— Hollywood Reporter (@THR) September 1, 2015
The network has opted to cancel the straight-to-series follow-up starring Craig T. Nelson, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Barry Kemp — who created the original series that ran on ABC for nine seasons — was attached to write the NBC follow-up and exec produce the Universal Television multicamera series with Nelson.
Insiders say the comedy, which had just begun production, was not going well and multiple people inside NBC were not optimistic about the project from the start.
