Poor Richard's Almanack was the development-title of an unaired American drama television series-pilot by Jim Danger-Grey.[1] The show was probably set to air in the 2016-2017 TV schedule on USA Network,[2] but on April 29, 2016, the network passed it on in addition to three other USA Network-pilots, Paradise Pictures,[3] The Wilding[4] and Brooklyn Animal Control, with the latter being redeveloped.[5] Shootings for the pilot episode were made in Toronto, Canada in October, 2015.[6] The series was set to be shopped elsewhere by the studio, but even as of November 2017, this was not the case.[7]
Plot[edit]
The thriller-drama is set around the lives of people who become the new “Founding Fathers” of America after the country is suffering a total collapse from terrorist attacks. The pilot episode shows two separate arcs, a modern-day and a possible future arc, set 15 years later, where some of the protagonists have changed radically.
