EXCLUSIVE: ABC and Milojo Productions announced today the development of a new half hour comedy series, The Sanchez Way, produced through Milojo’s first-look deal with ABC Studios.
Writer Isaac Gonzalez (Legends of Chamberlain Heights, Mr. Iglesias) joins Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos, and Albert Bianchini as the show’s executive producers from Milojo.
The Sanchez Way is an irreverent comedy about a loud, proud, Mexican-American family that lives by a very strict working class code. Show centers on Pedro Sanchez, the patriarch of the family, whose code is threatened when his “fresa” brother-in-law (a Mexican yuppie) moves to town and wants to be part of the family.
Milojo Productions is represented by CAA and attorney Jake Levy with Franklin Weinrib Rudell & Vassallo P.C.
