ABC Family Grabs Two New Comedies for 2014

This is a big year for ABC Family comedy pilots especially since no new comedy shows were picked up by the network last year. The network has given series orders to two of its three comedy pilots: Mystery Girls, and Young & Hungry, starring Emily Osment. Production on both comedies will begin early this year for a premiere later in 2014. “Mystery Girls and Young & Hungry join ABC Family’s established comedy series Melissa & Joey and Baby Daddy.

Former 90210 starlets, Tori Spelling & Jennie Garth are set to reunite in the first pickup decision of 2014 for ABC Family. "Mystery Girls,” starring two former detective TV show starlets brought back together by a real-life mystery. Charlie Contour (Garth) is a suburban housewife and mother, while Holly Hamilton (Spelling) longs for her glory days in the 90’s when she was on television. Both of their lives are disrupted when Nick (Pinzon), a witness to a crime and a ‘Mystery Girls’ fanatic, will only speak to the infamous duo, and the former friends must reunite and put their TV crime-solving skills to the test.
