3322 According to Variety, Crescendo, the production company Cheadle launched with former managers Kay Liberman and Lenore Zerman, has sealed a first-look TV deal at NBC.

Seriously – a TV series based on the life and times of Miles Davis? How is that not appointment television? A mini-series might not be too terrible either.

In truth, I don’t think the deal means Cheadle is going to start acting on TV (although he was awesome in a guest spot on “ER” and has appeared on a bunch of series in the past), but at least it’s nice to know someone with his talent will be developing projects for the little screen.

    Are you serious! NO, no, no, no, no, no, no, NO, NO, NO, NO, no, no, no, no, no, no, NO, NO, NO, NO, no, no, no, no, no, no, NO, NO, NO, NO, no, no, no, no, no, no, NO, NO, NO!

    I don’t watch TV! I watch it in the morning a little and that’s pretty much it! I also read a little interview with Alice Coltrane and realized what a great, great movie John Coltrane would make. I also think Conan O Brian, Jay Leno, David Letterman, and Jimmy Fallon should have jazz guests on their show more often. Enough with this 10 doors down and other bubble gum rock, britney spears entertainers.
