Yes, its the season of new TV series, or at least, the hopefuls. Anyway, there are more than a handful of new pilots that will air this season and when I mean more than a handful, I mean more than 10! And I mean, 20!
From ABC comes a comedy about an optimistic girl from the heartland. Here is the official one we got from TV.com… Can we say it’s official if it came from TV. com? Well, I guess so.
Network: ABC
This comedy centers on an earnest, honest, optimistic girl from the heartland who, due to circumstances beyond her control, is forced to move in with a sexy, unstable New York City party girl with the morals of a pirate.
Starring: Krysten Ritter (Breaking Bad, as the party girl), James Van Der Beek (as himself)
Yes Folks, Dawson is back from super long hiatus.. well, he did play a football jock a few years after(?) The Creek right? Van Der Beek has always been sought after during pilot season for drama projects.. but apparently, comedy is his next real gig.
Why this show should be made:
In addition to its fantastic title (and thanks for abbreviating “apartment”!), the core cast is solid. With the title and its meta role for Dawson, we get the feeling this show’s tone will be eccentric and unique.
Why it might not get made: Sometimes a concept that looks good on the page falls flat when it’s actually shot, and that could happen here.
