Director Beth McCarthy-Miller Ventures Into Development With ABC Comedy project

• The ABC Studios project centers on a politically correct modern-day guy who is haunted by the ghost of his father – a 1950’s “winner,” who coaches him on life and love…

  This is why I can’t sell a pilot… I’m not smart enough to think up something this dumb.

• No disrespect intended, sincerely, but what makes Ellen R such a get? People obviously like her but has she written anything that’s been produced in a decade?

  • Ellen Rapoport’s script Desperados was on the Black List last year and was probably the funniest script I’d read in that decade you’re so misinformed about. She’s on everyone’s short list for a reason.

  • she and her husband michael seitzman are massive self-promoters. so that’s part of it – why does abc studios give him deal after deal without his getting anything on the air?

    and she wrote a “female hangover” that made it to the blacklist a few years ago. no idea if it was good, but i think it’s getting made. so that’s to her credit.
