Zack Gottsagen & Criminal to Lead ABC Baseball Comedy With Pilot Production Commitment

Plenty of room for legal shenanigans in a baseball comedy I guess.

No rules no consequences EatTheRich

It probably would have landed at Lifetime on its merits, but a generous donation to Disney got it early admission on ABC.

White privilege. A few hrs in jail and she already has a role.

They woulda called it Varsity Blues, but not only was the name already taken... it was just too soon... like her staring in this show.

Glad to see white crimes have no personal consequences
