'Eternally Yours': A Tale of Immortal Love and Family Drama
In a thrilling twist, CBS is brewing up a unique blend of comedy and the supernatural with its new pilot, 'Eternally Yours'. This eternal love story, penned by the dynamic duo of Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, promises to be a hilarious and heartwarming adventure.
But here's where it gets controversial...
The show centers around two vampires, Liz and Charles, who have been married for an astonishing five centuries! That's right, five hundred years of eternal love and marital bliss (or so we think). Their world is turned upside down when their daughter, Emma, starts dating a human named Max.
Emma, played by the talented Helen J. Shen, is a bright veterinarian with a cynical edge. Having witnessed her parents' rocky marriage, she's become a bit of a commitment-phobe, always expecting the worst.
Enter Parker Young as Jesse, a lovable goofball who has found a unique way to navigate the challenges of eternal life. As part of Charles and Liz's vampire coven, Jesse has a clever trick up his sleeve: he only marries humans! His philosophy? "Have fun for a while, then you get a new model" when they pass away. However, with people living longer, Jesse finds himself in a unique predicament - his wife could now pass for his mother!
Young, who previously starred in the CBS comedy 'The United States of Al', brings his charm and comedic timing to this new role.
The pilot is executive produced by a stellar team, including Port, Wiseman, Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum, and Jason Wang. With filming set to begin soon, we can expect to see this immortal family drama unfold before our very eyes.
And this is the part most people miss...
Helen J. Shen, a Broadway sensation, is currently starring in the award-winning musical 'Maybe Happy Ending', which has garnered her numerous accolades, including the Clive Barnes Award for Theatre and nominations for the Grammy, Drama Desk, and Drama League awards.
So, will this vampire comedy be a hit? Only time will tell. But one thing's for sure: with its unique premise and talented cast, 'Eternally Yours' is sure to spark some interesting conversations.
