Start Up - Zach Braff to Star in Comedy with Put Pilot Commitment at ABC

Aug 30, 2016

EXCLUSIVE: Scrubs star Zach Braff is returning to series television and to ABC as the star of Start Up, a single-camera comedy, which has received a put pilot commitment. Braff, who also is set to direct, is reuniting with Scrubs co-executive producer Matt Tarses on the Sony TV/Davis Entertainment project, which ABC landed in a competitive situation with multiple networks pursuing.

Written by Tarses, Start Up is based on the podcast Start Up by Alex Blumberg. It is a show about all the things that happen — the good, the bad and the ugly — when a guy (Braff) in his mid-30s with a wife and two kids makes the crazy decision to quit his good job and dive into the brave new world of starting a business. (The title of the comedy will likely change as it matches the name of a new Crackle drama series.)

Tarses and Braff executive produce with Davis Entertainment’s John Davis and John Fox. Braff will direct the potential pilot. Davis Entertainment executive Mike Stein found the podcast and brought it to the company.
