Ally Walker Gets a 'Life' for ABC Former "Profiler" star Ally Walker has landed a new gig as a single mom searching for Mr. Right in a new comedy pilot for ABC.
"My Wonderful Life" is based on a British series about a single mother struggling to balance her career and family, while looking for a romantic partner, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The pilot is being written by Jenji Kohan and executive produced by Suzanne Bukinik for Touchstone TV and Granada TV
The single mother will work in a blue-collar job and the show will focus on lower-middle-class working people.
"There's a lot of humor in her struggling just to make it and that was very appealing to me, especially with a female lead that is a strong, independent person," says Kohan. ABC has also given the greenlight to two other family comedy pilots told from the husband's point of view; "What Leonard Comes Home To" from Brad Grey TV and Touchstone and an untitled pilot from Touchstone TV and NBC studios from writer Michael Jacobs ("Boy Meets World"). "What Leonard Comes Home To" examines married life from a husband's point of view, while the project is from Jacobs centers on a workaholic husband and father who strives to reconnect with his family.
