Ripping Off Juno: ABC's New Pregnant Teen Dramedy
ABC Family has hired 7th Heaven creator Brenda Hampton to create what appears at first glance to be a rip-off of the popular indie dramedy Juno. TV Guide offers a detailed synopsis for this yet-to-be-titled upcoming series about a "Fifteen-year-old" who gets pregnant and "struggles to deal with her feelings for Ricky", the "father". The main character has "loving but 'nice' middle class parents" and "supportive but not too helpful" friends.
I'm sure next week we'll learn that ABC has greenlit a few new pilots: One about cars that transform into robots, another about a bunch of middle age men who like to ride motorcycles, and another about an animated princess who gets trapped in the harsh real world.
