NBC Buys Coming-Of-Age Comedy From Kourtney Kang, Nahnatchka Khan, and Fred Savage as Put Pilot

Wonder Years, but from the perspective of a mixed teenage girl from Philly?

A lot of sitcom forces are coming together here as Fresh Off The Boat creator Nahnatchka Khan and co-executive producer Kourtney Kang are teaming up with Kevin Arnold Fred Savage to make a new coming-of-age comedy that follows Kang’s experiences as a girl in a mixed-race family in the Philadelphia suburbs.

NBC seems to have just checked the boxes for both diversity and nostalgia in one fell swoop.
