Television is behind the hour with Katie Lovejoy executive producing and Culver as a co-executive producer. (Deadline.com)

FOX Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television are behind the half-hour with Brownstone Productions' Elizabeth Banks and Max Handelman also executive producing and Dannah Shinder as a co-executive producer. (Deadline.com)
