Game on! The CW is developing a revival of its football-themed series The Game, according to our sister site Deadline.
While The Game was a half-hour comedy during its initial run on The CW, the new series will reportedly be a one-hour dramedy, with original creator Mara Brock Akil (Being Mary Jane) returning to pen the series, along with Devon Greggory (Underground), who will serve as showrunner. It’ll be set in Baltimore, rather than the original’s San Diego, with plans for original cast members to return.
