Victor Garber talked about his experience acting with George Michael on “Eli Stone.” Victor Garber plays Jordan Wethersby, the co-owner of the firm where Eli Stone works.
If you had your druthers, what musical guest would they land? You know, I was so in awe of George Michael. I could not believe that they got him. When we read the pilot, I thought, “Oh, nice try, but you’ll never get him.” You know, it’s like, this will never happen. And then, cut to, I’m acting with George Michael. It was fantastic. He was so willing and nervous and sweet. He didn’t realize, you know, you have to sort of like stand in one spot? Like on my close-up, he’d be covering the camera. But he was so sweet. It was a great thrill to work with him.
Eli Stone is the story of a lawyer who suddenly starts to have hallucinations … of George Michael. It starts out with George Michael singing “Faith” on his coffee table. What’s so fun about the first season of this television show is that George Michael makes multiple appearances. All of the show titles are George Michael or Wham! songs, and many of the musical numbers are also George Michael songs.

The DVD release is described as the following:
Follow Eli Stone (Jonny Miller) on his quirky quest for answers in this exciting and upbeat comedic drama. When Eli awakens to an unending George Michael soundtrack that only he can hear, gets dive-bombed by a WWI biplane on a busy San Francisco street, and faces a fire-breathing dragon outside his office window, there are two possible explanations: delusions caused by a potentially fatal brain aneurysm or the chance that something greater is at work. He might just be a prophet sent to change the world. Victor Garber and Loretta Devine lead an acclaimed supporting cast in this wonderfully wacky new series, ELI STONE: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON. Complete with every Season One episode, exclusive bloopers and behind-the-scenes footage, this 4-disc box set will surprise, inspire and leave you feeling like you gotta have faith.

E! is reporting that we may be seeing more of George Michael on “Eli Stone” next season:
George Michael May Be Back: Executive producer Greg Berlanti said scheduling the show’s iconic, pilot-episode guest star for more episodes has been tricky, but they are working on making it happen. “We’ve been talking about a Christmas episode [George Michael] would do around our ninth episode, so he may come back for that.”

“Eli Stone” (Amazon Ad) has been picked up for a second season, according to USA Today. It will air on Tuesdays at 10 p.m.
Jonny Lee Miller stars as the title character Eli Stone, who is a lawyer who has hallucinations that lead him to a higher purpose. The first season includes many George Michael songs and occasional appearances of George Michael.
The second season of Eli Stone does not rely on the George Michael theme, which is a disappointment for George Michael fans.
In 2016, one of the creators of Eli Stone, Marc Guggenheim, told Entertainment Weekly:
George was a singular talent. He had a gift for music that only comes along once in a generation. It was just a bonus that he happened to be one of the nicest, most genuine people you could meet. Many of my fondest memories of the Eli Stone experience are associated with him. 2016 has taken another gift from us.
Marc Guggenheim, co-creator of Eli Stone
