‘Cunt & Son’

A crotchety, vain has-been singer coasting on her glory years has her HIV-Positive son move into her palatial Malibu estate, during a global pandemic to look after her because the staff has left and her husband loathes her. The pair get into all kinds of trouble “shoplifting” in her personal basement shopping mall and argue about the son taking his AIDS cocktail & surfing Grindr for ethnic hookups.

Sounds cute.

“Barbra” in which the lead character leaves her east coast marriage and heads to Los Angeles with her grown but childish son ( players by Jason Gould) to embark on her previously abandoned desire to be a professional singer. On the way, they get stranded in a dessert city where she takes a temporary job as a waitress in a greasy soon diner. Hilarity ensues.

. In the pilot, Barbra insults the restaurant cook by stating that she’s does not eat diner food. She re energizers herself after he hard first day by finding the only apartment in town with its own shopping mall in the basement.

Barbra plays a 28 year old single mother. Everything else is negotiable.

Here is my plot: A woman in her late 30s, marries a man in his early 40s. They both bring lots of kids into the marriage. The woman doesn't work, and she has a wisecracking live-in maid. So she is bored out of her ass... and starts writing crime novels. When she is almost finished with her first novel, the mail man dies in front of her house. The circumstances are mysterious and suspicious. The woman starts investigating, and from this point on, wherever she goes, people die. Every episode - at least one dead body.

"Dammit, Barbara!"- La Streisand plays Barbara Romano, just out of her 4th marriage and living with her mom again (Ellen Burstyn) and failure-to-launch son (Jason Gould)- the result of a tryst way back when with Alex (Glenn Scarpelli). She's totally naïve about living, having been pampered her whole adult life by a series of wealthy husbands ("I can't even write a check!"). But it's time to finally grow-up... one day at a time!

Lolly! After her estranged son dies, a famous ex-singer disguises herself and returns from exile to become the housekeeper to her son's hapless widow (Kaley Cuoco) and her grandchildren, without revealing her true identity. Laughs abound as she teaches her new family to live and love again, as only Lolly can. Helping Lolly avoid detection from fans and foes alike is her bumbling nephew (John Stamos) and mad-cap fan club president (Lori Loughlin, in her first post-guilty plea role!).

If you loved The Nanny and adored Mrs. Doubtfire, you must see Lolly!

In the 1980s, there was a wonderful Broadway musical in previews. It was expected to be the hit of the decade. It starred the incredible talent of Barbra Steinway (Streisand). Unfortunately, during one stage rehearsal, a trap door opened unexpectedly and poor Barbra plunged to her death. The musical closed immediately.

Flash forward 30 years, and Simon Mason (played by Eddie Redmayne) who is the the son of the original producer decides to once again take a chance on opening this musical and will direct the show himself. Set with leading lady Nadine Clemence (played by Sutton Foster) the show goes into rehearsal. And on the first day of rehearsal, who should show up? The ghost of Barbra Steinway, who can only be seen by Simon. And Ms. Steinway is very insistent on how the show should be played.

"Last Year at the Malibu Compound"

An aging musical and pop star wanders the overdecorated houses and connecting underground mall of her compound on the cliffs of Malibu as she comments on how tasteful she finds her own decorating style. Various figures from her past keep popping up in different rooms, some of them ghosts (her mother, William Wyler, Donna Summer, Walter Matthau, Sue Mengers, Samantha the dog), some of them still alive (Jason Gould, Roslyn Kind, Ryan O'Neal, James Brolin, Celine Dion, Elliott Gould)--but she cannot tell which is which.
