CBS is developing Brutally Honest, a single-camera comedy starring and executive produced by Ashley Tisdale inspired by her life. The CBS Studios-produced project marks a Carol’s Second Act reunion as it is written/executive produced by Sarah Haskins and Emily Halpern, creators of the multi-camera CBS/CBS Studios comedy that starred Patricia Heaton and co-starred Tisdale.
Brutally Honest, which stems from Haskins and Halpern’s overall deal at CBS Studios, is a comedy about how having a baby can ruin, save, change, destroy and inspire your marriage…all before lunch.
