TV Land Orders First Single-Camera Comedy

TV Land has given the greenlight to its first single-camera series, Jennifer Falls. The cable network announced Monday that the comedy, which had been developed as a multi-camera show, will premiere this summer as a single-cam.

Created by Matthew Carlson, who will executive produce with Michael Hanel and Mindy Schultheis, Jennifer Falls stars Jamie Pressly as a working mother who must move back in with her own mom after losing her six-figure salary job. With her teenage daughter in tow, Jennifer has to face her new life and figure out what the next steps are to rebuild.

“We are really excited to make this foray into single-camera comedy,” said TV Land president Larry Jones. “With Jaime at the helm and such high-caliber talent behind the camera, we have the perfect combination for this multi-dimensional series.”

Jennifer Falls is written, created and executive produced by Matthew Carlson (The Wonder Years, Malcolm in the Middle), with Michael Hanel and Mindy Schultheis (Reba, The Exes) also serving as executive producers.

Jones and Keith Cox will serve as executive producers for TV Land on the series.
