Now, with streaming TV shows, it would be a good time to bring a beverly hills cop tv series back, especially with the fourth beverly hills cop film just coming out. Paramount plus would be a good place for it, because it could be as edgy and r rated as the films, which it couldn't be on mainstream television. Streaming service shows have a lot more freedom as far as how edgy a show can be in comparison to network tv. Also they can make episodes as long or as short as they want to. So, I'd love to see Eddie Murphy star in a beverly hills cop limited series on paramount plus, to bridge between the fourth and the now confirmed fifth film.
Rumour has it this would have been Eddie Murphy's only one time cameo appearanc for the show. Murphy and Jackson have good chemistry, but had this show gone to be a series, it would have been cancelled after one season. You can't have Beverly Hills Cop without Eddie Murphy. FACTS!!!
You can't have Beverly Hills Cop without Eddie Murphy? In case you haven't noticed, they have been crapping out shows like this left and right. Fresh Prince without Will Smith, Ted without Mark Wahlberg, and the list goes on and on.
@@TonyAlberaTed isn’t a good comparison. Because that show made my sides hurt from how hilarious it was. And Mark Wahlberg doesn’t make the movie. Ted does. That’s why no matter what shit they’re trying to do with Pirates of The Caribbean I simply won’t watch if there’s no Johnny Depp. I agree with you on those other shows, though.
Yeah that's why I would have loved for it to just be a movie. I feel like it's hard for Eddie to commit to a full series with his schedule but he can do a movie
The absolute only reason they didn't pick this up was because Eddie Murphy refused to appear in any more episodes. They wanted him to appear "every now and then". Murphy said, "No!" This pilot was the highest performing pilot in 20 years, said CBS execs. Every time Eddie showed up, the test audiences would turn their dials up to 10.

My review after watching the leaked pilot: it's rough but most pilots are. Good actors but some of the dialogue reeks of standard CBS procedural and not Beverly Hills Cop, it's insanely watered down. Brandon T. Jackson is good, shame he never blew up after Tropic Thunder but maybe this show would've done it? Pilot is carried by the nostalgia of Eddie Murphy as Axel Foley and it was awesome seeing Judge Reinhold as Billy Rosewood again, this time as the mayor! My personal favorite character in the series. Overall, kinda glad this didn't come out as I think BHC should be saved as a film
Yeah remember back in 2016 when they did rush hour as a TV show on CBS and that bombed but I agree this would've been a great show if Eddie Murphy was in some of the episodes along with Judge Reinhold in it that would have been awesome but I also want to see Beverly Hills Cop 4 later on this year
The new movie was GREAT! But Eddie is more in character in these scenes than the Axel F movie. I think personally anyways. This was 10 year ago mind you . I loved how the New movie still had and went for that 80s Vibe. Was very Nostalgic. 🎉❤😊😊😊
CBS didn't pick this up because they thought Eddie was gonna pop up in every episode. After they talked to him & he said he "ain't popping in shit," they didn't pick it up.
@@JohnDoe-cd6ro The guy in the video is _not_ named Jessie T. Usher, who was the son of Shaft and who is A-Train in _The Boys._ Totally different guy named Brandon T. Jackson who was in _Tropic Thunder_ and possibly that _Big Momma House_ film. (I’ll have to check). So, no, you didn’t.
Damn this isn't fair to Eddie his iconic MOVIE character slumming it in a TV pilot..(be like seeing Tom Cruise grinning his way through a failed 00s Top Gun tv pilot with son of Maverick) thankfully Ackwell is coming back to the big screen where he belongs in a proper BHC IV from Jerry Bruckheimer
The 4th movie "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley", filmed recently for Netflix has Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Bronson Pinchot and Paul Reiser all reprising their roles. Ronnie Cox (Bogomil) originally agreed to return, but disliked the script so he backed out. Supposedly the plan is for a streaming date sometime in early '24.
@@Honduliocoolio This video had nothing to do with the 4th movie, whch was completed last year. Around 2013 a decision was made to transform BHC into a TV series.These decade-old clips are scenes from the pilot episode,shot before that whole idea was mercifully scrapped.
@@alucard624 I thought BHC 2 definitely suffered because Ronny Cox was committed to filming Robocop so Bogomil had little involvement. Nothing was going to save the 3rd one.
I don’t hate Brandon Jackson but Im honestly glad this never got picked up? I prefer Jane as Axels kid over this. I never dug the idea of a carbon copy of Axel. I like the difference between Axel as a cop and Jane as a lawyer.
This looks terrible and stinks of lazy modern day writing, house easy to break into, alarm panel not locked, acting has no class like the 80s also the movies was based on foley and his antics, this is like ‘bad boys’ (which stunk aswell) the singular hero is why the action hero works. Look at video games from the 80s/90s they try to remake eg duke nukem, too many npcs and dialogue, less about the protagonist
So, let's talk about the jacket. Back when this was going to be a "thing" on TV, the iconic Lions letterman jacket was updated. there were three set photos: one w/ someone in the wardrobe dept. holding the jacket to be photographed from the back; one w/ Eddie wearing one; and one w/ Brandon wearing one over a hoodie. This exact jacket was sold only at a screening of BHC 2 by NFL & G-III. They were cut big, so the smallest size was a medium, the one size that sold out almost immediately. I tracked one down a month or so after release, so happy to have a screen accurate one. As we all know, that didn't happen. I still love the jacket and hang it up right next to my self made 80% accurate one.
This is trash to the original 3 films including the controversial 3rd. I will say on looks alone….this does look like it was born out BHC3. It does look extremely connected while being trash script wise.
The script was written by former Nash Bridges writer and creator of The Shield Shawn Ryan. Usually, he is an excellent tv scribe, but he missed the boat with this one. I read the script and found it rather pedestrian. Much like the lead who has zero charisma and absolutely no chemistry with Murphy. They feel like strangers not father and son. A show like this needs to be built around a persona and this guy doesn't have one!
Good actors but horrible script on this pilot episode. Thank god it didn't air because it would ruin any chance of seeing BHC 4. Let's just hope BHC 4 doesn't resemble this.
I like the chemistry between Brandon and Eddie, but yeah, Beverly Hills Cop is an R-rated movie franchise, not a TV show. I would definitely see the two of them together in a movie, though.
Should have kept Brandon t Jackson would have been a great come back ! He is so funny it would have been great but they replaced him with randomness still haven’t watched this on Netflix
The full episode finally "leaked" a few months ago. I saw it a few weeks ago right after I watched this video. I thought it was pretty solid. Even if Eddie was never gonna be in all episodes, the chemistry and dynamic was there between Brandon T Jackson and the other 2 cops who were his Billy and Taggart so it definitely would have been a good enough buddy cop TV show.
@@megafan2000 the whole pilot is on RUclips now. Was glad to see it, finally after chasing down set photos and snippets! Passing of the jacket was boss; good luck getting three days a year to wear it in So. Cal.
@@allanbard6048 nice that it's on RUclips but I do wonder if Paramount eventually takes it down. I saw it on internet archive, so it was clean without the French subtitles on it.
Eddie Murphy's performance as Axel F for just nostalgia sake is probably the only redeeming factor here. I wouldn't call Murphy's appearance noteworthy. His performance is dead flat. Like he couldn't give a shit.
But this is way better than Axel F. I'm wondering why Murphy couldn't have given this level of performance in the new one. He's absolute garbage in it.
@j.cgallagher7092 in both cases it was for the paycheck. Eddie doesn't like this type of stuff anymore. He now wants family friendly. The most edgy he's gone in 20 years is the biopic dolomite , he had co writers that helped him develop it also. Then he solely wrote coming to america 2 wich was pretty bad unfortunately.
so they really just acted like this never happened? so they cancelled this show and made a 4th movie just to NOT use this idea? but spin it with a daughter and doesn't even mention his son? Brandon T didn't even have to be in it. but to leave this plot hole wide open as if it didn't exist is just artistically foolish. 4 still was good, but now im' disappointed with the lazy writing (if you seen the Die Hard sequels post "with a vengeance" you'll understand)
@RapRants lethal weapon was a procedural pilot also ... the difference is that it was actually good... even training day the series which was on CBS it was 100 times better 😂😂😂😂cringy comedy just like that rush hour series 🗑
I mean, if Eddie Murphy would've committed to more appearances and he had more scenes with Rosewood, it could've worked short-term. Definitely not more than one season, if that.
Not surprised this pilot didn’t go forward as a series. I’m sure between Eddie Murphy and Jerry Bruckheimer their salaries ate up about 90% of the budget.

Aw man, I wish we had this instead of Axel F
These clips actually look pretty good!
This was better than Beverly Hills Cop 3 for sure.
@@bigdoghu and 4.
That's a low bar to clear
@@j.cgallagher7092you high
@3PriMaL Unfortunately not. You'd have to be high to enjoy 4. A ridiculous children's movie.
@@j.cgallagher7092 a lot of people did including me ig we all children I’m fine with that
Corny
Then swipe left dummy
Should have kept Brandon t Jackson would have been a great come back ! He is so funny it would have been great but they replaced him with randomness still haven’t watched this on Netflix
Not gritty enough. Needed to look more like the films.
Why wasn’t his son in the third one?
So Jane has a brother??? Nah I know this isn’t cannon but it would’ve been cool though if it was lol
This would have been so good. I want to see more now
They got part 4 coming out
The full episode finally "leaked" a few months ago. I saw it a few weeks ago right after I watched this video. I thought it was pretty solid. Even if Eddie was never gonna be in all episodes, the chemistry and dynamic was there between Brandon T Jackson and the other 2 cops who were his Billy and Taggart so it definitely would have been a good enough buddy cop TV show.
Heck yeah me to !
@@megafan2000 the whole pilot is on RUclips now. Was glad to see it, finally after chasing down set photos and snippets! Passing of the jacket was boss; good luck getting three days a year to wear it in So. Cal.
@@allanbard6048 nice that it's on RUclips but I do wonder if Paramount eventually takes it down. I saw it on internet archive, so it was clean without the French subtitles on it.
No. Just no. Axel F belongs on film,not tv
Thank god this wasn't picked up, to PG for beverly hills cop
This is Bad Boys TV series
Eddie looks like he hasn't aged since BHC3
tough. but the new movie is better.
This could’ve been a really good movie. I like the chemistry.
Rocky 4 mansion
Eddie Murphy's performance as Axel F for just nostalgia sake is probably the only redeeming factor here. I wouldn't call Murphy's appearance noteworthy. His performance is dead flat. Like he couldn't give a shit.
Why didn't Murphy act like this in the 4th one? He was so bad in it but so was everything else too.
This came out a decade ago , not the same energy or vibe plus Eddie didn't want to do it.
But this is way better than Axel F. I'm wondering why Murphy couldn't have given this level of performance in the new one. He's absolute garbage in it.
@j.cgallagher7092 in both cases it was for the paycheck. Eddie doesn't like this type of stuff anymore. He now wants family friendly. The most edgy he's gone in 20 years is the biopic dolomite , he had co writers that helped him develop it also. Then he solely wrote coming to america 2 wich was pretty bad unfortunately.
1st time watching this despite knowing about it for many years. It looks pretty solid. I'm sure the full version is out there online somewhere.
There's a certain well-known Internet archive site you might want to try...
It's on youtube (w/French subtitles).
I never knew they tried to make a Beverly Hills Cop tv show.
It was better this was cancelled.
But in Axel F 2, he needs to be canonized as Taylor Paige older brother
So weird seeing this now a 4th film is out.
no badges shown instantly complies and gives video footage/evidence, great script writing
😂
It's entertainment yo....not that deep
that was dope
Love the vibe they had. They should have done some other movie.. way different vibe than with the daughter angle
I'm so glad they have let this one out. I thought I'd never see it. Now I'm hoping for Kevin Bacons Tremors TV pilot to come online
Hell yeah
Brandon t jackson was everywhere for about 5 years then disappeared
Man eddie is just always amazing as axel foley. I could watch him play this guy forever
so they really just acted like this never happened? so they cancelled this show and made a 4th movie just to NOT use this idea? but spin it with a daughter and doesn't even mention his son? Brandon T didn't even have to be in it. but to leave this plot hole wide open as if it didn't exist is just artistically foolish. 4 still was good, but now im' disappointed with the lazy writing (if you seen the Die Hard sequels post "with a vengeance" you'll understand)
Never even knew about this, looks like it could’ve been good
This some bullshit man we should have got this
The hotel desk scene was actually pretty funny.
Felt it was pretty bland ...the pilot is a ruff watch an Eddie def has a ton of bad films but this pilot 🗑
@@kamikazeekobra7187 I mean...it's a CBS procedural pilot.
@RapRants lethal weapon was a procedural pilot also ... the difference is that it was actually good... even training day the series which was on CBS it was 100 times better 😂😂😂😂cringy comedy just like that rush hour series 🗑
Why did this not happen instead of that watered down ass shit that’s on Netflix
Is it me or does this lady 3:39 looks like Mick Jagger! 😂
Not terrible...
I wonder if that's the reason why Axel doesn't have his old Lions jacket in the new movie.
Maybe they should had turned this into a movie instead
I mean, if Eddie Murphy would've committed to more appearances and he had more scenes with Rosewood, it could've worked short-term. Definitely not more than one season, if that.
I’m glad this show didn’t happen
I felt like we could of got at least one season out of this
I don’t think Murphy was going to be in all of it. Just the pilot
@thribs even still it would been good I think he would made cameos
Not surprised this pilot didn’t go forward as a series. I’m sure between Eddie Murphy and Jerry Bruckheimer their salaries ate up about 90% of the budget.
Man I love the old tv but I wish they did what streaming did instead of cancelling
I don’t remember this coming out
It's just the pilot that never went to series. It was shot in 2013 but didn't get "released" until just last year.
I have a feeling this would've been a great show.😊
So in this alternate reality Rosewood is the mayor?
Rosewood mayor, An had a son instead of a daughter
This is pretty good! I like the chemistry between Eddie and Brandon.
