LEARNING TO FLY (ABC)
DEVELOPMENT HISTORY:
12/14/05 - 10/5/09
STATUS:
previously in development (2006-2007 season)
DEVELOPMENT STAGE:
ordered to pilot
DESCRIPTION:
(from ABC's press release) Do you ever feel trapped by the career choices you've made? Do you feel like there's an enormous gap between who you are, and who you thought you'd be? Do you ever just want to turn your life upside down and do something totally radical before it's too late? Danny Carter has done just that. When he bumps into Sam, a girl he once new from high school, she is very disappointed that the great, charismatic, inspiring person Danny used to be has become a total sell-out. Something clicks. Re-awakened by this chance encounter to what life could have been...and what it can still be...Danny quits his high-powered job to begin pursuing the things he's always dreamed of achieving. Starting off by re-connecting with Sam and some other friends he'd been neglecting, Danny is beginning to map out a new path in life...one that will be full of challenges and fear, but ultimately, a million times more rewarding than playing it safe. Actor Danny Comden (I'm with Her) takes one huge leap to create his first comedy, a personal story that's as crazy as he is. Because if he grabs the bull of life by the horns, wherever it takes him will be far more interesting than if he never tried.
