AMC’s Got Kevin Smith’s SECRET STASH

I’m not too crazy about Kevin Smith‘s stuff anymore. I was a huge fan of Jay and Silent Bob (I was even a huge fan of the short-lived animated series) but Smith’s movies in recent years have disappointed me to the point where I’m anticipating RED STATE with caution.
But if you are Smith’s fans, then you’d be glad to know that AMC has greenlighted the new unscripted TV series SECRET STASH which Smith exec-produces and it’s set in the comic shop JAY AND SILENT BOB’S SECRET STASH.
Smith couldn’t have picked a better home for this because AMC has housed a bunch of great shows, (Mad Men, Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead) with great focus on solid storytelling, no doubt, so this is a good sign..
Check out what SECRET STASH is about through excerpt below..

Set in Kevin Smith’s iconic comic shop Jay and Silent Bob’s Secret Stash, the unscripted show captures the world of the neighborhood comic book store and fanboy culture. Season one is six, one-hour episodes and is currently scheduled for a 1Q 2012 launch.

Secret Stash (Working Title)

The Secret Stash is a one hour series that captures the world of the local comic book store. Way before comic book culture went mainstream, the comic store has not only been a place for people to buy, sell, or trade for cool stuff; but also to hang out and be part of a community that just loves comics. Secret Stash will capture both of these aspects of comic store life. It will document the daily banter of The Secret Stash and it’s employees and devoted customers; and it will capture the fun and emotion of buying and selling collectibles and comic memorabilia that happens in comic book stores all across the country and in mega-venues like Comic-Con.
