ABC has added a comedy from Latinx “The Good Place” writer Chris Encell to its slate.
The network has put into development “Borderline,” a single-cam which also hails from in-house studio ABC Signature and “The Office” producer Danny Chun.
“Borderline” centers around goody two-shoes Steve, who falls for reckless Maria. Their whirlwind romance is cut short when she gets deported. Now they must decide whether to bail on the potential love of their lives or take a leap of faith and get married. The show’s central question is, can two completely different people who barely know each other live happily ever after? Its answer: “Absolutely not, but they’re going to try.”
Encell is serving as writer and executive producer, with Chun on board as a non-writing exec producer. Beyond writing on two seasons of NBC’s “The Good Place,” Encell also co-produces the Netflix teen comedy-drama “On My Block.
