ABC Picks Up Surviving Suburbia For Mid-Season Schedule
February 4th, 2009 | 0 Comments | Email | Share | TweetABC has picked up the comedy Surviving Suburbia for its mid-season lineup, with 13 episodes already shot. The network has scheduled the series to run after Dancing With the Stars in April.
The series will premiere April 6 at 9:30 pm, filling the slot vacated by Samantha Who now that the Christina Applegate comedy is moving to Thursdays. Surviving Surburbia is about a couple who have been married for 20 years, have two children and a cookie-cutter house in the idyllic suburbs, but with Saget’s character maintaining a cynical point of view.
The show was originally planned as part of the CW’s Sunday night block. The series has found a new home at ABC for its midseason lineup, with 13 episodes already shot. The move brings Bob Saget back to the network after playing a suburban dad for nearly a decade on Full House and hosting America’s Funniest Home Videos.
