The sitcom is inspired by the life of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and will center on his childhood, teenage years, and adolescence. Johnson will EP the series and also bookend each episode.

Johnson teased: https://www.instagram.com/tv/B7MdMx9lqDv/

Quote:
My close friends refer to me as the big, brown tattooed Forrest Gump because of everyone and everything that has weaved in and out of my surreal life.
I’ve seen it all my friends - success, failure, homelessness, evictions, suicide attempts, arrests, hard times, good times, low times, high times.
And all this shit happened to me by the time I turned 21

This is a show about my young life.
And the lessons I learned.


Quote:
“Just imagine me at 15 in downtown Nashville, listening to honky tonk, buying my first car from a crackhead for $70 – I did talk him down so I was a pretty good negotiator. Then we go into high school years and then I became University of Miami football star, if you will, until I got beat out of my position by a guy by the name of Warren Sapp, who went on to become one of the greatest defensive tackles of all time,” he added.


Johnson is hyping the story of his life as the greatest thing since sliced bread:

Quote:
NBC bought the show in the room, according to Johnson. “When we pitched the show to our friends at NBC, at the end of the pitch, all jaws were dropped and all hands were raised and they said ‘we are in 100%, you’re not allowed to pitch this anywhere else’,” he said.


The pilot was co-written by Khan and Fresh Off the Boat co-executive producer Jeff Chiang.


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
