New Comedy Headed to ABC

BURBANK: Production is under way on the new ensemble comedy Romantically Challenged, starring Alyssa Milano, which will debut this season on ABC.

Milano stars as Rebecca, a recently divorced mother of two who doesn’t have the most active dating life. Her best friend since childhood, Perry (played by Kyle Bornheimer), is a true romantic who falls in love easily. Perry lives with his best friend Shawn (Josh Lawson), a struggling writer who is dependent on Perry for financial stability. Rounding out the group is Rebecca’s younger sister Lisa (Kelly Stables), a kindergarten teacher who tries to hurt men before they can hurt her.

Romantically Challenged is executive produced by Ricky Blitt. James Burrows is executive producer and director. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television.
