Girls Producer writing her own show
Former Everwood producer and current Gilmore Girls producer Rina Mimoun is working on a pilot of her own. If you were an Everwood fan, you’ll remember that Mimoun worked tirelessly on that show, running it and writing for it. And for you diehard WB fans, Rina worked on Jack and Jill (still miss that one) and Dawson’s Creek. She’s also done terrific work this season on GG, and wrote the episode “Lorelai’s First Cotillion.” So needless to say, I’ll be tuning in for her new show! Here’s the story:
TV pilot to be filmed in Charleston
CHARLESTON — Charleston will be the backdrop for the pilot episode for a television series about a big city attorney who returns to the Lowcountry to join her family’s law practice.
Officials with the South Carolina Film Commission say Charleston beat out Savannah, Ga., for the project being produced by Warner Bros. Television.
Crews are expected to begin filming in March and if the series, tentatively titled “Family Juleps,” is picked up, it would air on ABC.
State film commissioner Jeff Monks says a series could be a significant boon in terms of jobs, tax revenue and exposure for the Lowcountry.
According to the Internet Movie Database (imdb.com), writer and executive producer Rina Mimoun of “Gilmore Girls” and “Everwood” fame is producing and writing a series about a successful attorney who leaves her law firm in the city to move back home in the Deep South. Actress Mary Steenburgen is listed as one of the stars of the show.
