ABC Family has ordered two new comedy series — Mystery Girls and Young & Hungry. The cable channel already has Melissa & Joey and Baby Daddy on their slate.
Starring Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth, Mystery Girls revolves around a pair of former detective TV show stars who are reunited by a real-life mystery. Miguel Pinzon, a newcomer, also stars. Spelling, Garth, and Maggie Malina are executive producers.
Young & Hungry centers around a wealthy young tech entrepreneur who meets a feisty young food blogger, looking to be his personal chef. Emily Osment, Jonathan Sadowski, Rex Lee, Aimee Carrero and Kym Whitley star. Annie Potts is set to recur. Eric Tannenbaum and Kim Tannenbaum are executive producing with Jessica Rhoades and Ashley Tisdale.
ABC Family president Tom Ascheim, said, “It’s great to start the new year and my tenure at ABC Family with the pickup of these two funny original series. ABC Family’s comedy lineup continues to resonate with our audience and I’m thrilled to boost that momentum by adding Mystery Girls and Young & Hungry, which are sure to become fan favorites.”
What do you think? Are you looking forward to checking out these new comedy series?
I love Mystery Girls. Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling look fabulous for their age. My family and I love it!!
I caught the last half of Mystery Girls… I can’t even believe that show got picked up! It’s soo uncomfortably bad! The writing, the sets, the acting.. Jenny Garth is super cute, she is Way too good for this however it’s right up Tori’s alley..
I will be shocked if it lasts a full season
I thought young and hungry was cute and funny. Emily Osment is adorable in the show. The acting is good. I found the pap smear joke a little distasteful but otherwise this show will definitely be a big hit. I liked it better than mystery girls. I just wish it wasn’t up against So You Think You Can Dance.
Secret Life is over the producers from the show and actor and actress called it quits
Bring back “Secret Life”.
