Joey Dakota was a proposed pilot for a 2012 romantic time-travel musicl TV show based on the
Israeli show
Danny Hollywood. Sadly, The CW didn’t pick it up for the fall season,
and I’m not sure whether it ever aired as a TV movie. However, here’s what Vincent
Terrace had to say about the fated pilot in his
Encyclopedia
of Unaired Television Pilots, 1945–2018:
Maya Beaumont
is a young woman who works as a documentary film maker. When she is assigned to a project
involving Joey Dakota, a 1990s music superstar, she is mysteriously transported back in time
where she meets and later falls in love with the subject of her film. However, just as
mysteriously as she was propelled back in time, she is whisked back to the present where,
during her absence, she learns that Joey has been killed in a car accident. The pilot, which
incorporates flashbacks to the 1990s, follows Maya as she seeks a way to return to the past
and rewrite history to save Joey’s life in the future.
