ABC has announced a series order for a now-untitled project based on Gimlet Media’s podcast Start Up, starring Scrubs star Zach Braff.
With Braff at the center, the pilot formerly known as Start Up was long considered a lock for ABC’s schedule.
The project revolves around a successful radio journalist, husband and father (Braff) who decides to do something wild — quit his job and start his own podcasting company.
ABC will announce its full fall schedule on Tuesday, May 16.
