ABC Network has ordered a pilot episode for a new comedy series titled “The Son In Law.” The single-camera show will be written and executive produced by Ajay Sahgal (The Carmichael Show) and executive produced by Jake Kasdan and Melvin Mar. Kasdan and Mar have produced Disney+’s Doogie Kamealoha M.D., ABC‘s Fresh Off the Boat, and Disney+’s upcoming American Born Chinese.
In “The Son In Law,” a salt-of-the-earth man finds himself seeking the approval of his new fiancée’s sophisticated parents, even as he is a difficult-to-impress father-in-law to his daughter’s longtime boyfriend.
Sahgal served as executive producer for The Carmichael Show, wrote the pilot for Pandas In New York, and wrote and directed It’s a Shame About Ray.
