In 2012, entertainer-turned-mogul Byron Allen (ex-Real People) decided to branch out his EntertainmentStudios.com into more of a legit production company. The first fruits were a trio of scripted series, only one of which remains in production as of press time, and that is Justice For All With Cristina Perez (previously reviewed).
Mr. Box Office was 1/2 of a hour-long syndicated comedy block that had a floating weekend timeslot, depending on where you lived. A hot star (Bill Bellamy, formerly of MTV and Fastlane) is sentenced by a judge to be a high school teacher for a misdemeanor. Meanwhile, his agent (Jon Lovitz, ex-Newsradio, The Critic) is trying to get him back on track. Viveca A. Fox & Tim Meadows co-star. Here's the open.
What we saw didn't impress us, and currently, Centric has the cable rights. It appears the series is out of production.
Rating: C.
