Casting New TV Show: POOL HALL KINGS

Major Hollywood production company casting for a fun, edgy, sensationalized new TV show that would follow the real lives of POOL HALL KINGS - modern day pool hall gamblers, sharks, hustlers, etc. Ideally we’d find (or assemble) a noted/infamous group of talented, big personality, knock around pool players who challenge each other and throw their hard-earned money on the line in the process. And obviously have a little fun along the way.

If you think you, your friends, your local pool hall or someone you know would be a good fit for the show, please reach out to introduce yourself at poolhallkings@gmail.com.

Sorry to spam your forum, but since this seems to be the best one on the web, I figured it would be good place to get to word out! Thanks!

Welcome to AZB. I don't count this in any way as spam as it is pool related. Tons of good luck with the show. I hope you hit a homerun. johnnyt

Sounds awesome!!

This concept sounds a lot like Street Outlaws on Discovery Channel only based on pool. I've been hoping someone would do up a show like this based on pool for a long time. Good luck with the show:smile:

you listed your post as a casting call. What are you looking for EXACTLY? what age?, what location?, when is filming?, what speed or level of pool player? what is the compensation? What releases are required to participate?

You have a lot to disclose to get a really good turn out and response to your casting call. All the best!

I hope this shows doesn't make pool players look like the idiots on the cast of Jersey Shore! Who knows, maybe it will be great for pool. I guess I am a bit on the skeptical side though.

I'm guessing Poutine has nothing to do with with ice fishing, eh?

That said, I wish you lived closer to Hollywood and were casted, and put some of your comedic expertise on the line!
 
So we're sticking to the old image that's kept pool in the crapper for the last half century then?

I'm 40yrs old and i still get the "oh be careful, bad people hang out in pool rooms" warning from my 87yr old grandmother every time i bring up that i play pool...lol

The funny or sad part is that at 40 i'm one of the youngest people that hangs around the pool room so i can probably take most of the 60+yr olds if the poop ever hits the fan...lol.

But you might be on to something, both my grandmothers who've never set foot in a pool room are now 87 and 99 and still going strong where as the pool playing grandfathers both didn't make it to 65.
 
the disconnect:

you're looking for big personality knock-around pool players who throw their hard-earned money on the line?

good luck... :grin:

best,

KK, you've never heard of Poutine.

French fries, Cheese curds with smoldering hot gravy poured over top, which in turn melts
the cheese curds. And turns it into a mouth watering, cheesy, fattening delicacy that no one should eat but we do anyway.

Your arteries say, stop, you're trying to make me hard. Your heart says, stop, you're trying to kill me. And we say, FU, suck it up, major body components.
 
I wish you well. I bet it will be entertaining at the expense of pro pool.

Anyway, since I can't change the world, look up Scooter Goodman.
