Proposed U.S. Version
31 October 2015, Gerry Dee and Mr. D co-creator Michael Volpe announced an agreement had been signed with Will Arnett’s newly formed TV production company, Electric Avenue, to develop an American version of the show for American network CBS.[37]
Dee revealed the initial contact with Will Arnett came from a friend of a friend who went to school with Arnett. He state there had been small interest from American television in the past, but this was the first serious proposal to get an American version of the show up.[38]
Dee and Volpe originally pitched the show as an American reboot with Dee reprising his role however CBS is looking to use the show as a vehicle for an American star with Dee and Volpe getting executive producer credits. Veteran comedic actor Tom Arnold has been signed to the title role. CBS also mentioned hiring Tom Hertz as showrunner. Hertz has previously been executive producer of popular American sitcoms Spin City and King of Queens.[38]
While Dee understands a show about his life as a teacher before he became a comedian will be adapted to suit American audiences, with changes including a multi-camera American sitcom system rather than the single camera Canadian system, he hopes the American version will retain Mr. D’s mix of character humour, physical comedy and authenticity, along with its use of talented young actors for students instead of 25-year-olds playing teenagers.[38][39]
