EXCLUSIVE: Fox is developing El Patio, a multi-camera comedy from writer Danny Fernandez (iCarly), Roselyn Sanchez and Eric Winter’s Two For The Road Entertainment, Aaron Kaplan’s Kapital Entertainment and Fox Entertainment.

Written by Fernandez, El Patio follows a group of mostly Latin neighbors of all ages, races and walks of life, who welcome a new neighbor, Gabriel Suarez, into their small Miami apartment building. Gabriel, a Mexican-American from Texas, always knew that life in Miami would be different, but he never expected that his neighbors’ cultural differences would be an almost-constant source of conflict and comedy.
