American Blue Cop Drama Pilot Scrapped By HBO Max

Some people make TV shows for a living.

Before a new show is made, they create a 'pilot,' which is the very first episode that shows what the series would be like.

A streaming service called HBO Max decided not to make a pilot for a police drama called 'American Blue.'

The show was about a police officer named Brian 'Milk' Milkovich who goes back to his hometown to help the police force there.

A famous actor named Milo Ventimiglia was going to play the main character.

Losing a show can be sad, but the company that made it, Warner Bros.

Television, will try to find another TV channel or service that wants it.

This way, the show might still get made somewhere else.

HBO Max is still thinking about another family drama called 'How To Survive Without Me' with very famous actors in it.

Making a TV show is a bit like trying out for a school play — you can get picked, or you can be turned away.
