Don Johnson is reportedly in shock – and so are we. His NBC dramedy “Mann’s World” was NOT picked up by the network! It seemed like a slam-dunk. The show was about a flirtatious hairdresser in his 50’s struggling to compete in youth –oriented Beverly Hills. Don’s character was loosely based on Warren Beatty’s hairdresser in “Shampoo.” The show was created by “Sex & the City” creator Michael Patrick King. NBC executives just weren’t impressed with the pilot and passed on the show. (Above, Don and his wife Kelley are pictured leaving a Prince concert.)

Don Johnson has started filming his new series “Mann’s World” in Los Angeles. “Sex and the City” creator Michael Patrick King wrote and is directing this series about a successful but ageing celebrity hairdresser in Beverly Hills trying to stay connected in a youth obsessed world. Don got his actor son Jesse, 28, a role as his son on the show. (Jesse’s mother is Patti D’Arbanville) In the scene above, Don’s character rear-ended a woman’s car and they are exchanging information. Although it’s described as a “drama” we expect some funny situations.
