LBS November 7, 2018 Share November 7, 2018 (edited) WOO HOO!!! Quote Here’s some alright news: ABC’s Tuesday comedy block isn’t splitting up anytime soon. The Alphabet Network has given full-season orders to freshman sitcom The Kids Are Alright, as well as sophomore series Splitting Up Together, TVLine has learned. We hear that nine additional episodes of Kids have been ordered, along with five more episodes of Splitting. https://tvline.com/2018/11/07/abc-full-season-orders-splitting-up-together-the-kids-are-alright/#more-999019 Edited November 7, 2018 by LBS 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73637-i-can-see-for-miles-the-kids-are-alright-in-the-media/#findComment-4816837

sigmaforce86 February 21, 2019 Share February 21, 2019 This is from TV Line "Matt's Inside Line". Putting it in spoiler tag just in case but it's just a hint about how an upcoming episode (possibly the season finale?) will highlight a popular 70's TV show. Seems like it's more than just the Cleary's will be watching said popular show on their TV.... but if so trying to figure out how they're going to work that into the plot in a realistic way. Still I was a fan of said show at the time and it definitely peaks my interest! Spoiler I’m loving The Kids Are Alright. Any hints about what’s coming up? — Barbara Before the ’70s-set ABC comedy wraps its freshman season, it’s going to be staging a crossover of a sort with a popular series from the era in which it takes place. Your hints about which one are as follows: 1) The program in question was also on ABC. 2) Its teenage-dream star caused many a viewer to gasp, “I think I love you.” 3) Said teenage dream was David Cassidy. In other words — that’s right — the Cleary clan is mixing it up with The Partridge Family. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73637-i-can-see-for-miles-the-kids-are-alright-in-the-media/#findComment-5071755

It would be fucking hilarious (and not out of typical Hollywood casting) for a 12-year old Timmy to try and play an 7 or 8 year old. It'd be like that episode of the Brady Bunch where 12-year old Cindy tries to act like Shirley Temple and no one comments on how bizarre it is to see a 12-year old trying to act 7. The show being set in Los Angeles adds a lot of possibilities.

And for Life in Pieces, just a post announcing the cancellation, no comments at all so far. But TKAA has 3 separate threads with unanimous oh-no! sentiments.

It’s an ABC/Disney show and they own a majority of Hulu currently because of the Fox deal so it would have been secured before the announcement of cancellation and if the studio wasn’t willing to make the numbers work for their own network/streaming it’s not going to be viable for Netflix. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73637-i-can-see-for-miles-the-kids-are-alright-in-the-media/#findComment-5282919
