HBO to get STONED!

By Matt Holmes /

We don't really delve into t.v. too much around these parts but a sitcom based around The Rolling Stones - really? Developed by screenwriter Wesley Strick (Cape Fear, Doom) and based "loosely" on on the autobiographies of 1960's Rolling Stones producer-manager Andrew Loog Oldham, the sitcom is likely to be centered around a young Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Brian Jones, Bill Wyman and Oldham - the guy who manages them! Oldham's biographies are Stoned, and 2Stoned - so the former is likely to be the title of the show. Says Variety...
Project is described as a fictional account of a young man living the high life with artists and hipsters in London's vibrant Soho scene in the early 1960s.
