ABC is developing undocumented Iranian family comedy Americanized from producer Reese Witherspoon

The Hollywood Reporter

Americanized, based on iZombie writer Sara Saedi's memoir of the same name, "tells the story of a loving and off-beat Iranian family who has been living with a huge secret: they’re undocumented immigrants. Told through an irreverent, heartfelt and apolitical lens, the series will give viewers a window into the life of a Middle-Eastern household while exploring the universal truths that bond every type of 'American' family." Saedi will pen the pilot script for the series and serve as executive producer.
