If you were looking forward to seeing Alyssa Milano in a starring role on an ABC comedy, we’ve got bad news for you. ABC has decided to scrap Single With Parents, one of the new series they had lined up for midseason. The reason? What else? Creative differences among the producers.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, ABC pulled the plug on the show because apparently the series creator Kristin Newman, whose production credits include That 70’s Show, and How I Met your Mother and the rest of the production team had some disagreements on the direction of the series.
Single With Parents was set to star Alyssa Milano, who would play a woman attempting to juggle her dysfunctional family, friends and her boss. That’s not a very complex (or original) premise for a half-hour comedy but given Milano’s involvement and Newman’s previous work, this series definitely had something going for it. It’s too bad the producers weren’t able to work things out.
