard to get his attention since he was on the other side. He played with the Jenerators and has attended several of the Bill Mumy gigs I've seen. (I usually wave hello to him and smile, but didn't think he would notice at this show.) It looked like he was helping a little with seating or getting things for some of the friends. Dave has lost a lot of weight since the Jenerators have played and he looks very good, so he might be working out with Shaun. (Just my opinion.)

SCENE - TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MISCELLANEOUS

The emcee guy interacted with the audience and several members came up to the front and introduced themselves and one guy danced. The prizes given out included a Cold Stone Creamery gift certificate, LA t-shirts for first-time visitors to the area, t-shirts from The Rockits, and an $800 iPod that turned out to be an overly inflated iShuffle. The emcee guy would be a real good salesperson. LOL! He must be related to the promoter guy who sold out America's Roseville concert and kept promising phantom meet and greets, which I will never forget, but I will say he was a good promoter. This emcee guy was good, too.

Questions were asked from the audience like will David and Patrick be singing on the show. The answer was yes, but was left unclear whether or not they would perform something that night. It turned out they did a little song and dance later, but it looked like lip-synching.

I wanted to ask if Shaun would be making an appearance. I didn't ask, because I think I knew the answer would be no. Although when I saw him with the microphone saying his thanks to everyone, it made me hope for a different answer.

SCENE - WEDNESDAY, STAGE VIEWS

I love the first scene that was filmed. Alexa as Ruby wanders into the nightclub area and seems to almost bump into the microphone stand in the middle of the room. She picks it up and starts singing a song, which she just wrote, while thinking no one is around. Then David enters, preoccupied with his business, he thinks Ruby is just a fan, until she tells him who she is and now he wants some fizzy in his water. LOL! It was repeated about three times and each time that line cracked me up. I didn't make notes during the filming, so I'm hesitant to use any quotes, because I don't want to mess anything up.

Another scene happened in Patrick's living room. It was funny watching him do some dance moves while thinking no one is watching him. It was a little hard to see since it happened on the far side, but it appeared he was watching a video. The monitors overhead usually were focused on the actors, but this time it showed a video of a guy singing the same line. That video showed up a lot and it was funny, because it was the same thing each time. Then at the end it changed a little, which made it funnier.

SCENE - WEDNESDAY PM, AN EXTRA NOTE

It was publicly announced during the taping that Ryan Cassidy was responsible for the set design and Melissa Cassidy did the choreography.

SCENE - THURSDAY

There's another scene that stands out when Alexa as Ruby makes her arrival in Patrick's living room. She starts talking and is very excited about how big the place is. She keeps talking for a little bit and at the end she says she's talking too much. I thought that was funny, but when the scene was redone, that line was left out or I missed it.

It was also fun to see David exit the living room and end up in the kitchen. It looked interesting, because it looked like he was still part of the scene, because I had a clear view of the thin wall between the two rooms. Even though the cameras are on rollers, it's hard to have them continue to the next room without a little break. David probably wanted to hide the cupcakes that Patrick's character was known for. Just my opinion again.

David had some great lines that cracked me up and mentioned a funny name that sounded like an Indian casino - something like Otchi-potchi-etc-whatever and I don't remember exactly. He also had to explain how he used to go out with Patrick's wife first (LOL!) and it took a few tries to get it to come out right, but it was still funny each time he tried. David mentioned calling Danny Bonaduce once, which was funny, too.

There were four cameras used, A, B, C and X, so it makes it nice to get different closeups in the same shot. The monitors above the stage were nice and already had white rectangles drawn to show the area of the actual TV screen image. The emcee guy preferred that everyone looked at the stage whenever possible, because it would give better response for the show.

Some of the scenes were pre-filmed, so we watched those on the monitors. I was also watching Shaun to see what he was doing, which was also fun.

One interesting scene was when the nightclub area was getting setup with extras as the scene in the living room was being finished. Some of the nightclub people were told to hold up their glasses. I thought that sounded fun since the people sitting there would either get an up glass or a down glass. I wondered if the up glass would be considered an upgrade for an extra on the set. I remember one man in the back row of the audience was called and asked to fill an empty seat in the front row. I thought it was an interesting moment of live casting on the spot. They wanted to make sure all the cracks were filled in that were behind the extras on the stage area. It's like forget whom you're sitting with, just come and sit here.

It was great to see David and Patrick do a synchronized dance act and especially watching Patrick's expressions. It's hard to describe, but it reminded me of a couple of siamese cats and they were very good. I love Patrick's expressions and sometimes he looks so serious that it made me smile several times as I watched. I don't recall the song, but it looked lip synched even with a small band on the stage. It was a lot of fun to see.

SCENE - THURSDAY, LATER, AUDIENCE VIEW

At the end of the show we wandered down near the front of the seats right above the stage area where Shaun was standing most of the time, near the front or left of the center section. I heard the one of the ushers say they had to do one more scene and wanted the audience to leave. I didn't believe her, because I think either her name was Daisy or she was related to the usher at America's Vacaville concert that made me stop filming. (She told me earlier to go back to my seat when I tried moving ahead one row before the show started. It was where I sat down first, which was behind one of those moving cameras.) It looked like people were moving to the left to see if there was an exit or a way out on the left side (or most likely a way to get down to the floor), but there wasn't. I thought maybe we would get an informal program, page, flyer, post card, shot glass, cupcake wrapper or something from the show, so I didn't bring anything to sign, except my Sharpie pen. When I pulled it out, I think the cap of my lip liner flew down to the stage floor. I looked for it in my bag later, but I don't have the cap anymore. Maybe that was a reason I could have gone down to the stage, but it's too late now. I guess I donated it to the set and maybe Ruby can find it later. LOL! It didn't look like anything else would be happening except a few of the other cast members, crew or extras had pictures taken by their friends or families, so we left through the door where we entered.

As we left we saw Shirley leave with her small group and go the opposite way. We waved and someone said she looked beautiful. She smiled and said thanks. It's funny that we were led by one of the pages to Studio 10, but there was no one around to escort us back to the parking garage. Luckily there were lights and it was easy to find. It also wasn't raining anymore, so that was good.

Now we wait for the editing to be completed, a release date, and a photo of all the brothers including a full-length view of Shaun.

'Ruby and the Rockits' is a half-hour family comedy about two brothers, aging rock musician David Callahan and married-with-children Patrick Callahan (played by '70s teen idol David Cassidy and his real-life brother Patrick) who once topped the charts as '80s pop stars The Rockits but now barely speak to each other. It takes the arrival of David's long-lost daughter, fifteen-year-old Ruby ('Spy Kids' star Alexa Vega) to make both men rethink the importance of family.

From the Hollywood Reporter Pilot Log, 2008-2009 on Fox:
TITLE: Inseparable
STUDIO: ABC Television Studios
TEAM: Shaun Cassidy (w)
SYNOPSIS: A modern-day Jekyll and Hyde tale about a partially paralyzed
forensic psychiatrist (Toby Stephens) with a split personality
whose alter ego is a charismatic criminal.
CAST: Toby Stephens

Inseparable by Shaun Cassidy - One to watch
October 13th, 2008 - Written by Angela

Inseparable is a new show by Shaun Cassidy. It's got quite the cast thus far and will be released via ABC. Inseparable follows the story of a partially paralyzed forensic psychiatrist with a split personality disorder. Integral to the story will be a love story also as the story will allegedly have the wheelchair bound psychiatrist trying to woo the same woman / man (since it's still unclear if Helfer plays the psychiatrist) with each distinct personality.

If that hasn't spurred your interest, it's going to star a certain cylon Number 6. Yes Tricia Helfer has joined the cast, along with Malik Yoba, Chelah Horsdal and Aisha Hinds (pictured). Hinds previously worked with Cassidy on the rather cool - yet canned - series 'Invasion'.

There's no release info for 'Inseparable' at the moment and it seems only the pilot has been cemented, still it sounds like one to keep on the radar.

Editor's Note: Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica) is a No Show at the Vulkon conference in Orlando due to the filming in Montreal.

Lloyd Owen and Shaun Cassidy are Inseparable
by Cynthia on June 20th, 2008

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Viva Laughlin star Lloyd Owen will handle lead actor duties on the Fox pilot Inseparable.

The show comes from the marvelously twisted mind of Shaun Cassidy and is one of two Jekyll and Hyde series in development right now. This one features a partially paralyzed forensic psychiatrist whose alter ego is a charismatic criminal.

NBC is working on My Own Worst Enemy which has Christian Slater who is both a suburban dad and a super spy.

Of the two, I find Cassidy's plot much more insidious and intriguing which is what a good Jekyll story ought to be.

Helfer Turns Shrink for Cassidy
by Cynthia on June 25th, 2008

Our news is all so intertwined this week! Today, The Hollywood Reporter announced that Battlestar's Tricia Helfer has been cast to play a shrink in the new series Inseparable. It was only a few days ago that we reported Lloyd Owen's casting in the same series, which was created by Shaun Cassidy uncle to the recently canned Katie Cassidy from Supernatural.
