Fox announced on Friday that ‘Brothers‘ starring Michael Strahan will be picked up for 13 episodes by the network. The show will reportedly air Fridays in the Fall.
Fox on Friday picked up comedy “Brothers” to series with a 13 episode-order.
The pilot about the relationship between a retired NFL player (retired ball player Michael Strahan) and his wheelchair-bound brother (Darryl “Chill” Mitchell) was one of the last ones picked up by Fox. CCH Pounder also stars in the low-key comedy that received strong feedback during Fox’s pilot screenings last week.
You learn something new everyday. I assumed ‘Brothers’ chronicled the relationship between Strahan and Jay Glazer. Instead Michael stretches to play a retired football player.. And Carl Weathers plays his dad!! Fox is hoping this is one of the shows that carries the network through the fall. Good luck with that.
