While in New York, Peter and writing partner Michael Scalisi wrote the Film Who I Did On My Summer Vacation, which was set to go starring Scarlett Johansson, but when the German economy went down the tube, so did the money for Scarlett.Instead of slitting his wrist, Peter went back to his television roots and created, produced and wrote, with Nick Scotti, the cult reality series New York Nick for E!'s Style Network. But Hollywood called again (and honestly the winters in New York were brutal). So Peter sold his loft and moved to the Hills of Beverly, well Sunset.
