凯尔西·格拉默将主演NBC新剧《Pops》 时隔22年重返NBC出演高龄急救员
据Deadline等多家娱乐媒体10月14日至15日报道，艾美奖得主凯尔西·格拉默将主演并担任执行制片的剧情新剧《Pops》正在NBC开发中。这将是格拉默时隔22年重返NBC——他饰演的弗雷泽·克莱恩医生曾在该台的《欢乐酒店》和《弗雷泽》中活跃十余年，《弗雷泽》于2004年收官。
与喜剧出身的弗雷泽不同，《Pops》是一部剧情片：格拉默将饰演主角——一名在成功职业生涯中「超龄」退场、急需重新开始的男子，他转身投入急救医疗一线，与一群年纪只有他一半的急救人员并肩工作。该剧由《Chicago医情》的编剧兼制片人丹尼·韦斯执笔，制作方包括环球电视、格拉默的Grammnet NH Productions与3 Arts Entertainment。
该剧取材于马里兰州居民埃德·莱维恩的真实经历：他在广告业功成身退后，六十多岁成为一名志愿急救员，因年长被年轻同事昵称为「Pops」（老爹），一直干到去年秋天76岁退休，共服务约12年。莱维恩本人也将担任该剧执行制片。目前《Pops》尚处于开发阶段，NBC尚未正式预订成季。（GSM 据Deadline、TVLine报道）
Kelsey Grammer to Star in NBC Drama 'Pops' as a Late-Life EMT
Kelsey Grammer is set to star in and executive-produce 'Pops,' a new drama series in development at NBC, Deadline and other outlets reported Oct. 14-15. The project marks Grammer's return to NBC 22 years after 'Frasier' ended its 11-season run in 2004; his Dr. Frasier Crane also appeared on the network in 'Cheers' and 'Wings.' A 'Frasier' revival ran for two seasons on Paramount+ in 2023-2024.
Unlike the sitcom role that made him famous, 'Pops' is a drama. Grammer will play the title character, a man who has aged out of a successful career and, in desperate need of a fresh start, jumps into the chaotic world of emergency medicine alongside first responders half his age. The series is written by 'Chicago Med' veteran Danny Weiss, with Universal Television, Grammer's Grammnet NH Productions and 3 Arts Entertainment producing.
The show is based on the true story of Maryland resident Ed Levien, who followed a successful advertising career by becoming a volunteer EMT in his 60s. Nicknamed 'Pops' by his younger colleagues, Levien worked as an EMT for about 12 years before retiring last fall at age 76. Levien is an executive producer on the series, which is in development and has not yet been ordered to series. (GSM, based on reporting by Deadline and TVLine)
