ABC gives thumbs down to Alyssa Milano's sitcom
by Allison Waldman, posted Nov 5th 2008 7:06PM
Last spring, ABC had high hopes for a new sitcom starring TV fave Alyssa Milano. Today, not so much. ABC decided to dump Alyssa Milano's show, Single With Parents, claiming that there were creative differences between the show's creator, Kristin Newman (How I Met Your Mother), and the rest of the producers. Ouch. Can't we all just get along?
Actually, if there are problems at this stage of the game -- after just producing a pilot -- it might be better for the network to pass on this and consider working with Alyssa on something else down the road. We've seen far too many shows make it to air that should have never gotten the greenlight, so maybe in these tough economic times, caution is wise these days.
