Malibu Countdown
Malibu Countdown is a fusion Scripted Reality meets Lifestyle Video Show with a twist. It reinvents the wheel by having celebrity guest interviews on an open platform and in a relaxed environment.
The Malibu Countdown series stars Tiffany Haddish and DC Young Fly.
Tiffany Haddish is a young black female comic who moved from South Central LA to Malibu after landing a role on a TV series.
She tries hard to fit in with all of her conservative white celebrity neighbors, but tries even harder to get her LA friends to adapt to her new lifestyle.
The show was created and written by Marche Meeks. The co-producers of this exciting project are respected industry veterans Ralph Farquhar, Carl Craig and Chris Robinson. Chris Robinson, Jr. was the director.
