As part of a new overall deal with Universal Television, Spitzer will move on to develop new series for the studio.
Management at Store 1217 isn’t the only change at Superstore: Series creator Justin Spitzer will step aside as showrunner ahead of Season 5, TVLine has learned.
Added Spitzer, “I’m excited to develop new projects with Pearlena and everyone else at Universal Television, which has been my home for the last 13 years.
Meanwhile, Gabe and Jonathan have been running Superstore with me from the beginning, and there’s no one I have more faith in to continue guiding it into the future.”
