Rob Thomas is now a Big Shot producer

It seems like Rob Thomas is going through a mid-career crisis. After his series Veronica Mars was not renewed by the CW network back in May, Thomas has been floating around the television world looking for a new venture. Back in early July he was picked to head up the new ABC series Miss/Guided. However, two weeks later he left his position as executive producer and showrunner under the "creative differences" umbrella (I wonder if I could use that line when I leave my IT position).

Now, according to our dear, dear friend Michael Ausiello over at TV Guide, Thomas has joined Big Shots (another ABC show) as a consulting producer. He will be in good company this time around as the executive producers of the show, Danielle Stokdyk and Jennifer Gwartz, were former producers on Veronica Mars.

So far, Big Shots hasn't had the biggest buzz for this upcoming fall season. In his post, Ausiello doesn't hold back on his opinions of this show. In addition, our own Jen Creer gave a less than stellar appraisal of the program during our fall pilot reviews. Perhaps Thomas sees Big Shots as more of a challenge to make work then he did Miss/Guided. Then again, we may be writing about his "creative differences" on this show in a few weeks time.
