Brooke Shields, David Spade Expected to Star in Fox's 'Almost Paradise' Sitcom

News summary

Fox is developing a multi-camera sitcom titled 'Almost Paradise,' starring Brooke Shields and David Spade, which offers a humorous take on a married couple stranded on a deserted island. The project, written by Danny Zuker of 'Modern Family,' draws inspiration from both 'The Blue Lagoon' and 'Gilligan’s Island,' showcasing the couple's comedic survival challenges. The idea originated from a meeting between Shields and producer Aaron Kaplan, who later recruited Spade due to their previous collaboration on 'Just Shoot Me!' While no official contracts are in place, both actors have participated actively in development discussions. Fox has ordered two scripts for the series, marking a potential shift back to multi-camera comedies after focusing on single-camera formats in recent years. If approved, Shields and Spade are expected to portray characters sharing their names, adding a layer of meta-humor to the show.
