Jason Segel's mysterious new TV show sounds like his coolest project

If you like hilarious big geniuses that are not appreciated, here's good news for you: Jason Segel returns to television. Jason Segel's new show Dispatches From Elsewhere finally has a home at AMC, and it could be established in 2019.

Segel fans will recognize that Dispatches From Elsewhere is his TV's first role since How I met your mother wrapped up in 2014. It's also the first TV project that Segel created, played in, and produced executive too – and it seems really, really cool.

Here is How The Wrap describes the series:

Dispatches From Elsewhere Talks about a group of ordinary people who are falling on a hidden puzzle just behind the veil of everyday life . They will discover that the mystery sinks deeper than they ever imagined.

Also by The Wrap it will be more than just a television show. The AMC reports that "the one-hour anthology series will include elements of TV viewers' engagement across multiple media platforms." Yes, this sounds like a lot of unfathomable business buzzwords (like "synergy"), but that just means that AMC studios are going out of their way to involve the audience in the series. Creative? Unique? Soon to have a dedicated audience base? It looks like the classic Segel.

David Madden, the president of the original lineup for AMC (and SundanceTV, and AMC Studios) issued an effusive statement that praised Segel's work. "AMC has a proven history of finding shows that rise above, in every way, and we think Dispatches From Elsewhere will be an incredible addition to this club," he said for Variety. He added:

"It's a very special project based on a truly unique premise and populated with vivid characters, all driven by Jason's wildly creative vision." We're delighted that viewers see this bold series, full of wit and exciting. "

So do not be surprised that Segel seems as excited about the case.

In his message shared by a press release, the creator of the series announced, "I'm delighted to tell this story to AMC, I really could not imagine a better team and a more perfect home for this material. "According to The Wrap he starts filming soon – potentially as early as the beginning of 2019. At this rate, fans could set to watch before Game of Thrones Premiere Series 8 even if it is not competitive shows! Just that, for TV nerds trying to finalize their 2019 viewing schedules, this one could come before they know it.

Segel's long-time fans should be excited about the news: the multi-talented performer – he writes comedy, he writes music, he acts, creates, produces, etc. . but the entertainment needs him. His characters tend to be warm and charismatic and hug and laugh hilarious. It will be a joy to see him return to the small screen every week, since News From Around will be his first role on television in five years, but not only, but the show seems unusual and original as Segel himself. He should definitely be one to look forward to.
