USA Network is teaming up with Don Johnson and Village Roadshow to bring us a Nash Bridges revival. Johnson is the only member of the original cast to be attached to the revival. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the revival would be a 2 hour special program for USA Network.

The Nash Bridges revival would be the first time that Village Roadshow would revive one of their properties. Village Roadshow is looking for ways to maximize their investments in these properties.

Bill Chais (The Practice, Shark, Franklin & Bash, Bull) and Johnson will co-create the special. Johnson, Chais and Marc Rosen (Sense8) will exec produce.

Talks are in the early stages and currently there isn’t a date or timetable for the revival.

Kumail Nanjiani was scheduled to appear on TBS’s late night show, Conan, to promote his new movie Stuber. However, Nanjiani cancelled at the last minute due to a scheduling conflict. Conan O’Brien’s response is just epic.

The late night veteran came out an announced that he “didn’t know what type of show” they were going to have. O’Brien explains that Nanjiani cannot leave the set of Silicon Valley to make his appearance and thus they had no guest. Watch Conan’s full response below.
