#brainy bunch

As always, please note this is a draft and not a transcript of what they actually ended up shooting. There will have been changes made during filming and editing, including improv made on set which, let’s be real, there most definitely was a lot of.

With Good Session not making it to air, the next pilot season brought along a project called "Brainy Bunch", or as it was originally aptly titled: "Untitled Molyneux Comedy Pilot". The series was based on the true story of, and book by, Kip and Mona Lisa Harding. James got the lead role of Kip, a Special Forces agent who got shot in the butt and thus forced to retire to instead become a stay-at-home dad to his pack of extraordinarily intelligent children. The original family has 7 of them, but at some point during production it seems they cut it down to just 5 children. The pilot later got renamed to Nerd Herd but still couldn't get enough traction at the network to actually make it to air. As part of the deal James got a blind script commitment, i.e. a future pilot he will write or direct. There is a good chance this deal is still on despite Nerd Herd never making it to series, but we will have to wait and see.
