ABC continues to explore expanding its long-running family comedy series via spinoffs according to Deadline. The latest to develop an offshoot is Fresh Off the Boat, which is heading into its sixth season.
The potential spinoff, written by Fresh Off the Boat writer-producer Rachna Fruchbom, is in early stages of development at FOTB studio 20th Century Fox TV, now part of Disney Television Studios. Dels for the project are still being hammered out, and it is yet to be pitched to ABC.
Playing off the title, the offshoot is said to feature a new immigrant family, likely from another country. Fruchbom, who is under an overall deal at 20th TV, would be writing and executive producing. FOTB executive producers Jake Kasdan and Melvin Mar also are expected to serve as exec producers
