Atlanta on TV
I often complain to my wife about how there's never been a tv show that takes place in the South that doesn't beat the viewer over the head with idiosyncratic Southernness. The stereotypical South is always a major character in every such show I can think of. That might change, though, as apparently ABC is developing a new sitcom that follows the lives of singles living in modern-day Atlanta. Instead of featuring your typical sexy young TV twentysomethings, though, it'll star the GEICO cavemen. This sounds like an Unrealized Script.
