ABC Renews 11 TV Shows, Cancels 5, & Announces 1 Is Ending in 2022 (So Far)

ABC has passed on its half-hour pilot Josep, starring comedian Jo Koy. While ABC is not proceeding with the existing pilot, the network brass want to get a comedy headlined by Koy on the air.

It is too early to say whether that will happen and whether the current creative team will remain involved but the intent is to stay in business with Koy.
